Dread Bahamut 7Wall Orbit Metal Gen (ドレッドバハムート・セブンウォール・オービットメタル・幻, Doreddo Bahamūto Sebun Uōru Ōbitto Metaru Gen) is a Defense Type Beyblade released by Takara Tomy as part of the Burst System as well as the Gatinko Layer System. It was released in Japan on August 10th, 2019 for 3456円 as a part of the GT Triple Booster Set.

Gatinko Chip - Bahamut

Main article: Gatinko Chip - Bahamut

Bahamut is a left-spin Gatinko Chip that depicts a dragon-like creature in the form of Bahamut, a monster from Arabic folklore. The design is reminiscent of its predecessor, Arc Bahamut. Bahamut has a standard weight for Gatinko Chips, and average Burst Resistance. Its mediocre Burst Resistance is due to its seven fine locks, and thus a Dash Driver is recommended if Bahamut is being used.

Hasbro's Pro Series Balkesh is virtually unchanged from Takara Tomy's Bahamut, but manufactured with weaker materials.

Layer Weight - Gen

Main article: Layer Weight - Gen

Gen, unlike other Layer Weights, is a small rubber piece, with one side featuring a triangular protrusion that serves as a Burst Stopper. In theory, it is meant to make a combination using this Layer Weight nearly unburstable. However, there is one huge downside to Gen: The combination using it loses a substantial amount of weight. Since this weight is lost from the Layer, this makes the increase in Burst Resistance less notable, as heavy Forge Discs will still skip teeth more on lighter Layers. Furthermore, this loss of weight decreases Stamina, Attack, and Defense potential in any sort of combination. The only practical use of Gen is to make Dread semi-functional, as without Gen, Dread is even more burst prone.

Layer Base - Dread

Main article: Layer Base - Dread
A Defense Type Base that becomes circular each time it receives damage and parries the opponent's attacks to prevent bursts.
— Official Description

Similar to Arc Bahamut, Takara Tomy's Dread is a Left-Spin Defense Type Layer Base that features four clockwise blades that have six gaps in between them, and features a gimmick; a movable sub-layer.

The sub-layer moves in order to fill in the six gaps in between the blades and reduce recoil.

Forge Disc - 7

Main article: Forge Disc - 7

7, like other odd numbered Core Discs, is an asymmetrical, elliptical disc that can facilitate a Disc Frame. 7 is designed similar to Gravity or Heavy, with seven designs jutting out that resemble the number "7". At first glance, the Disc looks unbalanced, but in reality, two of the sections on one side being halves makes it balanced. 7 is one of the heaviest Discs thus far, outclassed only by 10 and 0, and has a ideal weight distribution for Stamina Combinations. Its high Outward Weight Distribution (OWD) grants it not only the highest Stamina potential out of all other Core Discs, but its weight grants it high Attack and Defense potential without the severe Burst Risk of 8. With the use of Disc Frames, 7 can be used to great effect in any Combination.

Disc Frame - Wall

Main article: Disc Frame - Wall

Wall is a round, thick Frame with eight, large, downward protrusions. This makes Wall one of the largest and heaviest Frames in the game, heavier than Bump or Lift. While this may imply high Attack potential when paired with Core Discs such as 0, 10 or 00, Wall's size makes it a severe scrape and Stamina risk, making it difficult to achieve banking patterns and making Stationary Attack Combinations scrape even at relatively high spin velocities.

However, Wall's size, shape and weight benefits Bearing-based Combinations as Wall lowers a Combination's center of gravity, allowing a Bearing-based Spin-Equalization Combination stay upright for longer, allowing for more rotations and Precession.

Trivia

  • Like Arc Bahamut 2Bump Atomic, Dread Bahamut's name is based from the Bahamut, a gigantic fish or whale that lies deep below, underpinning the support structure that holds up the Earth in Arabic folklore.
    • Following Arc Bahamut's avatar, Dread Bahamut's is dragon based.
    • This is the first Bahamut Beyblade from Beyblade Burst to not be owned by Boa Alcazaba, as it was created by Blindt. Due to this, the Dread Bahamut avatar is a separate entity than an upgrade of Arc Bahamut's avatar, noted by Dread Bahamut's sleeker dragon features, magenta glowing veins, a wing on each arm, paws, lack of fangs, and a red orb on its torso.
  • Dread Bahamut is the third Beyblade released during Beyblade Burst Rise to contain a Forge Disc and Disc Frame, first being Judgement Joker 00Turn Trick Zan and second being Heaven Pegasus 10Proof Low Sen.
  • This is the first Gatinko Beyblade where the Layer Base and Gatinko Chip were also released in a Random Layer Pack.
