His black hair consists of two layers. The first layer of hair is the front all one his forehead, and his second layer is the straight hair tied up with a ponytail. His light brown eyes are in an upset mood.

He has black rubber boots that almost goes to his knees. He later wears a long green vest up to his knees with a belt on the side when its open. When he is on Earth he wears black pants with a black shirt with green markings. Shun's hair is almost the same only the difference is that he cut off his ponytail and his hair is up to his neck.

In Bakugan: Gundalian Invaders, he wears a green ninja style shirt with purple and gold trimming, black pants, black wrist bands and purple and green boots.

In Arc 1 of Bakugan: Mechtanium Surge, Shun sports a light green shirt under a white shirt with dark green trimming, a dark green choker, tan colored pants and light brown boots. His hair is starting to grow more.

In Arc 2, he wears a green jacket and a green shirt with white pants along with black shoes.

Personality

Shun is one of the calmest Brawlers in the series. He rarely gets flustered or annoyed and even when he is annoyed; he maintains a cool voice (even though he voices his displeasure). Shun is a lone wolf and always focuses in battles. However, his stamina does have its limits; shown by how he tires after a large amount of constant battling. He has distaste for BakuNano as he sees them as dangerous for inexperienced Brawlers to have but gradually uses his own when needed. Shun has good instincts as he is able to discern a person's actions by their personality.

Anime

Bakugan Battle Brawlers

Shun ready to throw his Bakugan — Shun in *Bakugan Battle Brawlers*

Shun Kazami lives in the province and is a Ventus attribute brawler. He is also an aspiring ninja, receiving training from his grandfather. He is a loner, yet is still willing to help his friends at all costs. Together with Dan Kuso, his best friend and childhood friend, he invented the gameplay for Bakugan. He had been the first ranked battler until Masquerade and his minions dominated the rankings and because his grandfather didn't let him play, ending up in 6th place. After defeating Komba, he ends up fifth. Shun is currently in 3rd place. Marucho and Runo try to convince Shun to join the brawlers, but he defeats both of them in battle. Eventually later he agrees after a situation with Dan and Masquerade. Dan, Shun and the brawlers become friends again.

His mother was really sick and it was when she slipped into a coma that Shun gave up on Bakugan, mainly because his grandfather stated that since he has to take custody of Shun until his mother gets better, he can't play the game anymore and has to concentrate on his training. His grandfather lets him brawl again, though. Shun's mom eventually dies.

Shun once left the brawlers when Dan says they don't need him. Alice tries to persuade him to come back and after brawling Komba, Dan appears and asks for forgiveness to which Shun accepts. This is when he realizes he needs his friends the most. After defeating Komba, Shun takes him as an apprentice to Bakugan and ninja training, but only because Komba was literally on his knees begging to be one.

When everyone was thinking about who was the spy, Shun was the other candidate for the spy alongside Alice. Julie mistook his grandfather for Hal-G, but with a little help from Skyress, the problem was solved. Dan blamed him for not telling them that he came in town, but Alice immediately defended Shun, saying that it's not his fault and that there's no need for him to apologize.

After Dan went to the Doom Dimension, Shun was challenged by Masquerade and decided to go to the Doom Dimension himself with the others.

When he was being tested in the Doom Dimension by the Ventus Lord, Shun had to brawl with the child form of his mother. He almost gave into losing and staying there forever, but Skyress was able to make him realize that he has friends who need him and that he needs them. This caused Skyress to evolve into Storm Skyress. When Dan and Drago were battling to get Drago to evolve, Shun and Storm Skyress were the Brawlers Dan battled last. He was defeated after a close battle and Drago evolved.

He was very shocked when he found out that Alice was Masquerade, but instead of protecting her, he made a comment about how "smart" Masquerade was, which caused Alice to cry and flee back to Russia. It is believed that he did this because he felt angered about the fact that she was Masquerade. After Alice saved Dan and Drago he regained his "friendship" with her and later, he and Skyress helped Alice, Joe and Wavern by distracting Naga so that they can give them more time, but they were easily defeated by the Silent Core. After the battle finished, he released Storm Skyress and all of his other Bakugan.

