Diablo Nemesis X:D

Diablo Nemesis X:D is an unreleased Balance-Type Beyblade that appears in the anime and manga series, Beyblade: Metal Fury. It is the Beyblade form of Nemesis and is expected to be released on December 27, 2011 in Japan. It is owned by the "Child of Nemesis" Rago.

Diablo Nemesis is one of the most interesting and uniquely designed Beyblades of Metal Fury. What is unique, is that it puts together different elements of many 4D System Beyblades together to form it. This is used for it's Face Bolt, 4D Energy Ring, and 4D Fusion Wheel. Diablo Nemesis is also the heaviest uncustomized Beyblade produced, weighing about 62 grams, beating Twisted Tempo 145WD which was about 50 grams.

Face Bolt: Nemesis
The Face Bolt depicts "Nemesis". In Greek mythology, Nemesis was the spirit of rebuke against the Gods and the Goddess of Revenge and Balance. The design is quite interesting, in that it uses elements from many Metal Fury Beys altogether, to form the face of Nemesis. It uses the chin of Variares, the blue design of Phantom Orion, an eye of Beat Lynx, the arrow eye of Flame Sagittario, a wing of Big Bang Pegasis, a wing of Death Quetzalcoatl, the paw and claws of Fang Leone, the head of L-Drago Destroy, Aquila from Jade Jupiter, the face of Blitz Unicorno, the scythe of Scythe Kronos, the swan from Kreis Cygnus, the mouth of Duo Uranus, and the helmet of Fusion Hades. Also if one were to look closely, the motif's form a perfect skull shape, with the eye sockets included. The design is on a purple translucent Face Bolt.

4D Energy Ring: Nemesis
Nemesis, just like the Face Bolt motif and Diablo, uses different characteristics of Metal Fury Beyblades incorporated into it's design. It uses parts of the Uranus, Cygnus, and Jupiter 4D Energy Rings as a whole. It uses the whirlpool-like shape of Uranus, the swan wings of Cygnus, and the spiked designs of Jupiter. Nemesis also shows a dragon-like design onto it going into it's own tail which may be a reference to the mythical Greek symbol, "Ouroboros", which is a dragon swallowing it's own tail. Nemesis is also black in colour with blue highlights.



Metal Frame
Diablo's Metal Frame is a circular Frame that primarily consists of three heads. These include, the head of Beat Lynx with green/yellow eyes, a design that resembles the smirk of Phantom Orion with blue/purple eyes, and the head of Fang Leone. It does feature some jagged paw-like protrusions around it as well. This might pay somewhat of a homage to the Biblical description of a "Cherub", with the face of a man, a bird and a lion.

Core
Diablo's Core is also a circular Core that also borrows designs from many Metal Fury Beys. They are as follows, a part of Scythe Kronos, a part of Blitz Unicorno, a wing design of Death Quetzalcoatl, a part of Fusion Hades, a part of Flash Sagittario, a part of Variares, a dragon's head/neck of L-Drago Destroy, and a wing design of Big Bang Pegasis. Other than this, the Core does indeed appear bulky and thick.

Diablo's main gimmick is the ability to pair up two of the aforementioned Beyblade designs together in order to form one of the main contact points. Other than this, Diablo has taken a massive makeover compared to it's prototype.

Just like the rest of the Metal Fury Wheels, Diablo features a Mode Change. With a total of two Modes, them being "Attack Mode" and "Ultimate Balance Mode". In Attack Mode, Diablo appears just like it's official picture but in Ultimate Balance Mode, Diablo appears to be turned upside-down with the Nemesis 4D Energy Ring being pushed up. Diablo's Metal Frame is also free-spinning in Ultimate Balance Mode.



4D Performance Tip: X:D (X Drive)
X:D (X Drive) features three Performance Tips, much like D:D, which are XF (Extreme Flat), a new Tip by the name of S²D (Stern Semi Defense) and S (Sharp), the Tips are quite small however.

X:D appears to be a hybrid of D:D and F:D/F:S. As the Tips follow patterns but do not always use the same; it can be XF, S²D, to S or S to S²D to XF, but this automatic change only takes place when Diablo is in Ultimate Balance Mode, since Attack Mode only allows for manual changes, similar to D:D. S²D only appears in Ultimate Balance Mode however.

X:D has a funnel-like design much like AD145 with a purple tip at the bottom that reveals the three aforementioned Performance Tips.

Trivia

 * Diablo is Spanish for "devil".
 * Diablo Nemesis may be unbalanced due to the Energy Ring and the Fusion Wheel having different designs on different parts of the Metal Frame.
 * S²D (Stern Semi Defense) is quite fitting as Stern is another name for Nemesis in German astrology and in English astrology, the definition of Stern is "hypothetical star", also known as Nemesis.
 * It is unknown how X:D will perform with another Bey, since X:D can manually change in Attack Mode and changes automatic in Ultimate Balance Mode (with Diablo).
