Following some characters bio are external links that focus on that character. Template:Spoilers

Villains

Appule Template:Appears in:DBZ

File:Appule2.JPG
Appule

One of Freeza's henchmen on Namek. He often takes orders from higher ranking officials such as Kiwi, Dodoria and Zarbon. His main mission was to help collect the Dragon Balls and report any sighting of Namekian villages. He is later assigned to overseeing a healing Vegeta so he could be queried later, but things go wrong as Vegeta kills him when he escapes from the healing tank rejuvenation chamber to go after Freeza. In the anime his head was unceremoniously stepped on after death. In the manga, Vegeta breaks out of the healing chamber, and in one blast kills Appule, instead of stepping on his head.

Baby Template:Appears in:DBGT

Babidi Template:Appears in:DBZ

File:BabidiWizard.jpg
The evil sorcerer Babidi

Taking over the minds of very powerful beings, Babidi was determined to resurrect Majin Buu so that he could continue his father's work, namely conquering the universe, and thus make him proud. With the help of Dabura, Pui Pui, Yakon, and Vegeta (who was seized by Babidi to destroy Supreme Kai and help release Buu). Babidi's mental abilities are very powerful, surpassing those of various mystical individuals who reside in Other World such as the telepath King Kai, and illusionist Princess Snake. After Buu is released, Vegeta nearly kills Babidi when trying to destroy Buu. When Buu is seemingly destroyed, Piccolo bisects Babidi and leaves him for dead. After Buu revives himself, he finds Babidi who then orders Buu to revive him. Babidi orders Buu to kill Dabura, Supreme Kai, Gohan, Piccolo, Goten, Trunks, Vegeta (before his sacrifice) and whoever else stands in his way. As Buu is very disobedient, Babidi can only control him by threatening to seal him up. After an encounter with Super Saiyan 3 Goku, Buu learns that he is stronger than Babidi. Realizing this, Buu strangles Babidi (so Babidi can't say the spell to seal him up), and then punches his head off in rebellion. Babidi is seen in hell with Cell and Frieza but wanted the Z fighters to win after having created a grudge against Majin Buu.

Bibidi Template:Appears in:DBZ

File:Bibidi.jpg
Bibidi

A short wizard who accidentally brought Majin Buu into existence millions of years ago. Quite likely drunk with the power of commanding such a creature, Bibidi embarked on a quest to dominate the universe. This quest involved the elimination of most of the Kaioshin that ruled the universe at the time. When Buu became disobedient, however, Bibidi prudently sealed the genie within a large purple Egg (that bears a striking resemblence to a Xenomorph Egg) while going from world to world. He is eventually killed by East Kaioshin after setting Buu's egg on planet Earth. He isn't seen at all in the manga and is only seen in a few flashbacks during the anime of the Buu Saga. His name is part of a word play from the classic Walt Disney motion picture, Cinderella: Bibidi Babidi Boo.

Bojack Template:Appears in:DB Movie

File:Bojack1.jpg
Bojack

Bojack is a big, muscular alien who plays the role of the main villain in Bojack Unbound. He somewhat resembles a gypsy-pirate, with a blue-green skin, long orange hair and a long scar over his face. He is able to transform into his final form; his skin turns yellowish green, his hair becomes red, and his clothes from the waist up are removed, due to the increase in his muscle mass. Because of his ambition to rule the universe, he was sealed inside a star by the Kaios, but released when North Kaio's planet was destroyed by Cell's suicide explosion. He travels to Earth to with his henchmen to rid himself of any obstacles in a martial arts tournament, but is stopped by Gohan and his group. He has the ability to copy powers.

Bojack's Team

Bido Template:Appears in:DB Movie
File:Bido.gif
Bido

Bidō is the large henchman of Bojack's crew, who has a mohawk and orange goatee. He tag-teams with Bujin in order to take down the opponents that Bujin traps. Right before he can kill Trunks, Vegeta blasts through the roof, knocking him and Bujin down. After Gohan turns Super Saiyan 2, he is punched in half and killed by the Saiyan, along with his ally Bujin.

Bidō's name seems to have its root in the Japanese word hidō (非道), which means "unjust" and is often pronounced "bidō" when added to the end of words like gokuaku and zangyaku.

