Battle menu #1

 Fight:       Battle
 Cards:       Use item cards from your inventory (as many as you like)
 Flee:        Attempt to run from the battle
 Menu(main):  Status/Lineup/Speed only

Battle menu #2 (from Fight)

 Manual:      You select which characters use which battle cards
 Auto:        The computer selects the fighters and cards for you

 The number on the top left corner(amount of Dragonball stars, Z is
   highest) of your Battle card is the card's Attack Rating  (strength
   of the attack), the higher the better. The number on the bottom right
   corner(knowing Japanese helps here, Z is highest) is the Defense Rating
   you'll have against the opponents attacks. Again, the higher the better.

 During the assignment of characters to Battle cards you can choose to
   only use a certain amount of characters for the battle. To do this, hit
   the X button when you've equipped all the characters that you wish to do
   battle(a small green circle with an "E" inside it appears next to all
   equipped characters). It will then ask if you're sure you want to go
   into battle with less than the Maximum amount of characters allowed:
   Yes/No  This is a good way to save those high powered Battle cards ;)

 Before assigning the first character to a Battle card, you can press and
   hold the X button to see the opponents hit points and Battle power.

 Sometimes a character will retaliate against an opponents attack, causing
   that character to take more than one turn in battle. This happens
   more frequently when the character is not knocked offscreen by the
   opponents attack.

Item cards menu

 Choose a card you wish to use(a box to the right shows where the card
   can be used,  Battle/World map/Item for specific use)
   It will then ask, Use/Throw away(Discard)

 Item cards are bought or earned through Battle victories, found in caves,
   capsules and given to you by non playable characters. When you come
   across an Item, but have no room for it in your inventory, it will ask
   you if you'd like to use an Item from your inventory to make room for
   the new item  Yes/No

 You can carry up to 24 Item cards in your inventory at one time.

 If the Lunch(A version) Item card sneezes when used, the character
   portrait will turn to a brunette(B version) and the card will not work.

Using the Dragonball Radar

 To find the locations of the Dragonballs you must use the Dragonball
   Radar. To use it you must go into the Item card menu and choose it.
   It is always the first item. After choosing it, it will appear
   onscreen. Press the A button to activate it, a grid will appear on it.
   You can press the A button up to 4 times while using the radar. Each
   press makes the lines in the grid increase, indicating greater range
   it's search. To put it away press the B button to cancel.

Hit points, KI and Battle power

 Hit points are your characters health, if they drop to Zero your
   character will die.

 KI is the energy it takes to throw a fireball.

 Battle power is the strength of the character. The higher the Battle
   power, the more damage the character is capable of.

The Battle cards

 1.(Kamisama's) Gokou, Tenshinhan, Chao-Z, and Yamucha use this as a base
     card through most of the game.

 2.(Kaiousama's) Piccolo's Base card becomes this when he arrives on Namek.
     Gokou's Base card becomes this when he emerges from the healing tank.

 3.(Mazoku's) Gohan and Piccolo use this as a base card through most of
     the game.

 4.(Namekian's) Vegeta, Dende, Nail, Tsumuri and Mai-ma use this as a
     base card.

 5.(Ginew's) Black background, orange circle with Ginew symbol inside it.

 6.(KI attack) Blue background in center square, with an X through it.

 7.(Wildcard) Yellow background in the center square. Kanji looks like
     3 bars over an X.

 8.(Wildcard) Yellow background in the center square. Only other Yellow
     card(except for the card that appears when you use the Gokou Item
     card).

The Combination(suedo 3D flying headbut) attack

 All your playable characters have a base card under their portrait
   throughout the game. This card remains the same throughout most of the
   game. When combined with other attack cards this will cause your
   character to perform a Combination attack(suedo 3D flying headbutt)
   after their chosen attack on their opponent. This will only work on the
   original target of your attack(if another of your characters kills the
   opponent first, the Combination attack will not work). This attack can
   happen radomly at times also. The cards each character needs to use in
   battle, to combine with their base card, to perform the combination
   attack are:

     Gokou(Base#1): combine with #2 or random
     Tenshinhan(Base#1): combine with #2 or #4
     Gohan(Base#3): combine with #4
     Yamucha(Base#1): combine with #2 or #4
     Chao-Z(Base#1): combine with #2 or #4
     Kulilin(Base#1): combine with #2 or #4
     Piccolo(Base#3): combine with #2 or random
     Vegeta(Base#4): combine with Random
     Nail(Base#4): Nail does not have a combination attack
     Dende(Base#4): Dende does not have a combination attack
     Tsumuri(Base#4): Tsumuri does not have a combination attack
     Mai-ma(Base#4): Mai-ma does not have a combination attack

       Most characters will also perform the combination attack if you use
         either of the two Wildcard Battle cards.
       Later in the game, when your characters' Base card changes, the
         card that they use to combine to perform the Combination attack
         remains the same(as if the Base card hadn't changed).

