Hariru (Japanese: ハリル) is a villain in the Pokémon RéBURST manga. He is a member of the Great Gavel Organization and is one of their Seven Warriors.
Character
Hariru, at most times, is usually very calm and relaxed but will quickly become angry when provoked enough. In battle, Hariru proves that he is proficient in fooling the opponent with his illusionary abilities, reflecting the Pokémon he Bursts with.
History
Hariru first appears after Ryouga uses his Compass of Light to locate the Burst Heart that he was carrying with him. Hariru then turns around to see Ryouga waving hello to him from afar and notices the Compass of Light in his hands. He quickly kicks up a can from off of the ground and powerfully sends it flying towards Ryouga and his friends, making a huge crater in the wall behind them and cutting Ryouga's cheek.
Hariru then reveals that with the Compass of Light, Ryouga can find the person he was looking for, Arcades, if he collects the six "original Burst Hearts." Hearing that Hariru is looking for Arcades too, Ryouga tries befriending him. This action only angers Hariru who reveals that Arcades had destroyed his village and killed his father when he was only a child. He reveals that he is a member of Great Gavel and turns into his Burst form, a Zorua, and Ryouga does the same; the two begin battling.
After Ryouga punches Hariru into a building, Miruto is seen emerging from the smoke in his place, making Ryouga freeze in shock. Suddenly, "Miruto" kicks Ryouga and sends him flying. The real Miruto informs Ryouga that Hariru is using Zorua's Illusion ability to take on her form. The two continue battling and Hariru constantly confuses Ryouga throughout the battle with his illusionary abilities, ranging from taking on the appearance of someone else, to transforming items into something else to fool him into attacking it.
Eventually, Hariru emerges victorious, his skills being too strong for Ryouga to handle, and takes his Burst Heart. Next, another member of Great Gavel, Carola, arrives on the scene and takes it from Hariru. When Hariru protests to this, Carola replies that it was their bosses orders and gives it back to Miruto while telling her to not lose it; the two then make their leave.
He and Carola reappear to participate in the tournament for Burst Warriors, Burst Heart Survival. Using his Burst, Hariru passes the first round of BHS, the "Suddenly Bottomless Survival" and successfully moves onto the next round. In the second round, "Box Escape Survival", Hariru faces off against Rush, a Cofagrigus Burst Warrior. He swiftly defeats Rush and escapes the box, being the first one to do so. Having defeated his opponent, Hariru moves onto the third round along with the remaining nine contestants.
In the third round, "Add-up-to-ten Survival", Hariru is given the medal labeled 9, marking him as the first to leave their box from the previous round. After Ryouga defeats Dokan and takes his medal, Hariru shows up to fight him. Due to Ryouga's newly gained strength, he is now able to fight Hariru on even terms and can even take his Night Shadow Shot without being seriously hurt.
Eventually, their battle comes to a close when Ryouga uses the last of his remaining strength to fire one last attack at Hariru. Hariru confidently attempts to block the attack only to hear Carola's pained screams for him in the distance, distracting him long enough to be hit by the attack. Hariru emerges from the smoke and falls down defeated while Ryouga tiredly looks over him.

Burst
As a user of Burst, Hariru can use many of the abilities of the Pokémon he combines with, his Zorua. With Zorua's Illusion ability, Hariru can make himself or any object appear as something or someone else in order to fool the opponent into lowering their guard, allowing him to strike when their guard is down. Also, Hariru has enhanced hearing, allowing him to listen to sounds from far away. In addition to his Burst abilities, Hariru possesses great physical strength and is strong enough to kick something as small and light as a can into a wall and make a somewhat sizable crater.
Known techniques
Night Shadow Shot (Japanese: 闇影射球, literally Dark Shadow Shot Sphere, read as ナイトシャドーショット, Night Shadow Shot). While in his Burst form, Hariru glows with energy and forms a sphere of darkness in between his hands. He then throws it onto the ground and kicks it at his opponent, creating a powerful explosion.