Bujin Template:Appears in:DB Movie
Bujin

Bujin is the short, psychic henchmen of Bojack. He likes to use a paralyzing attack on his opponents to stop them in their tracks. He and Bido almost succeeded in killing Trunks if not for Vegeta who intervened. Along with Bido, he is killed by Gohan after going Super Saiyan 2 by getting kicked through the waist, separating him in two pieces.

Bujin's name is rooted in the Japanese word bōjakubujin (傍若無人), which means "arrogance or audacity" and is the same word from which Bojack's name is derived.

Gokua Template:Appears in:DB Movie
File:Kogu.jpg
Kogu

(FUNimation's dub: Kogu)

Gokua is the swordsman of Bojack's team. He surprises Trunks and battles him, showing that he is quite strong from the even fight. Like Bojack, he is able to power-up into his final form, which turns his skin a lighter green and increases his muscle mass. Once Trunks changes into a Super Saiyan, Gokua finds himself outmatched. His sword is shattered and he is defeated with one punch that goes completely through his abdomen.

Gokua's name is derived from the Japanese word gokuaku (極悪), which means "heinous". He is not to be confused with the hero of Dragon Ball, Goku, hence why his name was changed to "Kogu" for the English dub.

Zangya Template:Appears in:DB Movie
File:Zangya.jpg
Zangya

Zangya is Bojack's only female underling. She's quite a powerful fighter and takes on Krillin. Near the end of the movie, she was killed when Bojack pushed her in front of him and blasted her in the back in an attempt to distract Gohan. Zangya makes a cameo appearance in the movie Fusion Reborn, resurrected from the dead through a mishap in the afterlife caused by Janemba.

Her name derives from the Japanese word zangyaku (残虐), which means "cruelty." Being one of the few female villains in the series, she made an appearance as a playable character in the fighting games Super Butoden 2 (released in Japan only) and Budokai Tenkaichi 2.

Coola

Coola's Team

Dore Template:Appears in:DB Movie
File:Doore2.JPG
Dore

(FUNimation's dub: Doore)

Vaguely Hulk-like in appearance, Dore (ドーレ Dōre) accompanies Coola along with the rest of his team to Earth. He and the others are assigned to finding Son Goku so his master can redeem his family's hurt pride. Finding Son Gohan instead, Dore torments him by squeezing his head in his bare hand like a vice. Piccolo catches him off guard and soon thereafter finishes him off with a homing ki blast as Dore flies after a fleeing Gohan, who was trying to escape to heal his father with senzu beans.

According to Shonen Jump, he was a former wrestler in a Space Pro-Wrestling league where he killed all his challengers in the ring. He is extremely tough due to coming from a planet of magma.

Akin to all Dragon Ball characters, Dore and his fellow henchmen's names are derived from puns - in this case, condiments and salad dressings. His own name was lifted from doresshingu, or salad dressing.

Naise Template:Appears in:DB Movie
File:Neiz.JPG
Naise

Naise (ネイズ Neizu) can hide his head in his shoulders in order to dodge blasts. He fights alongside Thousar and Dore, pulling off poses similar to the Ginyu Special Corps. He battles against Son Goku at first, but eventually fights Piccolo with the others. After Dore's death, Naise attempts to neutralize Piccolo using one of his special techniques, only to have the Namek smirk as he grabs Naise when he comes in to gloat, reflecting the attack back at him and killing his opponent instantly. According to Shonen Jump, he prides himself on his speed and can create an electric charge from his body.

Naise takes his name from the common condiment mayonnaise.

Thousar Template:Appears in:DB Movie
File:Salsa6.JPG
Thousar

(FUNimation's dub: Salza)

Thousar (サウザー Sauzaa) is a blue-skinned "pretty boy" alien (much like Zarbon) with blonde hair who serves as Coola's right hand man and leader of his Armored Squadron. He is able to slice through objects using a blade of ki formed in his right hand.He also has an uncanny French accent. Thousar is the only member to survive Piccolo's initial attack, as he's able to be a match just long enough for his master to take matters into his own hands. Thousar then takes Son Gohan and Kuririn by surprise, burning their bag of senzu before kicking both around. He then confronts an angered Son Goku only to have his punch have no effect, and is driven into a cliffside just by Goku channeling his power. Thousar survives, and in the end tries a sneak attack to kill Goku and his friends when they have almost no energy left after Coola's apparent death. Piccolo saves them all after killing Thousar with his Makankōsappō.

