'''Ventus''' refers to elemental power of wind in ''[[Bakugan Battle Brawlers]]'', and wind and earth in ''[[Battle Planet]]''. Bakugan that belong to Ventus have a wide variety of shapes, including [[Skyress|birds]] and [[Plitheon|dragons]].

'''Ventus''', {{Nihongo|'''Zephyros'''|ゼフィロス|Zefirosu}} in the Japanese version, is the [[attributeAttribute]] of wind found on [[BakuganVestroia]]. It exists in both the original system introduced in ''and present within [[Bakugan Battle Brawlers]]''. In ''Battle Planet'', due to the removal of Subterra, Ventus is now the attribute of nature/the Earth and the Wind.
The planet of Ventus is swift and silent yet within its borders lurks a vicious cycle that overwhelms intruders and punishes them for trespassing. Ventus Bakugan are fast and powerful like hurricane winds. Once their enemies are caught in the eye of the storm, they are defenseless against the Ventus' wrath.
====Gameplay====
[[File:Earlier_Japanese_Card_without_Ventus_attribute.jpg|thumb|An early Japanese Gate Card, notably lacking Ventus]]
Ventus-attributed Bakugan have average [[G-Power]]. Ventus-attributed Attributed Bakugan draw their power from cunning tactics. They think before they play. They choose their [[Ability Card]]s wisely, as the biggest boost is not always the best. They lure their opponent in by giving them the upper hand - then, just when their opponent is getting cocky, they spring their trap and come out victorious! With Ventus-attributed Attributed abilities such as Blow Away, Ventus Bakugan can turn the tides in any battle.
Ventus was developed later than the other five attributes Attributes (debuting at the same time as the ''Bakugan Battle Brawlers'' anime in Japan), so Ventus was not included in earlier Japanese/Korean [[Gate Card]]s. The Gate Bonus gained by a Ventus Bakugan standing on one such Gate Card is that of the next Attribute of opponent Bakugan as counted in the clockwise direction, according to [https://bakugan.wiki/images/8/89/Rulebook_v2.1-2-jp.JPG Bakugan Rulebook Ver.2.1]. For example, if the opponent Bakugan's Attribute is [[Haos#Legacy|Haos]], the Ventus Bakugan will take the Gate Bonus of [[Pyrus#Legacy|Pyrus]]; if the opponent Bakugan's Attribute is [[Subterra]], the Ventus Bakugan will take the Gate Bonus of [[Darkus#Legacy|Darkus]]. If the opponent Bakugan is also of Ventus Attribute, both Bakugan will take the Gate Bonus of Pyrus.
=====Attribute Relations=====
In ''[[Bakugan: Gundalian Invaders]]'', the Ventus color scheme is pale green with a white and blue trim. In ''[[Bakugan: Mechtanium Surge]]'', the Ventus color scheme is green and silver.

==Reboot==
[[File:Bbp ventus.png|21px]] {{Nihongo|'''Ventus'''|ベンタス|Bentasu}} is one of the six elemental [[Factions]] that Bakugan can belong to. It is the Faction of Earth and Wind, although it could be better categorized as the Faction of Nature. The region on [[Vestroia (RebootGeneration 2)|Vestroia]] where Ventus Bakugan reside is known as [[Ventana]].

{{BQuote|Ventus is the Faction of natural growth and decay and harnesses the power of nature to increase its [[Energy Card|energy]].

Among the Factions that have made a spiritual comeback from the original ''[[Bakugan Battle Brawlers]]'', Ventus has received the largest amount of changes and has been completely revamped from its legacy counterpart. It effectively merges merged the traits of the initial [[Ventus#Legacy|Ventus]] and discontinued [[Subterra]] [[Attribute|Attributes]], and contains aspects of both earth and wind under one universal classification. Ventus is now stylized as the Faction of growth, and the Bakugan belonging to it resonate the most with nature, exploiting abilities that allow them to assault their opponents with vicious quakes, gemstones, and turbulent gusts. As such, the variety of Bakugan within the faction now also contains terrestrial beings such as [[Trox (Generation 2)|tyrannosaurids]] and [[Maxotaur|minotaurs]].
====Color Scheme and Design====
Reinforcing their newfound association with nature and plant life, Ventus Bakugan in their ball form are primarily a saturated, earthy green in coloration, comparable to verdant foliage. They have secondary lime highlights, and their tertiary color is yellow, although the lime portions are peculiarly less prominent in their monster forms. Some members of the Ventus Faction, particularly [[Maxotaur]], have areas of brown incorporated into their design, and a few candidates such as [[Trox (Generation 2)|Trox]] have forest camouflage patterns, further emphasizing their affinity for flora. Like most Bakugan introduced in the ''[[Bakugan Battle Planet]]'' reboot, a few Ventus Bakugan contain areas of white, and black details located under their armor. Black is also represented as a quaternary color on Ventus Bakugan in sphere form beginning from the ''[[Geogan Rising]]'' set of products.
In ''[[Evolutions]]'' the color scheme of all Factions were completely changed. Ventus Bakugan during this set of products were a lime green with dark green and dark red as secondary highlights and yellow as an accent color.  The Ventus faction Faction symbol has been redesigned, and is printed on the top left of all Ventus Bakugan [[Character Cards]] and left of the type box on all other Ventus [[Ability Card (Generation 2)|Ability Cards]], starting from the ''[[Armored Alliance]]'' [[Card sets in Bakugan: Armored Alliance|card expansions]], on wards all Bakugan have the faction Symbol Printed on them as well , in addition to appearing as being depicted behind a watermark in the text box on cards. It appears as a leaf or insect like mask.
===Anime===
Ventus is utilized by one of the core members of the [[Awesome Brawlers]] in the ''[[Bakugan Battle Planet]]'', ''[[Armored Alliance]]'', and ''[[Geogan Rising]]'' animeseries: prank loving, tech-whiz [[Wynton Styles]]. There are several other characters who use the Faction as well, most of which are listed below:

Ventus is primarily paired with {{Attribute|Aquos2}} and {{Attribute|Haos2}} on [[Dual Faction Card|Dual Faction Cards]] and Faction exclusive [[BakuCore (Game piece)|BakuCore]] bonuses; conversely, Ventus Flip Cards usually defend against damage from Pyrus and Darkus. These paired Factions share exclusive Tag-Word Abilities: [[Boost]] for Ventus and Aquos, and [[Trifecta]] for Ventus and Haos. Boost provides bonuses if the player has seven or more Energy Cards in play, whereas Trifecta grants additional effects if there are three or more BakuCores attached to the player's Bakugan.
As of the ''[[Secrets of the Geogan]]'' [[Card sets in Bakugan: Geogan Rising|card expansion]], Dual Faction Cards have Ventus is also been implemented for Pyrus paired with {{Attribute|Pyrus2}} and Darkus{{Attribute|Darkus2}}, with two new keywords to coincide with them: [[Stoke]] for Ventus and Pyrus, and [[Scrounge]] for Ventus and Darkus. Stoke allows the player to copy a Stoke ability's effect for the cost of two Energy, whereas Scrounge allow the player to look at the top card of their deck. If the aforementioned card meets a listed requirement, they receive bonuses.
