Hints & Tips

Attack boost
First add a Senzu Bean with Sayian Heritage. Your attack will be boosted after the Senzu Bean is used. A normal bean takes up 3.

Power up
Just hold X, then press Away.

Easier combos
If you are preforming a combo that your having trouble with (for example, the Super Kamahamaha (K(2x's), Right + K, K, E), hold the D-pad and press the rest of the moves and it will insert in the arrows. For example, hold Right and press K(2x's), K(2x's), E.

Longer combo
If you happen to put in two capsules with a description that reads "attacks with oppressive force", the move will last longer and have more hits than normal.

Put in two capsules with the description that reads "attacks with oppressive force" to a character, then add other attack enhancing capsules to make a one move death killer. Note: It is better if used on saiyans.

Allow two player custom skill level on one memory card
When you are at the character selection screen in duel mode, have player one select a character first. Then, choose the custom skill setting. Then, take the memory card in slot one and move it to memory card slot two. Player two can now choose a custom skill setting without having two memory cards.

Getting Zenie
If you place second place under the novice level you will receive 5,000 Zenie. If you get first place, you will receive 10,000 Zenie. If you get second place on the adept level, you will receive 15,000 Zenie. If you get first you will receive 20,000 Zenie. If you get second in the advanced level you will receive 25,000 Zenie. If you get first, you will receive 30,000 Zenie.

Story mode replay
Once you have finished story mode once, you will notice that there are a few people missing, except for Gohan as a super hero and Hercule who you access in world championship mode. Go back to story mode and you will see what you have done instead of starting a new story. Some of the episodes will have "New" beside them. Go into those episodes to obtain new players and new player abilities, like a Super Saiyan for Vegeta.

Tournament wins
When you are in Tournaments, instead of trying to kill the CPU opponents, just lure them close to the edge of the ring. Then tap X + Down to move behind the foe, then use a strong move to knock them out the ring.

Use this trick for a quicker win in the world tournament level. You can preform this with any character in the game. When you first start, it shows them posing and getting ready to fight, when the word "Ready?" appears, start pressing Left(2x's) or Right(2x's) fast, depending on what side of screen you are on. Your foe will start moving backwards closer to the edge of the ring. When the word "Fight!" appears, use the P(2x's)K(2x's)E then move and they will go flying out of the ring. If you do not get the first punch, you are on your own.

If you are at the edge of the ring and your opponent is about to knock you off, do your character's grab technique. Every time you do a throw in tournament mode, it sends you and your foe straight back to the center of the ring.

The best way to take out a foe in tournament mode. is to do your P(4x's), E attack many times, until you knock them out. Another way to win is to get near the end of the ring, and when they get near you, press Down + X until you switch sides with them. You can then knock them out of the ring with a strong attack, like a kick combo.

When you are at the start of the match, press P(3x's), K. This will knock your foe into the air. Tap Forward(2x's) to fly up there, then press P to bash them down. If they do not fall out of the ring at first, bash them once again.

Select any character (for example, Goku). Now lure the opponent to the edge, get behind him, and try to knock him into the air. Before he falls, hit a Kamehameha and if you are in the right position, it will knock him out.

You can pick up a cheap win, play as Kid Gohan or Krillin. When you get matches with Recoome and other larger characters, most of their punches and kicks will not even hit you.

This trick will work for all characters. First, put on Viral Heart Disease and Vaccine. Then set the timer to 30 seconds and enter the tournament. As soon as the fight starts, shoot a Ki blast until your opponent reflects it back to knock you down. Hold Down and wait until the match is over. Repeat this to gain easy money.

Just make a custom character that has Gero's Perpetual Energy R&D, any technique that takes up just one slot, and either Rage!!! or Viral Heart Disease and Vaccine. Also, set the fight time in the options menu to 30. Just keep using this attack and you will beat the foe easily.

Keep on pressing Forward + R1 until your opponent is out of the ring.

Use Teen Gohan (suggested), Goku, or Cell. Use kick combos to get them to the end of the ring, then use a Kamehameha or a few kicks or punches and they will go out.

To win the advanced tournament easier, create a custom Vegeta with these capsules: Galick Gun(Cannon), Galick Gun(Cannon), Gero's Perpetual Energy R&D, Super Holy Water, and 1/3 Sensu Bean. In order for you to win, use the Gallick Gun continuously. You will seldom need to sidestep by pressing X and Up or Down swiftly to stay away from the corners of the ring. Using two Galick Gun (Cannons) Capsules strengthens Vegeta's Galick Gun (Cannon). The Super Holy Water raises your defense, the Gero's Perpetual Energy R&D keeps your energy at the max. The 1/3 Sensu Bean is just for safety. This trick will also work for any character who can use a beam.