Before the release of the Coola movie, Shonen Jump stated that Thousar is from the same planetary system as Jheese and that he fought with Ginyu over leadership over the Armored Squadron.

Thousar's name comes from a pun on Thousand Island salad dressing. Coincidentally, his name change in the dub keeps with the condiment pun, as salsa is Spanish for sauce. Also, in the FUNimation dub, Thousar speaks with a distinctive French accent.

Dabura Template:Appears in:DBZ


Dodoria Template:Appears in:DBZ, DBGT

Dodoria's Elite Template:Appears in:DB Movie

File:Dodoriaelite2.jpg
Dodoria's Elite

Appearing only in the Burdock special, they are four of Freeza's lower-level warriors. Considered elite amongst the rank and file, they accompany Dodoria to Planet Meat to assist him in killing Burdock's crew. All four thought that because they had easily beaten Burdock's friends they thought they could take out Burdock without much difficulty. They were mistaken, and after a lengthy struggle, Burdock managed to kill all of them.

Doctor Myu Template:Appears in:DBGT

File:Doctor Myū photo.jpg
Doctor Myu

Dr. Myu is a brilliant scientist who desires nothing more than total control of the galaxy. Dr. Myu masterminds the plot to build an ultimate machine mutant with enough power to see his sinister goal of control through to the end. To this end, he created a powerful enforcer named General Rilldo, and tried to gather the Black Star Dragon Balls to use them to complete his creation, Baby, and use it to take over the universe. However, Goku, Pan, and Trunks got past Rilldo and foiled Myu's plans. Dr. Myu escaped, but was killed when Baby burst out of his body. It was revealed then that Baby was actually the one that programmed Dr. Myu, and not the other way around.

Dr. Myu later teams up with Dr. Gero in Hell and creates Hell Fighter #17, who controls the original Android 17 and converges their powers together to set a rift between Earth and Hell. Hell's 17 and the two scientists escape, following which the two 17s eventually fuse together to become Super 17. Super 17 betrays and kills Gero thanks to Myu's programming changes, then goes on to dominate the Z Fighters (including SS4 Goku thanks to his absorption field ability) that Myu truly believes he can take over the universe, until Android 18 shows up and gets in his head by appealing to his sense of self.

Myu, in anger at 18's apparent influence, orders Super 17 to destroy Goku and 18 with his Electro Eclipse Bomb attack so as to show them "who he really is" and that he "can't be manipulated or controlled". However, 17 turns to Myu, the very man who actually had been using him the entire time, and destroys him with the attack.

Dr. Raichi

File:DrRaichi.jpg
Dr. Raichi

A villain from the FC & PlayDia game, DBZ Gaiden: Plan to Eradicate the Saiyans. This Tsufurujin releases destron gas on Earth, which makes the Z-Fighters lose their ability to use ki attacks. They defeat the androids that guard the Destron generators, then Freeza, Cooler, Lord Slug and Turles show up. King Kai reveals to the heroes that they are ghost fighters sent by Dr. Raichi, and will continually re-materialize even when slain. The heroes eventually figure out that the villains must be defeated the same way they originally died (Freeza must be chopped in half, Slug must be weakened by whistling, etc). Attacking the Earth is all part of Dr. Raichi's plan to lure Goku, Gohan, Trunks and Vegeta (the last remaining saiyans) to the 'Dark Planet'. Once on the Dark Planet, they battle Dr. Raichi, whose only attack is barrier, and destroy him. He re-materializes and so our heroes learn that he too is a ghost fighter, generated by Hatchhyack. Vegeta destroys him again, blasting him to nothingness to prevent his re-materialization. He is named after Lychee.

