I don't think there's a reason to assume he's wrong at all. His scouter only showed malfuction at powers that far outstripped his calculations.

I don't think this implies the earthlings are rivaling the Base Saiyans though, only that they're on the same realm. This makes some sense when you remember that the Saiyans weren't considered gods until they transformed.

This also fits well with the idea of SSJ being a 10x boost post Freeza.

I think that with the series' turn into a more slice of life type of manga/anime, the humans were certainly put on the base Saiyans' level, so that it's only when they power up or exert themselves with more that their differences show up. Remember that we went from careless Goku charging into Bulma and taking a bullet to his head to Gohan dodging bullets or catching them with his hands in the Buu saga. To make the situation less predictable, Goku's range in his base state is now bigger, thanks to SSG changing its scale in proportion to the human saiyans. From this point on, I will tackle their differences using small amounts, expressing them in 1.024, 1.25, 1.28, 1.6 and 2 times the starting unit, along with a few multipliers customized for consistency. It means that I will start with the number 1.

Why do you guys think Gero thought that the Earthlings would be a good source of energy? I think they'd at least have to be comparable to the Base Saiyans.
That was probably just because he didn't know about Super Saiyan before #19 vs. Goku happened. I don't think the humans (or at least, not Krillin/Tenshinhan and to a lesser extent Yamcha) were that far behind the base Saiyans at the start of the Android Saga; it was only when the Saiyans continuously powered up over the Android/Cell saga that they would've been left behind by even the base Saiyans. So the humans should at least be over the 1 million mark.

Absorbing the power of somebody in the low single-digit millions would be GREAT source of energy when you're expecting a Goku in the higher single-digit millions who can power up 3-4x in short bursts with Kaio-ken. Less so when you find out that he can actually get a consistent 50x boost, of course!

Gero still saw the earthlings as a considerable fount of energy against Super Saiyan Vegeta though.

Correction: Gero saw the all earthlings plus Gohan and Piccolo as a considerable fount of energy against Super Saiyan Vegeta. Besides, whatever means Gero uses to measure ki seems to be pretty imprecise. He thought Super Saiyan Vegeta would be no match for #19 and look how that turned out.

going by the Daizenshuus' power levels.
Trunks Arc Goku base should be at 5,000,000, so far i did read so many lists and most of them put Goku at 3,1-3,8 Millions.
after the Yardrats healed Goku, he probably got a Zenkai, he used Kaioken X10 and X20 and first time non-mastered Super Saiya-Jin and battle Freeza who's 50/100 power is 60,000,000. and he stayed there for nearly two years practicing Super Saiya-Jin and Shunkan Ido.

I find doubtful Kuririn and Tenshinhan (Yamcha had already left by that time) would even be included on the statement if they're non factors. Not to mention Yamcha by himself was considered great energy as well.

#20 thought Vegeta was no match to #19 because Vegeta didn't release all of his Ki yet. There is a difference between someone's Ki when they're fighting and when they're standing. Not to mention it's possible that Vegeta is so strong that surpassed the limitations of Gero's scouter. Gero does say something that implies it when Goku is fighting 19, after all.

Honestly, if Gero can tell...
SSJ Goku >>> Base Goku
Suppressed Piccolo > Gohan/Earthlings
Post Kamehameha #19 > Post Kamehameha Goku and
SSJ Goku >> Post Kamehameha Goku

Then why ignore his statements because of two mistakes that he later corrected?

Something i've noticed debating on another forum and i'd like to share here regard Mecha Freeza's power...

Chapter: 330 (DBZ 136), P13.4
Freeza: “We can definitely defeat him if we go at him together, Papa. And I’ve powered up too, so I think I can probably go alone.”


So, Freeza says he has powered up but isn't sure if he can take Goku alone. Most of us think it's because Freeza has gotten barely any stronger than Goku on Namek if at all. However...
Chapter: 264 (DBZ 70), P6.5
Freeza: “It seems that the Saiyans really do hide bottomless battle power…It increases greatly the more they battle…


Freeza does acknowledge the Saiyans have bottomless power that increases after battles, and Goku fought a hell of a battle against Freeza. It's natural that he would expect Goku to have gotten stronger.

So probably the power chains goes like this:
Cyborg Freeza >= SSJ Goku (Post Namek) >/>> SSJ Goku (Namek)

Thoughts?

I think Freeza may not be the most reliable judge when it comes to that sort of thing, since he spent most of his fight with Super Saiyan Goku in outright denial that he'd even been surpassed in the first place.

Besides, realistically Goku could have only increased his own power so much between Namek and Earth, given that most of his time was dedicated to learning to teleport and to control the Super Saiyan transformation. It wouldn't make much sense for him to double or triple his power or anything drastic like that until he actually underwent more intense, focused training.

But still... if folks want to take that bit from Freeza as reason to increase both Goku and Freeza post-Namek at least a little more than they otherwise would, then more power to 'em.

