Parts Overview[]

Face: Wolf[]

The Face Bolt depicts "Lupus", one of the 88 constellations in space. The design features a wolf with an open mouth (presumably howling), and the word "WOLF" inside its mouth. This word is omitted in some Hasbro releases, such as Burn Wolf SW145WD and Earth Wolf 105WD.

Clear Wheel: Wolf[]

Four howling wolves unleash wild and rapid attacks.

  • Weight: 3 grams

The original release of Wolf is a dark brown, translucent plastic wheel. The edges of the Clear Wheel consists of 4 wolf 'heads', one in each quarter of the clear wheel, representing the body form of a Wolf, the symbol its design is influenced by.

Metal Wheel: Dark[]

This Balance type fusion wheel deals rapid precision attacks combined with good deflection.

  • Weight: 31.4 grams

Dark has twelve spikes facing the clockwise direction. These protrusions are closely packed together with minimal space between each, resulting in an overall round shape. This shape hinders the Metal Wheel in two ways: its protrusions are not pronounced enough to provide sufficient Smash Attack, while the perimeter is interrupted too frequently for sufficient Stamina. Additionally, its weight is distributed over too large a surface area. There is thus no reason to use Dark in any competitive situation whatsoever.

Track: DF145 (Down Force)[]

Increases stability.

  • Weight: 1.5 grams

DF145 has four upward facing wings protruding from the top of the Track, which aside from giving it extra weight are meant to push air downwards. It is on par with 145, while AD145 is superior by a small margin when used in Stamina combinations.

Use in Stamina Customization[]

If the aforementioned parts aren't accessible, DF145 can still be put to good use in the custom, Scythe Kronos DF145WD.

Tip: FS (Flat Sharp)[]

Provides a good balance of attack and stamina.

  • Weight: 0.6 grams

FS features a flat tip with a smaller, sharper tip in the centre. As a result, when launched at a straight angle, the Beyblade spins on this sharp tip, with very little movement. However, when tilted, either from the contact of an opposing Beyblade or from the launch, the Bottom moves in an offensive pattern. However, it suffers from the same problems as other Balance Bottoms, in that the two qualities are compromised, resulting in mediocre performance in both fields.

Anime[]

It was first used in episode 3, to defeat Benkei Hanawa and the Face Hunters's beys and later Rock Leone 145 WB so Kyoya would temporarily join the Dark Nebula.

In episode 11, he used it to badly damage Rock Leone and knock Kyoya out.

In episode 12, it battled Storm Pegasus 105 RF and lost even while using a special move.

In episode 46, it battled a Clay Leone 145 D, Rock Aries ED145 B, and a shattered Flame Sagittario C145 S and defeated them all easily.

In episode 47, It battles Burn Phoenix and seems to be winning until Phoenix saw the piece of Sagittario stuck in Wolf's blades. He then used Burning Fire Strike to stab Wolf with the piece and severely damage it, winning the battle.

In episode 48, It battles Lightning L Drago , and loses in its weakened state, actually getting broken in two.

Special Attacks[]

  • Dark Void: Many tentacles stretch out from Wolf, grab the opponent, and pull them into a pit of darkness. This bey is possible to defeat since it is equal in attack, stamina, balance, and defense.

In Combat[]

Dark Wolf was released in Wave 1. It is a Balance Type.