Freeza Template:Appears in:DBZ, DBGT Template:Appears in:DB Movie

General Rilldo Template:Appears in:DBGT

File:General Rilldo.png
General Rilldo

General Rilldo was a machine mutant created by Doctor Myu. He used Giru as a spy to monitor Goku's, Pan's, and Trunks' attacks, abilities, and secrets. When Goku and his friends landed on a mysterious planet in search of the Black Star Dragon Balls, he used three robots called the Sigma Force to capture them. The Sigma Force captured Goku and Trunks and flew off, with Giru along with them, leaving Pan alone. She snuck into the building that the Sigma Force brought Goku and Trunks and used robot body parts as a disguise. She saw Giru at Rilldo's side and was horrified at the sight. Later, Goku and Trunks escape from the examination room that the Sigma Force have put them in. Rilldo demands that they dispatch of the two Saiyans quickly. The Sigma Force are easily disposed of and left Rilldo to take matters into his own hands. After Pan reunites with Goku and Trunks, Goku sensed a powerful opponent headed their way. Rilldo had followed them back to the spaceship that the three had used to arrive on the planet.

File:Meta Rilldo.gif
Meta Rilldo
File:Hyper Meta Rilldo.gif
Hyper Meta Rilldo

Rilldo uses a special beam that fires from his mouth and turns anything it touches into metal. After a couple of minutes, Trunks was turned into a solid piece of metal and was taken away to be disected. Goku then followed Rilldo and found himself once again facing the three robots that Rilldo sent to destroy him. After a long battle, Rilldo appeared once again to capture Goku. After being defeated, Rilldo used whatever energy he had left to absorb the scrap parts left behind by the destroyed Sigma Force to transform into Meta Rilldo. Goku had tried to defeat him with everything he had, but it was not enough. He transformed into a Super Saiyan and used every bit of energy he had to put Rilldo in his place. But when things were just starting to look good for Goku, Rilldo went through one more transformation called Hyper Meta Rilldo. His whole body became a silver-metallic color. He was able to fuse his body with any metal on the planet and, being that almost the entire planet was covered in metal, he seemed almost invincible. After many punches, kicks, and Kamehamehas, Rilldo had finally been put to rest for good.

Ginyu Force

Hachihyaku

File:Raichimonster.jpg
Hachihyakku as a robot.

A machine from the Famicom & PlayDia game, Dragon Ball Z Gaiden: Plan to Eradicate the Saiyans built by Dr. Raichi. His plan was to use Hachihyaku to get revenge on the Saiyans. Hachihyaku is a device powered by the hate of the Tsufurujin. He is first used to generate ghost warriors until he manifests in a powerful android body. Hachihyaku devastated the heroes, until the Super Saiyans all combined their powers together into one massive wave of energy that defeated him, ending the threat of the ghost warriors. His name is Japanese for 800, and read backwards is 108 (hyakuhachi), an auspicious number in many Asian cultures.

Hirudegarn Template:Appears in:DB Movie

File:Hildegarn.jpg
Hirudegarn's base form
File:Hildegarn.PNG
Hirudegarn's transformed form

Hirudegarn is the enormous monster and main villain in the Dragon Ball Z movie, Wrath of the Dragon. He was created by a group of black magicians who cast a spell of negative energy on a menacing statue and brought it to life over 1,000 years before the time line of the Dragon Ball series on the planet Konats. Before it could destroy Konats, two brothers, Tapion and Minosha, managed to freeze the monster in his tracks by each playing their divine ocarina. This gave a priest the opportunity to cut the monster in half with a divine sword. Since Hirudegarn couldn't be killed at the time, his upper-half was sealed in Tapion and the other half in Minoshia. However, fearing that the monster might reappear someday, the brothers were separated, each sealed in a music box oracle, and were shot into opposite ends of the galaxy far away from each other. He has eventually revived on the planet Earth where Son Goku defeats him for good.

He is able to undergo a metamorphosis of sorts, and emerge a more powerful insect-like creature with the ability to fly. Hiredugarn is only tangible when he's attacking, otherwise, he can instantly teleport away.

Janemba Template:Appears in:DB Movie

File:J Tank Boy.jpg

File:Janenpa2.jpg
First form

Janemba is the main villain of Fusion Reborn. He is a being of pure evil created when a teenage ogre named Saike accidentally destroys all of the evil purifying tanks in hell. The evil forms around him to create a giant, yellow, and childlike being that turns hell into his own paradice. Goku and Pikkon are sent out to deal with him. Eventually, Janemba is beaten by Goku, but this forces Janemba to transform into a second state, which easily defeats Goku. Vegeta shows up to save him, and the two defeat Janemba by fusing into Gogeta, who purifies Janemba, turning him back into Saike.

