I am ready to serve you whenever the time comes, Master Barodius.
Dharak to Barodius, Confrontation


Dharak (ダラク, Daraku?), also called Dharaknoid (ダラクノイド, Darakunoido?), was a four-legged dragon-like Bakugan. He is the direct descendant of the Original Dharaknoid, one of two original Bakugan created by Code Eve. His Battle Gear is AirKor.

In the Bakugan anime, he makes his first cameo in the finale of Bakugan Battle Brawlers: New Vestroia in the video Professor Clay Fermin receives the video transmissons of Neathian-Gundalian War. In Bakugan: Gundalian Invaders, he serves as the Guardian Bakugan of Barodius, the emperor of Gundalia, and was amused with his master's behavior. After losing to Dan Kuso and Drago at the end of the season in his Phantom Dharak form, he and Barodius attempt to claim the Sacred Orb's power for themselves anyways, causing them to be imprisoned and mutated in a separate dimension by Code Eve. The two return in the next season, mutated into Razenoid and Mag Mel, respectively.

Information

Bakugan.com

Gundalia's strongest Bakugan and the partner of Emperor Barodius. He is from the same lineage as Drago and has inherited the DNA of the biological makeup of one of the two original Bakugan. He projects a dark energy blast from his mouth to devastate his opponents and only Emperor Barodius can bring out the best of his abilities.

Bakugan Dimensions

Dharak is from the same lineage as Drago, so he has inherited the DNA of the most powerful biological makeup of the Ancient Bakugan. He can blast energy from his mouth to devastate his opponents.[1]

Personably

Dharak's rivalry with Drago mirrors the latter's former rivalry with Alpha Hydranoid and Helios MK2 in the first two series, but unlike them, Dharak can't be turned good, as he only serves Emperor Barodius and the Twelve Orders of Gundalia. Also, his voice does not sound as sinister as Hydranoid's or Helios', having a calmer tone to that deep serious voice like Hydranoid when he first appeared. His personality also appears to be similar to his brawling partner, Barodius, being devious, quiet and hot-tempered.

Anime

Bakugan Battle Brawlers: New Vestroia

In Final Fury, he was shown on a video that Professor Clay received from an unknown source, which was later revealed to be Fabia. He was at war alongside Lumagrowl, Strikeflier, Sabator, Lythirus, and Krakix. He also combined with his Battle Gear (AirKor) and defeated a large number of Neathian Bakugan such as Raptorix and Merlix.

Bakugan: Gundalian Invaders

Dharak in Bakugan form

Dharak makes his debut in a vision of Dan's, alongside Barodius fighting the Castle Knights Bakugan alongside the rest of the Twelve Orders Bakugan.[2]

He also appears in a flashback in Revelation when Ren tells the Battle Brawlers that Nethia invaded Gundlia.

Dharak appears briefly talking to Emperor Barodius with the emperor saying his services were not needed.[3]

He reappears in Exposed, in a flashback when Marucho Marukura and Ren Krawler were talking about the war between the Gundalians and the Neathians.

He appears by Barodius' side again, commenting that the human brawlers stolen from Earth were efficient.[4]

He appears once again talking about Drago possibly being tough for Linehalt to defeat on his own.[5]

When the Twelve Orders invade Neathia, he appears with Barodius ordering him to destroy the second shield. He battles on Neathia with the rest of the Twelve Orders Bakugan and uses Exokor to become Dharak Colossus for the first time. He uses his armor to destroy the Second Security Shield using Darkus waver. He also met Drago who was Lumino Dragonoid for the first time, calling him a "Worthless lizard." They end up battling with Dharak using thunder prob and knocking him down. Drago got back up and used Lumnio harmer which he countered by using thunder prob. Drago avoides the attack and comes up to Dhark asking if he will really take him down. The two Bakugan glare at each other ready to finsh the fight, but when they both get close to each other, a bright light (Code Eve) appeared, and all Gundalians were sent back to Gundalia. After returning to Gundlia Dhark tells Barodius that he thinks it is interesting that the light appeard before he fought Drago.[6]

In The Secret of the Orb, Kazarina tells him that when Exokor gets upgraded to class 2 than he can crush the second shield very easy. Dhark then asks how long will it take only to find out it will take 3 days to finish.

He battled against Sabator and his Battle Gear Chompixx. He lost in the first round due to Sabator using a Level 3 Class Battle Gear Ability Card but in the second round, he defeated Sabator, who managed to survive due to the Sacred Orb transferring him between dimensions.[7]

He attacks Sid Arkale because he escaped from Kazarina's Lab, which causes Sid to fall to his death trying to save Ren. When Dan tries to convince Ren to switch sides, he tells Dan that his efforts to turn Ren are useless, and to save his insults for the battlefield.[8]

He merges with his upgraded Colossus Armour to permanently destroy the restored Second Shield and ends up facing Lumino Dragonoid again. He easily defeats him and punctures a hole in the Second Shield. But before he can continue Ren switches sides and Linehalt attacks him.[9]

He detaches from his Colossus parts and then attached to AirKor to battle Ren and Linehalt. He won the first round but in the second round, Linehalt unleashed his Forbidden Power, causing Dragonoid Colossus to appear and stop the battle leaving it a draw.[10]

He appeared in a fantasy, where Nurzak tells that should Dragon fail Dragonoid Colossus' test he will be given the same test as well, being both capable of wielding the Sacred Orb. It is also revealed that he and Drago were direct descendants from the original Dharaknoid and Dragonoid. He appeared later again in a flashback.[11]

He battled Blitz Dragonoid, who used his Axator Gear and Jakalier. He defeated Jakalier and his Battle Gear (AirKor) defeated Blitz Dragonoid's Battle Gear (Axator Gear), though he later lost the battle to Drago. Barodius said he had never seen Dharak lose before[12]

He appeared talking to Emperor Barodius and Kazarina about Drago and his power.[13]

Kazarina successfully fused Blitz Dragonoid's DNA (Ultimate Warrior Gene) with Dharak's, which caused him to evolve into Phantom Dharak.[14]

Etymology

'Dharak' is derived from the Japanese for corruption[15], (daraku), which likely refers to Dharak's corrupted, power-hungry personality. Its Japanese name is also the same as the one mentioned, except that it is written in katakana.

'Dharak' may also derive from Zahhak,[16], an evil figure from Iranian mythology, which might refer to his purely-evil nature.
