User:Ilovefoxes/Powerlevel

This is a list of known and official power levels in the Dragon Ball universe. All of the levels on this list are taken from the manga, official databooks, anime, movies, games and stated mathematical calculations.

No power levels were officially recorded after the Frieza Saga other then a few stated by Frieza's scouters while fighting Future Trunks.

Manga

Here are all the power levels stated in the manga. There are also included values gathered by mathematical calculations.

The largest power level stated in the manga is Freeza in second form, which he estimates would be "over 1,000,000". This is also the last power level number stated with exception of Trunks power level of 5 (disguising himself as a normal human).

In the original tankoubon compilation of the manga, Jeice reads Vegeta's battle power at "close to 20,000", which would seem to contradict Vegeta previously being 24,000. In the anime and Daizenshuu 7, his battle power for the fight with Recoom was corrected to 30,000, and this was the figure that was used for the kanzenban re-release of the manga following the first edition.

Databooks

The following values are taken from databooks and guides.

Weekly Jump

Daizenshuu 7, page 82

Daizenshuu 7, page 83

Super Exciting Guide

Super Exciting Guide, page 62

Super Exciting Guide, page 63

The first source is a 1989 Weekly Jump edition. It contatins several values before Vegeta's, as it was released while the manga was in the battle beetween Goku and Vegeta.

The second source is the Daizenshuu 7th guide from 1996. It is focused on Goku power level evolution, and reveals Goku main opponentes and buddies up to the final battle with Freeza.

The third is the Super Exciting Guide, it reprints the values early listed in the Daizenshuu. While there is no new info about power levels, it reveals the multiplication factor of the Super Saiyan transformations.

Origin

Both Weekly Jump and Daizenshuu share the same source, as the values match eachother. These values are rounded at least in multiples of ten. However, the Daizenshuu included values taken from the manga, and these values aren't multiples of ten.

It should be noted that the Daizenshuu focus on Goku evolution, and thus several power levels have been omitted. Some values are revealed only in the Weekly Jump, other values are in the characters descriptions. Because of this, it's believable that several official power levels from the Freeza saga were never released.

Consistency

The Weekly Jump list Gohan and Goku during the battle with the saiyans as "over 2,800" and "over 8,000" respectively. The Daizenshuu round the values to just "2,800" and "8,000" (and also states Goku using the Kaio-ken X4 as 32,000), leading to the conclusion that it is no significant amount.

There is a small inconsistency beetween the Daizenshuu and Weekly Jump edition. The Daizenshuu list Goku against Raditz as 416, a value taken from Raditz scouter in the manga, however the Weekly Jump list Goku during the 23rd Tournament as 910. The Weekly Jump suggests that Goku (and perhaps Piccolo) was suppressing his power back against Raditz by a large difference (the same way Krillin, Piccolo and Gohan did when they first meet the saiyans), and the Daizenshuu was not supposed to list supressed power levels.

The manga also suggests that 416 and 408 are not the real amount of Goku and Piccolo respectively power levels, as both Vegeta and Nappa dispose of their scouters while reading the false amount of Krillin, Piccolo and Gohan, commenting that Raditz's trust in the scouters lead to his defeat.

Transformations

Here is a list of transformation and Kaio-ken technique multipliers.

• The Kaio-ken N increases the power level by a factor of N.
• The Oozaru transformation increases the power level by a factor of 10.
• The Super Saiyan transformation increases the power level by a factor of 50.
• The Super Saiyan 2 transformation increases the "strength" by a factor of 2 compared to the regular Super Saiyan.
• The Super Saiyan 3 transformation increases the "strength" by a factor of 4 compared to the Super Saiyan 2.

The Super Exciting Guide features a reprint of Daizenshuu 7's power level list. But in addition to this, in the training section, it contains some information on the relative strengths of the various levels of Super Saiyan.

Somewhat interestingly, the comment on regular Super Saiyan is the only one that uses the term "battle power", while for 2 and 3 it simply says "strength".

However, there is no information about the change in power of the Super Saiyan Full Power, thus it can NOT yet be assumed that the Super Saiyan 2 and 3 increase the base power by 100 and 400 times respectively.

Kiri

Babidi and his men intruduce a new ki measuring device, which they use the term "energy" instead of "power level". It states that Goku had 3,000 kiri in Super Saiyan form, while Yakon had only 800.

It's unknow if the kiri is proportional to the scouter measuring system, as little info is given about it.

Assuming that it is proportional, that would lead to conclusion Goku to have 6,000 and 24,000 kiri in Super Saiyan 2 and 3 respectively.

Yakon	Babidi statement	800	Volume 38, chapter 451	Babidi: "...Is this measuring device malfunctioning...? But if he really is 3,000 kiri... Then Yakon can't win against him... Yakon's energy is 800 kiri..."