File:Janemba2.jpg
second form

His first form (called Janempa in the FUNimation English dub) is chubby and very large. Janemba's intelligence is limited; the only word he knows how to say is his own name. His attacks involve things such as creating miniature versions of himself and of Goku, creating dimensional portals, and shooting ki blasts from the 4 holes on his chest. After being defeated, Janemba transformed. The second form is more powerful and, unlike his previous form, is deadly serious. This form is able to use a deconstruction/reconstruction teleportation known as the "Bunkai Teleport", portals with which he can attack through, able to stretch his arm at lengths, turning objects into deadly weapons, project his opponents' own Ki back at them through portals, and wield a powerful sword capable of shooting Ki out in strikes.

King Cold Template:Appears in:DBZ

File:KingCold.jpg
King Cold

He is the father of Freeza and Coola. He appears briefly at the start of the Trunks arc along with his now cyber-organic son to destroy Earth as revenge for Freeza's near death by Son Goku's hands. After Trunks shows up and easily dispatches Freeza, Cold offers Trunks the opportunity take his son's place. His attempt at trickery against the mysterious youth fails, as once in possession of Trunks' sword Cold finds the Saiyan draws his power from elsewhere. Cold's pleas for mercy fall on deaf ears as Trunks quickly finishes him off.

Kiwi Template:Appears in:DBZ, DBGT

File:Cuisurprise2.jpg
Kiwi

(FUNimation's dub: Cui)

Kiwi (キュイ, Kiwi) was a high-ranking henchman of Freeza who used his superior rank and high power level to instill fear in those he felt were beneath him in power levels. He was killed on Namek by Vegeta. A few others of his species were also seen throughout the series.

Kuriza

Lord Slug Template:Appears in:DB Movie

File:LordSlug.jpg
Lord Slug

Lord Slug is the main antagonist of the fourth DBZ Movie, Lord Slug. He was one of the Ancient Nameks who discovered the key to unlocking a higher consciousness within. Known as Super Nameks, they soon became intoxicated by their new power and began to misuse it. With the power of the Dragon Balls, the people of Planet Namek were able to banish the Super Nameks from their planet for good, but the tyrannical Lord Slug continued conquering planets until he reached Earth where he used the Dragon Balls to restore his lost youth. Another part of his plan was to freeze the planet to make it a home for his soldiers, but in the end he was killed by Son Goku. It's interesting to note that in the Japanese version of Movie 4, Lord Slug doesn't tell people that he's a Namekian, and possibly doesn't even know. The back story about Slug being a Super Namekian is added into the English dub, and isn't in the Japanese version. He is voiced by Yūsaku Yara and by Brice Armstrong In the English dub of the movie and Budokai Tenkaichi 2.

Lord Slug's Team

File:LordSlugsTeam1.gif
Lord Slug's Team

Lord Slug's minions follow his orders and help him take over planets, and although they are of different species, each of them sports a short pair of devilish horns on their foreheads, and they are also incapable of withstanding levels of sunlight and warmth which are tolerable to Earthlings. They include:

  • Angira, a blue-skinned being with blonde hair who bears a mild resemblance to Zarbon and who can extend his arms to great lengths, much in the manner of a Namekian. He dies in a fight with Goku when Goku knocks his own energy attack back at him and he accidentally swallows it.
  • Dorodado, a large orange being with batlike wings who resembles Dodoria (in both name and appearance). He doesn't appear to be very powerful, and he is easily killed by Piccolo after Piccolo goads him into a fight.
  • Medamotcha, a small, green froglike alien with wild yellow eyes and an insane laugh. He possesses the ability to create multiple miniature versions of himself that sprout from his back and latch onto victims, draining them of their energy. He is (presumably) killed by Goku with a powerful punch to the stomach.
  • Zeeun, a large, muscular man with long brown hair, Zeeun, despite being feature prominently on the poster artwork for the film, is in it only briefly. He is killed by Slug with a finger-beam through the torso, after he slips up and calls Slug old.
  • Gyoshu and Kakuja, two short, hooded scientists who run Slug's ship. Gyoshu is killed by Slug for saying it would take too long to terra-freeze Earth, claiming he would need ten days. Kakuja, his replacement, manages to do it in less than three days. He later dies when Slug accidentally destroys the ship while trying to hit Gohan.
  • Slug also employs several identically-dressed soldiers who first appear wearing helmets that cover their entire heads. When their helmets are removed, they resemble purple versions of one of Freeza's four henchmen Bardock fought with from Bardock: The Father of Goku. Most of them are killed by Gohan and Piccolo; the rest are killed by Slug for running away from Goku, or when Slug accidentally destroys the ship.