Bakugan Battle Brawlers: New Vestroia

Sweet shun shun kazami — Shun in *Bakugan Battle Brawlers: New Vestroia*

Shun, now 16 years old, is first mentioned when Dan complains about not being able to reach him. He makes a cameo debut after Marucho passes out from his battle against Mylene Pharaoh. We hear Mylene tell him that she doesn't want to keep losing to him and asks him if he wants to join the Vexos. When he doesn't reply, she takes that as a no. Shun then leaves, leaving Mira to wonder if he was her brother.

Later, Shun reappears to aid Dan Kuso in his battle against Spectra Phantom and Gus Grav. He tells the Brawlers how he was in the mountains, practicing his ninja skills when a portal suddenly opened, sending him to New Vestroia. Soon he met Ingram when the Bakugan were being sucked up by the Vexos and he saves her by grabbing onto her ball as she was being teleported. Ingram told him about the Vexos and he agreed to help her save the Bakugan. When he noticed Dan's battle, Shun activates his Gauntlet and uses Ingram and Hylash to fly over to where Dan is and help defeat Gus. Once Baron reveals that they've reached Alpha City, Shun tells them, that he was heading there to rescue Skyress, thinking she might be there. He becomes an official member of the Resistance.

In Alpha City, Shun and Ace were forced to team up in a tournament while the others shut down the Dimension Controller. At first, they have trouble working together, but after getting taunted by their opponents, they put their differences aside and advance to the finals against Lync and Volt. In order to stall for time, they had to toy with them first. It eventually remains difficult to stay in the battle, but they pull through and defeat the two.

When Ace and Marucho fall into a Vexos trap, Shun was smart enough to not fall for it because he knew that Shadow Prove's impressions of Dan Kuso and Mira Clay were fake since he heard Dan say he was scared, something he would never do. However, even though he didn't fall for it, the trap still worked since all three of them were separated. Shun decided he would go to Beta City alone to destroy the Dimension Controller, but Ingram assured him that he is never alone as Ingram would always be by his side like a shadow. Shun eventually made it to Beta City, but Shadow Prove stops him and forces him into a battle. Shadow used Alpha Hydranoid in the battle which surprised both Shun and Ingram. As the battle went on they tried to convince Hydranoid to snap out of it, which was later revealed to be a mechanical version of Alpha Hydranoid known as Mechanical Darkus Hades created by Professor Clay. Shadow had the upper hand when Shun was down to his last ability card 'Double Fangs Jade Wind Shot', but Shun and Ingram almost pulled off a win until Shadow brought out his Mechanical Bakugan Trap Darkus Fortress. After that, Shun loses and later on revealed to be in pods with Ace and Marucho. While they were captured, they still had their Bakugan at the capture unit pod.

Later, Shun, Ace and Marucho manage to get out with Mira and Spectra Phantom's help. The three manage to escape Beta City, but are surprised when Dan and Baron told them that Mira betrayed them and joined the Vexos. Once they got to Gamma City, Shun and Marucho face Mylene and Shadow in a rematch and manage to win. When Prince Hydron's Dimension Controller activates, Shun rescues Mira and Marucho, landing on top of an elevator leading to Prince Hydron's Palace. He, Mira and Marucho then confront Hydron and witness Mylene take him away. He convinces Marucho not to go after them and they begin trying to free their Bakugan. They managed to crack the code to free the Six Warrior Bakugan, thanks to Elfin, who accidentally pressed the correct keys. Shun was very happy to be reunited with Skyress and shortly met up with Dan, Ace and Baron.

Shun, Dan, and Marucho go back to Earth along with everyone except Skyress. Skyress said that Shun didn't need her anymore and left her successor as Ingram to become Shun's new and permanent guardian. Ingram then evolves into Ventus Master Ingram after the Six Ancient Warriors gave their Attribute Energies to Drago and the other Resistance Bakugan.

