Anime

Bakugan Battle Brawlers: New Vestroia

In Final Fury, Sabator was seen with Dharak, Krakix, Strikeflier, Lumagrowl, and Lythirus battling and winning against the Castle Knights's Bakugan in a video that Clay Fermin received from Fabia Sheen (although at the time, it was from an anonymous source).

Bakugan: Gundalian Invaders

In A New Beginning, he appeared properly for the first time in Dan Kuso's vision after he and Helix Dragonoid were knocked out in their battle against Ren Krawler and Linehalt, fighting the Castle Knights and their Bakugan alongside the rest of the Twelve Orders Bakugan and beating them all.

He also appears in a flashback in Revelation when Ren lies to the Battle Brawlers that Neathia invaded Gundalia.

He reappears in Exposed, in a flashback when Marucho Marukura and Ren Krawler were talking about the war between the Gundalians and the Neathians.

In The Sacred Orb, he fought against the Castle Knights Bakugan alongside Lumagrowl, Lythirus, Strikeflier, Kraxix and various Bakugan belonging to brainwashed kids such as Bee Striker and Ramdol to try and destroy the Second Security Shield. He ends up getting blasted by Lumitroids and a Damakor and feels no damage. After punching them hard he beats them all. An army of Haos Luxtors attacked him though he beat them and said this was to easy. He ended up battling Coredem with the later calling him his worst nightmare. The two brawled in a head to head clash and Nurzak realized Sabator was evenly matched in the battle. He managed to knock his opponent down. Later on in the battle, he was transported back to Gundalia by the Sacred Orb with the rest of the Twelve Orders.

In Decoy Unit Sabator and Nurzak are introduced to the Battle Brawlers as the Subterra team in the Twelve Orders by Captain Elright. He also appears in a flashback with Karxix and Dharak as Fabia worries what will happen to the third shield.

In The Secret of the Orb Sabator asked Nurzak about his thoughts on the Sacred Orb when Nurzak and Ren Krawler went on a mission for Kazarina. Nurzak explains that Barodius is going on a foolish quest. Later on, he battled against Akwimos and Aranaut while tagging with Linehalt. He and Aranaut sit round one out due to Marucho Marukura wanting to fight Ren alone which Akwimos wins. In round 2, he appears and gets ready to charge at his opponent's. Aranaut and Akwimos get ready to attack, but he uses Brute cap wilder and knocks the Neathian Bakugan down. He then uses Destroy Horn which Akwimos blocks with Heal blue. Sabator then charges at Akwimos knocking him down again. Then everyone uses their battle Gear where Chompixx first appears. The battle gear abilities cause major damage. But before they could finish their battle the Sacred Orb sent out a Dimensional Twister and he and Linehalt were forced to retreat, or they would have been bounced around Dimensions. After returning Nurzak told Sabator he learned a lot about the power of the Orb and asked Ren what he learned.

In Divide and Conquer, he battled Dharak with Chompixx. He won the first round by using a Level 3 Class Battle Gear ability, but near the end of the battle, when Dharak used AirKor, he and Nurzak were transported to an unknown place between dimensions.

He and Nurzak joined the Brawlers at Neathia after Dan defeated Dragonoid Colossus in Genesis.

In Redemption, he battled against Lythirus and Lumagrowl alongside Aranaut. During Round 2 when Plitheon Phosphos and Contestir join their opponent's side, Lythirus tries to drown the group, but he grabs Nurzak hoping to rescue him, but when Nurzak goes to help Fabia he and Nurzak ended up being swept down the channel, and are presumed dead for a while.

In Gundalian Showdown, it is shown that he and Nurzak are still alive thanks to Mason Brown finding them.

In Broken Spell, he takes out several Impalatons, alongside Avior with his ability Destroy Horn. He was mistakenly called Haos Sabator in this episode.

In Code Eve he and Nurzak start his ship while Fabia and Mason stay on ground and have Aranaut and Avior fight Krakix under gills orders who wants them killed, before heading off to Neathia. He then battled Phantom Dharak, Strikeflier, Lythirus and other Gundalian Bakugan alongside Rubanoid, Phosphos, Blitz Dragonoid, Raptorix, Contestir, Akwimos, Hawktor, Coredem, Plitheon, Linehalt, Dragonoid Colossus Avior, Aranaut and other Neathian Bakugan. He later tried to battle Phantom Dharak but was defeated by Lythirus.

In Destiny Revealed he headed back to Gundalia along with Nurzak and Ren's Team to help form a new government.

Trivia

Sabator is based off the Minotaur, a Greek mythological creature with head of a bull and body of a man.
His real form is considerably darker than his ball form, like most season 1 Subterra Bakugan.
In Bakugan form he looks similar to Saurus.
He is one of the two Bakugan in the Twelve Orders to not fight Drago in Gundalian Invaders, another one being Plitheon.
For unknown reasons he does not appear in Bakugan Battle Brawlers: Mechtanium Surge despite Nurzak appearing. It’s possible that, considering the changes Nurzak did to Gundalia’s government, that Nurzak stopped battling altogether which in itself doesn’t fit the Gundalian society, especially considering how powerful Sabator proved to be.
