Who is Goku's archnemesis?

Judging by the way he treats them, his family and friends.

I will say though, that I don't believe Goku has an archnemesis, since the villains always die anyways and never comes back.

I don't think Goku has one real archenemy like a superhero or anything,

I agree with this.

Many of Goku's enemies either had something good happen to them or they end up on the sidelines being inactive.

If Pilaf had made it into Z...

I'd argue that Goku is Pilaf's arch nimesis, but Pilaf isn't necessarily Goku's...

*Ponders Pilaf in SPACE! as Namek Saga filler*

Goku is the sole arch-nemesis of various villains, but he himself doesn't have a sole arch-nemesis.

Goku doesn't have any continuous enemies like other comic characters like Batman or Superman do with Lex Luthor or Joker. For example, Freeza doesn't come back over and over again because he gets killed, and that's it. But if I were to give him one, I'd place my bets on Freeza, and it's not only for the Super Saiyan thing. Freeza's involvment in the Saiyan Empire lead to Goku being sent to Earth and later avenging the death and suffering of his own people (and the Namekians).

I would only say Vegeta because I like to imagine him as Goku's enemy even though he's more of a rival. Don't get me wrong -- it's outright awesome when Vegeta pops out of nowhere to come to one of the Z warriors' rescue. However, the fights between Goku and Vegeta are, in my opinion, the most entertaining and badass moments of the series.

Dr. Gero would be the closest to an archnemesis Goku has had, as some members have said.
If you include DBGT, it becomes even more evident.
