Six months after defeating Haavik, the Awesome Brawlers have returned to their normal lives so far, but still remain sad because all of their Bakugan had to go into a years long hibernation, following the battle against Sabrus.
The AB are thrilled that Drago is back, but remain concerned about the other Bakugan still hibernating. Drago begins to explain that they shared their remaining strength with him, which is why he was able to return earlier in the first place.
The Bakugan that followed the AB back to Earth start causing chaos in Studio D. Fenneca, having had enough of this, runs away with Lia pursuing her.
Ferascal starts to mess with Lightning while the AB talk with Benton about why Fenneca didn’t disappear after she lost the battle against Duran. He suspects that the phenomenon only happens with Fenneca and wants to examine her more closely in order to learn more about this occurrence, much to her annoyance.
The AB are waiting for Dan to get out of class since he was the one that suggested shooting a video after school today. Ajit on the other hand goes to check on Pincitaur who is proven to have a laid back personality.
Following the battle against Strata, the AB and their Bakugan clean up the school since the Drome wasn’t able to fix it in the first place. Meanwhile, Shun and Sharktar travel to a remote island and meet up with Masato who refused Shun’s request earlier to use Kazami’s technology to stabilize the Drome, thinking that it’s no longer needed.
A new student named Jenny Hackett is introduced to the class, including the AB. She soon becomes infatuated with Wynton because she is a big fan of his work based on Bakugan, having watched the AB videos.
The AB discuss the events that happened with Wynton when Jenny stole his mobile gate and destroyed the equipment in his lab; he can always build another one despite his explanation that it’s not that easy to build.
Drago tells Dan that he received a message from Pyravian and asks him to contact the other AB for him, much to his confusion. They follow him to where the Healing Core Cell is located where he explains that Pyravian told him that a human with malicious intent came to Vestroia and stole the Healing Core Cell which he took back to Earth and advised him to find and recover that Core Cell at any cost.
Wynton and Falcron enter the underground passageway which leads them to a hidden laboratory. There, they discover the Healing Core Cell. Jenny confronts them, and Wynton deduces that she obtained it by using the mobile gate that she stole from him.
The AB discuss the event that happened last night when they witnessed a Geogan (Mutasect) that was recently summoned from the Healing Core Cell before it disappeared all of a sudden, prompting Dan to suggest that they search for one.
The AB are searching for a missing AAAnimus transport plane that was carrying confiscated Bakugan. They deduce that the reason AAAnimus were collecting these Bakugan is because they were caught battling illegally. Because the Drome no longer functions properly, they had no choice but to ban battling for their own protection.
The AB are preparing to shoot a Bakugan battle video from a dog’s eye view, but all of a sudden, they discover some guy offering his fixing services to everyone in Los Volmos because he believes that Bakugan are causing damage everywhere.
Dan and Shun prepare to test out the new Drome developed by the Kazami's latest tech, the Drome generator since the old Drome has become unstable for an unknown reason. If this Drome is a success, then Brawlers all over the world will be able to battle just like they used to.
Following Dan and Drago’s disappearance, the AB are attempting to figure out a way to get to Vestroia so that they can go and rescue them.
Wynton is designing a new mobile gate in order to travel to Vestroia to find Dan and Drago which requires an incredible amount of power in order to do so.
The AB arrive in Vestroia in search of Dan and Drago, until Spartillion appears and tries to stop them from finding Drago.
Picking up where we left off, Pyravian has nominated Drago for a seat on the Supreme Bakugan Council. Drago agrees to join the Council as long as Earth and Vestroia remain unseparated.
Having passed the test, Drago is now a member of the Supreme Bakugan Council who becomes determined to prevent the separation of Vestroia and Earth. Meanwhile, Lightning and Ferascal accidentally upset Apollyon, a Golden Bakugan who, annoyed by their antics, starts to chase after them.

Shun has called a strategy meeting for the AB because it’s only a matter of time before the Battle Judgement tournament begins where they will have to battle the Council members Viloch and Goreene.
A group of masked bandits called the Mad Masks break into a museum and steal a couple of ancient Bakugan. The AB soon learn about the theft from last night where Wynton suggests tracking down the energy source first using his Baku-Radar app that he created which has the ability to detect different kinds of Bakugan energy, hoping that it will lead them to the Mad Masks who are also after it to begin with.
Wynton and Ajit learn about Dan’s confrontation with Gregorius Reed, which took place around the same time when they were battling the Mad Masks led by Strata.
The AB head to a junkyard to throw away a bunch of junk that the Bakugan have collected recently, which made Lia furious to begin with.
Lia discovers that the views on the AB’s video channel have been decreasing a lot lately since they’ve been busy training for the upcoming Battle Judgement tournament. While begging for new video ideas, Wynton suggests that they investigate the existence of the Wolfman, a mysterious cryptid living out in the forests all around Los Volmos, much to Lia’s shock.
Lightning and Ferascal are on their way to Lightning’s favorite steakhouse to enjoy a free feast, but they soon learn from its owner that a new sushi restaurant has opened across the street which has started to attract a lot of customers in the process, which has put a strain on its business for starters.