Majin Buu Template:Appears in:DBZ, DBGT

Majin Grunts Template:Appears in:DBZ

Babidi has many foot soldiers under his control; their uniforms resemble Pui Pui's. They really posed no threat to any of the Z Fighters. All of them were killed by the Z Fighters during their assault on Babidi's ship.

Ozotto

Ozotto appears as the final opponent in the arcade game DBZ: V.R.V.S. and has the power to shapeshift into certain Z-Fighters. He also uses his tail to attack. He is nicknamed "The Super Monster". He hasn't appeared anywhere else in the DBZ universe and is exclusive to this game.

Piccolo Daimaō Template:Appears in:DB

Piccolo Daimaō's minions

Cymbal Template:Appears in:DB
File:Cymbol.jpg
Cymbal

Cymbal is Piccolo Daimaō's third minion. He resembles a humanoid plump dragon. He is sent by Piccolo to search for the Dragon Balls. He is killed by Yajirobe, who slices him in half with his katana, then roasts him over a fire and eats him.

Drum Template:Appears in:DB
File:Drum.gif
Drum

Drum is Piccolo Daimaō's fourth minion. Even though he's the shortest-lived evil spawn of Piccolo Daimao, up to this point he was the strongest since Piccolo created him when he was in his prime. Piccolo spits him out just as Tenshinhan arrives to try and trap Piccolo in the Mafu-ba. Drum attacks Tenshinhan, and clobbers him quite easily until Son Goku arrives, at which point Goku flies at him and knocks him out with one kick, and dies instantly by the attack.

Piano Template:Appears in:DB
File:Piano.gif
Piano

Piano is Piccolo Daimaō's first minion. The longest living member of Piccolo Daimaō's mutant spawns. He's a pterodactyl humanoid figure, and is very bright. He's killed by Piccolo Daimaō's crushing weight when Goku kicks Piccolo into him, killing him instantly.

Tambourine Template:Appears in:DB
Tambourine

Tambourine is Piccolo Daimaō's second minion and second most powerful servant, his orders were to hunt down and assassinate all contenders who participated in the Tenka-ichi Budôkai from the most recent dating back to the past ten and a few years so that Piccolo's hostile takeover is a smooth one. He was also ordered to pickup up any Dragon Balls he sees along the way if he happened to come across any. Tambourine kills Kuririn by chance, along with five other participants of the past tournaments. He even beat up kid Son Goku because he was weak from his battle with Tenshinhan and blinded with rage because Tambourine had just killed his best friend. Tambourine also destroyed the Kintoun cloud for good, until Goku got a new one from Karin later in the series. Tambourine was vaporized to bits by Goku's Kamehameha.

Pui Pui Template:Appears in:DBZ, DBGT

File:Puipui.jpg
Pui Pui

Pui Pui is a minion of Babidi, called a Majin, the guardian of level one in Babidi's Spaceship that housed Buu's cocoon. His home planet, Zoon, has a gravity of 10 G's, which he believes is an advantage against other fighters. However, Vegeta slaughters him without any effort because he had previously trained under 400 G's (450G's in the game Buu's fury). Pui Pui later makes a cameo appearance in the Super Android 17 Saga of Dragon Ball GT, where he is quickly killed by Goten while shooting a ki blast volley. In the English manga, he is referred to as Pocus.

