The ultimate form which surpasses Super Saiyan 3. After Goku regrows his tail and becomes a Golden Great Ape, he is able to regain control thanks to a speech from Pan, and turns into a Super Saiyan 4. Because of its red fur and long black hair, this form is quite different than the Super Saiyan forms before it. Vegeta is also able to become a Super Saiyan 4 by way of Bulma's [[Super Bruits Wave Generator]].<ref | The ultimate form which surpasses Super Saiyan 3.

The following transformations are achieved, seen, and/or referenced Dragon Ball, either in Akira Toriyama's original manga series, Toei Animation's animated adaptation, within video games produced by Bandai Namco, etc.
Saiyan Transformations
Series Transformations
 |
Great Ape (大猿)
This enormous ape form is triggered by basking in the light of a full moon. By transforming into a Great Ape, one's own battle power will rise sharply by ten-fold. Only when a Saiyan's eyes absorb the sunlight bouncing off of the moon (a special light known as Bruits Waves) will their tail react and cause the transformation. This transformation only occurs when the Bruits Waves being absorbed exceed 17,000,000 Zeno, which is only possible during a full moon.[1] |
 |
Super Saiyan (超サイヤ人)
An ultimate Saiyan warrior who has exceeded Saiyan limitations. Originally, the existence of this legendary being was held in doubt amongst even the Saiyans. In reality, any Saiyan who has a high battle power beyond a certain level can become a Super Saiyan. There are several crucial elements to becoming a Super Saiyan; one must have a gentle heart, be exposed to an extreme sense of danger, be filled with a strong anger, be tormented with sorrow, and feel as if the fate of the Saiyan race itself is at risk. A Super Saiyan is embued with a golden aura and hair (which will stand on end), the sharp eyes of a hawk, and emerald green pupils. In addition to the outward change in appearance, a 50-times increase in the Saiyan's ordinary battle power is proof of the legendary strongest warrior's existence.[2] |
Super Saiyan Grade II (超サイヤ人第２段階) User: Son Goku, Trunks, Vegeta Debut: Dragon Ball Chapter 377 / Dragon Ball Z Episode 155 By sending ki to focus all the nerves in his body, a Saiyan can swell his muscles in order to power up. This form experiences an exceptional increase in power and speed compared to normal Super Saiyans.[3]
Super Saiyan Grade III (超サイヤ人第３段階) User: Son Goku, Trunks Debut: Dragon Ball Chapter 386 / Dragon Ball Z Episode 162 The user's muscles swell out to the maximum, enabling him to draw out tremendous power. However, it diminishes his speed as his movement grows dull from the great strain placed upon his body.[3]
 |
Super Saiyan 2 (超サイヤ人２)
A form which possesses a power exceeding that of a Super Saiyan's. Though Gohan achieves this form naturally in an explosion of anger after witnessing Cell's cruel nature, Goku and Vegeta master it through relentless training.[3] |
 |
Super Saiyan 3 (超サイヤ人３)
The form which draws out a Saiyan's maximum inner power. However, the downside is that it exhausts massive energy, and outside of the Afterlife, the transformation cannot be maintained for any longer than just a little while.[3] |
Movie Original Transformations
 |
Pseudo Super Saiyan (擬似超サイヤ人)
This form imitates the same full-body aura as that of a Super Saiyan, but it does not have completely golden hair. The Saiyan's eyes become fully white, as if in this state he were unconscious.[4] |
 |
Legendary Super Saiyan (伝説の超サイヤ人)
brief description |
 |
Super Saiyan God (超サイヤ人ゴッド)
This form requires that six Saiyans with righteous hearts be present. To give birth to a Super Saiyan God, five of the righteous Saiyans must pour their spirits[5] into the sixth Saiyan. This power-up far exceeds the limitations of a Super Saiyan 3, and the user's hair turns red and his body becomes slimmer.[3] |
 |
Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan / Super Saiyan Blue (超サイヤ人ゴッド超サイヤ人 / 超サイヤ人ブルー)
The level of Super Saiyan imbued with the power of Super Saiyan God.[6] This form can be attained on one's own, without the need of help from another Saiyan.[7] Its strength surpasses that of Super Saiyan God.[8] Super Saiyan Blue allows its user great strength, a serene heart, and extreme energy control.[9] Super Saiyan Blue's weakness is that its full power lasts only for a short while, but when the user keeps the energy within himself, this weakness can be overcome.[10] |
Dragon Ball GT Original Transformations
 |
Golden Great Ape (黄金大猿)
brief description[11] |
 |
Super Saiyan 4 (超サイヤ人４)
The ultimate form which surpasses Super Saiyan 3. After Goku regrows his tail and becomes a Golden Great Ape, he is able to regain control thanks to a speech from Pan, and turns into a Super Saiyan 4. Because of its red fur and long black hair, this form is quite different than the Super Saiyan forms before it. Vegeta is also able to become a Super Saiyan 4 by way of Bulma's Super Bruits Wave Generator.[3] |
 |

Other Transformations
|
Transformation Ability (変身能力)
The potential to purposefully transform oneself. For transformation-type aliens, their ability and number of transformations differ from species-to-species. In Zarbon's case, he can transform only once; from his usual beautiful form to an unimaginably unattractive monster with a power-up. For Freeza, he can transform up to a fourth form, and his final form holds an unexpected power for such a petite figure. Kuriza transforms to look like Freeza's final form with a pointed head.[13] |
Great Fourth Transformation (大４変身) User: Coola Debut: Dragon Ball Z Movie 5 Since Coola is usually in the same state as Freeza after his third transformation, this transformation is the fourth in that line. When transformed, his eyes become red, and four angular protrusions appear on his head. His skin becomes armor-like in appearance, and something like a protective mask fits over his mouth. His body also becomes gigantic, and his offensive and defensive powers seem to increase.[14]
Golden Form (---) User: Freeza Debut: Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection 'F' brief description
|
Form Transformation (形態変化)
An ability unique to the artificial lifeform Cell, which was manufactured by Dr. Gero's computer. Every form change Cell undergoes results in a power-up. By absorbing the artificial human No. 17, Cell changes into his second form, and absorbing No. 18 results in his completed form. Though his first form appears quite insect-like, Cell's second and third forms have a humanoid appearance due to No. 17 and 18's influence. In his completed form, Cell becomes the perfect warrior in every aspect, such as speed and strength.[15] |
