English dubs done by the Ocean Group.

Known as the "Big Green Dub" for their decision to rename Piccolo "Big Green". Not just as a nickname, but as his actual name.

I don't think that was Ocean, actually.

Ocean Group was the first American dub, right? The one with "being sent to another dimension?"

IIRC Big Green is the Singaporean dub?

No, it's the AB Group.

I just want to say I really like the idea of a Saiyan-specific toxin/disease forcing the humans to take charge.

Though the threat would at least still have to be a challenge for Piccolo and 18 for there to be any tension.

If it's a threat to Piccolo then 18 couldn't handle it. She apparently actually is weaker than 17 and Piccolo should now be stronger than 17 by some unknown degree.

Let the joy of love give you an answer! Check out my book!

Also, there's Mr Boo.

Remove the Saiyans from the equation and there is still a really lopsided power distribution in the rest of the cast.

[up] Yes, she's weaker than 17, and Piccolo is much stronger than 17 after his RoSaT training.

Hell, among the humans, Kuririn got a huge power up that put him at the level the others never reached, Chaozu fell behind and Yamcha couldn't compare to Tenshinhan. So even if you manage to make them the only ones capable of dealing with a situation, they're not even in the same league as each other.

I like the idea that Mr. Boo could be stronger if he trained, but he can't be assed because he has a puppy to play with and food to eat, and Mr. Satan to hang out with.

It's adorable, for some reason.

[up][up] Yes. Ten never surpassed Kuririn after Namek.

Although, I guess he could have eventually gotten close enough that they'd be in a similar league.

So...

Instead of a scientist creating the toxin that puts down the Saiyans, it's a wizard! A wizard who also found Bibidi's notes on Buu and managed to find a way to re-seal Buu, but the method doesn't work for anyone else. Failing that, have Buu be incredibly weakened because he recently created Ms. Buu or something.

Also, the toxin affects Namekians, but at a reduced level, making Piccolo weaker, but still able to be relevant.

Offscreen, Tien, Yamcha and Chiaotzu got their power unlocked by the new Guru because he wanted to test his ability to do it or something and they volunteered to be the test subjects.

18 is present and the strongest fighter readily available, so of course she gets caught up fighting the Big Bad's superstrong Dragon that is empowered by the Big Bad's magic, while everyone else has to deal with said Big Bad's mooks.

[up][up] There was a V-Jump scan that said Unlock Potential!Krillin's full power was 75k. Not sure how official it is, but it'd put him above Zarbon and probably at least some of the Ginyus.

Bulma could cannibalize some Gero tech and build a Sentai-style super suit, or something.

Make a weapon that uses time travel technology to create an alternate timeline and then steal that timeline's super spirit bomb or one of whis's attacks or something.

Time machine gun. Channels an attack from every timeline instance of a person, all at once, for a super powerful attack.

Idea!

The villain has time travel magic, and strands Goku and Vegeta in some alternate hell timeline where they're fighting for their lives against Gero-created Buu-Cell Monsters (Patent Pending).

Then, you have the rest of the cast fighting the baddy, and Bulma building a time machine to save Goku and Vegeta, thus giving Bulma something to do.
