'''Preyas''' (Japanese Version: {{Nihongo|Predator|プレデター|Puredetā}}) is a humanoid chameleon-like [[Bakugan]], who is able to change his [[attribute]]. Initially, Preyas has the [[Aquos]] attribute but can change into [[Darkus]] or [[Subterra]], then back to Aquos. He is [[Marucho Marukura]]'s [[Guardian Bakugan]] in ''[[Bakugan Battle Brawlers]]'' and in ''[[Bakugan Battle Brawlers: New Vestroia]]'' from episode 26. He evolved into Preyas II, [[Angelo/Diablo Preyas]].

In the Bakugan Video Game, Preyas can only be random of which attribute he becomes.

==Information==
===Bakugan.com===
Preyas is a chameleon monster with strong loyalty to Marucho. His greatest strength is that Preyas can change his molecular structure allowing him to take on characteristics of all the six attributes. Even though he has a menacing appearance, he is shy and comical. Small in comparison to the other monsters, Preyas makes up for it in speed.

===Bakugan Official Handbook===
Preyas has the amazing ability to change attributes whenever it needs to. You'll find that this versatile Bakugan can be a huge help in battle.

===Bakugan Ultimate Handbook===
On the field, Preyas is a regular comedy act, making jokes and razzing his opponents. But his battle style is serious. This chameleon can change his molecular structure to become any one of the six attributes. This means he can take whatever his opponents can dish out!

===Personality===
in battle brawlers Preyas was mostly as a clown and jokester who joked more than he did he is highly energetic and is always making fun but beneath his funny exterior Preyas deeply cares for Marucho and believes in him he tells Marucho he believes in him whenever Marucho is feeling weak or useless in brawls by New Vestroia Preyas had matured further still holding his energetic personality but he showed to care for elfin who is less matured and inexperienced in Mechtanium Surge Preyas had significantly matured he even started to train amazon indicating he has some level of maturity but he still has an jokester side while being an sensei to amazon Preyas is highly close to Elfin while the series never pointed out exactly he possibly have started an relationship with her in second arc of Mechtanium Surge.

==Anime==
===[[Bakugan Battle Brawlers]]===
He first appeared in [[BAKUGAN THE BATTLE BEGINS]], in the Aquos world.

[[Marucho Marukura]]'s Guardian Bakugan is an Aquos Preyas. Marucho obtained Preyas when he crashes Marucho's house party and he uses him to brawl the [[JJ Dolls]] [[Jenny]] and [[Jewels]]. Once he shows he can [[Special Attack|change]] his [[Attribute]], he is able to help defeat them with ease alongside [[Drago]].

He battled against Shun's [[Falconeer]] and later [[Skyress]] alongside [[Tigrerra]]. However, despite their power, they easily lost to her. He was the one who spilled the secret to [[Dan]] about [[Runo]] and [[Marucho]] going to [[Shun]]'s house, making everyone very angry at each other and Tigrerra angry at Preyas.

He later went with Marucho and the other brawlers to search for the [[Infinity Core]]. After stepping on a switch in the lab the brawlers see a video diary left by [[Michael Gehabich]], which shows how [[Vestroia]] started collapsing and how the Bakugan came to Earth. After receiving an email from [[Klaus von Hertzon]], Marucho battles him but is defeated as Preyas is sent to an unknown area by [[Sirenoid]] which makes [[Marucho]] very sad. After he was exposed to negative energy of the [[Silent Core]], he was used by Klaus to battle [[Marucho]], [[Runo]], and [[Dan]]. Klaus overuses Preyas in this battle to upset Marucho but through a combo they defeat him, changing him back to his normal self and using the Ability Card '''Pure Light''' to return him to Marucho.

After Dan and Drago get sucked into the [[Doom Dimension]] he lost the battle on purpose like the others to go and save them. After finding them they encounter the Six Ancient Warriors and are put through a test to make them evolve. When Marucho has to fight an illusionary version of himself, he gets angry almost costing him the battle because he hated his old self. But once Preyas was able to convince him that he shouldn't hate himself he is able to evolve into [[Angelo/Diablo Preyas]] during Marucho's battle with [[Frosch]].

After returning from the Doom Dimension he battles Drago so he can evolve. Although he and Angelo/Diablo were able to put up a good fight they still lost the battle.