The AB discover that the Bakugan Coliseum is hosting a Medieval adventure game where contestants compete in challenges to win.

Wynton is forced to stay behind to watch his younger siblings Anton and Jennifer as they start running around the house causing chaos everywhere. Upon seeing an advertisement where a bunch of Bakugan battles will be taking place at Pin Point Park, they beg him to take them there.
The AB head down to an underground mine owned by the Kazami’s to continue their training. Arriving at a perfect battle location, Dan and Lightning begin their practice match. Meanwhile, Fenneca and Pincitaur run off to explore the mine for treasure.
The AB continue their training for the Battle Judgement, until “The Exit” team show up asking for their help because they want to make a new video for their channel. They want to turn over a new leaf in order to make up for all the bad stuff they used to do in the past, so they started uploading new videos that they’ve made recently, but their view count seems to be low.
The AB are about to compete in the Battle Judgement. While heading to the arena, Lia notices someone in the shadows and chases after it, only to run into a Bakugan. This leads to a battle where it is revealed that it was Everett hiding in the shadows. Luckily, the other AB arrive to help her, but after Apollyon interrupts them, Everett flees while Dan pursues him, but he disappears all of a sudden.
The Battle Judgement Ceremony is about to begin where the opponents will be selected by the jewels. After the participants transfer their energies into the jewels, thus creating the match-ups, the first match begins with Ajit competing against Reed.
Pyravian takes the AB to Aquilia (the Aquos realm) because she wants to show them a very special place before the continuation of the Battle Judgement. Upon arrival, the AB discover a lot of Bakugan in a deep hibernation, including their own, and their former main partners.
Dan and Drago search for the Aquilia artifact and manage to locate it via a surge of light. After locating the artifact, they attempt to retrieve it, but they discover that a strong current is protecting it. They attempt to get through the current again, but during the struggle, Dan’s oxygen tank gets damaged in the process.
n Ventana (the Ventus realm), Dan and Drago go to retrieve the artifact while Wynton faces Magnus in their match. During the battle, Nillious overpowers Falcron, nearly defeating him in the process. Seeing how strong Magnus and Nillious have gotten, Wynton advises Falcron to take a different approach in this battle, believing that it might work.
Dan and Drago follow the light from the monument, hoping that it will lead them to the Ventana artifact, but instead, it leads them to another monument with the same message as the first one. It then transmits another surge of light in a different direction where Drago believes that this is all they have to do.
In Haora (the Haos Realm), Dan prepares to face Jenny in their match despite being warned that she’s a tough opponent. Meanwhile, Jenny decides to do an experiment that involves summoning a Geogan at will, believing that it will help her win the match.
Dan and Drago are searching for the Haora Artifact that has taken the form of six birds made of light. They locate them and realize that they have to catch all of them, thinking that this is a test that they must pass.
Picking up where we left off after the gateway took Dan and Magnus to a strange place, most likely somewhere in Vestroia, they start to get into an argument about the fate of Earth and Vestroia, with Magnus proclaiming that the reason he joined up with Viloch is because he still intends to settle their score, not caring about what will happen to the two planets to begin with.
Dan and Drago are searching for the Darkavia Artifact, with no luck whatsoever. They soon meet a new Bakugan named Ninjiton, the guardian of the Darkavia Artifact who has heard about them from Pyravian. He agrees to direct them to the Darkavia Artifact but tells them that the only way to claim it is to conquer the darkness that is capable of playing tricks on their minds.
In Pyrule (the Pyrus Realm), the AB become concerned about Dan and Drago making it back in time for their match against Everett because they still have to retrieve the Pyrule Artifact. Ferascal comes up with a plan where she starts an argument with Fenneca, which then escalates into a fight, with Pincitaur joining in.
Dan is about to face Everett in the second match of the semi-finals. Although he has collected all of the artifacts, he still doesn’t know what to do next. Pyravian tells Dan that the power of the artifacts can only be unlocked when a true warrior is in need of them. Dan and Everett begin their match, with Dan gaining the upper hand on him.
The final battle between Dan and Magnus is about to begin. In this battle, in order to prevent any unfair faction advantages, the battle arena will take place in both Pyrule and Darkavia, each split in half.
Viloch’s true maniacal nature has finally been revealed. He starts off by summoning the six faction crystals where he intends to use their power to rise up beyond its limitations, and separate Earth and Vestroia by destroying the Great Nexus that binds the two planets together.
Now that Drago has been combined with the AB’s Geogan, becoming Geo-Forge Dragonoid in the process, he prepares to battle and defeat Viloch alongside Dan, determined to stop him from separating Earth and Vestroia.
Dan and Drago still have a fighting chance to stop Viloch from destroying the Great Nexus since the Bakugan have transferred their powers to him because they’re resonating with the artifacts. Despite making a successful comeback, Viloch begins to increase his power, which is sensed by Crystal Blue because it’s only a matter of time before the Geogan’s life force is depleted.