Shun goes to New Vestroia with Master Ingram, where he meets up with Skyress again. After she told them about the strange device that regressed all Bakugan to ball form Shun tried to destroy it, but it was protected by a force field. He is then confronted by Lync who revealed it was the BT System. Shun nearly lost due to his inability to control Master Ingram's powers, but Storm Skyress stepped in for Ingram, but almost ended up sacrificing herself in the process. Ingram finally regained his confidence and was able to unlock Shadow Wing to defeat Lync and Aluze. After the battle Shun got very upset when Skyress left saying she will always be watching over him. Later, Shun told Dan and the others what happened when he last visited New Vestroia to investigate.

Shun somehow senses that Volt is on Earth and sneaks out of Marucho's house to face him. During the battle it looked a little grim for Shun until Baron shows up and is able to help him face Volt and his mechanical Bakugan Boriates. Baron's little sister Maron unfortunately gets caught in the crossfire, but is saved by Shun. They win, keeping the Ventus energy safe. Unfortunately, in a rematch against Volt and Mylene Pharaoh in a tag battle with Baron, he loses due to the Vexos' special new battle arena that gave Mechanical Bakugan a power boost. Because of that, the Ventus energy is taken.

When the BT System was fully operational, Shun helped all the Bakugan get onto the Vestal Destroyer. During the evacuation Shun openly expressed his distrust of Spectra, saying he's only helping because he wants to create the Ultimate Bakugan and that can't happen if the BT System works. He and the rest of the brawlers then watched Dan and Spectra's final rematch.

When the Alternative was complete, in episode 50-52 Dan and the other brawlers, including Shun, battled it. Shun used all his Bakugan: Master Ingram, Shadow Wing, and Hylash. When Keith and Helios were able to blow open a hole in the Alternative, Dan, Shun, Ace, and Baron went inside to destroy it from the inside, as Shun remembered the blueprints for it. Professor Clay then trapped the four of them in a virtual world similar to Bakugan Interspace where they battled four unknown Bakugan. They managed to win and were able to destroy the Alternative. They later part ways with Mira and the other Vestals of the Resistance and head back to Earth.

In the Japanese Ending of Episode 52 he is seen with Alice, Hydranoid and Ingram as they watch Marucho repairing Bakugan Interspace. At the end of New Vestroia, Hawktor becomes his new Guardian Bakugan, with no word as to Ingram's fate.

Bakugan: Gundalian Invaders

Bakuganbrawlers 1282341478 — Shun in *Bakugan: Gundalian Invaders*

Shun is seen competing in a battle in Bakugan Interspace with the synthetic Ventus Hawktor as his partner. He battles Shuji in arena F-12. He is ranked the second best brawler in Bakugan Interspace, right between Dan and Marucho. Shun still seems to distrust Ren, much in the same way as Ace distrusted Keith Clay when he first joined the Brawlers.

When Fabia Sheen appears and battles Dan, Shun is the first to suspect that Ren's story about the Neathian attacking Gundalia is not true. After Dan defeats Fabia and she leaves, Shun finds her and asks for her side of the story.

After learning from Fabia what was really going on, he and Fabia work together to expose Ren for lying about the Gundalian-Neathian War, saying that the Neathians invaded Gundalia when it was really the other way around. Ren flees, which Shun says only proves their theory correct. Marucho, still trusting Ren, yells at him and runs after Ren.

After Marucho had run off, he and the rest of the Brawlers watch Marucho brawl Ren, he then like the others see Ren's true Gundalian Form.

After Marucho and Ren 's battle, he, Marucho and Jake get the real versions of their Bakugan and then are challenged to a brawl against Sid Arcale, Mason Brown, Taylor and Casey. Shun and Dan brawl Mason and Taylor and beat them both clearing Taylor's brainwash, but then like the other brawlers are forced out of Bakugan Interspace when Ren hacks into the systems and now BI is under his control.

While trying to get back into BI, he mentions to Jake that he was being a bit rough, and now no one in BI could leave, which he seemed very worried about until Drago and Coredem along with Jake and Dan come up with a way to spy then get them out.

