**Durability:** At least **Moon level**. **Small Planet level** after King Kai's training, At least **Planet level**. At least **Dwarf Star level** post-Zenkai, **Small Star level** with Kaio-ken x10, x20, **Star level** as a Super Saiyan (Tanked attacks from Frieza before he went 100%), **Star level** as a Super Saiyan. **Star level**, at least **Large Star level** as a Full Power Super Saiyan, **Star level**, **Large Star level+** as a Full Power Super Saiyan, **Solar System level** as a Super Saiyan 2 and 3

**Stamina:** Very high. Goku can train for days with minimal rest and can fight through his long, arduous fights with the likes of Vegeta and Frieza, continuing to fight against Vegeta even after overexerting himself with Kaio-ken x4, and ultimately outlasting the latter even after being effortlessly beaten around, pushing himself to his limits with Kaio-ken, and exhausting himself with his Spirit Bomb. When he was younger, he managed to pull through and defeat Piccolo even after all of his limbs were broken and he was mortally injured. However, his stamina drops greatly as a Super Saiyan 3, which he can only maintain for a couple of minutes, making it effectively useless against opponents on his level

**Range:** Standard melee range, Planetary with ki blasts and attacks | Standard melee range, Planetary with ki blasts and attacks | Standard melee range, At least Planetary to Stellar with ki blasts and attacks (Comparable to Vegeta, whose Final Flash can easily extend into outer space), Universal with Instant Transmission (Traveled to the Other World and to King Kai's Planet from Earth) | Standard melee range, Stellar to Interplanetary with ki blasts and attacks, Universal with Instant Transmission

**Standard Equipment:** None notable

**Intelligence:** While he lacks knowledge when it comes to things that aren't related to fighting, Goku is a master of prodigal skill when it comes to martial arts, with years of experience fighting against powerful opponents with a plethora of abilities. His skill when it comes to combat and the usage of ki allows him to replicate other ki-based techniques after seeing them once, and he was the first to realize how much energy the Super Saiyan transformations unnecessarily drained. Despite this drawback, he was the first to master the Super Saiyan state, making it highly efficient. He is a genius in combat and is capable of devising new applications of his techniques on the fly, such as using Kamehameha with his feet

**Weaknesses:** Goku seeks strong opponents and therefore will allow his opponents to reach their full power for the sake of a good fight. Kaio-ken strains his body, causing him intense pain and exhaustion if he overuses it. He often drops his guard and leaves openings for his opponents whenever he gets distracted, lowering his durability. His Spirit Bomb requires a long charge-up period, during which time he is vulnerable. He cannot survive in the vacuum of space and needs to locate a ki signature to teleport using Instant Transmission. Super Saiyan 3 drains his ki rapidly and will exhaust him within only a few minutes
