## **Techniques:**

**Super Saiya-jin (Saiyan) Forms:** An advanced transformation assumed by extraordinarily powerful members of the Saiya-jin race which increases his Base Battle-Power by 50 times, and this is proportioned to his physical attributes giving him a great and even increase in strength, ki power, speed, stamina and durability. However, without mastery of this form, much of this energy is wasted transforming and maintaining the transformation. The Super Saiya-jin form also has three additional branch states (which sacrifice speed for raw power) and is succeeded by three further transformations, Super Saiya-jin 2 (twice as strong as a regular Super Saiya-jin) Super Saiya-jin 3 (four times as strong as a Super Saiya-jin 2) and Super Saiya-jin God (at least 10 times as strong as a Super Saiya-jin 3, potentially much higher). Goku can use all of these transformations.

* **Super Saiya-jin (Saiyan) God Forms:** An extremely advanced transformation assumed by extraordinarily powerful members of the Saiya-jin race which increases his base Battle-Power by 1 000 times as strong as a Super Saiya-jin 3) and Supe Saiya-jin God is succeeded by one further transformation, Super Saiya-jin God Super Saiya-jin (50 tomes as strong as a Super Saiya-jin God). Goku can use all of these transformations.

**Ki Blast:** The most basic form of energy wave.

**Invisible Eye Blast:** Goku has the ability to shoot an invisible blast of ki out of his eyes. He uses this twice in the anime (once in the manga). The first (and only time in the manga) was when he used it to dig a hole in the Namekian ground to bury Vegeta's corpse in, after he was killed by Frieza.

**Destructo Disk:** The user holds their hand into the air, conducting ki in the form of a razor-sharp disc, which is then hurled over and around the body to cut the target.

**Kamehameha:** Goku's signature energy attack, even though it was invented by Master Roshi. Goku first learned this technique after witnessing Roshi use it to extinguish the fire on Fire Mountain. Goku has also invented numerous variations of technique, such as the Bending Kamehameha, Super Kamehameha, Kaioken Kamehameha, Double Kamehameha, Twin Dragon Shot, Angry Kamehameha, Flying Kamehameha, Instant Kamehameha, True Kamehameha & Kamehameha Rebirth.

**Continuous Kamehameha:** Goku releases a rapid barrage of energy blasts at his opponents, causing a massive accumulation of damage. Also called Super Energy Wave Volley.

**Solar Flare:** The user spreads and places their fingers on their foreheads, discharging a blinding flash of light.

**Homing Energy Wave:** A move where Goku fires a Ki Blast that targets his enemy. He used it against Pikkon.

**Kaio-Ken:** Goku forms a red ki aura around his body, multiplying his power level, enhancing his strength and speed. The highest level of this attack used is x20. Goku does not use it much after becoming Super Saiyan. However, Goku has a technique where he combines the Kaioken with his Super Saiyan transformation, the Super Kaio-ken; this is done on one occasion, in his fight against Pikkon.

**Genki Dama (Spirit Bomb):** One of Goku's signature attacks in which he conducts the spirit energy of all nearby living organisms, forming a ball of power and size depending of the amount of harnessed ki energy. Its power was used against many powerful opponents such as Vegeta, Frieza, Dr. Wheelo, Turles, Lord Slug,Super Android 13, Kid Buu and Omega Shenron. It was also absorbed for increased strength in Super Android 13!. It has a few variations: Large Spirit Bomb, Instant Spirit Bomb & Super Spirit Bomb.

**Shunkan Ido (Instant Transmission):** Also called Instantaneous Transmission the user places their index and middle finger on their forehead, sensing a person that they can teleport to. Note: Instant Transmission is teleportation, not speed. When Goku told Trunks it was light speed it was a translation error.

**After-Image Technique:** This technique is a short burst of extremely high speed, moving faster than the opponent can sense. This has the side effect of leaving a momentary "after image", until the opponent's senses adapt and realize their target has moved.

**Dragonthrow:** Goku's signature grapple throw. He uses an example of this move on Frieza when he grabbed his tail during their battle on Namek.

**Full-Nelson:** Executed by performing half nelsons with both arms, though Goku only used this once against Raditz.

**Hasshu-Ken:** A technique, used to counter Tien Shinhan's Four Witches Technique, in which Goku moves his two arms so fast that they each appear to be in four places at once, effectively giving him eight arms to use in combat.

**Crazy Fist:** This is a distraction move designed to confuse and taunt the opponent. Goku who acts like adog or a monkey, barking and jumping around to scare his opponent. Goku uses this in reaction to Jackie Chun's (Master Roshi's alter-ego) use of the Drunken Fist.

**Rock, Scissors 'N' Paper:** An attack in which Goku delivers either a strong punch, a poke in the eyes, or an open palm strike.

**Tornado!:** Goku spins while rushing on the opponent to attack him/her. Used against Nam.

**Mind Reading:** Somewhere along the trip to Namek, Goku taught himself how to read the minds of others, by placing his palm on their head.