Special attack

 If you choose to have your character use a Battle card that has the same
   symbol as their base card, then your character will perform the Special
   attack. This makes your character attack "all" the opponents, not just
   one. If there is only one opponent, then your character will perform
   the Combination attack on the opponent after his normal attack instead.
 Later in the game, when your characters' Base card changes, the card that
   they use to combine to perform the Special attack must change to their
   current Base card.

Dwellings

 There are 4 types of dwellings in the game.

   Plain white: Various characters to talk to and gain information
         and items from, reside in these.

   White with grey top, round: Healing station, get Max HP and KI

   White with 2 horns on roof: Training station, raise your Battle
         and KI attacks and power. You will gain extra fireball attacks
         by raising yor KI. You will also raise your Maximum KI capacity.
         When you talk to shopkeep they will ask you if you'd like to
         train, Yes/No  If yes, they ask you whether you wish to raise
         your  Battle power/KI attack.

           Battle power: Each training session costs 1 Training point
              (amount you have is shown at the top of the screen while
              talking to the shopkeep). All the characters are then sent
              outside to do battle with various villians to raise their
              Battle power rating. After each successful battle it will
              ask you if you'd like to battle again.  Yes/No  The more
              you battle the higher you raise your Battle power rating
              (you can fight up to ten battles). You can only use the
              Battle power training at certain times in the game,
              depending on the levels(usually every 10) of your
              characters.

           KI attack: Each training session costs 1 Training point(amount
              you have is shown at the top of the screen while talking
              to the shopkeep). Choose the character you'd like to train.
              Rapid fire(rapidly press) the A button during the training,
              this will make your character flare with energy. If enough
              energy is gathered, your character will explode the rocks,
              thereby successfully completing the training, raising the
              damage level of your KI attacks. This uses up your KI, so
              replenish it when you're finished.

   Greyish, made of brick, round: Item card station, buy or sell Item
         cards. Talk to shopkeep, they will ask if you would like to
         Buy/Sell Item cards.

           Buying: pick the card you wish to buy(points it costs are
                   shown on the card), if you have enough points(and
                   room in your inventory) it will be added to your
                   selection of cards.

           Selling: pick the card you wish to sell(full value shown
                    on the card is given), it will ask if you're sure
                    you want to sell that card  Yes/No  Answer
                    accordingly. You are only allowed to accumulate
                    999 points, if you have this amount you need to
                    buy something to reduce your points before you can
                    sell again.

Important things (semi walkthrough)

 Section 1, Battle with Radittsu:

   At the start of the game, Radittsu shows up and kidnaps Gohan. You
     then control Gokou and Piccolo and try and rescue him. You start on
     Kame House Island.
   Wander the mainland raising Gokou and Piccolo's Hit points, KI capacity
     and Battle power by battling the villians on the mainland.
   When you feel you're ready, search for Mr. Popo, he is being held
     captive by a group of Saiyamen.
   Rescue Mr.Popo, he will give you the Gohan card. You then are
     called to do battle with Radittsu.
   After using the Gohan card during the battle with Radittsu, Gokou
     will grab and hold Radittsu. Keep Piccolo attacking him until he
     can use a fireball(a KI attack card must appear for you to choose)
     on him, this will kill him. Gokou loses power when Piccolo attacks
     Radittsu, so keep healing him with the Item cards. Gokou must
     survive until Piccolo can throw the fireball. When Radittsu is
     killed so is Gokou.
   After the battle Piccolo then takes Gohan away to train him.
   Piccolo trains Gohan. To get out of the cave, defeat Piccolo. There
     is a pool at the back of the cave that will refill your Hit points
     and KI power to maximum.