The easiest way to win advanced tournament is like this: Go to change capsules, select a character, and put Viral Heart Disease and Vaccine in the slots. Then, go to options and change story mode and duel mode to very easy. Then set the timer to 30 seconds. When the battle starts, his health will start to lower and keep doing so until a certain point. By then, time should almost be up and you may win.

Taunts
You can taunt (press P + K + G + E) this will lower your opponent's Ki gauge by 1.

Easy way to turn Super Saiyan
Obtain the Super Saiyan ability, then press R1 + R2 to transform. This can be used for anyone's type of transformation. Note: This can also be used to do the King Kai Fist and Unlock Potential.

Shenron
In this game you can collect the seven Dragon Balls. In order to obtain them, you have to buy them at Mr. Popo's shop. However, they are rare. They cost 8000 Zenie each and will only appear in a "Recommended" or "Gambled" Capsule. After collecting all seven, go to the Caps List option in the "Edit Skills" menu. Then go along to the second to last list. If all seven Dragon Balls are present, press X and you will be asked if you wish to summon Shenron. Select "Yes" and you will have the option to "Breakthrough" three random characters. Breakthrough is a Capsule which will open every Death Move, Transformation, and Physical Move of the character in possession. However, it takes up seven ability slots and cannot be equipped in with anything else. After choosing your character, the Dragon Balls will disappear and you will have to collect them all over.

After you collect all seven Dragon Balls, Oolong will say "Show yourself Shenron". A dragon will appear and grant you a wish called "Breakthrough" for one character at a time. This capsule has all the moves for the chosen person. Support capsules will not work with it. It need's seven slots. After all characters have breakthroughs, the Dragon Balls can be collected but the Dragon will not appear.

If you do not like the random choice of three characters that Shenron powers-up, restart the PlayStation2. All your Dragon Balls will still be there when the game is unpaused. Summon Shenron again until you like the choice of the three random characters.

Get Dragon Balls faster
Go to the Skill Shop and go down to the "Recommended" section. It will tell you what item it is. If it is not a Dragon Ball, leave and re-enter the shop again. The Recommended item will have changed. Keep redoing this until you see a Dragon Ball in the Recommended section. Make sure you have enough money, as each Dragon Ball costs 8,000 Zenie.

Keep playing the tournament and reach the finals. Even if you do not win, you will receive money and access a person and a new tournament. After you obtain 130,000 or more Zenie, go buy capsules but only the two bottom ones. Do not gamble too often.

Go to the tournament and win plenty of Zenie. Then, go to Mr. Popo's shop and buy everything in the "Recommended" section. In time you will gain the maximum amount of every capsule (9) and force the CPU to give you nothing but Dragon Balls. This takes time, but you will get every breakthrough and stack every character's capsules up to 9, making them as strong as it can be.

After you finish story mode, go back to it. Go to Saiyan Sage episode 3, Saiyan Attack. You will play as Piccolo. You will first face five Saibaimen. Beat them. Next, you have to face Nappa. You will only have two thirds health though. Beat Nappa. Go back and do this again as many times as you like. Every time you beat Nappa the first time without losing, you will get a Dragon Ball capsule.

Advanced Tournament Capsule
Play in Adept mode and turn into number one. Go to Mr. Popo's shop. You will see a gray Capsule for 8000 Zenie. Ths is Advanced mode.

Frieza's Space Ship Capsule
Obtain 12,000 Zenie go to "Recommended" in Mr. Popo's shop. When you see Frieza's Space Ship. pay the 12,000 Zenie. This Capsule takes three spaces in Frieza's slot. When you die, Frieza's Space Ship appears and restores everything. It will also transform you into Cyber Frieza.

Play through the Namekian Saga under the hardest difficulty setting and defeat Frieza at all times without losing once. The Capsule at the end should be Frieza's Space Ship.

Gero's Perpetual Energy Capsule
To obtain unlimited energy, go to Mr. Popo's shop and go to the suggested section. Leave and go back until Gero's Perpetual Energy appears. Every character can use it, but no transformations are allowed.

The Legend Of Hercule (Mr. Satan) Capsule
First access Hercule and go to the Mr. Popo's shop. Buy the "Advanced Tournament" Capsule and the one that appears next is "The Legend Of Hercule". It is a new fighting mode, where you recreate the events that the public believed happened during the "Cell Games Saga".

When you select Legend Of Hercule, make sure you have a Senzu Bean and custom Hercule. When you get to fight Goku, your health will not replenish when you fight Gohan and Cell.