While smuggling kids out of Bakugan Interspace, Shun comes across Linus and Neo Ziperator, who he believes are Gundalians, but realizes are Neathians when Ren and Jesse show up and challenge them to a battle. Linus had been carrying something very important and asked Shun to escort him to Fabia. Shun remarks that any friend of Fabia's is a friend of his and the two battle against Ren and Jesse together. Shun and Linus eventually lost the battle and Neo was taken by Jesse.

After hearing how things are getting worse on Neathia, Shun and the others decide to head to there to help fight. Fabia takes them to the Sacred Orb and reveals that it is the true object of Barodius' desire. He ends up facing Airzel and Strikeflier and suddenly got overpowered. Later, he is made a Castle Knight by Captain Elright and was loned the Ventus Castle Knight uniform.

Later, Shun accompanies Dan and Fabia to the second shield generator while Marucho and Jake distract Airzel and Mason. He, Dan and Fabia are making their way through the jungle when Stoica and Jesse confront them. Dan and Fabia remain behind to deal with Stoica and Jesse while Shun continues ahead. Later, it is revealed that Dan and Shun switched their Bakugan so Shun, being the fastest member of the team, could continue with Drago and the Element to power the second shield.

When Shun and Drago reach the shield generator, Shun successfully sneaks into the building while disabling the Gundalian guards. However, before he can reactivate the shield, Kazarina and Lena arrive and ambush them and a battle ensues. Shun takes out Lena with next to no effort, but begins struggling with Kazarina. Dan and Hawktor arrive in time and they switch back their Bakugan. Dan stays behind to deal with Kazarina while Shun enters the building to reactivate the shield.

During the Gundalian's next invasion attempt, Shun battles Zenet and Gill. This battle marks the first time Shun uses his Battle Gear, making him the only main character to take the longest to use his Battle Gear. He easily overpowers Zenet, but struggles against Gill. Fortunately, Dan arrives in time and the Gundalians are defeated. The invasion continues and Shun must hold off Airzel and Strikeflier. Airzel begins overwhelming them, but Fabia steps in to help out. Kazarina ends up defeating Fabia and Airzel launches a sneak attack and defeats Shun.

After Jake is taken by Kazarina, he witnesses Jake return to Neathia, but is suspicious of whether or not that is the real Jake. He tests Jake to see if he remembers distracting the Gundalians to help Dan and Shun restart the second shield, and he in fact remembers. Later, he helps Dan defeat the brainwashed Jake, utilizing Swayther.

With the help of Dragonoid Colossus, he, Marucho, and Dan break in to the Gundalian castle to rescue Jake, while Fabia, Ren, Mason and Nurzak rescue the rest of Ren's team, but he and Marucho get separated from Dan. The two of them face off against Gill and Airzel. Although Shun manages to defeat Airzel, Gill still defeats the two of them. Shun then throws a smoke ball and the two of them escape.

They are later seen disguised as Gundalian guards infiltrating the palace. Though after that they soon fought and they escaped with everyone including Jake (not hypnotized anymore). Once they returned to Neathia, Shun and the others fought to hold off the Gundalian forces. Though the other Twelve Orders fell, Shun was easily beaten, along with all the other Brawlers, and were all knocked out by Phantom Dharak.

After regaining consciousness with the other Brawlers, Shun witnesses Linehalt using his forbidden powers to restore the war torn Neathia. After Dan and Barodius battle, Shun and the Castle Knights arrive in time to see Dharak and Barodius take the Sacred Orb by force, but are ultimately destroyed by its power, and Drago's evolution. Fabia thanks the brawlers for all their help and they are sent home, leaving behind their Neathian Bakugan partners. Once back on Earth, they reunite with Julie and Dan's mom.

Bakugan: Mechtanium Surge

First Arc

Shun epi10-1 — Shun in Arc 1 of *Mechtanium Surge*

Shun reappears in Bakugan: Mechtanium Surge with Ventus Taylean. Shun is now the fourth strongest Brawler in Bakugan Interspace, behind Dan, Anubias, and Sellon, respectively. He is starting to get suspicious of what Dan and Drago are doing. Later, he is seen commenting on whether Drago and Zenthon are connected due to the timing.

