Telekinesis

, also called , is a technique that allows the user to manipulate objects and other people with the power of one's mind.
==Overview==
The first use of telekinesis is seen when General Blue uses his Psychic Eyes while fighting with Krillin and Goku. He uses it to pin them down and disable their movements, but Goku manages to break free as soon as Blue is distracted by a mouse. General Blue later uses telekinesis on ropes to tie up Goku and his friends at Kame House. He later uses his paralyzing technique on Goku once again but ends up being headbutted by Arale Norimaki. Blue later attempts to use it on Mercenary Tao, but Tao revealed himself to be unaffected by it.
Telekinesis is later seen twice during the 22nd World Martial Arts Tournament by Chiaotzu. Chiaotzu uses telekinesis in his match against Krillin, to directly attack Krillin's internal organs without touching him. Later in the tournament, during Goku's match against Tien Shinhan, Chiaotzu is ordered by Master Shen to repeatedly paralyze Goku and hold him in place with his telekinesis.
King Piccolo demonstrates telekinesis, which he uses to levitate the buried Dragon Balls out of the ground.
In Dragon Ball Z, Piccolo uses telekinesis after Goku and Raditz's deaths to take Gohan from Master Roshi's hands, in order to train him at Break Wasteland for the battle against the Saiyans. In the anime, Vegeta shows another use of this technique on the planet Arlia where he kills the Arlian king by lifting a big number of stones and throwing them at him. At the same time Piccolo trains by lifting and putting back whole pyramids (he eventually makes a mistake, detonating one of them and causing a major earthquake).
King Kai uses telekinesis to train Goku in using the Spirit Bomb.
Goku later uses telekinesis while in a hospital bed by lifting water out of a glass, but is interrupted by Chi-Chi, which makes him lose concentration and he spills it on his head.
Guldo uses telekinesis in order to paralyze Krillin and Gohan, and then to lift a tree trunk skewer in order to perform his Guldo Special. Chiaotzu uses a Psychic Attack to defeat Guldo on King Kai's Planet, sending the Ginyu Force member plummeting down to Hell.Dragon Ball Z episode 95, "Transformed at Last" Frieza uses telekinesis to move around boulders during his fight against Goku and to kill Krillin. The Hover Pods used by Frieza and Cooler are controlled via their telekinesis.Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot, 2020 King Cold utilized Telekinesis on one of the viewports to destroy it while searching for Frieza's remains near Namek, due to rage over Frieza's possible demise.
Cell demonstrates telekinesis which he inherited from Frieza. Using it as part of his Psycho Crash technique to construct the Cell Games Arena from rock, and later he uses it to control his Death Saucer in the fight against Goku.
When Gohan, in the Great Saiyaman outfit, is fighting thugs in Satan City, one shoots a rocket at him. Gohan holds up his hand and the rocket halts in mid-air, then reverses.Dragon Ball Z episode 203, "Rescue Videl" Shin uses this technique during the match between Kibito and Gohan, and it is powerful enough to hold down Gohan at his Super Saiyan 2 form. Majin Buu frequently used telekinesis, typically with conjecture with his Transfiguration Beam, where he would levitate numerous people before transforming them into food and eating them.
Panzy demonstrates her usage of the technique to Goku, Shin, and Glorio by lifting a rock. However, she struggles to hold it in the air.Dragon Ball Daima episode 5, "Panzy"

In the manga, Fused Zamasu used telekinesis to choke both Goku and Vegeta during their battle. In the anime, Iwan, Liquiir, and Arak used telekinesis to fix the Tournament of Power Arena after testing it in a battle. During the tournament, Frieza used telekinesis to hurl pieces of the arena at Jiren.
Moro is capable of throwing comets. He is also able to summons a tree trunk skewer and launches it at the opponent with his telekinesis to inflict a high amount of damage. Saganbo first used this to take away the gun of a Galactic Patrol guard.
After wishing to become the strongest warrior in the Universe, Granolah levitates a boulder into the air before destroying it. Thanks to his Pure Progress, Granolah's control and might increases over the course of his fight against Ultra Ego Vegeta, allowing him to levitate the main stone tower of his hometown, as well as several collapsed houses. He combines this with Hakai to create an omnidirectional explosion on the Saiyan Prince. In the manga, Perfected Ultra Instinct Goku used telekinesis to stop Granolah's attack and lift him in the air before attacking him. After being empowered by the Cerealian Dragon Balls, Gas becomes able to throw much heavier objects than before such as several buildings and trains.
In Dragon Ball GT, Bon Para uses telekinesis to steal the Black Star Dragon Ball Goku, Pan and Trunks secure on planet Gelbo.