Red Capsule
When your on world championship mode, if you win you receive 10,000 Zenie and second place gets you 5,000 Zenie. This is useful because when you enter the shop and buy the Red Capsule, you will get some good moves like Super Saiyan Trunks, Kamahamaha for Krillen, and even Super Saiyan Level 2 for Gohan.

Get Dragon Balls cheaper
If you do not care what kind of capsule you receive, spend your zenie on the Gamble capsules. You may end up obtaining rare capsules for only 3000 zenie instead of buying them for different prices under "Recommended". You can also get Dragon Balls by gambling, and getting them 5000 zenie cheaper.

Keep and reuse the seven Dragon Balls
This trick needs three memory cards to work.

1. Save the original game on the memory card A, then save it again on memory card B or copy it from the PlayStation2 browser.

2. Create a new game and save it on memory card C.

3. Go to "Trade Skills" under "Edit Skills" with memory cards B and C and in the PlayStation2. Trade the Dragon Balls from memory card B to memory card C.

4. Remove memory card B and replace it with memory card A. Go to the "Skills List", find the Dragon Balls, and use them on the characte you wantr.

5. Return to "Trade Skills" and trade the Dragon Balls from the memory card C to memory card A.

6. Redo steps 1, 3, 4, and 5 until you have every breakthrough for every character.

Also you can use these steps, which only need two memory cards.

1. Get all Dragon Balls on memory card A, then save.

2. Save it also on memory card B.

3. Use the Dragon Balls on memory card A on a character.

4. Trade Dragon Balls from memory card B to memory card A.

5. Redo steps 3 and 4 until you have every attack for all the characters.

Also you can, use these steps with three memory cards.

1. On memory card A (the one that you want all the breakthroughs for), get all the Dragon Balls.

2. Make a new game on memory card B, then trade the Dragon Balls from A to B and save.

3. Copy the information from memory card B to a new memory card (C).

4. Trade the Dragon Balls from memory card C to memory card A. Then call up Shenron on memory card A and choose a breakthrough.

5. Redo steps 3 and 4 to receive every Capsule.

Adept Tournament Capsule
Play in Novice mode and turn into number one. Go to Mr. Popo's shop. You will see a gray Capsule for 8000 Zenie. This is Adept mode.

For you order to collect every Capsule and even the Dragonballs without playing in World Tournament Mode constantly to get the money for them, just keep on playing story mode after you have accessed evey chapter. You will continue to get capsules each time you play, and sometimes even a free Dragonball. In time, you will have the maximum of every capsule and force the CPU to give you Dragonballs. To make it more simple, locate a chapter like number 9 in the Namekian Saga (Raging Frieza) that gives you three Capsules each time you finish it. The only capsules you will ever have to buy in Mr. Popo's shop are the two World Tournament Capsules for Adept and Advanced, and The Legend of Hercule Capsule.

Burst Zone
When the fighters connect with an Energy Punch togethor, you enter Burst Zone. You will know when this is occuring by the speed at which both warriors are attacking and blocking. Rotate the Left Analog-stick as fast as you can. If you are the fastest, you will deliver a powerful knock-back attack on your opponent upon leaving the Burst Zone.

The easiest way to win in the Burst Zone is when you go into it, spin both the Left Analog-stick and Right Analog-stick as fast as you can. This has the same effect as pressing the directional buttons and command buttons all at the same time, but a lot easier to do.

Easy transformations
For easier transformations, go into the options screen. Select the controller option then move over to "Custom". Hold L1 and press Left or Right until you see P + K + G. You will now have L1 as a transformation button. Note: You can do the identical thing with taunts just press Left or Right or left until you locate P K G E.

To transform with any character easier, you can press L1 + X. Your character will instantly transform into a stronger character.

First select "Controller" at the options screen and press X. Then, press Right until you receive to "Custom". Then, hold L1 and press Left(2x's). P + K + G should be shown. Begin to play, then press L1 and you should transform into your next stage.

Transformations
You may have already noticed that your character will be knocked out of his Super Saiyan Transformation when his Ki gauge goes below 3. By knowing this, you can conclude several things in a battle. Note: Super Saiyan 2 Transformations also are knocked out at Ki gauge 3. Also, this has the same effect with Cell and Frieza's Forms.

Easier win
To easily beat an opponent, go to "Edit Skills" and give your character a Viral Heart Disease Capsule and a Vaccine Capsule. The Vaccine Capsule cancel's the effects of the Viral Heart Disease Capsule on your player, and only your foe will get their life drained.

