He can also be a hypocrite as while he criticized Volt for throwing out Brontes, following his win over Volt Luster, he decided to threw Alto Brontes out like the trash as Mylene Farrow did leaving Brontes to never be found.

Biography[]
Past[]
Gus used to be a brawler fighting on his own, and one that was a force to be reckoned with. In a tournament in Alpha City one day, however, he fought with and lost against Spectra Phantom and his Helios After this fight, Spectra asked him to join his forces and help improve the world's state, which Gus agreed.
Bakugan Battle Brawlers: New Vestroia[]
Gus first appears with the other Vexos watching as the Bakugan get captured. Later, he is seen with the Vexos talking to Prince Hydron about the powerful Drago.
Gus later calls the Vexos to a meeting to tell them they have all failed. This angers Shadow Prove, who calls Gus a freak. After lots of arguing, Spectra lets Gus go to fight the Resistance. He meets Dan Kuso in the desert and asks him what he will gain by saving the Bakugan, and after insulting his status as a amateur, he leaves, reporting to Spectra and how Dan is such a child. Gus later confronts Dan again, revealing himself as a member of the Vexos and challenges him to a brawl. Dan struggles to beat Vulcan, thus causing him to lose the fight. Spectra congratulates Gus on his victory, much to the other's jealousy. Despite this, Hydron remains unhappy due to not having Drago, so Gus deicides to battle Dan again to get Drago and make Spectra proud.
Later, Gus sends a message to Dan via hologram, challenging him to a rematch. The Bee leads Dan to Gus, where they fight. Vulcan beats Drago in the first round and Dan pays him back in the next round by having Scorpio and Drago battle Vulcan together. Before the third round starts, Spectra joins the battle, as he wants to see Drago's powers, using his Hyper Dragonoid to assist Gus in fighting Dan. Vulcan stops Drago's ability to beat Hyper Dragnoid, but Shun Kazami assists Dan in his victory.
Gus later appeared with the Vexos as superstars in Alpha City, known as the Relentless Gus. After the show was over, Gus asked the guards if there was anything to report, with them reporting members of the Resistance sneaking backstage.
Some time after, Gus Grav joins Spectra in talking to Professor Clay about the cards coming from the human world, which was due to Runo's actions. The three later hear Runo's voice and decide to investigate. While Shadow fights Marucho, Gus and Spectra hide near a rock, with Spectra telling that Gus doesn't need to head through the portal, but Gus insists otherwise. As Spectra and Gus approach it, Lync Volan blocks the portal, reminding them that Prince Hydron had not given his consent for them to leave. Gus and Spectra ignore him, however, and go through it regardless.
When the three Vexos arrive on Earth, Spectra kidnaps Runo after a talk. While the Brawlers pursue Spectra, Gus overhears Lync talking ill on Spectra and confronts him. After an argument, Gus challenges Lync to a fight, but before they can, Barron and Mira interrupt, asking where Spectra is. Due to this, Gus runs away causing Mira to chase him until he reaches his master. He tells Dan how Hydron is the main foe they are after and if the Resistance took down Hydron, they could end his rule. Gus also says Spectra and him only want the Resistance to join them so Spectra could overthrow Hydron and take over New Vestroia with Gus at his side. Alice arrives using the card formerly belonging to Masquerade and takes the two back to the lab where they get sent to New Vestroia.
Gus and Spectra return to Earth by tracking Dan's gauntlet to the amusement park. They catch the attention of humans and are discovered by Mira and Juile. When the girls catch up to them, Mira Fermin challenges Spectra to a fight, which Spectra accepts, letting Gus fight for him. During the fight, Gus originally has the upper hand through his strategies and his Hexados, but Mira eventually wins. Spectra reveal himself due to this failure, even with Gus' warnings.
Gus is later shown to be living in a warehouse with Spectra. He comes in one day telling Spectra about the advent of juice boxes on Earth, only to find him missing. When his master returns, Gus shows worry, but Spectra shuts him up. Gus then tells Spectra why they need the Resistance to join them when he's as good a fighter as all of them, except Dan. Spectra tells him it's their Bakugan they need, mainly Drago, and decides to battle Dan for it. Before Dan and Spectra's battle, Gus begs his master to help him fight him, but Spectra says it's his fight alone and he will come out victorious which he does in the end.
After getting Drago, Gus tells Spectra that their plan to take over New Vestroia will soon come to be. He gets shocked when Dan, Mira, Runo Juile, and Barron enter the warehouse, demanding Spectra face Dan. Gus taunts the hero, saying he won't be able to beat Spectra and win back Drago, but is proven wrong.
Gus and Spectra then plan on heading back to New Vestroia, with the latter deicing to bring Lync alongside him. Lync meets the two near Wardintion where Gus demands that he show Spectra respect. He traps Dan and the Brawlers (minus Mira) in a cage and she leaves with the three Vexos after revealing she is Spectra's sister.
