I like the idea of adding Adult Gotenks, but I don´t understand one thing

Why they are lazy with the designs of new absorptions (or whatever) and change the Adult Gotenks´ clothes ?

Maybe Super #17 can brainwash other Artificial Humans (including Cell), like #17 briefly brainwashed #18 in GT, and then commands them to merge with him like the two #17s did, but instead of merging with them, he absorbs 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.

I guess no one else likes my "17 eating Cell" theory. Sad day.

Gokule is a better name...and use actually used in the games. :?
That's just Super 17 after absorbing energy, not a whole body... :problem:

Why would a Japanese game use an English name? Hercule isn't the man's name. It's Mr. Satan.

Gotan is actually used in the games too, the Japanese games. This game is Japanese.

Argue that with the card and the developers, because they imply the opposite, and I agree with 'em. Especially since it's the same physical result (buffing up permenently, ripping of clothes, etc) as when he absorbs Cell, only without Cell's traits applied to him.

That's your opinion. The developers haven't said anything about those exclusive forms.
It seems they just let Yamamuro draw the designs he wants, and when they think one looks great, they add it as a secret exclusive character and name it.
Also, remember that Yamamuro was the designer for GT, he drew that buff Super 17 design for GT. He just reused the design for Heroes.

Nakatsuru Katsuyoshi is the one officially credited as the character designer for Dragon Ball GT. Yamamuro did do the character designs for the tenth anniversary film, though.

It's just as valid as your "this form isn't actually a form and is really just a game character based on a minor physical trait that happens for a very brief amount of time as part of a technique" theory.

I think Yamamuro worked on more GT episodes than Nakatsuru.
Nakatsuru designed the Super Saiyan 4, but I don't know if it was confirmed who designed Super 17?! (as well as Baby, the Shadow Dragons, and all the characters in the Black Star Dragon Ball Saga). Baby's design was merged with that of Janemba, and it's confirmed that Janemba was designed by Yamamuro.

Nakatsuru is the only character designer for GT. All the characters except for the ones done by Toriyama were designed by Nakatsuru.

But it's not the same thing we saw in the series. Super #17 (AF Absorbed) is much bigger than Super #17 after absorbing energy, to the point that his clothes are ripped.

I have a theory on about why Gotenks doesn't have the standard Metamoran clothes: Maybe because Goten & Trunks use Fusion for years, Fusion has become their own technique now, instead of just a technique from the Metamorans. So, now they don't just get Metamoran clothes, but also a mix of Metamoran & their clothes.
