'Coredem' (コアデム, koademu^?) is a monarch-like Bakugan that looks similar to Gorem and Clayf. He is the Guardian Bakugan of Jake in Bakugan: Gundalian Invaders.

Information

Description

Coredem is partners with Jake of the Battle Brawlers. His defense and attack mode are grounded and solid. He punches the ground to destroy a Gate Card. The blue lens on Coredem's chest lights up the lines on his body, which runs through his arms to the fists powering them up for massive energy punches that hit the ground and makes rocks float up in the air, then punches them again and uses them as projectiles to smash the enemy. A dimensional hole in his palms absorbs all energy from an attack. His Battle Gear is Rock Hammer. The helmet-like structure on his head closes up during battle.

Anime

Bakugan: New Vestroia

Coredem first appears in episode 43 along with Aranaut, Hawktor and Akwimos when they somehow appear in Bakugan Interspace as Phantom Data.

Coredem and Hawktor battled Dan in episode 45 with Spectra as their temporary owner to test Dan for which Battle Gear Drago would be compatible with. Drago and Dan won and both Hawktor and Coredem were beaten. He also used a Battle Gear called Rock Hammer.

Bakugan: Gundalian Invaders

It is revealed during episode 1 that Coredem and Aranaut were still in Marucho's possession until Dan introduces him to Jake, a beginner brawler. As a gift Marucho offers him either Aranaut or Coredem and Jake chooses Coredem over Aranaut as his Guardian Bakugan. However, as Coredem was a Synthetic Bakugan he could not talk, something that disappointed Jake. In addition to Coredem, Jake also received the Battle Gear Rock Hammer. At first, Jake was a weak brawler, but then Julie Makimoto helped him out.

In episode 4, he appeared in Marucho's flashback. Later, he fought Avior twice. It lost the first battle, but won the second one thanks to Jake's strategies and Rock Hammer.

The real Coredem appeared in episode 8. He fought Rubanoid and Buz Hornix alongside Akwimos using Rock Hammer, and won. Coredem and Akwimos also used a gate card and became Darkus attributed.

In episode 9, Dan, Jake, Drago and Coredem battled two twins under hypnosis and Coredem called Drago brother, they won, so they snapped the kids out of it, taking their Ziperator and Ramdol in the process.

In episode 14, he brawled against Sabator. He and Sabator were evenly matched.

In episode 15, he teamed up with Akwimos and battled Strikeflier and Avior. They were getting hammered until Akwimos used an ability to make the battle a draw.

In episode 18, he and Aranaut battled and defeated Linehalt and Plitheon, despite losing in the 1st round.

He appeared again in episode 24 and 25 battling Krakix and Vicer with Rock Hammer but still lost in episode 25.

In episode 27, he battled Lumagrowl which used Barias Gear and he used Rock Hammer. He still lost both rounds even when he gave it his all.

In episode 28, he was brainwashed by Kazarina and later on he battled against Lumino Dragonoid under the hypnosis of Kazarina. Under her hypnosis, he became more animalistic and couldn't even speak, just making grunts and noises. He lost the first round but in the second round he was winning thanks to the Advanced Fusion Ability that Kazarina gave Jake until Hawktor came in and helped Drago beat him.

In episode 33, he battled Akwimos, but in the end, it was a tie.

In episode 35, he and Jake broke free of Kazarina's hypnosis and he smashed his way through the tube where Drago was being held.

In episode 36 he fought against Lythirus, Lumagrowl, Strikeflier and Krakix alongside Blitz Dragonoid, Drgonoid Colossus, Akwimos, Hawktor, Linehalt and Aranaut before heading back to Neathia.

In Code Eve, he fought against Phantom Dharak alongside Linehalt, Akwimos, Hawktor and Aranaut but was defeated with one hit.

In Destiny Revealed, he was revived by Linehalt's "Forbidden Power". He is later saying goodbye to Jake while trying to get Jake to stop crying so hard.