Go into the options menu and set "Difficulty" to "Very Easy", "Com" to "Very Weak", equip the Vaccine, Viral Heart Disease, and a Senzu Bean, Set the time limit to 30 seconds.. When the match starts, dodge for the first fifteen seconds. The last fifteen seconds should take away your opponent's health. When the clock get's to zero, if you have not been knocked out of the ring, you will be declared the winner.

This trick will do the maximum amount of damage and need's a controller with an auto-fire feature and Gero's Perpetual Energy R&D. This can be with any character. Equip Gero's Perpetual Energy R&D, then go to practice. Knock the CPU down. While the CPU is down, set Circle to auto-fire for the Ki Blast Wave. It will do damage above 10,000 and combos above 100.

Fight through the story mode and/or the tournament mode until you can get the Senzu Bean, Viral Heart Disease, Vaccine, and Kamehameha skills. Equip all four skills on Goku, Gohan, or Krillin. When you now fight in a duel, allow your foe to knock your health down to zero. By this time, the Viral Heart Disease should have lowered his health down to half of the last bar. The Senzu Bean will replenish all of your health and energy. Finish off your foe with a four-punch combo and a Kamehameha.

When you are fighting in any match, press Guard until your foe attempts to throw a punch or kick. Then, as swiftly as possible, press Punch(3x's) then blast. Then, knock him or her down with a kick combo. When a foe is charging up their energy, use this time to back away and be ready for them to charge at you.

Go to the options screen and turn the difficulty down as low as it can go. Try to block as many punches as you can, let your foe come to you. Try to think as the Z-fighters would. Do the basic attacks Punch(3x's), Energy. It knocks the other fighter down so you can gather Ki, or go in the fighters face and kill them or simply knock them out of the ring.

Choose a small-sized character, like Krillin or Gohan. Equip him with Vaccine and Viral Heart Disease and set the tournament to last thirty seconds. When you go into the tournament with your custom character, the opponent's health will be going down. When the thirty seconds are up, you will win. This is a easy way to receive Great Sayiaman or money.

Access Great Saiyaman, and use Justice Punch then Justice Kick.

To receive an easy win with any character in tournament mode, equip him with Gero's Perpetual Energy R&D, Vaccine, Viral Heart Virus, a specialty move (like Galick Gun , Kamehameha, Destructive Wave, or Warp Kamehameha). When you do battle, your opponent's life will go down, but not yours, from the virus. Because you have the Perpetual Energy R&D, you can do your specialty move as many times as you like after a punch combo. Also, since your Ki is always maxed out, when you block it will not go down and you will not receive any damage.

This tactic may take some time to do, but it is worth it. First, set the timer to 30 seconds. Next, select any character and customize him with a vest of any kind, Viral Heart Disease, and Vaccine. Then go into the Advanced Martial Arts Tournament, select the character that you customized, and send him into battle. Once started, just let your foe knock you down. When you are on the ground hold Down to remain there. The CPU will try to punch, kick, and do other moves, but will not hit you. You can stay on the ground and the time will run to zero. The heart problem will take care of your foe. The opponent may hit you a couple of times, but it will not hurt you much, if any. You can win all the matches in roughly five minutes and receive 50,000 zenie fast. Repeat this to get even more money.

Note: This trick need's a controller with an auto-fire feature. Then use Gero's Perpetual Energy R&D. Set the auto-fire to Ki, then go into practice or duel mode (not tournament). Get your opponent on the ground and hold Circle. If done long enough, it will go into triple digit combos and high damage numbers.

At the start of the match, press Punch(3x's), Kick. This will knock your enemy into the air. Tap Forward(2x's) to fly up there, then press Forward to knock the foe out of the ring. Punch also works, but Forward is stronger. If it does not work, try it once again.

When you are doing a "death move" like the Kamehameha, Buster Cannon, Destructive Wave, Photon Shot, Power Blitz, etc., press Start at the second just before it explodes on your opponent. The move will cause more damage. This may take some practice.

Beating Cell in Final Battle
When the battle starts, notice that you have one third of your health gone. Immediately hit Cell with a Super Kamehameha wave (Kick(3x's), Forward, Kick, Energy). This should knock out roughly half his health. Be careful, If you get too far ahead of Cell in health, he will turn into a killing machine. After the wave hits, get rid of the rest of Cell's life by preforming punch combos.

Attack Cell with Spirit Bomb five times and he will be dead.

Attack Cell with Hercule's Present For You two to three times and he will be dead.

Just keep on using physical attacks without using special moves. In time his guard will break and you will do more harm. This takes some practice, but you will win.

Beating Cell in all forms
As soon as you start, back up. Your foe should run attack. Jump back and Kick(3x's). Repeat this trick until all his health is gone.