How strong was Yakon?

If Super Saiyan Goku had 3,000 Kili then would that mean that Base Goku only had 60 Kili? In which case if Yakon had 800 Kili then he'd be far above Base Goku.

But when they fought he couldn't even hit him. So is he actually below Base Goku or enormously above him and he just wasn't going all out when they fought?

Who's to say that Goku was at full power when he fought Yakon? The only reason he went Super Saiyan was to light up the room. Besides, it's highly unlikely that Toriyama was being all that serious when making up those numbers, especially when you consider this:
http://www.kanzenshuu.com/battle-power/manga/ wrote:Incidentally, the numbers given for Yakon and Goku, 800 and 3,000, are both commonly used in Japanese as a symbolic way of saying “an enormous amount”, similar to the way the number 40 is used throughout the Christian Bible. For instance, the 800 temples of Kyoto are proverbial, as are the 8 million gods of Shinto (8 million being 800 man in Japanese, that is 800×10,000), while in Buddhism the phrase “3,000 worlds” signifies all of creation.
So Toriyama's more or less just saying that Goku ad Yakon are really strong in roundabout way.

Well, either way, I tend to consider all of Bobbidi's goons to be roughly equivalent to the previous arc villains. Pui Pui being from a planet with 10Gs seems like an obvious callback to the Saiyan arc and Dabra is directly compared to Cell. Yakon is tough opponent for the base Saiyans, but he looks like a joke next to a Super Saiyan, kinda like Freeza, so I consider him around the 100 million mark. This is all very scientific, of course.

The situation is quite different though. Freeza was goings nuts because someone surpassed him, whereas he was already calm when he claimed he could take on Goku.

I think Goku got the bulk of his power up as he recovered from his battle on Namek. If sparring and fighting the Budokais can make him stronger, just imagine a life or death battle... Mastering Super Saiyan and Ki control are mentioned on SEG to yield good gains as well, and Goku's time on Yardrat focused around that.

Most people think Kili isn't linear with BPs. I personally think it is, but the 3,000 came out because Goku was suppressed. It wasn't until Goku used SSJ2 that Vegeta noticed Goku surpassed Gohan, and Dabra though he could take on the 3 Saiyans after seeing the Kili reading as well, even though he later struggled against one Supee Saiyan.

As Yakon, he is definitely around Base Goku, but i give him the edge. Gohan though he and Goku should fight together when he saw Goku couldn't use Super Saiyan. Compared to others, i think Yakon is somewhat stronger than SSJG2 Vegeta. Far stronger than Shin, but still on Base Saiyans' realm and far Below Super Saiyans.

If sparring and fighting the Budokais can make him stronger, just imagine a life or death battle... Mastering Super Saiyan and Ki control are mentioned on SEG to yield good gains as well, and Goku's time on Yardrat focused around that.
Yeah, that's true. You could easily grant him a moderate power boost just as a result of the fight against Freeza itself, combined with becoming a Super Saiyan. It's not impossible.

But the story doesn't present him as hugely more powerful yet, so I don't think there's any need for Goku to be several-fold stronger already, or anything extreme like that. Especially since nowadays we kind of have an upper limit on Goku's power for the Cell and Boo arcs. So numbers-wise I'd be very surprised if either Goku or Trunks were already over the 200 million mark at this early point.

Curious as to what you are referring to here.

The little revelation from Battle of Gods and Super, telling us that base Goku without Super Saiyan still doesn't quite measure up to Freeza. Considering that's ~5 years after Majin Boo, it means Goku can only get so much stronger overall in each arc to still be noticeably under 120 million in base by that point. Which is plenty possible as long as you don't take certain things overly literally or care excessively about "gaps" and what have you. I manage it just fine.

I mean as Super Saiyans in the Trunks arc. Because of what I explained above, there can't be too many huge power jumps all over the place because there's a sort of upper limit for Goku's power growth up to the end of Z.

What about things like: Vegeta being confident to win the tournament with the no SSJ rule even with people like 18 and Piccolo that were stronger than him? And Dabura thinking Piccolo energy is not worthwhile compared to the Base Saiyans?

What limit? Goku strenght 10 years after Boo still a mystery (taking Super into account or not).

Vegeta's really only bragging about being the strongest Saiyan when the "No Super Saiyan" rule is introduced, so Piccolo and #18 aren't really relevant. Besides, Vegeta's an overconfident braggart in general. Why take his boasting at face value?

In regards to Bobbidi and Dabra, the heroes were explicitly suppressing their ki in order to hide. Dabra and Bobbidi were able to sense their latent power via some magical foresight ability. Moreover, whatever means that they use to measure the Saiyans' power isn't precise in the slightest since they seemed to think that Pui-Pui would be enough to handle all four of them, and look how that turned out.

I'm pretty sure Kaboom was just referring to the end of the Boo arc and not the epilogue when talking about the end of Z.
