Rock, Scissors 'N' Paper

is a Rush Attack used by Grandpa Gohan and Goku.
==Overview==
In the original version, the user shouts "Jan Ken", then a name corresponding to the attack: "Gu", equals rock and will be a strong punch. "Choki", equals scissors and will be a poke in the eyes. "Pa", equals paper and will be an open palm strike. In censored dubs of Dragon Ball, the scissor part is cut.
==Usage==
Goku first uses this move against the Bear Thief that wanted to eat Master Roshi's friend, Turtle. Goku then uses it on Yamcha in the Diablo Desert.
In the final match of the 21st World Martial Arts Tournament, Goku says "paper" when he actually uses rock, which confuses Jackie Chun.
Goku continues to use the technique up to his first fight with General Blue: he utilizes the scissors portion of the attack on Blue's eyes, preventing him from utilizing his psychokinetic abilities again after being freed by a mouse, and punches him into the cave wall with the rock portion, which knocks Blue out afterwards.

In Daimaō Fukkatsu, Gokuden, the Butōden series, Budokai series, and Dragon Ball Heroes, Rock, Scissors 'N' Paper is one of Kid Goku's techniques.
In the Budokai Tenkaichi series, Goku uses it as part of his Blast 2 called Counterattack! and Grandpa Gohan uses it as part of his Turtle School Tranquility.
In Dragon Ball Online, Martial Artists can use the attack.
In Xenoverse, it appears as a super skill under the name Scissors Paper Rock in the GT Pack 1 DLC and is one of GT Goku's skills in his third moveset (GT Goku Tailless) along with 2 Power Power-based techniques (all three techniques were used in the original Dragon Ball). The Future Warrior can also obtain this skill as a reward in DLC Parallel Quest Event: "Ultimate Power, Ultimate Saiyan". In the game, the skill triggers a pose where the user must then press different buttons corresponding to each move: Scissor (causes the opponent to be blinded as if hit by a Solar Flare), Paper (can break guards and obstacles and knockback opponents), or Rock (a punch). These attacks can be combined to attack up to 3 times. One example of this skill combos is Scissor (to blind the opponent), Rock (attack the opponent), and Paper (to knockback the opponent). During startup pose, the user is vulnerable and if they are hit, they will be unable to finish the technique.
In Dragon Ball Fusions, it appears under the name Scissors Paper Rock Rush as a special move used by Goten, Gotenks, EX Gotenks, and several minor characters. Additionally, it has to stronger versions Scissors Paper Rock Rush EX and Scissors Paper Rock Rush SP. The EX version is stronger than Scissors Paper Rock Rush, while the SP version is stronger than both Scissors Paper Rock Rush and its EX variant.
In Kakarot, Scissors Paper Rock: Rock is one of Goku's default Super Attacks. Goku can also learn Scissors Paper Rock: Scissors and Scissors Paper Rock: Paper as he progresses through the game. Each Super Attack represents a portion of Scissors Paper Rock with Scissors Paper Rock: Rock representing Rock, Scissors Paper Rock: Scissors representing Scissors, and Scissors Paper Rock: Paper representing Paper. By increasing his Scissors Paper Rock: Rock super attack to Lvl 3, he can learn Scissors Paper Rock: Paper and Scissors Paper Rock: Scissors via Mental Simulation Training at Training Grounds. Both Mental Simulation Training sessions involve Goku facing images of himself, Piccolo, and Gohan.
==Trivia==
*Rock-paper-scissors, the game the attack takes its name from, is also a very commonly played game in the Dragon Ball universe. It is mainly used to decide who will battle who.
*In edited versions of Dragon Ball, the "scissors" portion frequently ended up cut due to excessive violence.
*During his fight against Jackie Chun, Goku attempted to poke him in the eyes with the "scissors" portion of the technique. However, eye poking is forbidden in the World Martial Arts Tournament. 
*The Alex Kidd games have a game that shares the Japanese name Janken. This is a remnant of when it started out as a Dragon Ball tie-in game before SEGA lost the license to Bandai.