 Section 2, Gokou trains with Kaiousama in Heaven:

   The object of this is to get Bubbles Hit points down to zero using
     the alloted amount of cards. You will have to do it in 3 different
     amounts of cards.
   After you complete this part of your training, you then fight
     Kaiousama. If you beat him you get called back to Earth by Shenlon.
   The dwelling next to Kaiousama will refill your Hit points and KI
     in between training attempts, don't forget to use it.

 Section 3, Vegeta and Nappa:

   Using Piccolo and Gohan as playable characters, scour the map until you
     find Yamucha, Tenshinhan and Chao-Z. As you find each character,
     they will join your party and become playable characters.
   When you feel your characters are strong enough, search out Nappa and
     Vegeta.
   Before actually fighting Nappa, you will have to battle two groups
     of Saiyamen.
   Gokou appears after you defeat the second group of Saiyamen, right
     before you fight Nappa. After defeating Nappa, he gets up and throws
     a giant fireball at Gohan. Piccolo jumps inbetween him and the blast,
     taking the hit. He dies, Nappa dies.
   Gokou leaves with Vegeta to fight him alone. After defeating Vegeta,
     you are given the Vegeta card. I believe that Vegeta can turn
     Ohazuru(giant weremonkey), but I've killed him before he's
     transformed every time I've played(maybe you need to have Gohan and
     the rest of your characters join the fight by finding Gokou and
     Vegeta? This is what happened in the Manga) I believe if he does go
     Ohazuru, you need to use the Moon/Tail Item card to defeat him,
     this card probably cuts his tail off, rendering him defeated.
   This section ends with the surviving characters in your party leaving
     in a spaceship for the planet Namek, Piccolo's homeworld.

 Section 4, Landing on Namek:

   Once landing on Namek there are many things for your party to do.
     The following things can be done out of order(except where noted).
   Freeza, Dodoria and Zarbon are destroying a village(on the map, above
     where your ship landed, to the right a bit) in their search for the
     Dragonballs. Go to the village. When you get close to Freeza a cinema
     will play, showing Dodoria kill some Namek warriors. As he is about
     to kill a Namek child, Gohan swoops down and rescues him. You then
     fly away with the child. At this point the game has a side scrolling
     section of play. The object of this sequence is to avoid Dodoria's
     fireballs until all the arrows in the line at the bottom of the
     screen(timer) are lit up. You lose hit points for every hit taken.
     Damage varies from character to character, depending on their levels.
     You use the directional pad to move Gohan, forward, backward, up and
     down to avoid the fireballs. After escaping from Dodoria, you land
     in the center of a hill in the bottom right section of the map. The
     child now appears on your status screen as a member of your party.
   Find the destroyed Namek village towards the center of the map. Go
     into the large house and search the pots that are inside. You will
     find Dende hiding there. He will then join your party.
   Find the Namek village that is not destroyed. There will be two Namek
     standing out in the open in it. These are Tsumuri and Mai-ma, if
     you have rescued the Namek child and found Dende they will welcome
     you as friends and join your party. If you have not rescued the
     child, or found Dende, they will regard you as an enemy and attack
     you. Either way, if you battle them and lose or you beat them, it's
     game over. So don't talk to them until you've rescued the child and
     found Dende.
   There are two Saiyajin battle pods to the middle left side of the
     map. Kiyui is standing next to one of them, don't worry about that
     yet.
   Go to the cave at the bottom left hand side of the map. Search the
     cave. In it you will find in the capsules and holes in the walls,
     a Gokou Item card, a Shenlon Item card, a Kaiousama Item card and
     a pass to raise your Battle power to level 40(you need to go to the
     training station with this). Go to the end of the cave where you will
     find the #6 star Dragonball. Just before the Dragonball, there is
     a long passage to go through, it is trapped. As soon as you start
     up the passage, a giant rock rolls down. Every few seconds another
     rolls down. You need to time it so that your character gets into
     the inlet at the right side of the passage as each rock rolls by.
     Each party member loses 50 Hit points per hit by a rock.
   After getting the Dragonball and exiting the cave, you are confronted
     by Kiyui. Defeat him to earn a Piccolo Item card.
   After completing all these tasks, your party is called back to their
     ship(top left side of the map). When you get there Dodoria is waiting
     for you. He destroys the ship with a fireball, then you battle him.
   After defeating Dodoria, Bulma appears and everyone leaves.

