{{BQuote|I've forgotten how peaceful Vestal can be. Everyone is so happy and carefree. Well, I guess that's about to change.|'''Hydron'''|color = brown|''[[Revenge of the Vexos]]''}}
Prince {{nihongo|'''Hydron'''|ハイドロン|Haidoron}} is a major antagonist in ''[[Bakugan Battle Brawlers: New Vestroia]]''. He is introduced in the first arc as [[Zenoheld|King Zenoheld's]] only son, the Prince of [[Vestal]], the leader of [[New Vestroia]], and the commander of the [[Vexos]]. He possessed the petrified statues of five of the Six Soldiers that saved [[Vestroia]]: [[Tigrerra]], [[Gorem]], [[Preyas (Marucho Marukura)|Preyas]], [[Skyress]], and [[Hydranoid]]. His initial goal in the first half of the season was to "complete his collection" by getting his hands on [[Drago (Dan Kuso)|Drago]].
In the second arc, after [[Spectra Phantom|Spectra]] and [[Gus Grav|Gus]]' defection, Hydron became the Vexos' new Subterra brawler, using [[Dryoid]] as his [[Guardian Partner Bakugan]]. He quickly proves to be a powerful brawler in his own right—but his successes are short-lived as Vexos begins to fracture from within.
==Appearance==
The only thing he ever displays a tender care for is [[Dryoid]]; he believes in Dyroid's ability to overcome Zenoheld's [[Farbros]]' Land Pressure, and Dryoid in turn seems to be capable of some degree of partnership despite being a Mechanical Bakugan.<ref name="heir">"[[An Heir To Spare]]"</ref>
Like his father, he is shown not to take slights well: he freaks out upon losing to [[Volt Luster]], and uses a [[Death Bombs|Death Bomb]] to "win" by removing Volt from existence.<ref name="volt">"[[Volt's Revolt]]"</ref> However, Hydron despises those that acknowledge him only for being Zenoheld's son, or the implication that he is weaker than his father, which Gus takes advantage of to goad him into a fight.<ref name="ultimate">"[[Ultimate Weapon]]"</ref>
In spite of this, most of Hydron's actions are largely motivated by a desire to be acknowledged by his father and prove his worth. When Zenoheld brushes off Hydron's accomplishments and tells him to stop bothering him, Hydron reaches his tipping point. He ultimately decides to oppose his father, even going as far as to ensure Zenoheld's death at the cost of his own life.
In between the first and second arcs, the royal family and the Vexos were forced to abandon Vestal after Mira, [[Ace Grit|Ace]], and [[Baron Leltoy|Baron]] revealed the truth behind Bakugan and exposed their crimes. Although his royal title was stripped away as a result, Hydron didn't seem terribly resentful about it.
After this, Hydron becomes the Vexos' new Subterra brawler while his father became its Pyrus brawler. His first mission sent him to Vestal to get the [[Haos#Legacy|Haos]] [[Attribute Energies|attribute energy]] for the [[Bakugan Termination System]]. Though he took his sweet time doing so, even going out of his way to buy sunglasses, he challenged Baron to a brawl for the Haos Energy, who readily agreed. He quickly showed off his brawling prowess by swiftly defeating [[Saint Nemus]] and [[Piercian]] with only Dryoid.<ref>"[[Revenge of the Vexos]]"</ref>
Upon his return to the [[Vexos Motherpalace]], Mylene chides him for not working on his stealth, afraid he may have alerted the other Brawlers. However, he shrugs it off as her jealousy towards him for claiming the first attribute. Though she was angered by this, she didn't question him further.
He develops the plan to lure Dan and the rest of the Resistance back to Earth by having [[Shadow Prove]] defeat [[Alice Gehabich]]. This way, Hydron would be able to defeat Dan and take the Pyrus energy.<ref>"[[Shadow Attack]]"</ref> Though Shadow succeeds in defeating Alice despite [[Chan Lee]]'s assistance, the plan doesn't ''exactly'' come to fruition, and Hydron and Shadow instead face [[Marucho Marukura]], [[Preyas (Marucho Marukura)|Preyas]], and [[Minx Elfin]]. Though they technically lost, they succeeded in obtaining the [[Aquos (#Legacy)|Aquos]] energy from Elfin, much to Hydron's delight as he later gloats to himself over how irritated Mylene would be over his victories.<ref>"[[Elfin On the Run]]"</ref>
During the [[Bakugan Battle Brawlers Resistance|Resistance]]'s attack on the Motherpalace, he and Zenoheld battle Dan, Mira, and Spectra. Though he wins against Mira and knocks her unconscious, he loses against Dan and Spectra. Zenoheld carries the rest of the battle to victory and obtains the Pyrus energy, but [[Farbros]] was damaged in the process. Zenoheld becomes immensely angry at Hydron for his loss and grabs him by the collar, only becoming appeased after Mylene blames [[Clay Fermin]] for creating Dryoid with the weaknesses that lead to the failure.<ref name="BT" />

*He and [[Nurzak]] have slight similarities: both are Subterra brawlers who turn against their leaders and faced them alone in their first brawls. Both won the first round by using special tactics, but eventually were outmatched, and both joined the Brawlers in the final fight against said leaders.