Saibaimen Template:Appears in:DBZ, DBGT

File:Saibamen01.jpg
Saibamen

Small, humanoid creatures, they were used by the Saiyans for the purpose of training. During the battle with Nappa, six were grown in the Earth's soil to attack the defending Z-Fighters. One was killed by Vegeta after failing to defeat Tien, another had no choice but to use the self-destruct attack on Yamcha in order to win, three were killed by Krillin's raining energy blasts, and the remaining one was killed by Piccolo after it was weakened by Krillin's energy blast. They later appear in DBGT as they escaped from Hell, but they are taken down easily by Goten and Trunks.

Saibamen have very sharp claws, the ability to shoot a stream of acid from the top of their head, and can self-destruct like a bomb. Some compare them to the Cell Juniors, as they have a similar role. In Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 2, Dr. Gero has a group of differently-colored Saibamen called the Saiba Rangers, obviously a parodious reference to the Power Rangers.

Sigma Force Template:Appears in:DBGT

The Sigma Force was a group of four robots that act as Rilldo's soldiers. They have the ability to merge with Rilldo to make him much stronger. They where also about to fuse together in one being. The Sigma Force Cannon! The group consists of Nezi, Bizu, Natt, and Ribet.

Tullece Team

File:TurlesGoons.jpg
Tullece's Team

They serve Tullece during his attempt to plant the Tree of Might during the movie, The Tree of Might. All of their names are puns off of different nuts and beans. Tullece's team includes Amond, a tall, muscular human-like alien who (perhaps unintentionally) resembles Reacoom from the Ginyu Force but with Zarbon's hairstyle, Kakao, a pink and silver cyborg with powerful thrusters and jetpacks installed into his armor, Daīzu, a moderately short green-haired man with a ponytail, and Rezun and Rakasei, a pair of short purpple identical twins with the ability to combine their bodies to form a single entity. They fight against (and defeat) all of Goku's friends, before ganging up on Goku himself. After a short fight, Goku powers up immensely and defeats each of them with a single hit, and they all fall down around him. Whether or not they are killed is never stated.

Yakon Template:Appears in:DBZ, DBGT

File:Yakon.jpg
Yakon

Yakon is one of Babidi's majin minions. He is from a distant corner of the universe that has no light. He fights Son Goku on the second level of Babidi's spaceship. He can also feed on attacks like the Kamehameha and the Super Saiyan light aura. Goku was able to overcome this beast and beats Yakon by powering up and enlarging his aura and giving Yakon more energy than he could handle, causing Yakon to explode. Yakon later makes a cameo appearance in the Super Android 17 Saga of Dragon Ball GT where he catches Goten off guard (who had just killed Pui Pui) and was about to slice him up when Trunks kills him with an energy blast that blows him to bits.

File:Minosha.jpg
Tapion's younger brother, Minosha.

Minosha and Tapion are brothers who appear in the movie, Wrath of the Dragon. They were from the planet Konats, which was attacked and nearly destroyed by the monster Hirudegarn. Together, they sealed the two halves of Hirudegarn within themselves and were then sealed into two separate magical containers. To keep the monster from reviving, they were sent to different ends of the universe. Minosha, guardian of Hirudegarne's lower half, was freed by the evil magician Hoi and killed by Hirudegarn. Tapion, guardian of Hirudegarn's top half, wound up on Earth. Hoi, now in control of Hirudegarn's lower half, tricked the Z-Fighters into wishing for Shenlong to open the box and release Tapion. Outside of the box, Tapion could not contain Hirudegarn, as the monster's proximity to its other half gave it power. The monster rejoined with its other half, but Tapion attempted once more to contain it and have Trunks kill him. Trunks hesitated and the monster is again freed. After Goku defeated Hirudegarn, Tapion gave his sword to Trunks. Bulma gives Tapion a time machine, and he travels back to his home planet to be with his brother.

Moori Template:Appears in:DBZ

File:Moori.gif
Moori

Moori (also sometimes spelled Muri) is the elder of the Namekian village that Kuririn and Gohan first saw Freeza attacking. His fighting power isn't high, but he is very clever. He manages to destroy all of Freeza's scouters. This causes Freeza's collection of the Dragon Balls to be seriously delayed. Freeza later orders Moori to be slain along with his younger brothers Dende and Cargo. It was revealed by Dende that all the current Namekians on the planet Namek are the direct children of Saichoro (Guru), and thus are all brothers. Dodoria carries out Freeza's order, and breaks Moori's neck with his bare hands.