Legend of Hercule
Put a Sensu Bean on Hercule before you begin. You will be revived, but only during the Goku, Gohan, and Cell fights. You will just die in any other battle.

Just use Hercule's Present For You on each foe twice and they should be killed.

Super Trunks 2 Capsule
There is a capsule to receive Super Trunks 2. It is stronger then Super Trunks and is helpful when fighting in the tournaments. You can purchase this from Mr. Popo. The "Recommended" capsule section is the best place to find it. Exit in and out of the purchase screen and the recommended capsule should eventually appear as Super Trunks 2.

First, buy the Capsule for the Adept level for World Tournament mode. Then, finish the Adept level with Trunks. When you enter the Skill Shop, the Super Trunks 2 capsule will be there for you to buy at the bottom as a Recommended Capsule.

Trunks' Mystery Fiber Jacket Capsule
One of the rarest capsules in this game, can be gotten by buying the suggested capsule at Mr. Popo's shop or by finishing the Androids Saga episode: A New Threat.

Extra capsule slot
When selecting Capsules for any Saiyan, half Saiyan (except Saiyanman), or Cell, you can trick the CPU into giving you an extra slot. First, use four slots for anything, then use the 1/3 Sensu Bean and Saiyan Heritage. There should be an empty slot at seven. Next, replace the 1/3 Sensu Bean for a normal Bean. In effect, you will get a full Sensu Bean for two slots instead of three. You cannot trick the CPU into changing the new eighth slot into anything else.

Getting Capsules easier
Go to story mode after you finish it. Finish any level and you should receive a Capsule. Although you cannot choose the Capsule that you receive, you might get a new Capsule that you do need.

Field transformation
When your playing as Trunks in practice mode, go to the grass land and use his burning attack. You will battle in a hole that Trunks made with his attack and the trees will be burned to a crisp.

Android 17 and Android 18: Extra damage with Power Blitz
When you preform a Power Blitz close up, pause the game just before it hits your foe. Resume the game and it will do up to a full bar of damage.

Android 17 and 18: Suggested skills
If you choose not to use, or do not have the Breakthrough Capsule for Android 17 and 18, these are a good substitute. By giving them all these capsules, it will have every one of the attacks that come with their Breakthrough capsules excluding Buster Swing (#17/18). This is not included because its main use is to cause harm if you have low Ki or to buy time to gain Ki. With Gero's Perpetual Energy R&D, #17/18 will never lose any Ki on any energy attack. You may want to test with switching out Power Strike with a Senzu Bean if you like.

Power Blitz (#17/18)
Energy Field (#17/18)
Gero's Perpetual Energy R&D
Power Falling Star (#17/18)
Power Strike (#17/18)

Captain Ginyu: Easy win
Just put Captain Ginyu on "Custom", and choose him with the Body Change and Super Kami Water capsules on. At the start, your health will be lowered. Then, change bodies and you will see your opponent's health lowering. Rarely, your foe will change bodies back and your health will still go lower.

Cell: Suggested skills

Kamahmaha
Kamahmaha
Second Form
Perfect Form
Spirit Bomb (Cell)
Improved Special Clothing (or Andriod Barrier)
Senzu Bean 2/3

Cell: Easy tournament win
At the start, go towards your foe then hold Forward and keep tapping Punch. You will in time knock them back. Run to them, and when they do get up, either do it again or hold Forward and keep pressing Kick to receive a ring out. This will work if they do not block. If they block, then block them until you think you can punch them then do the punch or kick combo. If you have Viral Heart Disease and Vaccine, customize him with them. If you cannot get a ring out, then you will at least beat them with a K.O.

Freiza: Suggested skills

To do the most powerful attack in the game all you have to do is edit Goku with:

Spirit Bomb
Spirit Bomb
Saiyan Spirit
Super Kami Water

After you charge up to King Kai Fist x10, your attack will be raised to 190%. Then, do the Spirit Bomb and you will do 2280 damage.

A second way to get a high attack with Goku is listed below:

Sprit Bomb
Saiyan Spirit
Super Kami Water
Potential
King Kai Fist x2
King Kai Fist x5

This should have you up to 220. If you do plenty of up close battles and do not like the combo energy attacks, you can switch the Spirit Bomb with King Kai Fist x 10. You can also exchange the Spirit Bomb for a move that moves a bit quicker, lowering the block percentage.

Another set-up is like this:

Warp Kamehameha x2
Kamehameha x2
Viral heart Disease
Vaccine

Use Super Dragon Fist x2 and you will have more than 40 hit combo.

These skills below will make Goku so strong that he receives an attack power of 200, which is the highest in the game.

