List of techniques used by Piccolo

A list of Piccolo's techniques and special abilities.
==Abilities==
===Physical Abilities===
*Superhuman Strength - Piccolo's natural physiology gives him immense physical strength, allowing him to easily destroy entire mountains with random blows, lift excessive quantities of weight (casually moves and practically lives with extremely heavy clothes on), or even match a Super Saiyan's strength in combat. Piccolo can increase his own physical strength and endurance by expanding his own muscle mass, essentially growing in size and power, however, at the cost of losing some mild mobility and speed.
*Superhuman Speed - As an extremely experienced and trained Namekian warrior, Piccolo can move and fly at hypersonic speeds, enabling him the ability to travel great distances in short periods of time, or move at "untraceable" speeds while in combat. According to himself, his "flying technique" is vastly superior to that of which humans use, enabling him to move way faster than the Flying Nimbus, or humans like Tien and Chiaotzu.
*Superhuman Durability - Despite his plant-like characteristics, Piccolo's body is incredibly tough, easily capable of surviving all earthling-made weapons, and survive battles with extremely powerful aliens like Frieza, or Cell, a bio-android. When increasing his size, despite losing some minor speed and agility, his body becomes tougher and more durable, capable of taking enormous amounts of punishment, even while weakened and without enhancing his body with ki.
*Superhuman Senses - As a Namekian, Piccolo possesses enhanced senses of sight, taste, and particularly, hearing, which is perhaps related to his big pointy ears, being capable of listening to conversations from far away distances. His hearing however, despite having a "spying" advantage, is also one of his few, and perhaps the only, physical weaknesses he has, as highly pitching sounds can cause him great headaches and pain near instantly.
*Eternal Youth - Piccolo inherited his late father's eternal youth, giving him ageless immortality after reaching his physical prime.Daizenshuu 2, 1995 Like his father, however, he can still die from unnatural causes, as demonstrated by his sacrifices against Nappa and Frieza, both times to save Gohan.
*Life Link - Piccolo inherited his late father's life link with Kami, thus one will die if the other perishes either via natural or unnatural causes. Ended when Piccolo fused with Kami during the Android conflict.
===Mental Abilities===
*Genius-Level Intellect: Being a reincarnation of his father, possessing all of Kami's vast knowledge, and gaining his own experience through tough battles, Piccolo possesses the wisdom and experience of 5 different lives, and is perhaps one of the universe's greatest analytical minds, and the finest strategist there is on Earth.
===Energy Abilities===
*Flight – The ability to take flight through the manipulation of ki.
*Ki Sense – The ability to sense the energy of other beings.
**Godly ki sense – By the time of Broly, Piccolo has learned how to sense godly ki. Although it's unclear how he managed to do this, it's possible he gained or learned the ability from Kami since Kami was originally a deity and could likely sense godly ki like his successor Dende can.
*Ki Transfer – Piccolo can grant some of his energy to a wounded person to restore some of their energy.
==Techniques==
As the reincarnation of King Piccolo, Piccolo can use all of his techniques and abilities.
===Energy Techniques===
====Offensive Techniques====
*Ki Blast - The most basic form of energy wave.
*Explosive Demon Wave - The user fires a very powerful energy wave shot from a single hand, with the other arm supporting the one that is firing the attack.
**Makosen - Piccolo fires the two waves together to create a larger and deadlier one.
**Chasing Bullet - Piccolo uses this attack in a similar manner to the Explosive Demon Wave, with one arm supporting the one that is firing the beam itself. The beam is orangish-yellow in color and is faster than the Explosive Demon Wave. It also has the ability to home in on its target, with considerable power, but not as much as the Explosive Demon Wave.
**Hyper Explosive Demon Wave - Piccolo creates a massive explosion with himself as the nexus. While having a very large radius, the attack was not very effective as it did little damage to Goku (who had time to block) and left Piccolo almost completely drained.
