How
This Chart Works:
Its not all that complicated. All of the powerlevels have
been split up into sagas, with the early DBZ levels being subdivided
into battles (note: these battles are not meant to match those found
in out Battle Chart). Along the right column of the chart you will
find an assortment of screenshots and captions. For the most part,
the captions on the right are more or less explanations of the
guesses we have made. Finally, to make heads or tails of the
coloration of the powerlevels, see the key below.

What it
means
|
|
|
1,000,000
|
Manga\
Daizenshyus
|
These levels came from the Japanese manga and daizenshu
either by direct reading or calculation based on a direct reading.
There is NO disputing these as they came from Toriyama himself!
Ex: The manga states form 2 Furiza has over 1,000,000; or Vegeta:
18,000 * 10 (ozouru) = 180,000
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
1,000,000
|
Calculated
|
While not stated outright in the Japanese manga or
daizenshu, these levels can be had by taking levels that did appear in
the Japanese manga or daizenshu and combining them with other known
facts from the Japanese manga or daizenshu.
Ex: Vegeta has 18,000. Ozouru multiplies your power by 10. Hence,
Ozouru Vegeta has 180,000. (180,000 x 10 = 180,000)
-or-
Ex: Goku has 300,000. All levels of Kaioken multiply your powerlevel
(except Kaioken x1). Hence, Goku Kaioken x20 has 6,000,000. (300,000 x
20 = 6,000,000)
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
1,000,000
|
Scouter Reading
|
These levels came directly from scouter readings in the
JAPANESE version of Dragonball. There is NO disputing these.
Ex: "Hmm.. the scouter only says 5,000."
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
1,000,000
|
Stated
|
These levels are stated by characters in the JAPANESE
version of Dragonball. There is NO disputing these.
Ex: "Saibamen have 1,200 each"
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
1,000,000
|
Guesstimate
|
These levels are figured based on Stated and Scouter
levels as well as on a who can beat who basis. These are the only
disputable levels, but I have built these so they tie closely to
Manga, Scouter, and Stated levels.
Ex: Form 1 Furiza and Vegeta are dead even, so their levels are the
same.

Quest
for the Dragonballs |
|
Goku: 10
Goku Ozouru: 100 |
A little note about
Dragonball powerlevels: Powerlevels from the Dragonball series were
written down in the Daizenshyus well after the manga was completed. In
other words, some of these levels might not make total sense in relation
to DBZ powerlevels. |

Bardock
Special |
|
Bardock: 8,000
Toma: 6,000
Ozouru Bardock: 80,000
Ozouru Toma: 60,000
Chibi Vegeta: 5,000
Bardock (on Planet Meet): Just under 10,000
Kakarotto as a baby: 2
Dodoria's Henchmen on Planet Meat: < 8,000
Dodoria: Anywhere from 10,000 to 21,000
Frieza: 530,000 |
Since Bardock's level
is just under 10,000 before visiting planet Meet, its probably around
8,000 at the beginning. This, in turn, means Toma is weaker than Bardock
since he was unable to kill Bardock's attacker. A Saiya-jin in Ozouru form
is 10x stronger than a Saiya-jin in normal form which gives us Ozouru
Bardock and Ozouru Toma.
Chibi Vegeta is probably around 5,000 since he easily defeats 10 Saibamen,
which have PLs of 1,200 each. Bardock easily defeat's Dodoria's men, but
gets his butt kicked by Dodoria. Furiza probably has the same level here
as in the Namek saga. |
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
Trunks
Special |
Android 17: 20,000,000
Android 18: 20,000,000
Super Saiya-jin Gohan: 25,000,000
Super Saiya-jin Trunks: 17,000,000 |
Here, the Android's
power levels are based on the fact that Trunks states that the Androids
from this timeline are much weaker than the ones he encounters in the main
timeline. Since Gohan can take on one of them, but falters when fighting
both of them, Gohan probably has around 25,000,000.
Trunks' level is based on the level he has when arriving on Earth to fight
Furiza bot. |

Raditz
Vs. Farmer |
|
Raditz:
1,200
Farmer with Shotgun: 5 |
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
Raditz
Vs. Goku and Piccolo |
|
Raditz: 1,200
Piccolo (with weighted clothing) : 322
Piccolo (without weighted clothing) : 408
Piccolo's Makankosappo (1st Try) : 1,330
Piccolo's Makankosappo (2nd Try) : 1,440
Goku (with weighted clothing) : 334
Goku (without weighted clothing) : 416
Goku (with Kamehameha) : 924
Gohan: 1 to 1,307
(power changes w/ emotions) |
|

