Information[edit]
Description[edit]
Destrakon Gear has a triple strike attack. The sharp pincers cut up an opponent's swords and then the arms wrap around them to nullify their abilities. The arms can split apart and attack from three different angles confusing the enemy. The body core is capable of ramming an opponent.

Trivia[edit]
- Destrakon Gear is similar to Orochi, a Japanese myth creature with eight heads, the eighth head being that of Rubanoid when combined.
- Destrakon Gear is also a good reminder of the Hydra, a giant sea snake with nine heads (even though the gear only has 7 heads)
- Equipped with Destrakon Gear, Rubanoid is the only Generation 1 Bakugan besides Exedra and Phosphos to have more than three heads.
- Destrakon Gear can also stand for 'destruction gear'.
- Its Japanese name is 'Gidora Gear', referring to King Ghidorah, Godzilla's greatest arch-enemy.
- The anime depicts the gear as being translucent to match Rubanoid, but it was never released in translucent in the physical game.
