Skytruss (スカイトラス, Sukaitorasu?) is a falcon-like Baku Sky Raider Bakugan, who combines with Jaakor and Orbeum to make Magmafury.

Official Description[edit]

American Official Website[edit]

A falcon-like Baku Sky Raider, Skytruss initiates his attack by circling his opponents from above. When enemies are most vulnerable, Skytruss swoops down with a speedy downward descent thrusting his sharp bladed claws to penetrate even the most heavily armored monsters. He combines with Jaakor and Orbeum to form Magmafury.

Bakugan: Mechtanium Surge[edit]

Skytruss in Bakugan form.

Skytruss made his debut in The Prodigal Bakugan with Orbeum, in which they tried to convince Jaakor to return to New Vestroia with them. He is the supposed brother of Orbeum and student of Jaakor. He later fought alongside Orbeum, Shun and Jaakor against Stronk and Spatterix. When the two Nonets fused, Skytruss fused with Orbeum and Jaakor to form Magmafury, who defeated Scorptak. He later went with Orbeum to New Vestroia.

He made another appearance in Enemy Allies, when Shun called him and Orbeum to help Shun in battle against Wiseman. Although he combined with Jaakor and Orbeum to form Magmafury, he lost to Mechtavius Destroyer.

He appeared in Countdown to Doomsday to battle against Wiseman and the Nonets and combines once again with Jaakor and Orbeum to form Magmafury. He ends up losing again to the Mechtogan Coredegon, Slycerak, Exostriker, and Mandibor.

He appeared in The Eve of Extermination to battle against Wiseman and the Nonets again. This time, combined into Magmafury and even though Wiseman summoned the Mechtogan, he wins thanks to the help to the newly created Mechtogan Thorak and Flytris.

He appeared in Enemy Infiltration with Orbeum searching Wiseman's hideout and found out that Slycerak, Exostriker, and Mandibor have been completely resurrected from Wiseman and the Nonets. They send a type of ancient message back to the Battle Brawlers and before Jaakor started to read the message, Shun revealed that he sent Skytruss and Orbeum on a stealth mission to spy on Wiseman. Later on, he battled against the three resurrected Mechtogan and combined with Orbeum and Jaakor into Magmafury. He lost due to the incredible powers of the three Mechtogan.

He appeared in Gunz Lives when Shun summoned him and Orbeum to fight against the Nonets before Wiseman revealed his true identity which was Coredegon this entire time and defeats all of the Brawlers' Bakugan in one strike

In Evil Evolution, he fought against Mechtavius Destroyer and combined into Magmafury, alongside Duomechtra and Betakor, but lost and was banished to the Doom Dimension alongside Dan and the other Brawlers after Gunz arrived with the Nonets.

In Beginning of the End, he and the Brawlers fought against Mechtavius Destroyer. He combines with Jaakor and Orbeum to form Magmafury but was defeated easily.

In End of the Line, he was seen watching Dragonoid Destroyer defeat Mechtavius Destroyer alongside the other brawlers.

Trivia[edit]

  • When it is open in ball form, it looks similar to Hawktor, Viper Helios, Storm Skyress, and Foxbat.
  • Originally intended for Bakugan Dimensions, it was the first Baku Sky Raider pictured with a DNA Code.
  • It is the second Bakugan that can talk to animals (though, he talk to birds in a deleted scene in Countdown to Doomsday), the first one being Preyas, which he proclaimed himself as a "cat whisperer".
  • Skytruss is said to appear in BakuTech! Bakugan as 'Jump Familiy' (ジャンプ族, Janpu-zoku?), but the name of the family is not mentioned in the manga.[1]
