Ultimate DB Timeline

Post by caiojoorge » Wed Oct 25, 2017 5:35 pm

Ok guys.
I have been searching and walking through some topics to discover if someone has answered my questions from life. I have written a post a few weeks ago trying to discuss the Hakai-Kaiohshin bond, but it did not live too much. Again, I tried to talk to you guys, specialists in DB Universe about Frieza's golden transformation. Again, it did not receive so much attention.
Now, I want to go beyond.
I invoke you to help me build a consistent chart with all the Dragon Ball timelines with we know so far.
Please, say what's wrong, what's right, how can we make it better. I mean, I see this forum like an amount of people which is passionated by Dragon Ball. It should be the center of all the researchers. Let's make it!

Ah, so it's about time travel and alternate timelines... I didn't get that through the topic title, and forgive me if I didn't read the whole picture, because it was a bit small. This is the way that I usually represent the timelines:

Notice that you can avoid most of the plot holes and inconsistencies with this. Cell knows of Trunks having killed Freeza and King Cold before departing. The remote blueprints were taken from another time whose lab was destroyed along with Cell. Existing in the past is a condition for another future to exist. If Cell didn't exist in the past of the first two lines, then he created another where Trunks arrived as well, setting the condition for the 4th one to exist. I haven't tackled Super yet.

Mine just has to be zoomned haha
Yours is pretty good. Shows some things that are not so clear in mine. But, I didn't realize how you get to this two first timelines. I mean, you just guessed that trunks didn't come back in time?

Maybe you're talking about A Hero's Legacy, a television special, telling the GT story 100 years in the future.

Did Trunks ever get that holographic Charizard?

I didn't get what you said here. My guess is that he didn't appear in the past of the blue timeline around Freeza's arrival, so that the main cast wouldn't know what to look for, but he showed up when the androids were released and found their lab. The blue timeline Trunks went to kill Freeza and King Cold in the green one, but he returned to his future to die against the androids (I didn't include this in the scheme), and that's why he didn't show up in the green timeline around the androids' release. Due to that, the main cast still died, and Trunks departed later to grab the remote blueprints, so that he could destroy the androids in the green line, before Cell killed him. That should cover the first two instances.
