Well, that's what I assumed really.

Edit: I just noticed that Vaados had this really smug look on her face when Whis calls her out on if she knew Beerus and Champa would get into a fight, as though she just wanted to stir things up for shits and giggles.

Makes me wonder about her now.

I thought what Toriyama said was that Goku views his family as companions.

I'm honestly wondering if Vados is some true villain behind-the-scenes. Whis is stronger than Beerus, and is obviously faithful to him, but we can't say the same for Vados.

The *Legendary* Super Saiyan is motivated by a crying infant! He is a literal giant f***ing baby!

Besides Yamcha being #21 on that list, can I also point out that Syn Shenron ranks higher than Omega Shenron?

I honestly want Vados to be the final villain of this saga.

That seems like a really weird random thing to say at this point.

On that DBH list, Yamcha is somehow above Skot, Syn Shenron (Base, Omega), Whis, Runaway Mira, Resurrected Dabura, LSSJ3 Broly AND Angered Beerus.

Don't underestimate the Japanese DB fandom. tongue

Also, if Ultimate Gohan is around/above SSJ3 Goku, and SSJ4 Goku is even stronger than that, then surely SSJ4 Gohan would be far beyond is own full potential.

[up]Syn Shenron is also listed higher than Omega Shenron. tongue

I wonder if Cell could have had an oozaru form if there'd been a moon to activate it. I mean, he does still have his tail.

Speaking of Cell, I've been wondering for some time, could Piccolo fuse with him? He has Namekian cells after all.

Possibly. Though it might be more like how Cell could absorb the Androids in this case.

Since Cell has Piccolo's cells, that would technically make Cell a Fighter-type Namekian. So theoretically they could fuse.

So why did The Nameless Namekian splitting result in two different types of Namekians?

I think splitting in general might has a different set of rules compared to fusing, but in case it doesn't I think Demon King Piccolo was a Dragon-Clan type like Kami was. Piccolo Jr. is a fighting type because he is a reincarnation.

...But Kami was a Dragon Clan, right? So how did Piccolo fusing with Kami work then?

They were originally one being, so it isn't the same as regular Namekian fusion.

Demon King Piccolo and Kami were Dragon Type. Piccolo Jr. is Fighter Type because he's still his own person.

Question: why doesn't Piccolo ever do the limb stretching and growing techniques anymore?

Not that useful I'd imagine.

He often fights enemies who wouldn't be hurt by his punches anyway, so him stretching his arms just results in them either dodging with ease, or him hitting them, the attack having no effect, and then losing an arm in the middle of a fight.

Growing to a giant was shown to be impractical in a fight when Piccolo faced Goku for the last time.

It's like a 2x multiplier on a 30x size increase. Not worth the extra mass.

Yeah, thinking back, Piccolo going giant would run into the same problems as when Trunks and Cell went into those bulkier forms. Plus, it'd make Piccolo a bigger target, and he'd be taken down easier. Just look at when Demon King Piccolo got his chest plowed through by Goku, that wouldn't happen if he was smaller.

Though this doesn't seem to be much of a problem for Oozarus.

Wonder why that is?

Oozaru is a much larger multiplier.