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
After
the Battle |
|
Kame-sennin: 139
Kame-sennin's Turtle: 0.001
Krillen: 206
Tenshinhan: 250
Yamcha: 177
Piccolo: 329 |
These levels pretty
much speak for themselves. They come soon after the battle with Raditz
where Bulma uses Raditz's scouter to locate Tenshinhan, Chaozu, and Yamcha
(this part was cut from the American version of DBZ) |
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
Z
Fighters Vs. Saibamen and Nappa |
|
Saibamen:
1,200
Yamcha: 1,480
Chaozu: 610
Tenshinhan: 1,830
Krillen (pre-battle):
1,083
Krillen (max): 1,770
Piccolo
(pre-battle): 1,220
Piccolo (max): 3,500
Gohan
(pre-battle): 981
Gohan's Masenko:
2,800 |
Notice that the
pre-battle and in battle powerlevels are quite different. Also note that
the in battle levels are the maximum levels the fighters obtain during the
course of the battle (i.e. while performing a special technique) and may
not reflect their constant level throughout the battle. |
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
Goku
Vs. Vegeta and Nappa |
|
Goku: 5,000
Goku Powered Up: 8,000
Goku Kaioken x1: 12,000
Goku Kaioken x2: 16,000
Goku Kaioken x3: 24,000
Goku Kaioken x4: 32,000
Nappa: 4,000
Vegeta: 18,000
Ozouru Vegeta: 180,000
Ozouru Gohan: between 9,810
and 28,000 |
As stated in the
manga and Japanese series, Kaioken x2 and up multiplies your maximum level
by that respective amount, hence 8,000 x 4 = 32,000. Also stated, Kaioken
x1 gives you a "great increase in speed, and a slight increase in
power." Hence, I assumed Kaioken 1x gives you 1.5 times your normal
maximum level.
A saiyan's power increases 10 times in the Ozouru state, hence Vegeta's
18,000 ups to 180,000 in his ozouru form. |
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
Gohan
and Krillen Vs. Frieza's Thugs |
|
Gohan: 1,500
Krillen: 1,500
Frieza's Men: < 500 |
At this point, Frieza's
thugs have an extremely low level. This is evident because Gohan and
Krillen dispatch them in one hit apiece! 0_o |
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
Vegeta
Vs. Kui |
|
Vegeta: 24,000
Kui: 19,000 |
Vegeta easily fries
Kui here. Coupled with the fact that Zarbon and Dodoria state that Kui was
higher than Vegeta before he left for Earth and Vegeta's current level of
24,000, I can confidently say Kui's powerlevel is close to (but over)
18,000. |
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
Dodoria
& Zarbon Vs. Namek Fighters |
|
Zarbon:
23,000
Dodoria: 21,000
Namek Fighters: 1,000
- 3,000 |
Not much going on
here either. Both Zarbon and Dodoria vaporize the Namekian fighters. |
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
Vegeta
Vs. Dodoria |
|
Vegeta: 24,000
Dodoria: 21,000 |
Vegeta turns the lard
ass into pink marshmallows. 'Nuff said. I would also like to note that I
don't think Vegeta's level changes after the fight with Kui. While many
like to quote the line that "A Saiya-jin gains power after every
battle", I feel this only applies to battles in which the Saiya-jin
takes damage, or expend a great deal of energy. |
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
Vegeta
Vs. Zarbon (1st time) |
|
Vegeta: 24,000
Zarbon: 23,000
Zarbon Monster: 33,000 |
Vegeta is only
marginally stronger than Zarbon in his first form, however Zarbon is quite
a bit stronger than Vegeta after his transformation. He really roughs up
Vegeta good. |
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
Vegeta
Vs. Zarbon (2nd time) |
|
Vegeta:
35,000
Zarbon: 23,000
Zarbon Monster: 33,000 |
After spending some
time in the healing tube, Vegeta's power level goes up quite a bit, as do
all Sayians when they come close to death. |
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
Vegeta,
Gohan & Krillen Vs. Ginyu Force |
|
Krillen: "over
10,000"
Gohan: "over 10,000"
Gohan's Masenko: "above 20,000"
Vegeta: 20,000
Vegeta: "almost 30,000"
Gerudo: 10,000
Rikum: 40,000 |
Well, not much to
explain here either. Gerudo is fried by Vegeta, and Rikum pounds Gohan,
Vegeta and Krillen. The manga lists Vegeta as 20,000 while powering up to
fight Rikum, when earlier his max level was 24,000. Either Vegeta is worn
out here, or he just figures there is no way to beat Rikum. It also seems
the series tried to make more sense of this this by giving him a level of
"almost 30,000." |
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
Goku
