'''Preyas''', {{Nihongo|'''Predator'''|プレデター|Puredetā}} in the Japanese version, is a humanoid chameleon-like [[Bakugan]], who is able to change his [[attributeAttribute]]. Initially Preyas has the [[Aquos (#Legacy)|Aquos]] attribute, but can change into [[Darkus (#Legacy)|Darkus]] or [[Subterra]], then back to Aquos. He is [[Marucho Marukura]]'s [[Partner Bakugan]] in ''[[Bakugan Battle Brawlers]]'' and in ''[[Bakugan: New Vestroia]]'' from episode 26. He does not evolve similar to his ''Battle Brawlers'' counterparts, but instead asexually produced an offspring: [[Preyas II (Marucho Marukura)|Preyas II]].

===[[Bakugan Battle Brawlers]]Major Appearances===[[Marucho Marukura]]'s Guardian Bakugan is an Aquos Preyas. Marucho obtained Preyas when he crashes Marucho's house party and he uses him to brawl the [[JJ Dolls]] [[Jenny]] and [[Jewls]]. Once he shows he can [[Special Attack|change]] his [[Attribute]] he is able to help defeat them with ease. He later battles against [[Skyress]] alongside Tigrerra. However, despite their power they easily lose to her. He is the one who spills to [[Dan]] about [[Runo]] and [[Marucho]] going to [[Shun]]'s house, making everyone very angry at each other and [[Tigrerra]] angry at Preyas. He later goes with Marucho and the other brawlers to search for the [[Infinity Core]]. After stepping on a switch in the lab the brawlers see a video diary left by [[Michael Gehabich]], which shows how [[Vestroia]] started collapsing and how the Bakugan came to Earth. After receiving an email from [[Klaus von Hertzon]], Marucho battles him but is defeated as Preyas is sent to the [[Doom Dimension]] by [[Sirenoid]] which makes [[Marucho]] very sad especially after Marucho was so worried about Preyas being sent to the Doom Dimension before he went into battle. Somehow Klaus retrieved him from the Doom Dimension to battle [[Marucho]], [[Runo]], and [[Dan]]. Klaus overuses Preyas in this battle to upset Marucho but through a combo they defeat him, changing him back to his normal self and using the Ability Card '''Pure Light''' to return him to Marucho. After Dan and Drago get sucked into the Doom Dimension he loses the battle on purpose like the others to go and save them. After finding them they encounter the Six Ancient Warriors and are put through a test to make them evolve. When Marucho has to fight an illusionary version of himself, he gets angry almost costing him the battle because he hated his old self. But once Preyas was able to convince him that he shouldn't hate himself he is able to evolve into [[Preyas II]] during Marucho's battle with [[Frosch]]. After returning from the Doom Dimension he battles Drago so he can evolve. Although he and Angelo/Diablo are able to put up a good fight they still lose the battle. In the anime Preyas has a very unique and strange personality. He is afraid of battle often trying to run in the middle of a fight (like in the battle against [[Saurus]] in episode 7). He is also always pulling jokes, many of which are disrespectful and make people angry. For instance, one time in the series he changed to the wrong [[attribute]] ([[Darkus (Legacy)|Darkus]] instead of [[Haos (Legacy)|Haos]]), which made Marucho upset. These jokes are mostly about what is around him and differ between the Japanese and Canadian version due to cultural differences. ; Ability Cards* '''Blue Stealth''': Nullifies the opponent's [[Gate Card]] and transfers 50 [[Gs]] from the opponent to Preyas.* '''Water Refrain''': Nullifies and blocks the opponent's abilities from activating for a short time.* '''Dive Mirage''': Moves Preyas to any different Gate Card, making the Gate Card he goes on nullified.