The Element is the 12th episode of Bakugan: Gundalian Invaders. It aired on August 8, 2010.
Plot[]
Ever since Neo Ziperator was captured by the Jesse Glenn of the Twelve Orders, Neo has gone into “sealed mode”, preventing the Gundalian forces from opening him. Kazarina explained to Ren Krawler that Neo Ziperator might be holding the The Element. Sid Arkale then took Neo Ziperator from Ren planning to return it to Emperor Barodius and get the praise and reward instead of Ren. On the way, Sid runs into Dan Kuso and challenges him to battle. In the first round Sid throws Rubanoid much to everyone's surprise. After Rubanoid was defeated, Neo Ziperator came out of “sealed mode” and Sid used him against Drago in battle. As soon as Neo stood on the battlefield, a big flash lit up the entire stadium, swallowing Helix Dragonoid. Neo then proceeds to give Drago the Element, in exchange for his own life. This makes Drago evolve into Lumino Dragonoid. Afterwards Neo appeared to Linus Claude in a dream saying he passed on the Element to a more worthy Bakugan, afterwards Neo heads to the afterlife, Linus says his farewell to his now deceased partner. Ren and Sid are berated by Barodius, Gill and Kazarina for having lost the Element so soon after getting it. And as punishment, Sid is fired from the Twelve Orders for his incompetence and failures, which causes Sid's Rubanoid to lose his temper and lash out his anger on Barodius for permanently dismissing Sid for his stupidity and incompetence right before Krakix knocked him out for his fury. As a result, Rubanoid is taken by Kazarina for experiments as punishment for his anger and his hostile behaviour towards Barodius, while Sid is disposed of. Ren is given one final chance to prove himself to Barodius.