 Section 5, Gokou travels to Namek

   Gokou is onboard a capsule on his way to Namek. He trains by trying
     to defeat the large amont of G-forces he set the ship to have. The
     training activator is on the second floor of the capsule, it is the
     large machine in the center of the room. When you activate it, it
     will ask you if you'd like to train  Yes/No  (at this point you
     can set the G-forces you'd like to train in from 10 - 100, by
     pressing left or right on the directional pad) You try to win by
     defeating the G-forces before your hit points run out, do this by
     using strong Battle cards. You will have to do this a few times.

   After defeating the gravity with Gokou you are then given control of
     Piccolo. Piccolo is training with Kaiousama. The first part of his
     training is the same as Gokou's when he trained with Kaiousama, to
     try and defeat Bubbles. You must do this three times, in various
     amounts of cards. After completing this section of his training
     Piccolo must face Nappa and Radittsu together as his final test.
     As it was with Gokou, the dwelling next to Kaiousama will refill
     your Hit points and KI inbetween training attempts.
   After Piccolo defeats Nappa and Radittsu, you see a cinema where Vegeta
     arrives on Namek and confronts Zarbon.

 Section 6, Back on Namek

   Bulma and your characters land on an island in the bottom right corner
     of the map(you are now on section 2 of the Namek map). The characters
     talk to each other and then Tsumuri and Mai-Ma leave your party. Your
     remaining playable characters are now able to go exploring again.
     Bulma stays here on the island in a plain white dwelling, she will
     recover your Hit points and KI capacity to maximum when you talk to
     her.
   You will find the #4 star Dragonball in the middle of a hill towards
     the center of the map.
   Talk to the Namek in the dwelling in the center of the map.
   There is a destroyed village to the left of the hill where you found
     the #4 star Dragonball, go to the only building undamaged. If you
     search the pots inside the dwelling you will find a pass for the
     training station.
   Go to the cave in the cliffs at the top of the map. Inside this cave
     you will find, a Yajirobi Item card, a Karin Item card, A Kaiousama
     Item card and an Eye visor-B Item card. You will also notice that
     there are tunnels at the left and right sides of the inside of the
     cave. Each of these goes to a pool with a fairie in it. The tunnel
     on the right goes to a fairie that raises your Hit points and KI.
     The tunnel to the left goes to a fairie, that when spoken to(search)
     will tell you to search for a cave on an island at the bottom left
     side of the map. The fairie will tell you to do something in this
     cave(pull all the hidden switches).
   Now you need to go to this cave to the south and pull all the levers
     hidden in the holes in the walls of it, to do this just search all
     the holes. If a switch is present in the hole, you will hear a
     grinding noise alerting you to the fact that you've pulled a switch.
     There may be holes in the small rooms scattered throughout the cave,
     check them all. It doesn't seem to matter if you pull them more than
     once.
   After you've pulled all the switches, return to the fairie at the
     left tunnel in the cave at the top of the map. Talk to the fairie
     again and it will remove a wall so you can get to another section
     of the cave. The pool with the fairie will then disappear.
   Walk down the passage that is now accessable, there is a warp at the
     end of it.
   Walk into the warp, you will be transported to another section of the
     cave. Look for a small room in the rocks in the open area of this
     cave, close to where you entered this section. Nail and another
     Namek warrior are inside this room. When you confront them, the
     warrior will attack you. After defeating him, Nail will join your
     party. Continue exploring the cave.
   Dodoria is blocking the passage to the lower half of the cave, you
     must defeat him to pass. At the end of this passage, towards the
     bottom right side of this section of the cave, is a pool that will
     replenish your party's Hit points and KI.
   Continue upwards, as the passage at the top right side of this cave
     leads to a passage out to the clearing in the center of the cliffs.
     The dwelling of the Namek elder is on the hill in the center of
     this clearing.
   Fly up to the dwelling and go inside. There is a circle of baskets
     and pots in the room, walk into the center of them and you will be
     levitated into the room above. The Namek elder is seated on his throne
     in this room. Talk to him and he will give you the #1 star Dragonball
     and raise your party's battle power ratings. He will also turn all the
     current members of your partys' Base cards into the Namek #4 Battle
     card, no matter what they were before. Your characters' Combination
     attacks are still done by combining the same cards you did before,
     but the Special attack must now be performed by combining with
     another Namek #4 card in battle, instead of your characters' old
     Base cards. Dende and the other Namek child will now leave your party.
     You leave this room by falling down the hole in the center. This
     brings you back down to the room with the circle of pots.
   After leaving the Namek elder's dwelling, Nail will leave your party.
   Go back through the caves until you are at the entrance to the original
     cave you came in. Upon exiting the caves, Vegeta will fly to your
     party and land in front of them. He will attempt to take the
     Dragonballs that you have collected, but just as you're about to
     fight with him, Zarbon appears. Vegeta then joins your party to fight
     against him.
   After defeating Zarbon, he transforms into stage 2, a bulked up version
     of the original Zarbon, and you must fight him again.
   After defeating him for the second time, Vegeta talks to your party,
     and decides to join you. You then fly back to where Bulma is waiting.
   After talking to Bulma about what has happened for a bit, the scene
     cuts to show 5 Battle pods landing in the area of Freeza's spaceship.

