Special Techniques

Body Change

First Appeared:Volume #24.


Who Can Preform This Technique:Captain Ginyu


Characteristics:When he shouts "Change Now!"Captain Ginyu puts himself in front of his opponent and a ray is emitted for his mouth. The ray goes into the adversary's mouth, when this happens a Captain Ginyu's spirit will go into his adversary's and his adversary's will go into his body. They switch bodies. Sometimes it takes a little while for Captain Ginyu to get used of the new body which he obtained. Th body which we see as Captain Ginyu might not be his own due to the fact that he can change bodies with anyone. Why not use this on Frieza???(Trunten's note- Because Freiza's a queer and Ginyu's got style!)


Anime:When Captain Ginyu is a frog he uses a machine which was made by Bulma that can change any language into English. Captain Ginyu must use English for the Body Change to work. Captain Ginyu then uses the technique on Bulma and it works. Thanks to Gohan, Bulma gets back her body.

Regeneration

First Appeared:Volume #16


Who Can Preform This Technique:Piccolo, Nail, Cell, Boo.


Characteristics:This technique allows you to regain body parts as long as the brain isn't not touched. People from the Planet Namek(not Mr.E, or SkullMac)have the characteristics to regenerate themselves. if a person regenerates their whole bodies becomes what it originaly was, but hey lose a lot of energy from this. When Cell learns that he could do this he becomes veryproud and uses this very often. Boo, is a bit of an exception if there is the smallest piece of his body he can regenerate.(But I don't get it, Goku's Kamehameha blows Cells head and a bit of his torso off!)


Anime:Piccolo, against his fight with Slug he rips off his own ears and then he regenerated them.

Rocket Punch

First Appeared:Volume #5


Who Can Preform This Technique:Andriod #16, The Metallic Sergeant.


Characteristics:This attack must be done by a person who is not human. The Rocket Punch, must be aimed at the opponent and then shot at the adversary. This attack is very strong, Andriods #16 uses this against Cell to defend Andriods #17 and #18. The Rocket Punch is also very affective because the opponent is not expecting such an attack. The Metallic Sergeant protects the second floor of The Muscle Tower. He uses this attack just before his batteries die. Of course this attack doesn't affect Goku.

Solar Flare(Taiyoken)


First Appeared:Volume #11.


Who Can Preform This Technique:Tienshinhan, Krillin, Goku, and Cell.


Characteristics:The first time we see this technique is at the 22nd Tournament, Tenshinhan uses this against Goku in the finals, but because Goku saw this in a previous battle he knew how to prevent this attack from hurting his sight. To prevent the damage Goku stole Master Roshi's sunglasses, pretty smart, huh?(it is really too bad Ranchi wasn't that smart)To preform this technique, you must concentrate all of your energy into your face, and transform it into pure light. This leaves your opponent blind and dizzy, therefore much easier to hit the opponent, but it only lasts for a couple of seconds, that is one of its defaults. The strength of this technique depends on the concentration of the person using it. Goku uses this technique against Vegeta on Earth to stall him, and to give him enough time to make a very strong Spirit Bomb. Krillin uses this technique as well, when Dadoria was chasing him, Gohan, and Dendé. This technique is over used in my opinion. I mean it is used against Piccolo by Cell in Volume #31. It is a helpful technique, even though it is still over used. (Trunten's Note- Badman's just a bloody complainer, heh)
