Stamina: Superhuman | Superhuman, however, KaioKen drains his stamina quickly, especially when used 3x or higher | Massively superhuman (Capable of using KaioKen x100, which should require massively more stamina than the highest KaioKen he had used until the, which was KaioKen x4) | Massively superhuman, Higher as a Super Saiyan | Massively superhuman | Massively superhuman | Massively Superhuman, however, Super Saiyan 3 drains his stamina quickly

Range: Standard melee range. Planetary with ki-blasts. (Comparable to Piccolo) | Standard melee range. Planetary with ki-blasts. (Should be far superior to Piccolo, who managed to fire a ki-blast from the Earth to the moon).

Intelligence: Genius in regards to fighting (Goku has decades of fighting experience, in which he has faced demons such as Piccolo, Janemba and Garlic Jr., other Saiyans such as Vegeta, Nappa, Raditz, Turles and Broly, mad scientists such as Dr. Wheelo or the Red Ribbon Army, galactic conquerors such as Slug, Cooler, Bojack or Frieza, androids and robots such as Mecha Cooler, Android 13, Android 14, Android 15 and Cell and monsters such as Hirudegarn). Outside of fighting, he lacks knowledge as he didn't bother to spend time getting educated

Weaknesses: Kaio-ken strains his body, causing him intense pain and exhaustion if he overuses it. His Spirit Bomb requires a long charge up period, during which time he is vulnerable. | Given he can use kaio-ken x100, it is unlikely that most of the lesser levels of kaio-ken would do any extensive damage. | Super Saiyan 3 drains his ki rapidly and will exhaust him within minutes, however, as an Angel, the issue seems to be mitigated.

Notable Attacks/Techniques:


