History
Tetsuya was nice and happy at first until Tabara, the wandering blader, asked which of the two bladers (battling beys at the time) was Echizen. Echizen was afraid of Tabara, so Tetsuya covered for Echizen, battled with Tabara, and lost. As a result, Mad Gasher received permanent scraches all around itself. Tetsuya was mad at Echizen for leaving him alone to lose with Tabara, causing crabs to harm Echizen's bey. From then on, he has traveled the world, seeking beys from bladers to destroy in scratches.