Vs. Ginyu Force |
|
Goku (Scouter): 5,000
Goku vs Jisu and Burter: bursts of 60,000
Goku vs Ginyu: max power of 180,000
Jisu: 50,000
Burter: 45,000
Rikum: 40,000
Ginyu: 120,000 |
Not much explaining
to do here. Goku kicks the Ginyu force's ass, and rightly so. |
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
Goku
in Ginyu's Body |
|
Ginyu in Goku's
Body: 23,000
Jisu: 50,000
Vegeta: 60,000
Krillen: 16,500
Gohan: 17,000 |
Vegeta, again after
coming close to death, sees quite a power increase and is now able to fry
Jisu and take on Ginyu in Goku's Body. |
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
Nail
Vs. Frieza |
|
Nail: 42,000
Frieza (form 1): 530,000 |
Even though Nail is
the strongest Namek fighter, he doesn't even put a scratch on Frieza. |
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
Vegeta
Vs. Frieza (1st Time) |
|
Vegeta:
120,000
Furiza (form 1): 530,000
Furiza (form 2): 1,000,000 |
Now, I realize that
this is a high jump for Vegeta, but its actually makes sense. After a
grasping hands with Frieza, Vegeta is severely winded. On the other hand,
Frieza acts as if nothing happened. |
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
Piccolo
Vs. Frieza |
|
Piccolo (merged
with Nail): 800,000
Furiza (form 2): 1,000,000
Furiza (form 3): 2,500,000 |
Although Piccolo's
level is lower than Frieza, he is an extremely intelligent and skilled
fighter. Piccolo is able to read Frieza's attacks. This causes Frieza to
become flustered about not being able to easily beat Piccolo like he
should, forcing his transformation. Also, Frieza is only using a fraction
of his full power, as he does when fighting Goku. |
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
Vegeta
Vs. Frieza (2nd Time) |
|
Vegeta:
300,000
Furiza (form 4 - 33.33%): 4,000,000 |
At this point, Vegeta
is a little off his rocker. He thinks that he is now a Super Saiya-jin.
Although he may have had the potential for going Super Saiya-jin, he
lacked a motivating factor. While Vegeta felt entitled to becoming a Super
Saiya-jin, he did not experience any true anger as Goku did when Frieza
killed Krillen. Also, Frieza is only using a fraction of his full power,
as he did when battling Piccolo and non-Super Saiya-jin Goku. |
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
Goku
Vs. Frieza |
|
Furiza (form 4 -
33.33%): 4,000,000
Furiza (form 4 - 50%): 6,000,000
Furiza (form 4 - 70%): 8,400,000
Furiza (form 4 - 100%): 12,000,000
Goku's Base Level: 300,000
Goku Kaioken x10: 3,000,000
Goku Kaioken x20: 6,000,000
Super Saiya-jin Goku: 15,000,000
| Frieza's Levels as he Fights Goku: |
| Furiza |
Goku |
| 33% |
Kaioken x10 |
| 33% (short time), 50%, and 70% |
Kaioken x20 |
| 70% and 100% |
Super Saiya-jin Goku |
|
As you dubbies have
no doubt heard "Frieza was using 1% of his power while fighting
Goku." This is more evidence to prove my theory that English
powerlevels mean crap.
I have tried many different ways to match up the different levels of Frieza
and Goku's power. I hope he chart on the right helps this problem.
Please note: Goku never fights Frieza using his base level of 300,000.
Also, the manga never says anything about going SSJ causing one's
powerlevel to multiply by 50. In fact, it is stated during the battle with
Android 19 that math cannot be used to calculate a SSJ's powerlevel. |
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
Trunks
vs King Cold and Furiza Bot |
|
King Cold: 13,000,000
Frieza Bot: 12,500,000
Trunks (Suppressed): 5
Super Saiya-jin Trunks: 17,000,000
Super Saiya-jin Goku: 20,000,000 |
Frieza probably
experienced a slight powerlevel boost with some of the electronic parts
that now make up his body.
Being his father, and being much older, King Cold is probably slightly
stronger despite the fact that he appears to be in his second form. Also,
Tenshinhan senses a ki "even greater than Frieza's" traveling
alongside Frieza. |
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
ALL
LEVELS AFTER THIS POINT ARE A GUESS! |
|
In the mangas, Japanese series, and
Daizenshyus, Toriyama NEVER lists any levels after this point, as
he felt they limited his ability to be flexible. If you go to another site
claiming to have official levels after this point, they are more than
likely mistaken. I can't really blame those who use the "Dragonball
Guide Book" published in 1996, which doesn't match the series or
manga. |
