'''Monarus''' (Japanese version {{Nihongo|Fairy|フェアリー|Fearī}}) is a butterfly-like [[Bakugan]].
==Description==
===Bakugan.com===
Monarus is a Bakugan that resembles a butterfly. It is one of the fastest Bakugan thanks to its large wings and ultra light weight. It has the ability to fly beyond Gate Cards. Its enormous butterfly wings create a mighty hurricane wind to defeat opponents.
===Bakugan Official Handbook===
Don't let the pretty Monarus fool you. Just because this Bakugan resembles a butterfly with its beautiful wings doesn't mean it can't do real damage in a brawl.
===Bakugan Ultimate Handbook===
This Bakugan looks like a beautiful butterfly, but don't be fooled by its good looks. When it flaps its wings, it can create a mighty hurricane wind to blow its opponents away! Lightweight Monarus is a super fast flyer, and it can soar right over a Gate card to escape its effects.

* There are a variety of things about Monarus that change, such as, the ovals on the back of its wings sometimes vanish, they are also sometimes diamond-shaped, also the yellow is sometimes close together, or spread out, its head is sometimes smaller, sometimes one of its eyes is bigger than the other, and a few other things.
* In the DS version of the Video Game, a [[Pyrus]] Monarus is orange with red on the top screen, but it is red with orange on the touch screen, a [[Haos]] Monarus has a bit of an inverted color scheme and a [[Ventus]] Monarus appears normal, probably because it is Ventus in the anime.
* In the anime, Ventus Monarus has red eyes, but while in the game, it has yellow eyes.
* Monarus and [[Ravenoid]] are the only two minor Bakugan from season 1 that have an game exclusive evolution in season 2.
* Monarus' rising battle cry in the Wii video game sounds like something [[Sirenoid]] might make.