**Dust Attack - The technique is a smaller, less efficient variant of the Explosive Demon Wave.
**Light Grenade - The user puts their hands together in front of them as they charge a yellow energy sphere in their hands. Then, they bring their hands forward and fires the energy sphere, inflicting a massive amount of damage.
*Special Beam Cannon - The move is performed by touching the index and middle fingers of one hand to the forehead and charging enough ki to attack. Its speed changes to the power level of the user performing the move. When ready, the fingers are extended forward, and two thin energy beams are unleashed from the fingers. One remains straight while the other coils around the straight beam. The resulting beam is quite powerful, drilling through most targets, and exploding on the ones it can't. It can also be used with only one arm.
**Full-Nelson Special Beam Cannon - Piccolo says, "sorry to keep you waiting" and fires his Special Beam Cannon at the opponent. Then, Goku sneaks up behind the opponent and puts them in a Full-Nelson so they cannot escape. Finally, as the opponent tries to escape Goku's full nelson, the Special Beam Cannon impales both the opponent and Goku, inflicting a huge amount of damage.
**Double Demon Burst - The user performs the technique in a manner reminiscent of the Makosen though a Special Beam Cannon is fired instead, thus it is basically a two-handed version of the Special Beam Cannon though with less charging time than the original one-handed version.
**Special Beam Blast - The user moves back, charges, and then quickly fires a weak Special Beam Cannon. Though its power is weaker than a normal Special Beam Cannon, it retains the attack range of original, allowing it to hit opponents from afar.
**Masenko Beam Cannon - Both fighters fire their attacks at the same time, with the Special Beam Cannon coiling around the main beam of the Masenko. The Masenko Beam Cannon utilized by Gohan and Piccolo consists of Gohan firing the Masenko while Piccolo charging and firing only the straight energy beam part of Special Cannon Beam, not utilizing the secondary coiling beam of a standard version. Once overlapped and coiled together, the resultant beam is similar to a standard Special Beam Cannon except for being larger and stronger.
**Special Beam Cannon (Super) - Piccolo holds his index and middle fingers to his forehead to charge enough ki and brings his charging arm forward (holding it with his other arm to support it) to fire a brilliant Special Beam Cannon at the target.
*Masenko - The attack is performed by the user placing both hands above the head with the palms facing the target and one hand in front of the other with the fingers going in opposite directions. When the user thrusts their hands forward, they call the name and fire a beam of yellow, white, or orange energy.
*Scatter Shot - First, Piccolo swings his arms apart and charges an energy sphere in each hand. Then, he yells "Scatter Shot!" as he fires multiple energy spheres against the opponent, inflicting a huge amount of damage.
**Hellzone Grenade - Piccolo charges up and fires several energy spheres randomly in the opponent's direction, disregarding accuracy and with no intent on actually hitting the enemy. With efficient ki control, the multiple energy spheres are suspended in the air, completely surrounding them. Finally, Piccolo commands the energy spheres, which change from a yellow to purple color, to rapidly spin around the opponent and inevitably rain down on them with a vicious onslaught from every direction, filling the sky with a blinding light and inflicting a massive amount of damage.
*Eye Laser - The user shoots laser-like beams from both eyes.
*Antenna Beam - The user shoots a bolt of electricity from their antennae or fingers to shock the opponent, stunning them.
*Mouth Energy Wave - The user blasts a large amount of energy from their mouth.
*Self Destruction - In a final attempt to defeat Moro, Piccolo prepares a self-destruction technique, however he is stopped before he can activate it.
====Support Techniques====
*Evil Containment Wave Reflection - It allows the user to reverse and capture the user of an Evil Containment Wave into a small container.
*Regeneration - The ability to regrow certain body parts or cells that have been dismembered or destroyed and replace them with brand new cells, or simply regrouping all of their separated parts back together.
*Special Beam Charge - This technique is a fundamental part of the Special Beam Cannon as the technique requires the user to perform Special Beam Charge to fire a charged Special Beam Cannon.