He figures out that Dan is hiding something, but Dan keeps on making excuses. Later, during Dan's battle with Anubias, Shun and Marucho realize that Dan is holding Drago's power back and that is what he has been hiding, but they do not know why. In the preview, he also comments that things have been strange since they returned from Neathia and that if they do not figure out what to do with Dan and Drago's problems; the Brawlers could be destroyed for good.

He then battles alongside Dan against Sellon and Chris. He is later asked by Sellon to join Team Sellon, a proposition which he refuses.

Shun and Dan begin arguing about whether Dan and Drago should take a break from brawling, during which Shun makes clear that he no longer trusts Dan. Later, he is greeted by Sellon about her offer and about how to handle Dan's problems with "tough love". He and Marucho battle against the Tri-Twisters and are losing due to their underhanded tactics until Sellon and Anubias interfere.

Shun declares that he's tired of waiting for Dan and leaves, telling Taylean that it's time to give Dan the tough love that Sellon had suggested earlier. During this time, Shun stays out of Interspace, but Marucho finds him and tells him about the BakuNano. They return to Interspace, where Shun interrogates Dylan on the sudden appearance of the BakuNano, but learns that they appeared out of nowhere one day and was open to the public. Sellon later confronts Shun and tells him that the standards of battling have fallen and that someone like Shun could restore the honor in battling. She even suggests that with Dan's disappearance, Shun take up position of leader of the Brawlers. Shun suddenly leaves when he discovers Marucho is battling against the Bash Brothers and loses terribly because of their BakuNano. Shun intervenes and easily defeats them without using BakuNano himself. He speaks out to the crowd and announces that as the new leader of the Brawlers he will not stand for the new style of dangerous brawling accidently started by Dan and Drago. The crowd quickly responds positively to Shun's declaration, while Sellon reveals that Shun has fallen for her trap.

He easily began to dominate the battlefield, flawlessly taking down opponent after opponent. Marucho is impressed, but tells Shun that he should take a break; however, Shun brushes this off and says that if Marucho really wants to help, he'll find Shun another opponent. Ironically, Shun had told Dan that he should take a break, and Dan refused to listen, something that Shun is now emulating. Shun declares that as the new leader of the Brawlers, it's his job to get the Brawlers back on top.

In A Royale Pain, it is clear that Shun is pushing himself too hard with endless battle after battle in attempt to prove something as well as get the Brawlers back on top. He even joins a battle royale against Marucho's advice and battles against Robin and Soon. Paige and Rafe come to help him when Taylean creates Silent Strike, who wipes out the competition, giving Shun the win. After the match, Paige and Rafe call the brawlers weak and tell them what Mechtogan really are, angering Shun, who then leaves.

In Back in Sync, Shun overhears Paige and Rafe's conversation about how the Brawlers used to be and how Shun didn't want anything to do with them, as they want to help the Brawlers. He later watches Marucho's battle against Jack Punt. Taylean then asked whether they should go congratulate Marucho on his victory, to which Shun states they have their own battles to worry about.

In Mind Search, he competes in the Capture the Flag challenge. He attracts lots of battlers, including Chris and Soon, but he defeats them all. According to Marucho, he was counting on Shun to draw the majority of the battlers which would allow his plan with Rafe and Paige to work. When Shun sees that Marucho's plan was a complete success, he begins to wonder if he was wrong about his solution to save Bakugan Interspace by battling.

In Re-Connection, he battles Anubias and Marucho in a championship match. He wins both battles and with some convincing from Marucho, he sees the error in his ways and turns back to his old self, promising to work together from now on. During the battle, Shun suggested that he didn't want to be the leader in the first place when he said, "When Dan left us, someone had to step up and take over. Do you think I really wanted his job?"

In Triple Threat, Shun congratulates Paige for winning the battle and later battles Anubias and Robin with Marucho. He manages to defeat Robin, but his battle is interrupted by the Chaos Bakugan invading Bakugan Interspace.