Grassland level: Make a large bolder fall on enemy
When you are battling in practice or duel mode in the Grassland, you will notice two big boulders placed on opposite ends of the arena. Push your opponent towards them and get close to the boulders. Preform a combo move that ends with a power strike facing towards the boulder. You can also hold Forward and hold R1 for a few seconds to charge up a hit, then release, creating a power punch. This will cause the enemy to go flying into the boulder. You may have to move around to find the right point to send them flying into. You will see a short intermission with the bolder breaking off of the mountain and falling on top of them. You can also do this to the other boulder on the side of the arena. This will also give a smaller battling range once the boulder is gone. To do this again, just go back to the arena. Note: This bolder does 500 damage to the foe. Also, if you look closely at the mountain, you will notice there is a cracked portion. Slam them in the center of the cracked portion and it should break off, doing 500 damage and falling on them.

Kami's Lookout level: Easy opponent damage
Get your foe to the edge of the lookout, then preform a strong attack. They will fall off and you will also follow them down. This will take off half their green life bar.

Restore life
To receive life without going into the rejuvenation chamber on Namek, go up near to the chamber without going in. You should see your life bar fill up.

Powering up
Hold X and tap Back(2x's), and then hold Back after you tap it again.

Destroying arenas
If you go into any battlefield with walls that touch against the field, push your opponent against the wall and preform an Elbow Smash (Toward + Toward Hold + Punch) or some other hard hitting attack. Your foe will be smashed into the wall, dealing the damage of the attack as well as an extra bonus. This can also be done for higher walls and moves that will knock somebody out of the ring.

In order to make an arena a smoldering crater, select a character with an Ultimate Move (for example Goku's Spirit Bomb or Trunks' Burning attack). Then, use the Ultimate Move. Note: You cannot demolish the World Tournament, Hyperbolic Time Chamber, or Kami's Lookout arenas.

Go to versus or practice mode and select a character that has an Ultimate Attack, like Trunks or Frieza. Use it on a character and after the blast you should see that Planet Namek is almost aready out to blow up with lightning and tornadoes.

Just use a powerful energy attack to turn any battle into a desert wasteland. These attacks can do this: Perfect Cell's Spirit Bomb, Trunks' Burning Attack, Android #16's Hell Flash. Deathball and other attacks should also have the same effect.

To destroy the Cell Games arena, choose either duel or practice mode (suggested). Play as Teen Gohan and press Kick(2x's), Right, Kick(2x's) for the Super Kamehameha in Super Saiyan 2.

You can actually destroy Kami's lookout. Just use a Spirit Bomb to turn it into a crater. When battling, equip a fire Ki Blast Wave capsule x2 to hit them with 16 hits. If you can equip a character with a Long Combo x2, it will preform a 42 hit combo (only with Tien, Goku, Gohan, Trunks, and Cell).

Secret area
You can destroy Kami's lookout with Goku's Spirit Bomb or Hercules' Present For You. After you destroy it, you will fight in an area with plenty of dirt and a few mountains.

On the island stage, hit your foe into the rocks once or twice. They will shatter and you will fall into a cave-like stage with waterfalls that are in the background.

Hercule: Easy win
When the match does begin, use Present For You. When your opponent is down, recharge your Ki. Do not turn to Super Saiyan as this will make your Ki lower slowly. Repeat this three or four times and you will win.

Use this trick to win in advanced tournament mode. Before the fight starts, move towards them and press Punch swiftly. You will get a slight edge by punching the opposition early. Punch four times then press Energy. Hercule will jump up, do a kick move, and then do a big kick and knock the opponent back on the ground. Run up and do the Dynamite Kick as many times as required to kick them back and out of the ring. Note: When you knock them back the first time, you can knock them out easily by pressing the D-Pad towards them twice, and on the second time, hold it. You will jump in the air and fly towards them. Then, by either pressing Kick ,R1, or Punch, it will hit them out of the ring.

Hercule: Suggested skills

High Tension
Super Kami Water
Present For You x2
Potential
Cheering

After you become High Tension and Potential is done, your attack will be at 190%. Then, use Present For You. It will do 2280 damage, and more if you hit the opponent.

Teen Gohan: 41-hit combo
Add two Fierce Ranma capsules to Teen Gohan. When you go into the combination, he will do the attack like normal, except it will last longer and do 41 hits. Note: Sometimes it will only does 38 hits.

Tien: Suggested skills

Dodompa x2
Ki Blast Cannon x2
Domination Blast x2
Jackhammer Fist

Trunks: Suggested skills
The strongest possible move in the game will  remove 2999 points of damage. Each character starts off with just 3000 points of life. In order to do this give Trunks this:

Super Saiyan
Burning Attack
Burning Attack
Super Kami Water
Potential
Mixed Blood Power

Once you are in a fight, use his Burning Attack. It will leave your enemy with 1 point of life. Just one more hit and they are finished.

