You can also power him up by different ways too, Online/Xenoverse 2 already gave an idea to it.
Because Toriyama outright said that Bardock was just a low class warrior who never made it to a mid-class. He was just powerful for his ranked, meaning he's maybe at best around the strength of Raditz. And what other way are you referring to, someone grabbing him before he dies like Xenoverse and Online?

Online/Xenoverse didn't give any ideas. That just randomly powered-up. If they're going to do that, why revived a foot-soldier? Get King Vegeta who was originally the strongest Saiyan in the universe.

And yet, even rusty Gohan from the Buu Saga could stomped Future Gohan despite all his training and got stomped by 17 by himself in the manga. Future Gohan is pathetic in many ways.

Goku barely took a backseat in the Buu saga, at best he took a leisurely stroll round back while everyone else cried for him to come back.

Yeah, of course. If they want to bring him back without using Shenlong, they can easily come up with something like a wormhole in Xenoverse or Mira appearing and saving him in Online.

Agree. If not Bardock, then King Vegeta is the next one in the line that must receive some attention.

Future Gohan literally has the exact same personality as our Gohan. He didn't like training any more than our Gohan, he just had to.

Hero R, I don't think he was pathetic at all. He had pretty much no guidance from anyone on how to train, and most likely didn't train in the 3 year gap either. Plus he didn't know the HTC. No wonder why he wasn't that strong.

I made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.

Future gohan was very skilled for a guy who had to train alone all these years with no one to guide him whatsoever..
Even nameless namekian piccolo couldn't beat 17 granted he was a bit stronger than his future self, and piccolo was many times stronger than a SS..

Why Bardock of all Saiyans? He's literally a no one, especially Toriyama's version of the character whose only claimed to fame is Freeza remembering him before offing him.

The present androids are also much stronger than Future 17 and Gohan had 13 years. Going by the manga, Gohan was only as strong as Namek Saga Goku before he died. That is really pathetic given the timeframe.

Because Bardock was the one that was chosen in Dragon Ball Online. But I'm pretty sure that can be done wonderful things with King Vegeta and Tarble as well.

Given how weak he was, him getting Super Saiyan Rage won't help him that much.

I believed it was in the manga when they were talking about how powerful Trunks was when he killed Freeza. The anime made both Freeza and Trunks stronger, while Trunks wasn't that much stronger than Super Saiyan Goku on Namek. Then in the Trunks Special manga chapter, Future Bulma said that Trunks was only as powerful as Gohan before he died.

Eh, I'm skeptical. Bulma wouldn't really know how strong Trunks or Gohan is and she say's they're about the same power instead of outright saying they are the same power level. I think that gives Future Gohan enough lee way to be anywhere from ssj Goku when he comes back to earth to ssj Vegeta against the androids. I think that's respectable considering he didn't have proper training methods or someone to properly train with.

That's all well and good but what is it about goku getting back in shape?
He has been training all the time :eh:

Are they trying to use this excuse to fix the power scaling of SS goku vs SS gohan, that goku was out of shape..

If he presses the button, does he summo both Omni-King's at once?

Also, seems like Whis and Beerus might already know about the consequences of losing.
When Super apparently shoves Goku down our throats:
