The [[List of Bakugan Dimensions Terms]] was a A list of common terms used on in ''[[Bakugan Dimensions]]''.

==Cooldown==Cooldowns are found most special abilities, and ability cannot be reused until its turn counter has finished. Most abilities have three-turn cooldowns, though some have two-turn cooldowns and two abilities have no cooldown at all: [[Merciless Strikes]] and [[Machine Gun]]. ==DamageCalculations==[[File:Basic_attack.png|thumb|120px|The Basic Attack, which is a key factor in determining damage.]]Damage is how a player wins a brawl. There are two ways to deal damage: Attacks and Counter-Attacks. Damage is measured in four different measurements: Weak, Light, Heavy , and Mega. ===Weak===Weak Damage is the lowest amount of damage that can be done. It is equal to half your [[Basic Attack]], and if it's a [[#Stats|stat-based]] Weak Attack, it draws solely from the chosen stat. *(ex. Weak Agility attack = [Agility stat]) ===Light===Light Damage is the most common amount of damage, and is equal to your Basic Attack. A stat-based Light Attack will equal <code>[Weak Damage] + [Stat Amount]</code>.

*(ex. Light Willpower attack ===Weak Damage===Weak Damage is the lowest + [amount of damage that can be done. Two Weak Damage attacks equal one Light Damage attack. Three equal one Heavy Attack and four equal one Mega Attack.Willpower])

===Light DamageHeavy===Light Heavy Damage is the most common amount your basic attack + 1/2 of your basic attack. If it is a stat-based attack, it deals damage. It equals two Weak Attacks. Two Light Damage attacks equal one Mega attackto <code>Basic Attack + [Stat Amount]</code>.

===*(ex. Heavy Damage=Strength attack ==Heavy Light Damage is the second-most powerful type + [Amount of damage. Very few Battle Gear/BakuNano/Special abilities equal that much damage without being a fast attack.Strength])

===Mega Damage===Mega Damage is the most powerful type of damage. The only Battle Gear/BakuNano/Special ability that can deal Mega Damage It is equal to your <code>Basic Attack + Weak Attack + [[Blade Spinamount of Strength]] without an extra move</gate code> (and is the only damage type to make it more powerfuldraw solely from one stat; the others can vary).

==Cooldown==Cooldown Mega Damage is required for most special abilities. It means you can't use that ability again until it is "cooled down". Abilities usually have a Cooldown of three turns. Special abilities like only available in [[Mystic SpearSubterra]] and [[Multi-Weapon AttackFighting Styles]] have Cooldowns of two turns and the only two special abilities that don't require Cooldown are . However, many other attacks like [[Merciless StrikesBurning Revenge]] and [[Machine GunTyphoon Strike]]can reach Mega Damage under certain circumstances.

[[G-Power]] is different on in ''Bakugan Dimensions '' works differently than it does in the Anime[[G-Power|anime]]. It Here, it shows how powerful of attacks an attack a Bakugan can use. For example, if a Bakugan has 640 Gs, they can use abilities as high as level 600. ==Moves==Moves are abilities that you can have your Bakugan perform in battle. Each Fighting Style consists of certain abilities, or cards that fall into the following types: Attack, Defense, Gate, or Command. Some abilities are capable of changing types after use, a tactic employed particularly by [[Darkus (Legacy)|Darkus]] Moves. ===Lost Moves===The term "Lost Moves" was coined by players to describe Moves that were either purchasable or were used by certain NPCs, but were never used by any Fighting Style. As a result, these Moves never saw use by players despite existing in the game. The following are Lost Moves: *{{attribute|Pyrus|desc=no}} [[Burning Spite]]*{{attribute|Pyrus|desc=no}} [[Flame Wreath]]*{{attribute|Pyrus|desc=no}} [[Uncontrolled Explosion]]*{{attribute|Darkus|desc=no}} [[Cloak of Night]]*{{attribute|Darkus|desc=no}} [[Heart of Darkness]]*{{attribute|Darkus|desc=no}} [[Shadowburst]]*{{attribute|Haos|desc=no}} [[Reactive Barrage]]*{{attribute|Haos|desc=no}} [[Siphon Energy]]*{{attribute|Haos|desc=no}} [[Uncontrolled Explosion]]*{{attribute|Subterra|desc=no}} [[Boulder Toss]]*{{attribute|Subterra|desc=no}} [[Earthquake]]*{{attribute|Ventus|desc=no}} [[Swirling Breeze]]*{{attribute|Aquos|desc=no}} [[Liquid Form]]*{{attribute|Aquos|desc=no}} [[Submerge]]*{{attribute|Aquos|desc=no}} [[Wave Crest]]

Stats There are three stats that are used to measure how powerful a Bakugan's attack can be: Agility, Life, Strength, and Willpower. ===Agility===[[File:Agility.PNG|thumb|Agility]]The more Agility you have, the higher the chances of Dodge Back or Interrupt Defense succeeding. Stats are measured Certain attacks and [[Battle Gear]] can boost Agility, and it is naturally higher in [[StrengthVentus (Legacy)|Ventus]] and [[Aquos (Legacy)|Aquos]] [[Bakugan]], while [[Subterra]]'s have the least amount of Agility. ===Life===[[File:Life.PNG|thumb|Life]]Life (also known as Health) is measured depending on how much [[G-Power]]a Bakugan in battle has, as well as by their attribute. Subterra and Colossus Bakugan naturally have the most amount of Life, while Ventus Bakugan have the least. In brawls, a Bakugan is defeated when its Life falls to zero through attacks or moves that cost them Life. [[WillpowerHaos (Legacy)|Haos]] Bakugan can regain Life by using certain Defenses, Gates, or Attacks. Some support pieces can also add more life to a Bakugan. While almost all ''Mechtanium Surge'' Bakugan have higher Life, some exchange it for lower G-Powers. ===Strength===[[File:Strength.PNG|thumb|Strength]]Strength can be given by all [[attribute]]s but [[Haos (Legacy)|Haos]], boosted by Battle Gear, or boosted by the move card [[Bolster]].  For example, a Bakugan can have 500 [[Gs]] and about 187 Strength. If they use an attack that says "Light Strength Attack", it will be their Strength level plus 170, as that is the amount of damage for a weak attack at level 500. ===Willpower===[[File:Will.PNG|thumb|Willpower]][[Darkus (Legacy)|Darkus]] and [[Haos (Legacy)|Haos]] [[Bakugan]] usually have more Willpower than the other [[Attribute]]s. Certain [[Battle Gear]] also boost the Willpower stat. Darkus and Haos [[Fighting Styles|styles]] mainly focus on Willpower. Willpower's symbol is that of a bald head.