 Section 7, Gokou continues his journey

   Gokou is still inside the capsule heading for Namek. He must continue
     his training if he wants to become stronger. As in Section 5, Gokou
     trains by trying to defeat the tremendous G-forces he has set the
     capsule to have. Look at Section 5 for instructions on how to train.
     You need to beat the G-forces 5 times, after the fifth, Gokou will
     automatically be raised to level 37.

 Section 8, The Ginew squad arrives

   Gohan and the rest of your party are standing near a valley in a hill.
     (You are now on section 3 of the Namek world map) There are
     Dragonballs on the ground in front of them.
   The Ginew squad flies in and lands between your party and the
     Dragonballs. All seven Dragonballs are there. Ginew takes the
     Dragonballs and leaves, leaving the rest of the Ginew squad to take
     care of your party.
   First you fight Recoom and Gurudo together.
   After defeating Recoom and Gurudo, you are forced to battle Jiisu
     and Baata together(if you try and leave before fighting them, they
     will follow you and force you to fight). After killing one of these
     two enemies, the other will fly away, escaping to warn Ginew. It
     doesn't matter which you kill first, the other always escapes.
   From this point on, sometimes lower ranking enemies within a squad may
     try to flee a battle independantly. On certain occasions when this
     happens Vegeta will fly after them and kill them. On other occasions
     Vegeta will not fight during his turn in battles, even when assigned
     to. These instances are random.
   You can talk to the Namek in the dwelling towards the center of the map.
   When you go near the cliffs at the top right corner of the map, your
     party will be confronted by Ginew and the other member of the Ginew
     squad that escaped from your earlier battle. Freeza's spaceship is
     in this area.
   There is a cave near here also, but don't go into it until you've
     defeated Ginew and his team member.
   When Ginew and the squad member confront you, the scene cuts to Gokou's
     capsule landing on Namek. Gokou gets out of the capsule and flies
     to your party, joining you in the fight against Ginew.
   When battling Ginew you only use Gokou. As you're about to defeat him
     he performs his body exchange on you, you then become incapacitated,
     and Ginew becomes rejuvinated, while using Gokou's body.
   After the body exchange and Ginew is in the form of Gokou, the rest of
     your party battles him, and the remaining squad member together.
     During this battle, if Ginew runs very low on Hit points he will
     perform his body exchange on another member of your party. To
     defeat him you must have your party inflict a lot of damage on him
     at once, before he can get his turn in battle and do the exchange.
     If he does do the exchange, the member of your party that he has
     exchanged forms with, will become Ginew, and since he had to be close
     to defeated in order to do the exchange, your party member will now
     be also. So make sure to replenish their Hit points.
   After defeating Ginew and the remaining squad member, you are given the
     #1 star Dragonball.
   Your party then brings Gokou's unconcious body to Freeza's spaceship,
     where it is placed in a healing tank.
   You then go back outside the ship, and are told to use the Dragonball
     radar to find the other 6 Dragonballs. They are a little to the
     north west of your current position.
   Go to the cave slightly above Freeza's spaceship and enter it. Freeza
     in stage 1 form is at the bottom of the cave, he is gaurding the other
     6 Dragonballs that are lying on the ground near him. When you confront
     Freeza, you will be forced to battle him. After defeating him, you
     will discover that it wasn't Freeza at all, just a Saiyaman in the
     form of him. Gather the remaining 6 Dragonballs and leave the cave.
   After leaving the cave, your party members will place the 7 Dragonballs
     on the ground, near Freeza's ship. They will then form a circle
     around them.

