The following skills and techniques appeared in Dragon Ball, either in Akira Toriyama's original manga series or exclusive to Toei Animation's animated adaptation of it. They are organized by classification type, and further into sub-classifications of its parent classification.[1]

Physical Martial Arts Techniques

"Physical Martial Arts Techniques" (体術技; taijutsu-waza) are essential in the world of Dragon Ball, as many battles are won with the use of these various physical techniques. In particular, during Goku's boyhood when he still couldn't manipulate ki, he thought up various physical martial arts techniques on his own. These aren't just limited to Goku; even when battles ended up being ultimately settled through ki manipulation techniques, most of the basic fighting was done through the use of physical martial arts techniques.

This classification of techniques is further divided into the following eight sub-classifications: basic, combination, linking, form/intent, afterimage, secretion, detachment, and merging.

Basic

Ki Manipulation Techniques

"Ki Manipulation Techniques" (気功技; kikō-waza)

Unique Techniques