In the anime, Preyas has a very unique and strange personality. He is afraid of battle often trying to run in the middle of a fight (like in the battle against [[Saurus]] in episode 7). He is also always pulling jokes, many of which are disrespectful and make people angry. For instance, one time in the series he changed to the wrong [[attribute]] ([[Darkus]] instead of [[Haos]]), which made Marucho upset. These jokes are mostly about what is around him and differ between the Japanese and Canadian version due to cultural differences.

===[[Bakugan Battle Brawlers: New Vestroia]]===
Prior to being captured, he met [[Elfin]] and trained her how to fight. He also protected the [[Wontu]] and flirted with Elfin a lot. He was previously stuck as a statue in [[Prince Hydron]]'s palace, but he eventually joins back up with Marucho when the gang frees them of their statue form. Based on Drago's statement of the capture of the other Six Fighting Bakugan, it is implied that Preyas was the first to be captured.

It is unknown what happened to Preyas Angelo/Diablo. They are presumed to be in [[New Vestroia]].

After he was freed, he returned to Earth with Marucho and Elfin. After talking with Marucho about how he should have had the Aquos [[Attribute Energy]] since he was worried about Elfin's safety. Elfin overheard it but thought it was out of jealousy and in a huff, Elfin left the safety of the mansion and was almost taken by [[Shadow Prove]] and Prince Hydron without even having to battle but Preyas rescued her. Preyas said he was a "cat whisperer" and he talked to the cat that found Elfin first. He and [[Minx Elfin]] battled against [[Dryoid]] and [[MAC Spider]]. However, Elfin was still mad at him but after explaining what he said that she didn't hear they made up in the middle of their battle. After Elfin sacrifices herself to save Preyas and loses the Aquos [[Attribute Energy]] in the process, Preyas, in a mad frenzy, defeats Shadow and Hydron, and declares it to be for his "precious, little Elfin." After the battle when Elfin brings it up, he starts to deny it and they started arguing again. However, during the battle against the Alternative, Preyas rescues Elfin and Marucho, the former of the two proclaiming him "my hero" and later after breaking into the alternative, she is shown resting against Preyas whom they along with Marucho remained behind to guard the rear while the rest continued on to the power generator.

He, along with the Brawlers and [[Gus Grav|Gus]] battle the Alternative. Later they destroy it. After that, he, Elfin, and Vulcan evacuated the area.

Sometime in the weeks between the Alternative's destruction and Bakugan Interspace being repaired, Preyas returned to New Vestroia along with Elfin, Ingram, Tigrerra, Gorem, and Hydranoid.

===[[Bakugan: Mechtanium Surge]]===
In ''[[Return to New Vestroia]]'', Preyas is shown training a Bakugan named [[Amazon]]. Preyas was happy to see Dan and Drago and asked if [[Marucho]] had come with them but was slightly saddened when Dan told them Marucho stayed on Earth. After some convincing from Preyas, Dan allows Amazon to brawl against Drago. Later Preyas tells Amazon that Drago is holding back so Drago uses his power and faints. Later Preyas and Amazon leave Drago and Dan. He also seems to wonder what is wrong with Drago and what they are going to do.

He appeared in ''[[Chaos Control]]'', talking to Drago and trying to encourage him. Later, [[Anubias]] comes along and challenges Drago. After Drago gets beaten down easily, Preyas steps in. He puts up a decent fight against Anubias' [[Chaos Bakugan]] but is defeated easily by [[Venexus]] and is mercilessly shot at. Later, he and Amazon hold off Venexus until [[Zenthon]] finishes him off. He then comments that are still a few things to work out with Drago's new powers and they will be there to help him saying "That's what friends are for."

He and Amazon were seen briefly on New Vestroia in ''[[The Final Takedown]]'' after the [[Dark Moon]] was destroyed.

In ''[[Blast From the Past]]'', he appeared along with an army of Bakugan trying to protect New Vestroia from [[Mechtavius Destroyer]], having been informed by the remaining Battle Brawlers that Mechtavius Destroyer was heading to New Vestroia. When Amazon was destroyed, Elfin jumped forward to make an attack on Mechtavius Destroyer, but she was destroyed as well, which saddened Preyas. Preyas was later killed after [[Taylean]], [[Master Ingram]], and [[Storm Skyress]] were killed.

Because the Brawlers used the [[Current of Time]] to go back before Mechtavius Destroyer killed him, he is now either living peacefully on New Vestroia or has reunited with Marucho.
