Beyblade X CrocoTread Guide

CrocoTread TQ5-50GN is product code CX-19, a Random Booster Select releasing in Japan on 12 September 2026 at ¥1,600. Official copy calls it a Defense-type Beyblade combining a rapid-strike shaped Blade — designed to disperse impact from every direction — with a low-profile Ratchet that keeps the centre of gravity low. It ships mainly through a Takara Tomy Mall lottery (entries closed 16 August 2026, results announced 26–28 August), and is also listed for import pre-order by overseas resellers ahead of the street date. Every unit contains one complete CrocoTread TQ5-50GN in one of three colourways — nothing else in the box changes.

What "Select" actually randomises

CX-19 is a Select-format booster, not a "Vol." one. The Random Booster guide covers the Vol. line, where a single assortment holds six different Beyblades with uneven pull rates. Select works differently: the Blade, Ratchet and Bit are fixed and guaranteed every time — Croco Lock Chip, TQ Blade, 5-50 Ratchet, GN Bit, right-spin — and the only thing decided by the pull is which of three reported colourways (gold/green, red/blue and black/red, per third-party coverage — check the box before assuming a specific one) you get. Confirm the exact colour split against the official CX-19 page or your listing rather than this or any other secondary source.

From attack to defence: the Croc line's shift

CrocoTread succeeds CrocoCrunch 2-60Q, an Attack-type Blade from earlier in the CX line. Despite keeping the aggressive crocodile theme, CrocoTread moves the design to Defense — official stats list the full Blade at Attack 15, Defense 67, Stamina 18, with the 5-50 Ratchet (Attack 10, Defense 9, Stamina 11) and GN Bit (Attack 20, Defense 40, Stamina 10, Dash 30, Burst 30) built for absorbing hits rather than landing them. See the Gear Bits guide for what the GN letter and its extended-gear Xtreme-rail behaviour mean for a build.

What the Blade-Ratchet pairing is for

The official claim is impact dispersal, not stamina or a promised matchup win: a many-contact-point Blade spreads a hit across its shape instead of taking it on one edge, and the 5.0 mm 5-50 Ratchet keeps that shape close to the stadium floor. That is a geometry story you can test once you have the part, not a guaranteed result against every Bit or launch style. The CX system guide has the background on how a CX combo's Lock Chip, Blade, Ratchet and Bit fit together if CX-19 is your first CX part.

Buying and event checks

CX-19 needs a Beyblade X stadium and launcher, sold separately. Because it is a lottery-first release, expect resale and import listings to carry a premium over ¥1,600 until general stock settles — see the Beyblade X shortage guide before paying well above MSRP. Confirm current availability, price and colourway odds on the official CX-19 page or your retailer's listing before buying, and check event rules if you're entering a Select-format booster into a tournament.

Frequently asked questions

Is the CrocoTread you get random?

Only the colourway. CX-19 is a Select-format booster, so the Blade, Ratchet and Bit are the same CrocoTread TQ5-50GN every time — the pull decides which of three reported colourways you receive, not which Beyblade.

Is CrocoTread an Attack or Defense type?

Defense. It succeeds CrocoCrunch 2-60Q, an earlier Attack-type Blade in the Croc line, and shifts the theme to absorbing hits with a rapid-strike shaped Blade and a low-profile Ratchet.

When and how was CX-19 released?

Japan, 12 September 2026, at ¥1,600. It sold mainly through a Takara Tomy Mall lottery with entries closing 16 August 2026, alongside import pre-orders from overseas resellers.

What parts come with CX-19?

A Croco Lock Chip, the TQ Blade (Over Blade T, Metal Blade Tread, Assist Blade Q), a 5-50 Ratchet and a GN (Gear Needle) Bit, right-spin — the complete set regardless of which colourway you pull.
