Resonance (Japanese: 共鳴) is a recurring theme and plot element featured throughout the Beyblade Burst series.
Description[]
Resonance is a mysterious phenomenon that occurs naturally between a Blader with strong attachments with their Bey (e.g. Valt Aoi and his Valtryek Beyblades). Resonance occurs during moments of intense mental focus and concentration and ignited by a Blader's competitor spirit and willpower. During Resonance events, the Blader radiates waves of power and this power is transmitted to their Bey and harnessed by their avatar for power. The process causes the Bey to emanate the same aura and glow as the Blader and if their Resonance is strong enough, their avatar spirit can manifest entirely during battle.
Overview[]
Resonance is the energy generated through the synchronization of a Blader and their Beyblade's Avatar and is the primary power source for Bladers within the Beyblade Burst canon. This power is measured as Resonance Power (共鳴力)
Though the criteria to acquire this ability is unknown, Resonance responds primarily to intense emotions and it can be assumed that all Bladers possess the ability. Harnessing this energy, a Blader can amplify the power and capabilities of a Beyblade. Resonance-capable characters generate a colored aura which allows them to invoke their Beyblade's avatar.
Normal[]
It is implied that most main characters can use resonance since there are a variety of avatars that have been seen over the course of the series. It is also used in the anime to activate various abilities like the Turbo Awakening and Lightning Launch. It is likely this has to be trained since it took Hyuga Hizashi and Hikaru Hizashi a lot of training to be able to do so, but in some cases, like Aiger (who was able to resonate with Achilles since his debut) and Gwyn Reynolds (who could do this with Genesis immediately to use Superior Flux) it is natural.
Dark Resonance[]
In Beyblade Burst Turbo, during the battle between Laban Vanot and Phi in Episode 24, Aiger Akabane started to possess a special type of Resonance called the Devil's Resonance (悪魔の共鳴), a corrupted, rage-driven type of Resonance which increasingly influences the Blader's behavior with intense impulses of uncontrollable aggression gained from shared pain. Unlike the usual power generated from mutual Resonance, this type of Resonance dominates the Beyblade's Avatar and is inherently toxic to them. Hyde is another user of this resonance. Both were freed from this when Phi destroyed their Beyblades.
Besides this, Phi and Arthur Peregrine also posses dark resonance since they can turn their beys dark coloured during battle. When Delta Zakuro wielded Venom Diabolos Vanguard Bullet/Erase Diabolos Vanguard Bullet, he may also have used this type of resonance.
Flare[]
In Beyblade Burst Surge, Flare (太陽) is a new type of Resonance was introduced with the New Generation blader Lain Valhalla. When a blader possesses a Flare, their resonance generates flames around their body and grants a boost in power to their Beyblades, which demonstrates a flare when spinning. Lain is the first blader to possess a Flare until Hyuga Hizashi and Hikaru Hizashi manifested their own individual Flares near the end of the Legend Festival. During the battle between Valt Aoi and Rantaro Kiyama with Shu Kurenai in the Ultimate Tag Series, Lain's Flare color changed from purple to ruby pink after witnessing the Blading Style of Valt and Shu.

Trivia[]
- Flare is likely referencing a solar flare, as the 3 Beys that have used Flare are sun-related.