When they return to New Vestroia, Gus taunts the others on how they used Apollonir to get back, although Volt Luster doesn't believe him. He then watches Shadow and Mylene Farrow battle Barron and Dan. He gets impressed when Hades takes out Nemus, but after Mylene loses, she blames Spectra for freeing Shun, Ace, and Marucho, but Gus defends his master, saying she lost and not him. Gus later tells Mira to have dinner with Spectra and watches their conversation by the door. After Spectra leaves, Gus shows concern, telling him that it wasn't smart to let Mira know their plan. However, Spectra says that Mira will come around to help them and tells Gus to trust his judgement.
The day after Mira becomes a member of the Vexos and after losing to Spectra, Gus and Spectra show Lync and Mira trap Bakugan that are ruthlessly obedient to Spectra. Spectra tells him and Mira to use the traps to battle Ace and Dan bringing there bakugans data. Gus is unsure but Spectra tells him it is worth it. Once the brawlers get to Gamma City, Dan, and Aceface off against Gus and Mira, who use the trap Mechnal Bakugan to give Dan and Ace a hard time. However, Mira loses on purpose and allows Dan to overpower Gus. Gus reports the loss to Spectra, who has plans of his own for Mira.
While Spectra battles Dan outside Gamma City, Gus overhears Volt, Mylene, and Shadow planning on betraying Spectra and taking Professor Clay with them. Gus goes to Lync, having him go to Spectra for him beliving he is still on their side. However, Lync double-crosses him, knocking him out and locking him up in a room. Gus escapes and uses Vulcan to find Spectra before Vestial's palace explodes. He finds Elico and Brontes, who were thrown out by Melene. Gus than saves Spectra from being killed in the palace and lets him know that Mylene was going to blame everything on him.
A few months later, Spectra and Gus use Chaos Ability X on Vulcan, Brontes, and Elico, causing them to evolve into stronger versions of themselves while Helios also evolvs. Gus lets Spectra know that the brawlers will be heading to Vestroia, so Spectra and Gus arrive right before Dan and Volt's fight. While Spectra confronts Dan, Gus tells Volt that he changed Brontes into a solder of his, much to Volt's anger. After Spectra loses to Dan, Mira, and Marucho, he and his master leave, but Gus later sets up a brodcast for Spectra to appear on tv and lie about his intentions. After that, Gus is shown telling Spectra that the report was a sucess.
Gus later reports to Spectra on how Brontes is growing stronger and will soon be a loyal solder in his army. Volt later calls him, demanding a battle to get Bronies back, which Gus excepts. Spectra says that Volt may betray the Vexos if he wants Brontes badly enough, but the two still meet up on a empty planet and battle. Gus introduces Volt to Bronites new form and shows him and Volt's new Bakugan Boriates no mercy. During the battle Gus calls Volt out on making the BT system and offers him a spot on Spectra's side. Volt refuses because he is a Vexos and not a trader like Gus. Volt loses after Gus uses a combination of the Gate Card Land Pressure and Brontes's new ability Trance Rapture Illusion. Gus looks at Volt beaten and saying he does not understand his motives. He then returned to Spectra and telling him that he was unsuccessful in getting Volt to join them. He then throws Brontes back into New Vestroia saying that, "You have served your purpose, but now I am done with you".
Later on he lets Spectra know that the Vexos have found the Brawlers location and are going after the remaining attribute energies. Spectra, however, sees this as a good thing and has Gus send Dan to his ship where the two of them battle. After Dan defeats Spectra in a battle, Spectra and Gus agree to accompany the Resistance to the Vexos' palace. Spectra then goes to the command bridge and talks to Gus about an anonymous source that gave him information. He reveals shortly that by using data on Bakugan evolution, he planned to bring out even further power from within the Bakugan.
The Bralwers Spectra and Gus arrive at the Motherplace where they tells the Bralwers that they are on their own in stoping the Vexos then head over to confront King Zenoheld. Zenoheld insults Spectra causing Gus to demand that Vexos stop only for Spectra to make him be quiet saying that they need to make a good counterargument. Zenoheld orders Spectra to leave and they depart. but Gus reenters and challenges Zenoheld to a brawl after the Vexos insult and accuse Spectra. He loses at the end of the episode, and he presumably lost his life, along with Rex Vulcan. Blast Elico and Hexados however actually died trying to protect him and Vulcan. His last words were to Spectra and wishing him farewell. In the en,d he apparently learned what Dan had tried to tell him from their first encounter about how much friendship matters because when King Zenoheld told him their battle would cost him everything as Farbros gets ready to kill him, Gus laughed and said: "No matter what happens you'll never take away the bond of loyalty and friendship that I share with Master Spectra!" and he was greatly upset when Blast Elico and Hexados were destroyed and when Rex Vulcan's armor was cracked, not to mention he apparently grew a giant bond of friendship with Vulcan.
Following Gus's loss Spectra joins up with Dan and battles Zenoheld to make him pay.
