Pheng Hope, known as Pot Hope (ポット・ホープ, Potto Hōpu) in Japan, is a character appearing in the anime/manga series, Beyblade Burst Rise. He fights with his Beyblade, Harmony Pegasus 10Proof Low Sen, and is the second of the Risen 3.
Appearance
Pheng Hope is a small boy with fair skin, lime eyes, mint-green hair that curves like wings, and blue tattoos on his face: two diamonds on the bridge of his nose and three horizontal dots on each cheek. His attire consists of a turquoise and grey robe with a dark-blue border on each arm sleeve, two blue scarves with a yellow stripe and fuzzy ends placed on each trapezius and held in place by a white belt with dark-yellow sections and a white circle in the buckle area, two red and green neck bands, teal shorts with a dark-blue border on each leg, and blue shoes with a white stripe on the vamp section, white heels and an orange stud on each tongue.
Personality
Pheng is very mischievous and loves pulling pranks on people, such as luring Dante and Arman into some traps, and using the fake hand trick on Delta. He is also stubborn, as he (initially) refused Dante's requests to battle.
It is also revealed that Pheng used to love battling and was very enthusiastic about it in the past. However, because he was so strong, winning eventually became boring for him. He rekindles his passion upon battling Dante and witnessing him unleashing Hyper-Flux.
Despite these seemingly negative traits, Pheng seems to be quite laid-back and friendly, even inviting Dante and the others to a feast at the Harmony's Castle although initially demanding it.
Pheng also has the ability to see his opponents’ ki (or chi) energy.
Biography
Background
Beyblade Burst Rise
Pheng made his debut in the ninth episode of the season as the second member of the Risen 3 to be revealed and was said to have an ability where he could view one's chi. As the first blader to challenge on their training journey, the Victories paid Pheng a visit at the Castle in the Clouds, and had also discovered that Pheng was a prankster, as Dante and Arman fell into one of his pitfalls on their way to the castle. It was later revealed that he often likes to pull pranks because he could never find a worthy blading opponent, that was until Dante Koryu begged Pheng into battling him.
During Pheng and Dante's battle, Pheng discovered Dante's Hyper-Flux and noticed that Dante's bond with Dragon was completely different from his own bond with Pegasus. Inspired by Dante's Hyper-Flux, Pheng wanted to strive for one of his own, and so he entered the Battle Island Tournament, but was eliminated by the newest member of the Risen 3, Delta Zakuro, in the third round.
Beyblades
- Harmony Pegasus 10Proof Low Sen: Pheng's primary Beyblade in Beyblade Burst Rise.
Special Moves
- Reverse Heal: When Pegasus takes damage and loses clicks, 2 yellow 'wings' are released with every click from the Harmony Layer Base. When an opponent strikes Pegasus once the wings are fully released, they will retract and restore the locking mechanism to its original position (with all of its teeth recovered). If an opponent does not attack when the wings are released, Pegasus will retract them on its own, either by attacking the opponent head-on, or hitting the stadium wall.
- Feather Storm: Using its 4 "feathers" on both sides, Pegasus creates a turquoise-cyan whirlwind with bright yellow highlights and a similarly-colored field of air that repels opponents’ attacks.
- Harmonic Thunder: When on the outer edge of the Beystadium, Pegasus pushes the free-spinning metal disc of the Low Performance Tip against the stadium floor to quickly change direction. Riding the slope of the stadium, Pegasus gains speed and hits its opponent full force.

Quotes
- "No way! You actually fell for it! Man that's rich!" - After Dante and Arman fell in his trap in Beyblade Burst Rise - Episode 09.
- "That's cool and all, but I don't battle weaklings."
- "I can't play all day, I'm busy. Although, seeing as you came all the way out here, if you truly want to battle me, I think I can squeeze ya in. But on one condition, if I win, you gotta agree to do anything I tell you to." - to Dante and Arman.
- "I guess you are worthy of challenging me after all, you've got a pretty good flow of chi." - to Arman.
- "So this is all you got huh, and I had real high hopes for you." - After Pheng defeated Arman.
- "Since you lost, you've gotta do anything I say, don't you!" - to Arman.
- "I've gotta admit, I'm kind of jealous of that passion of yours, you're lucky. For some reason, everything comes to me naturally, especially training, I've got as far as I can and I don't see the point in doing it anymore." - to Dante in Beyblade Burst Rise - Episode 10.
- "As long as I've got Pegasus, I'm good."