*Telekinesis - A technique that allows the user to manipulate objects and other people with the power of one's mind.
*Illusion - Piccolo used this technique to hide the moon in which it appears destroyed.
*Magic Materialization - A magical ability used to create physical matter out of thin air.
*Telepathy - It is a way to communicate with others using one's mind. Users can also read the minds of the ones they communicate with, similar to telepathic eavesdropping.
*Far-Seeing Arts - Using this art, People in the higher realms constantly observe the situation in the lower realm.
*Persuasion - A user of persuasion is incredibly persuasive and are able to bring anyone to understand and feel for their viewpoint and can convince others of virtually anything.
*Kiai Defibrillation - This is performed by placing one or both hands over the target's chest and performing chest compressions while releasing Kiai or weak energy blasts directly at the target.
===Martial Art Techniques===
====Single Strikes====
*Demon Hand - A Namekian user stretches their arms by expanding and contracting the cells in their body through willpower.Daizenshuu 7, 1996 This allows them to grab and attack opponents that are out of the normal reach of the user's unstretched arms.
**Demon Whip Attack - The user extends both arms in a serpentine manner to attack the opponent. Used against Salza in Dragon Ball Z: Cooler's Revenge.
*Fierce Fist - After withstanding numerous blows from the opponent, Piccolo delivers a monstrous punch to their skull and shattering their will to fight.
====Hold and Throws====
*Demonic Destruction - A aura infused two handed throwing technique used by Orange Piccolo. While the aura is active, it will cancel out weaker ki blasts. Connecting the attack will cause Orange Piccolo to lift the opponent up and throw them with an epic slam! Named in Xenoverse 2.
====Rush Combinations====
*Explosive Breath Cannon - First, Piccolo yells out "Die!" as he charges at the opponent and elbows them in their stomach before kicking them up into the air. Then, he flies after the opponent and double axe-handle punches them down to the ground, where he teleports beside them and grabs their arm. Finally, Piccolo says "I'll beat you to death!" as he punches the opponent in their stomach and throws them in the air before blasting them with a yellow Mouth Energy Wave, inflicting a huge amount of damage.
*Apocalyptic Burst - Orange Piccolo rushes forward and unleashes a mighty aura infused kick capable of canceling out weaker ki blasts while the aura is active & can be charged to break the opponent's guard. Once the kick connects, Piccolo will deliver two more powerful aura infused kicks before charging an energy sphere in his right hand before slamming it into his opponent's face.

===Speed and Movement Techniques===
*Risking it all for a friend - A technique in which the user jumps in the way of an incoming Ki Blast to save another.
*Afterimage Technique - An ability to move so swiftly that an image of the user is left behind.
==Power Ups==
===Techniques===
*All-Out - A power up.
*Namekian Fusion - It is more of an assimilation (the alternate title of this type of fusion) than fusion, as one Namekian absorbs the energy, strength, memories, and intelligence or thought pattern of another. Both participants must willingly consent to fuse in this manner and usually the pair agrees to the stronger of the two to serve their body as the host; the reason for this consent is that the body of the absorbed Namekian disappears during this fusion and the consciousness ceases to exist as a body.
===Transformations===
*Great Namekian - The transformation causes the user to grow, usually to enormous sizes - increasing their overall strength.
**Super Giant-Form - The maximum sized Great Namekian form.
*Demonic Transformation - Piccolo is infected by the Black Water Mist becoming a vampire-like Demon Clansman. However, when Piccolo was infected with the mist, it didn't have an effect on him, because Namekians are immune to the mist. However, uniquely, Piccolo proved able to take on the Demonic Transformation on his own, presumably due to his past as a Demon Clansman. Only used in the anime.
*Giant Form (Serpent Demon Clan) - This form increases the user's size and power.
*Super Namekian - Namekians who manage to unlock their abilities and achieve seemingly insurmountable powers.
*Ultimate - A powerful state accessible to someone who has had their latent potential unlocked which allows them to use their latent power at its highest level.