* '''Aquos Quadruple Chain Attack - Blue Lagoon Force Gate Special''' (requires 4 Aquos Bakugan on your team to activate) ===[[Bakugan: New Vestroia]]===Prior to being captured, he met [[Elfin]] and trained her how to fight. He also protected the [[Wontu]] and flirted with Elfin a lot. He was previously stuck as a statue in [[Prince Hydron]]'s palace, but he eventually joins back up with Marucho when the gang free them of their statue form. Based on Drago's statement of the capture of the other Six Fighting Bakugan, it is implied that Preyas was the first to be captured. It is unknown what happened to Preyas Angelo/Diablo. They are presumed to be in [[New Vestroia]]. After he was freed he returned to Earth with (Marucho and Elfin. After talking with Marucho about how he should have had the Aquos [[Attribute Energy]] since he was worried about Elfin's safety. Elfin overheard it but thought it was out of jealousy and in a huff Elfin left the safety of the mansion and was almost taken by [[Shadow Prove]] and Prince Hydron without even having to battle but Preyas rescued her. Marukura)|Preyas said he was a "cat whisperer" and he talked to the cat that found Elfin first. He and [[Minx Elfin]] battled against [[Dryoid]] and [[MAC Spider]]. However Elfin was still mad at him but after explaining what he said that she didn't hear they made up in the middle of their battle. After Elfin sacrifices herself to save Preyas and loses the Aquos [[Attribute Energy]] in the process, Preyas, in a mad frenzy, defeats Shadow and Hydron, and declares it to be for his "precious, little Elfin." After the battle when Elfin brings it up he starts to deny it and they started arguing again. However, during the battle against the Alternative, Preyas rescues Elfin and Marucho, the former of the two proclaiming him "my hero" and later after breaking into the alternative, she is shown resting against Preyas whom they along with Marucho remained behind to guard the rear while the rest continued on to the power generator. He, along with the Brawlers and [[Gus]] battle the Alternative. Later they destroy it. After that he, Elfin, and Vulcan evacuated the area with Marucho and Gus. Sometime in the weeks between the Alternative's destruction and Bakugan Interspace being repaired, Preyas returned to New Vestroia along with Elfin, Ingram, Tigrerra, Gorem, and Hydranoid. ; Ability Cards* '''Blue Squall '''(''Blue Whirlwind''): Subtracts 200 Gs from each opponent.* '''Side Formation''': Nullifies the opponent's ability and prevents the opponent's Gate Card from opening.

(Aquos) ===[[Bakugan: Mechtanium Surge]]===In ''[[Return to New Vestroia]]'', An Aquos Preyas is shown training a Bakugan named [[Amazon]]. Preyas was happy to see Dan and Drago and asked if [[Marucho]] had come partnered with them, but was slightly saddened when Dan told them Marucho stayed on Earth. After some convincing from Preyas, Dan allows Amazon to brawl against Drago. Later Preyas tells Amazon that Drago is holding back so Drago uses his power and faints. Later Preyas and Amazon leave Drago and Dan. He also seems to wonder what is wrong with Drago and what they are going to do. He appeared in ''[[Chaos Control]]'', talking to Drago and trying to encourage him. Later, [[Anubias]] comes along and challenges Drago. After Drago gets beaten down easily, Preyas steps in. He puts up a decent fight against Anubias' [[Chaos Bakugan]], but is defeated easily by [[Venexus]] and is mercilessly shot at. Later, he and Amazon hold off Venexus until [[Zenthon]] finishes him off. He then comments that are still a few things to work out with Drago's new powers and they will be there to help him saying "That's what friends are for." He and Amazon were seen briefly on New Vestoria in ''[[The Final Takedown]]'' after the [[Dark Moon]] was destroyed. While introducing Marucho's new Bakugan [[RadizenMarukura]] in ''[[Evil Arrival]]'' Dan says that Radizen has a habit of trashtalking his opponents and making humorous remarks much like many of Marucho's past partners, referring to Preyas among several other Bakugan. In ''[[Blast From the Past]]'', he appeared along with an army of Bakugan trying to protect New Vestroia from [[Mechtavius Destroyer]], having been informed by the remaining Battle Brawlers that Mechtavius Destroyer was heading to New Vestroia. When Amazon was destroyed, Elfin jumped forward to make an attack on Mechtavius Destroyer, but she was destroyed as well, which saddened Preyas. Preyas was later killed after [[Taylean]], [[Master Ingram]], and [[Storm Skyress]] were killed. Because the Brawlers used the [[Current of Time]] to go back before Mechtavius Destroyer killed him, he is now either living peacefully on New Vestroia or has reunited with Marucho. '''Ability Card (Bakugan Video Game)'''* '''Blue Stealth''': Adds 200 Gs to Preyasfranchise.