 Section 9, Freeza

   After your party members form the circle around the 7 Dragonballs, the
     scene cuts to show Nail talking to the Namek elder. Freeza appears
     and Nail and him leave the elders dwelling and fly off to do battle.
     Freeza cannot be beaten by Nail in this battle, so don't waste your
     high ranking battle cards. After Freeza defeats Nail, Nail collapses
     to the ground, injured, near death.
   The scene cuts to Dende talking to your party, he tells them of Freeza
     coming to the Namek elder's dwelling and of Nail leaving to battle
     him. Dende and your party then fly to a small island above the
     mainland, and arrange the 7 Dragonballs on the ground there. When
     the Dragonballs are arranged, they summon Porunga, the Namek dragon.
     After they make their wishes to him the Dragonballs turn to stone.
     Your party then flies back to the mainland, where Dende rejoins it.
     (you are now back on section 2 of the Namek world map, although it
     is slightly altered)
   Nail lies injured on the ground below the cliffs towards the top left.
   Your party must seek out Freeza. He is standing outside the Namek
     elder's dwelling. The dwelling no longer needs to be reached by going
     through the caves, as Freeza has blown open a hole in the cliffs that
     surrounded it. When you confront Freeza, you are drawn into battle
     with him.
   At the end of the first battle turn of your fight with Freeza, Piccolo
     is called down from the heavens to Namek(his base card is now #2,
     Kaiousama's). Have Piccolo search out the mortally injured Nail.
     When he finds him, the two Namek warriors will merge into one.
   The scene then cuts to your party's battle with Freeza. After you knock
     Freeza's Hit points down to a low level, he will transform into
     stage 2 Freeza.
   During your first battle turn with stage 2 Freeza, Piccolo joins your
     party. After defeating stage 2 Freeza, Freeza disappears and you are
     sent to the valley that you originally fought the Ginew squad in(you
     are now back on section 3 of the Namek world map).

 Section 10, The legend of the Super Saiyajin

   After returning to the third section of the Namek world map, seek out
     the Namek village that is in the cliffs in the upper right section of
     the map. Standing in the center of the village are Tsumuri and
     Mai-ma, the Namek warriors that were in your party earlier. Talk to
     them, they will give you a choice, Piccolo can get both the Namek's
     Battle power, but it will mean that Dende will leave your party.
     Do you: Take their power, but lose Dende/Stay the way you are.
     (if Piccolo takes the power, his base card will change to the #8
     Battle card(Wildcard).
   After you've made your decision about the Namek's Battle power, you
     will then need to find Freeza. Freeza(2nd stage) is in the cliffs
     below the Namek village, along with a number of henchmen. When you
     confront him, you will need to battle through three groups of various
     henchmen, before you can fight Freeza. When you defeat the last of
     the henchmen, and Freeza is about to battle you, he will transform
     himself into stage 3. You then fight him in this form.
   After a few battle turns Freeza will leave the battle, you then can
     fly around and look for him. Every few random battles you get into
     will be against Freeza, he will leave after a few battle turns like
     he did before.
   After a certain amount of short battles(usually 3) with Freeza, he
     calls your party to the island at the bottom right of the map. You
     then start battling Freeza(stage 3) again.
   When Freeza(stage 3) is nearly defeated, he will transform once again,
     this time into Freeza stage 4(the Freeza we all know and love ;).
     You then must fight him in this form.
   After a number of battle turns, the scene cuts to show Gokou emerge
     from the healing tank inside Freeza's spaceship. You now control
     Gokou. Bring Gokou to where your party is battling Freeza on the
     island. Make sure to stop at an Item card station and stock up on
     Item cards to help you in your fight against Freeza before you get
     there.
   When you arrive at the island, find Freeza and your party. When Gokou
     lands next to the party, he joins it, and together you all battle
     Freeza.
   After Freeza is defeated you have finished the game. The credits roll
     by under a picture of Gokou flying with Gohan over Namek. Your other
     party members fly by one at a time under them. After the credits are
     finished the word "END" appears with a picture of Gokou's head
     inside. He is in Super Saiyajin form.