Goku: Easy win
Use this trick to win a match of any kind with Goku. First, access the capsule for Warp Kamameha. Then get plenty of item capsules like Saiyan Spirit to power-up Goku. Go to "Edit Skills" and give Goku Warp Kamameha and any other wanted skills. Then, when you pick your character, choose custom Goku. When the match starts, use Warp Kamameha. When your opponent is down, recharge your Ki (press X + Away(2x's) and hold). Repeat this and you should win with three or four Warp Kamamehas.

When you are playing as Goku in tournament mode, equip him with power-up moves/items and two Warp Kamehameha. It should do a full life bar of harm.

Goku 80-hit combo
Go to practice mode and select Goku vs. Yamcha. Then get Yamcha to the top of the level by pressing K, K, Back, K. Goku should now kick twice, then follow with an upward kick. Once you do this many times you should be at the highest point. The only way to tell is when Yamcha falls backwards then floats. When he falls, hold Forward and tap P. By the time Yamcha does hit the ground, you should have received 80 hits. Goku may also receive 40 hits when he is equipped with two Super Dragon Fists.

Great Saiyaman: Suggested skills

Gero's Perpetual Energy
Senzu bean
Two of any desired moves.

Set up these Capsules:

Gero's perpetual energy
One desired move

Hercule: Easy tournament win
Manage to get your opponent close to the edge and use Dynamite Kick. The last kick should knock him out.

Go to the tournament and obtain up to five Ki gauges. Press X, Square, Triangle (High Tension), then swiftly press X(2x's), Left + X, Left + X (Present For You). Use this method to get easy victories in the tournament or "The Legend Of Hercule".

This trick need's High Tension and Hercule's special and works on any level in tournament mode. First, push your foe back with punches until you get them five feet away from the edge. By then, you should have enough to power up to High Tension. As soon as you have the chance, preform Hercule's special. The move will make Hercule drop his exploding device and launch him straight at the foe, which should knock them out of the ring. If not, you can pick up from there since the attack takes off one bar of health or more, you can just beat them instead. Another way to win instead of using the Hercule special, do the same steps as in the first part of this method , then push your foe to the end of the ring with punches. Then, do the Dynamite Kick. If you are not too close to the edge, it will knock the opponent out. However, if you are too close, the move will change or turn a different direction when it is being done.

Trunks: Easy tournament win
For a ring out, use Punch(2x's), Kick(2x's) to knock your opponent close to the edge of the ring. Next, use a series of kicks, or Punch, Kick to knock them out. For a knock out, once you receive Super Trunks, Super Trunks2, and Super Saiyan, this will be easy. At the start of the match, turn Super Saiyan instantly. Remember every second counts. Gather your energy by powering up or continually attacking your enemy. Launch a Burning Attack. Doing this should weaken him. You can then avoid losing by staying away from the edge and knocking your opponent's lights out. Also, once you get Dr. Gero's Perpetual Energy R&D move, equip Trunks with it. Then, have two Burning Attacks, a Finish Buster, and a Senzu Bean. If you have any more slots, equip as them as you like. Then, once the match starts, you can have nonstop Burning Attacks until your opponent is beaten. Note: With this move, transformation is not possible. All the special moves listed can be bought at Mr. Popo's skill shop.

At the start of the battle use Trunks' grab attack. He will get them close to the outer edge of the ring. While they are getting up, tap Forward(2x's) to dash to them. After they are up, use Trunks' kick combo (Triangle a few times) until he does a roundhouse kick to knock them out of the ring. If this does not work, as when your opponent counters your kicks), keep on trying.

A suggested World Tournament Skill combo For Vegeta is listed below. Your opponent's HP Gauge will lower rapidly and you can use Galik Gun as many times you like.

Galik Gun (or Final Flash)
Viral Heart Disease
Vaccine
Gero's Perpetual Energy R&D

Dr. Brief's throws a bomb
In the "Edit Skills" screen, go to change capsules. Then select one of the androids and wait.Then look at Dr. Briefs to see him throwing capsule boxes. Watch real carefully and you will see him throw a bomb.

Increased damage
If you happen to equip two of the same ability, you will do more damage. For example, if playing as Vegeta use this : Final Flash x2, Big Bang Attack x2, Super Sayian, Super Vegeta, 1/3 Senzu Bean. Your attack for Final Flash and Big Bang will be higher.

Charge your own energy
To charge your energy, rotate the Right Analog-stick clockwise. This will work best with Piccolo.

