-Yamcha-

(Kinda looks like Goku doesn't he?)

Yamcha is an original Dragonball character {Seen first on "Curse of the Blood Rubies"} His first encounter with Goku enters a battle between the two of them, (Goku calls him Lamb Chop in that one) Anyway he meets Bulma, they are a couple and he takes on the good side and fights alongside Goku and the others in Dragonball.

When Dragonball Z begins Yamcha is informed of Goku's death by Kurillin, and warned of the Siayans coming to earth. Yamcha joins Gohan, Kurillin, and the others on the battle field. He is first to take on a Saibaman, and fares pretty well, until the Saibaman goes "Kamakazi" {as Piccolo put it} and ends up blowing up itself as well as Yamcha. So he "dies" and is in another dimension.

When the battle over the Saiyans is over Yamcha, Tien, Piccolo, and Chiaotzu meet and train on King Kia's Planet.

Piccolo is wished back, and the others stay there, Yamcha is very angry because he wasn't wished back, but soon puts his faith in Piccolo.
Later on after Frieza is beaten, he is wished back to earth along with Tien and Chiaotzu.