Moori is included in the wish to bring back those killed by Freeza and his men. Shortly before Guru dies again, he names Moori as the new Great Elder, saying that the Dragon Balls will shine again. Moori and his people eventually travel to a new planet similar to Namek with the help of the Dragon Balls. Moori appears again in the Buu Saga, when the Namekian Dragon Balls are needed to solve the Majin Buu crisis. It is revealed that because of Freeza's past attack on Namek, that Moori has powered up Namek's dragon Porunga — giving Porunga the ability to bring multiple people back to life with one wish.

Nail

Nail is a Namekian who looks exactly like Piccolo, apart from the clothes. He is described as the lone 'fighter class' Namekian left. He is the personal bodyguard to Saichoro (Guru), and was the strongest Namekian left on the planet. His official maximum fighting power is 42,000, as stated by Freeza.

During the Freeza Saga, Nail had to stall Freeza by himself in order to prevent him from obtaining the passcode to unlock the Dragonballs, gaining immortality, and possibly killing Saichoro. Even though Freeza was in his lowest power level, Nail was no match for the tyrant, and even lost an arm (which he regenerated using Sai Sei) during the battle. Before Freeza could finish Nail off, Nail revealed that this fight was to delay Freeza so Dende could get the Namek Dragon Ball's password to the Earthlings, Kuririn and Son Gohan. An enraged Freeza immediately left and Nail is left for dead on the ground.

Shortly afterwards a newly resurrected Piccolo arrives and finds the disabled Namek. Nail is still able to speak, and asks Piccolo to fuse with him in order to increase his chances against Freeza, and at the same time save his life. Piccolo agrees after some questioning of Nail's motives, and indeed his power level increases dramatically.

Princess Snake

A giant snake temptress who lures people into her castle on Serpent Road. She also goes by the name Jadōshin. She became the Snake Princess in 739 BC. and the only person who she ever tried to capture her was Enma Daiō 500 years ago. When Goku comes along, she tries to steal his heart, but his sense of loyalty to his family and friends is of course far too strong, so, she just turns into a giant fire-breathing snake and tries to eat him. It is unknown whether Piccolo, Tenshinhan, Chaozu, and Yamcha were also captured by her on their way to meet King Kai, or they simply ignored her castle and moved on. It could be possible that the Serpent Road has more relation to her, rather than to King Kai. She does not appear in the manga by Akira Toriyama.

Raiti and Zacro Template:Appears in:DBZ

Zacro (left) and Raiti (right)

Raiti and Zacro are both shape-shifters. They are trapped on a deserted planet. After seeing Gohan, Bulma, and Kuririn land on the planet, they trick them into thinking they are Namekians and that they are on the Planet Namek. They lead the heroes on a chase for the "Dragon Balls" hoping to get an opportunity to escape the planet on their spaceship.

Neither Raiti or Zacro appeared in the original manga, being anime-only filler characters for the Namek Saga.

Saichoro Template:Appears in:DBZ

Saichōrō

Saichoro (最長老, Saichōrō) (saichō-rō "longest aged" or "eldest"), known popularly as Guru due to FUNimation's English re-dubb, is the oldest and wisest remaining Namek in existence and the sole survivor of a cataclysmic climate shift several hundred years prior to the events in the series. All current Nameks alive on the planet are descended from him. (It was revealed that he had at least 108 children, though some may not have still been alive at the time of the Freeza Saga. Piccolo / Kami are descended from a Namek that died in the cataclysm: Katatsu.) He was also in control of the Dragonballs of Planet Namek (though he may not have created them). He had many powers similar to that of Kami on Earth, but it is never stated whether he was the local Kami of Namek. When he eventually dies, the Dragon Balls become solid stone.

Yardrat Template:Appears in:DBZ

This race was first met by Goku after the defeat of Frieza on Planet Namek. He arrived in an abandoned Ginyu pod that had already been pre-programmed for Yardratt. It is likely that the Ginyu Force were planning to destroy the Yardrats had they not been defeated on Namek. They are a physically weak race, but possess the ability to manipulate space and time, and teach Goku the Shunkanidou technique. In the video game Dragon Ball Z Sagas, an original character of the race is created; Soba, who has a sparring match with Goku just before he departs for Earth.
