I honestly wouldn't want that. 7 Shadow Dragons is enough for me. But if idea is executed well, who knows.

The Namek Dragon Balls are not over used compare to the ones on Earth, so I don't think the idea would happen.

I assume even if they existed they must have disappeared after guru died. What was kami even thinking creating something like that.

Shenlong had granted at least 9 wishes (11 including BOG and ROF) up till the point in GT in which the dragons spawned, while Porunga granted at least 13 wishes at the same point in GT.

The Namekian balls are also much larger than the Earth balls, though, so it's possible that it would take longer for them to overfill with negative energy.

That would depend on if the size of the orbs is even relative to "filling" them up.

It could also be possible that the amount of negative energy Porunga creates from his wishes could be increased proportionately to the size of the orbs as well, meaning both sets of DBs would fill at roughly the same rate (depending on the types of wishes made).

That's why I said "possible."

And I kinda like the idea that Kami making his Dragon Balls small was a design flaw he was unaware of.

DB Heroes explores "what if" scenarios of existing content. It doesn't actually create new characters.

It already has 18 brand new characters.

But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.