Real voice after transformation
A character's voice will stay the same, even after transformations. Preform a special attack to hear their real voice, like Perfect Cell's Spirit Bomb.

More authentic dialog at beginning of the fight
For you to have dialog that has to do with story mode or the series Dragon Ball Z, pair these two fighters together: Krillin and Android #18, Frieza and Goku, Vegeta and Goku, Android #16 and Goku, and Trunks and either Androids #17 or Android #18, Piccolo and Teen Gohan. If you pair these fighters as mentioned, you will hear different dialog pertaining to the story mode, or the relation between the characters. Certain character pairs may also have different dialog at the end of a fight. Note: The Great Saiyaman always says the same thing no matter what, but it always has to do with "Justice" or "Evil".

CPU counters
if you guard most of the time, the CPU will in time do a Power Punch or Power Kick.

Double K.O.
When in tournament mode with both you and your opponent have low life and both of you kill yourself, the game will announce a Double K.O. and both of you will lose.

Using two custom characters with one memory card
When you are at the character selection screen, choose the first character (player one or two),while the other player waits. After the first player chooses, remove the memory card from slot one and put it in slot two. You could probaly now be able to choose another custom character for player two.

Vegeta: Easy tournament win
Before going into world tournament mode, go to edit skills and equip Vegeta with these capsules: Senzu Beans, Super Saiyan, Super Vegeta, Gallick Gun(Cannon), and Big Bang Attack. Then go into world tournament mode, and when "Fight" appears, start kicking. When your opponent is sent flying through the sky to the ground, hold X and tap Away(2x's), then hold it. Then release X and Away. Then, keep kicking once again. Redo this until you get to Vegeta's maximum level. Turn into Super Vegeta. Then, press Left + Square, Square(2x's), Triangle, Circle. It will take out one and a half Life. Repeat this until your opponent is beaten.

Preform Final Flash, then run up to your opponent and press Kick. Then, do a kick combo.

First choose normal Vegeta at the character selection screen. When the match starts, use Final Flash. When your opponent is down, recharge your Ki. Do not turn to Super Saiyan as this will make your Ki lower slowly. Repeat this three or four times and you will win.

Yamcha: Easy tournament win
To win a tournament easier, select Yamcha as your fighter. As soon as the battle starts, use the Wolf's Fang Fist (just make sure the opponent does not block the four punches if he does not use the move and just block until a chance is given). The seventh hit will knock your foe into the air and the final attack should hit the opponent out of the ring. If the opponent does not go out, knock him back near the edge then use the Wolf's Fang Fist (once again making sure that they do not block the four punches).

Yamcha: Wolf Fang Fist
After you perform the Punch(4x's), Energy, you can keep on pressing Energy up to seven more times and receive more hits than just the normal four. This will also raise the damage to the opponent.

Ki Ball tennis
This has no reason other than a laugh, and will not make anything in the game available. Enter practice mode (or two-player duel if you want to play with a friend) and choose your characters and stage. When the fight begins, put as much distance between you and your opponent as you can. If in practice mode, set the opponent's action to Deflect-Back at the pause menu. Once you are as far away as you can, launch an energy ball by pressing Circle. In practice mode, your foe should knock it back at you. Just before the ball hits you, press guard (X) and if it timed right, it should be reflected back at the foe. In a two player match, you can play it like a proper game. For example, flip a coin to see who serves (launches the energy blast). Set a score limit. If the Ki ball is knocked away, hits, or is hit by another Ki blast, whoever reflected the ball last receives the point.

Note: Make your way to Mr.Popo's shop and purchase the Gero's Deflect-Back R&D (which will enable you to deflect Ki balls by holding X). If your friend does the identical thing, you can play Ki tennis all you desire.

World Tournament references
A few characters will say different things to other characters. For example:

Goku against Gohan (wins): "Wow, you've gotten stronger, Gohan."
Goku against Frieza (beginning): "You never learn, do you?"
Trunks against Android #16, #17, or Cell (wins): "I did it, Mom!"
Goku against Android #16 (beginning): "Hey Gloomy Gears."

Higher combos
To help you make someone's hits higher, just add any move on to them that has a description of "Attack with oppressive force". Then, add whatever else you desire to the character. It is suggested that this be done to Kid Gohan or Teen Gohan because their attack can get forty hits or more.

First select a fighter that shoots out fast Ki blasts. Then, put Gero's Perpetual Energy on that person and go to practice. Now choose a fight against a big foe (like Dodoria or Android #16). Knock them down with an attack (like Kamehameha or Buster Cannon), then keep using Ki blasts quickly for a long time. The damage and hits will go up.
