Explain more in depth how they can be switched, what they look like in both modes(this is very important), and what difference they make

Weight:4.2g

SW145 has three wings which can be removed and "Switched" to have either Defensive or Offensive properties. It is switched by removing the Bottom and pulling the wings down. The wings on this Track are shaped in a pattern that is similar to the blades of a fan. When in Attack mode, the Tip of the wings face Counter Clock-Wise. When in Defense mode, the tips faces Clock-Wise. Although this seems like a good concept, it fails badly in both areas and the difference in performance is negligible. Better choices for Attack would be would be 85, 100, or CH120. Better choices for Defense would be GB145, R145, or 230.

You don't have to use my edits if you don't want to, but you can also make edits to my edits, I don't mind.

Quote:Metal Wheel: Poison

Weight: 29.6g

Poison was first released with Poison Serpent SW145SD. It is predominantly circular, with fifteen small spikes on its circumference. The Wheel is relatively thin throughout. Due to the design of Poison, its perimeter is raised slightly, and more of the Track below is exposed compared to other Wheels, similar to Flame. This makes it easier for other Beyblades to strike its Track, and the mix in characteristics makes it mediocre in all areas and the performance similar to dark.

The regular release of Serpent is a green, translucent piece. It has several notches and protrusions. The design features many snakes overlapping each other.

Bottom: Semi-Defense

Weight: 0.5 grams

Just as the Semi-Flat Bottom has a sharper tip than Flat, so too does Semi-Defense when compared to Defense. Before the release of SD, D was the absolute best Stamina Bottom available, but SD quickly took over the top spot.

SD is not able to wobble as much as D, so for defensive purposes, D should still be chosen over SD if you are trying to add some Stamina to your Defense custom. That being said, WD would be a better choice than D for that situation, and also arguably for Stamina as well because with the even wider tip. With it, it is allowed to circle the stadium in some situations when it is on a larger angle towards the end of a battle, thus outspinning D or SD based opponents. However, sometimes this does not happen, and SD easily knocks over the wobbling WD custom before it topples over itself.

It really comes down to personal preference when deciding whether to use SD or WD because they are so closely matched. For pure Stamina it impossible to tell which would win a given match, but WD would prepare you for more situations by being able to take hits better than SD. Test both and decide for yourself which one works best for what you are trying to do.

Use in Stamina Customs.

SD has many uses in Top-Tier Stamina Customs. In Takara Tomy Stadiums, SD can be used in the following Stamina Customs.
-Virgo DF145SD
-Burn Bull DF145SD
-Earth Bull DF145SD

Overall

Poison Serpent's only competitive part is SD, which can be obtained from the infinitely more useful Dark Bull H145 SD. There is little to no point in buying this Beyblade other than for collection purposes.