During the Chaos Bakugan invasion of Interspace, Shun and the others tried to stop the invading force by deleting them from reality. He also received the BakuNano Hammermor from Rafe, although he didn't want it at first. He protected Team Anubias with Taylean when Dan and Drago lose control over Zenthon. After Drago was defeated by Team Anubias and Team Sellon's Bakugan, Marucho moved everyone out of Sector B of Bakugan interspace, and then proceeded to delete it. He is upset by Dan's return, as he acted arrogant and tried to reclaim his position as leader. Taylean told Shun not to lose focus of what he has to do. Shun agreed with the rest of the Brawlers to help Paige to save her home world from Mag Mel, who had begun to attack it.

Shun and the brawlers met up with Ren in Gundalia, and discussed a battle plan to counter Mag Mel's forces. They followed Marucho's plan, but Mag Mel uses his link with Dan to counter the plan, forcing the brawlers into a battle. When Mag Mel's Bakugan proves too much for the brawlers to handle, the Castle Knights arrive, forcing Mag Mel to retreat. Shun helps Dan off the battlefield after he and Drago were beaten by Mag Mel.

In Battle Lines, he stops Dan from going to Mag Mel on his own. Later he and Dan battle Anubias and Sellon. Shun is defeated, but Dan manages to defeat them.

In Unlocking the Gate, Shun battles Sellon and Anubias along with the other brawlers facing their Chaos Bakugan; however, their Mechtogan soon overwhelmed the Brawlers. Dan gave Shun and the other Brawlers a portion of his power and they summon their own Mechtogan. Taylean and Silent Strike work together to defeat the Mechtogan and the remaining Chaos Bakugan. Afterwards Shun and the others celebrate until they learn that Mag Mel and Razenoid are alive.

In True Colors, Shun and the brawlers return to Bakugan Interspace due to a distress call. Shun then battles Sellon after she reveals that she works for Mag Mel. When she tries to get Dan's Key by distracting Shun, Shun uses an ability card so he and Taylean can protect Dan while he battles Anubias. Shun defeats all of Sellon's Bakugan forcing her to retreat. However, in his battle with Sellon, he destroyed the last transport system, trapping those still in Bakugan Interspace.

In Dangerous Beauty, after Sellon is brought back by her former teammates, Shun tells them not to trust Sellon, but they plead that she should stay with them. A Flash Ingram attacks and Shun defeats it after learning its weakness from Sellon. Against Shun's judgement the brawlers allow Sellon to stay, Shun would then watch Sellon until Chaos Bakugan started attacking another portion of Bakugan Interspace, so he summons Silent Strike to finish them off. He goes back and finds Sellon took Dan's key, so then he chases after her to retrieve the key from her and defeats her three Bakugan with his Kazami-style ability cards. Before he could stop Sellon from leaving, Team Sellon stops him, allowing Sellon to leave.

In Unfinished Business, he and Dan are seen fighting against some of the Chaos Bakugan. After they finish the fight, they split up to battle more of the Chaos Bakugan. Shun later comes back and sees Dan talking to Anubias on his BakuColar. He then watches Dan's battle against Anubias and helps Noah understand what was going on in the battle. He later saw Anubias being absorbed by Mag Mel and see Dan's anguish, as he could do nothing for Anubias.

In Behind the Mask, Shun battled the Chaos Bakugan along with the other brawlers while Marucho tried to find a way to contact the outside world, and Dan battled Mag Mel through their link. Shun used two Kazami Style ability cards and defeated the Chaos Bakugan with Team Anubias. Soon told him there is no point, to which he replied that there is no point if she keeps up such an attitude, causing Soon and Chris to realize that Shun could be their new leader. Later, Shun was very shocked to hear from Dan that Barodius was really Mag Mel.

In Interspace Armageddon, Shun helps the brawlers distract the Chaos Bakugan so that the trapped brawlers can leave Interspace. He helps Soon and Chris when Mag Mel's Mechtagan appear as their power was useless against them. Shun would then call Silent Strike to aid him in battle. After Dan and Spectra team up to defeat most of the remaining Mechtagan he leaves Interspace with Paige and Rafe. He is shocked when he learns that Mag Mel found a way to get to earth as he sees a large sphere appear in the sky.