 * -|Offensive Techniques=
 * Kamehameha: Goku's signature attack. A powerful Ki blast fired with two hands after concentrating a large amount of Ki.
 * Continuous Kamehameha: Goku fires multiple one-handed Kamehamehas from both hands, inflicting a great deal of damage.
 * Bending Kamehameha: A version of the Kamehameha for which the user can change the course, allowing the user to surprise his opponent.
 * Twin Dragon Shot: A double energy sphere controlled version of the Kamehameha.
 * Super Kamehameha: An advanced and more powerful version of the Kamehameha.
 * Kaio-ken Kamehameha: A combination of the Kaio-ken and Super Kamehameha that inflicts extreme damage depending on what Kaio-ken level he is using for the attack.
 * Instant Kamehameha: A combination of the Instant Transmission and Super Kamehameha.
 * True Kamehameha: A more powerful version of the Super Kamehameha used by Super Saiyan 3 Goku.
 * Double Kamehameha: A two-handed version of the Kamehameha.
 * Kiai: A technique where the user affects the air currents around him with ki to produce powerful shockwaves in order to strike the opponent at mid range.
 * Spirit Shot: A two-handed energy technique in which the user stretches their arms out and blows the opponent(s) away with dual Kiai blasts.
 * Invisible Eye Blast: A Kiai technique shot from the eyes.
 * Destructo Disc: A razor-sharp disc of Ki that can slice through almost any substance.
 * Explosive Wave: A technique where the user bursts out ki from all over their body in order to repel the opponents around them.
 * Spirit Bomb: Users of the Spirit Bomb gather huge amounts of energy from all chosen surrounding life forms and inanimate objects to conduct that energy into a massive sphere of astounding destructive power.
 * Fusion Spirit Bomb: A normal Spirit Bomb formed with the energy gathered and then granted to someone else to use it.
 * Large Spirit Bomb: A larger and more powerful version of the Spirit Bomb, in which Goku stores the energy in the form of a giant light blue energy sphere in the sky.
 * Instant Spirit Bomb: A combination of the Instant Transmission and Spirit Bomb.
 * Super Spirit Bomb: A larger and more powerful version of the Large Spirit Bomb, which is directly powered by the energy of the living beings and Goku needs them to raise their hands to accumulate their energy.
 * Saiyan Aura Blast: A yellow energy wave fired with one hand.
 * Dragon Fist: Goku begins the attack by making a straight fist faced at his enemy, and charges him. Then once his fist, along with his own body, exits the stomach or chest of the target, the energy will be amplified massively compared to Goku's normal power and his ki will explode out in the form of an enormous golden dragon and then finally collides into the target, possibly destroying the opponent in its path or leaving a gaping hole.
 * -|Support Techniques=
 * Solar Flare: The user places their hands close to the center of their face with the fingers spread toward their eyes. The user then calls out the name of the technique, which provokes a white light to fire out and blind everything watching except the user, since they are projecting the light.
 * KaioKen: A technique that multiplies the user's ki for a "heart beat" - thus increasing his/her power and speed and enabling him/her to inflict serious damage to opponents who are considerably stronger than him/her. However, the downside of the Kaio-ken is that it takes a heavy toll on the user's body, making them more vulnerable to enemy attacks. While in the state, the user's aura color becomes crimson. The technique requires the use of ki control to handle it properly.
 * KaioKen x2: Multiplies Goku's stats by two.
 * KaioKen x3: Multiplies Goku's stats by three.
 * KaioKen x 4: Multiplies Goku's stats by four.
 * KaioKen x10: Multiplies Goku's stats by ten.
 * KaioKen x20: Multiplies Goku's stats by twenty.
 * KaioKen x100: Multiplies Goku's stats by a hundred.
 * Give Me Energy!: Lifting up his hands towards the sky, Goku concentrates on drawing a massive amount of energy above his head. However, it takes time to draw it in, leading Goku to be wide open and stuck in place for several seconds. It is used in combination with the Spirit Bomb, drastically increasing its already great power.
 * Power up to the Very Limit: A technique which allows the user to instantly regain all of their ki, puts them at max power, and increases all their stats. It takes Goku one minute of charging his energy without being interrupted to use this technique.
 * Energy Shield: A technique used to generate an energy shield around the user to protect them from attacks.
 * Healing: It allows the user to heal another and resurrect being's wounds and restore them to somewhat full strength.
 * Energy Absorption: The ability to absorp the power from a ki-based attack.
 * Telekinesis: A technique that allows the user to manipulate objects and other people with the power of one's mind.
 * Sealing Spell: A spell capable of sealing an entity in any kind of object.
 * Instant Transmission: A technique for traveling long distances instantly by teleporting. It was shown to be able to teleport to other dimensions, such as teleporting from the mortal world to the afterlife.
 * -|Transformations=
 * Pseudo Super Saiyan: Through rage of being beat down, Goku unleashed a huge amount of aura and became a false-like Super Saiyan, which gave him more speed and strength for a few seconds enough to thrash Lord Slug.
 * Super Saiyan: Legendary transformation which dratically increses Goku's power. The first Super Saiyan transformation, achieved by Goku after witnessing Frieza murder his best friend, Krillin.
 * Spirit Bomb Super Saiyan: The result of a Super Saiyan form becoming empowered through Spirit Bomb Absorption.
 * Super Saiyan Second Grade: The first branch of the advanced Super Saiyan forms, achieved through intense training in the Super Saiyan form. In the form, every nerve is concentrated, sending ki through the body to inflate the muscles. It raises both power and speed.
 * Super Saiyan Third Grade: The second branch of advanced Super Saiyan forms, achieved through intense training in the Super Saiyan form. All natural inhibitions of the body are completely removed in this state, resulting in 100% utilization of strength and stamina reserves.
 * Super Saiyan Full Power: The mastered state of the ordinary Super Saiyan form.
 * Super KaioKen: A combination of the Super Saiyan transformation and the KaioKen technique.
 * Super Saiyan 2: The direct successor to the first Super Saiyan transformation. It is very similar to the original form in appearance and attainment; however, the power output is far greater, as speed, strength, and energy output all drastically increase.
 * Super Saiyan 3: The third form of Super Saiyan and the massively more powerful successor to the second transformation.
 * Fusion Dance: A short series of poses that are performed by two characters of equal power levels and roughly equal size. To correctly perform the Fusion, the fusees must strike the poses in a perfectly symmetrical image of one another. The result of a correctly performed Fusion Dance is a superior being whose power is multiplied several-fold over that of the individual fusees.
