"Gohan's Hidden Powers" is the third episode of FUNimation's original English dub of the Dragon Ball Z television series, first aired the weekend of 27 September 1996 on American television as distributed in syndication to local networks by Saban. This episode's production features the Vancouver-based voice cast from Ocean Studios and a replacement musical score under the responsibility of Shuki Levy.
This episode was later replaced in FUNimation's home video releases by a redub first produced in 2005 (initially for the "Ultimate Uncut Edition" home video line) featuring the Texas-based voice cast and a new replacement musical score by Nathan Johnson. This version properly covers and separates episodes 4 and 5 (titled "Piccolo's Plan" and "Gohan's Rage" in the revised English dub), and serves as the basis for all re-releases moving forward.

Availability
"Gohan's Hidden Powers" was first released on home video in 1997[1] as part of the "Dragon Ball Z: Arrival" VHS (either $14.98 or $19.98; both prices are cited by Pioneer), a special compilation of the first four edited, English-dubbed episodes from the 1996-1998 production run. This compilation included one set of opening and ending themes surrounding the content of the four episodes, which, other than fade outs and ins from the non-existent commercial breaks, ran as a sort of "feature-length" presentation. Two editions of the VHS were released: an "Action" version and a "Youth" version. These two versions featured different pieces of cover artwork, and while fan commentary is sparse, there appear to be no content differences between the two.[2]
A DVD version of "Arrival" was released in April 1999 (either $24.98 or $29.98; both prices are cited by Pioneer), maintaining the "feature-length" presentation style and revised dialog edits.
The "Dragon Ball Z: Rock the Dragon DVD Box Set Collector's Edition" set from FUNimation, released in August 2013 spanning nine DVDs,[3] collected the entire 53-episode run of the syndication broadcast, plus broadcast versions of the first three films. This release restores first four episodes to their individual versions, and likewise restores original line recordings.