In Dark Moon, Shun is the second brawler to use the Battle Suit Blasterate, the first being Spectra. Shun summons Faser Titan and helped in the battle, and becomes the second brawler to reveal his Mechtogan Titan.

In The Final Takedown, Shun and Taylean continue to fight and ultimately defeat the Mechtogan Titans.

Second Arc

Screen Shot 2012-01-25 at 10.10 — Shun in the second arc of *Mechtanium Surge*

In Evil Arrival, Shun participates in the first season of the Neo Bakugan City Tournament along with Dan and Marucho, where he is matched up against Dan. In a short brawl, Shun loses the battle after Dan mimicked Shun's and Jaakor's battling style. He later took on a Mechtogan Destroyer with his new battling partner, but was defeated. He watches as Dan defeats the Mechtogan with his Mechtogan Destroyer.

In Wiseman Cometh, Shun, Dan, and Marucho brawled against Wiseman and his Nonet Bakugan and did a good job in the battle. However, they were eventually defeated alongside the other Battle Brawlers. Dragonoid Destroyer was then summoned and launched Shun's Jaakor and Reptak, Dan's new temporary Bakugan, allowing them to defeat Mechtavius Destroyer.

In The Prodigal Bakugan, Shun is seen training with Jaakor. After their training, they decide to rest, where Shun overheard Jaakor's students talking with him, asking him to go back to New Vestroia to help protect the other Bakugan. Although Shun tells Jaakor it was okay for him to leave, Shun was upset to see him go, and splits a rock with a kick. Once he was confronted by Wiseman, Shun puts up a fight against Spatterix and Stronk by using ninja moves on them, but then they figure out his strategy and were able to overpower him. Jaakor returns to save Shun and he defeats the two Bakugan with Shun's coaching. The two Bakugan then fuse together to become Scorptak and overwhelm Jaakor, as his attacks were ineffective against it. Jaakor fuses with his students to become Magmafury and defeats the fused Bakugan.

In Combination Impossible, Shun discusses his battle with Wiseman to the other brawlers and Jaakor's ability to fuse with other Bakugan. When he and Dan ask Marucho to discuss coming up with a strategy against Wiseman later on, Marucho states he has other plans. Shun didn't like the idea since Wiseman has been targeting the brawlers individually and wanted to tag along with him but Marucho refuses.

In Enemy Allies, Shun and the other Brawlers are questioned by Julie who wants a scope on Wiseman, but they don't tell her anything. He is later seen battling with the brawlers against Wiseman, with Jaakor helping defeating Wiseman's Bakugan. When Wiseman summons their Mechtogan the brawlers are nearly beaten, but Shun has Jaakor fuse with Orbeum and Skytruss to create Magmafury. Even with their combined power they were easily defeated, its only when Runo sends in the battle suits is when Shun was able to create an opening for the brawlers to attack Mechtavius Destroyer and defeat Wiseman.

In Battle for Bakugan Land, he is seen with Marucho discussing where Dan and Runo were, they would later see Dan battling Wiseman on TV and head to Bakugan Land to back him up. He is then seen with a group of people who wanted to support the Bakugan as they saw Julie being protected by one when Wiseman attacked.

Bakugan

He is a Ventus brawler. He approaches Bakugan like a ninja. He lives with his grandfather (who used to be a famous ninja warrior) who once expected Shun to follow in his footsteps instead of playing Bakugan. His first Guardian Bakugan is a Ventus-attribute Skyress whom Shun received from his now-comatose mother in the hospital.

In battle, Shun combines his knowledge of ninja skills and his Bakugan's natural abilities to outwit an opponent and win. In New Vestroia, he battles with Ingram, and wields a Bakugan Trap called Hylash. During the Neathian-Gundalian War, he worked with a Neathian Bakugan called Hawktor. Later on he used another Neathian Bakugan called Taylean. He now uses Jaakor.
