-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- I. Introduction -
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| First off, allow me to introduce myself. I am T.J. Burns, also known to |
| many as the Chameleon. I have been a longtime gamer, I own my own gaming |
| store, Chameleon's Den (http://chameleonsden.com), and I am the creator and |
| administrator of Traderz, an online game trading community. As you can |
| see, gaming's in my blood. =) |
| |
| Due to the nature of my business, and of Traderz, I come in contact with |
| all kinds of different games, and am fortunate to have a chance to play all |
| of my favorite classic games as well as various new releases. Like any |
| true gamer, I figure out what I can on my own at first, but I have checked |
| various sites only many times to go back and read about the things that I |
| missed. |
| |
| I was a little suprised to note a lack of resources for Super Dragon Ball |
| Z, so I decided to throw together this list of all of the characters' moves,|
| with information on how to perform each technique, and more. This guide |
| isn't yet what I would consider to be 100% completed, as there are still |
| hidden characters and secrets for me to add, but.. Here goes. |
| |
| If there's anything in here that's in error, please report it to me. Do |
| not email me to gripe about the names and spellings - I'm using the U.S. |
| version of the game and am quite aware that some names were originally |
| spelled differently.. I'm using the game's spellings... |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- II. About This Game -
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| Super Dragon Ball Z doesn't top Budokai in my books, but it has a few |
| very interesting ideas, such as 'creating' your characters and having them |
| gain experience.. In a fighting style game, I found it unique anyway.. |
| |
| All in all, a good fighting game. I assume you have it already, if |
| you're reading this, but if not, go get it! Someone may have it for trade |
| over at Traderz, or you could always check Yahoo auctions or the new Google |
| Auctions once they launch.. (I don't recommend eBay) |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- III. Basic Moves -
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| As with all fighting style games, there are basic moves that are common |
| to all characters. This is a good key to scan through, for the sake of |
| understanding the terms I'll be using later. The buttons involved in these |
| moves can be changed in your game's configuration, but I will be listing |
| the defaults for each of these. |
| |
| Note! Many moves in this games will allow you to press either of the |
| attack buttons, so if I say 'Attack', you can use either one.. In some |
| cases, the 'Strong Attack', or Triangle by default, will do more damage. |
| |
| Buttons: |
| Square - Normal little standard attack.. |
| Triangle - Strong attack |
| X - Block |
| Circle (On the ground) - Jump |
| Circle (In midair) - Hover |
| Circle (While hovering) - Drop back to the ground |
| |
| Dual buttons: |
| L1 (Square + Triangle) - Grab your enemy and attack |
| L2 (X + Circle) - A short dash, either toward or away from your enemy |
| R1 (Square + X) - Dash Shoulder Attack |
| R2 (X + Triangle) - Flying power attack, can stun your enemy |
| Up + Circle - Super High Jump |
| Forward + Square - Standard energy burst, differs character to character |
| Forward, Forward, Attack or Back, Back, Attack - Different type of attack |
|_____________________________________________________________________________|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- IV. Character Techniques -
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| For easier searching, I'm listing these characters in alphabetic order. |
| |
| |
| a. Android 16 |
| --------------- |
| Android 16 is a very large, slow, and strong character.. |
| |

| ground. |
| |
| Techniques: |
| Combination A (Square, Square, Triangle) |
| |

| Rocket Punch (Roll down to forward, attack) - Android 16 shoots his |
| hand at the enemy. Does more damage with triangle. |
| |
| Mega-Tackle (Back, forward, attack) - Android 16 charges at the enemy. |
| This attack also has a chance of stunning the enemy. |
| |
| Gigantic Press (While in the air, Down, L1) - Android 16 lays down in |
| mid-air, falling downward to land on and crush his enemy. |
| |
| Evolution Buster (360 degree roll, down, toward, and away, then attack) - |
| You need to do this close, as Android 16 will try to grab the enemy. |
| |
| Hell Flash (Roll down to forward, roll down to forward, attack) - Android |
| 16 shoots his fist into the ground, causing an explosion. |
| |
| |
| b. Android 17 |
| --------------- |
| Android 17 is rather annoying, but he's fast and has good moves.. |
| |
| Grab - Android 17 grabs the enemy by their feet and slams them into the |
| ground. |
| |
| Violence Hold (Square + X, then Square) |
| |
| Combination A1 (Square, Square, Triangle, Triangle) |
| |
| Combination A2 (Square, Square, Square) - This 'combo' leaves the enemy |
| facing the opposite direction. |
| |
| Combination B1 (Square, Triangle, Triangle) |
| |
| Combination B2 (Square, Triangle, Square) - Attacks then does his grab |
| |
| Blaster (Roll down to forward, attack) - His default energy attack |

| |
| Avenging Fork (Roll down to back, Attack, Attack again when you hit) |
| |

| This is basically a rapid fire version of the Blaster attack. |
| |
| Energy Field - (360 degree roll, down, forward, and away, then L1) - This |
| attack is great for defense, attacking a radious all around Android 17. |
| |
| |
| c. Android 18 |
| --------------- |
| Android 18.. She's cute, fast, and usually armed with great techniques, |
| but her arsenal of skills are a little lacking in this game. |
| |
| Grab - Android 18 grabs her enemy by their feet and slams them into the |
| ground, much like her brother does. |
| |
| Violence Hold (Square + X, then Square) |
| |
| Combination A1 (Square, Square, Triangle, Triangle) |

| |
| Ultimate Blaster (Roll down to forward, Roll down to forward, Attack) - |
| This is basically a rapid fire version of the Blaster attack. |
| |
| |
| d. Cell |
| --------- |
| I miss the Stage 1 version of Cell.. The rest of them have always looked |
| so lame to me.. Anyway, Cell's extremely tall, but he has a lot of rather |
| unique attacks, definately worth checking out... |
| |
| Grab - Cell lifts his enemy up and shots a blast right through them. |
| |
| Combination A (Square, Square, Triangle) |
| |
| Combination B (Triangle, Triangle, Triangle) |
| |
| Hell Needle (Roll down to forward, Attack. Can add a few more attacks) |
| |
| Interrupter (Down, Up, Attack or Up, Down, Attack) - Cell jumps to either |
| side, firing off needle shots as he goes. Direction depends on order. |
| |
| Drain Life (Forward, Down, Down/Forward, Attack) - Drains some life from |
| the enemy.. Square also drains action bar, Triangle also drains energy. |
| |
| Drain Life *Skills* (Forward, Down, Down/Forward, Square + Triangle) - This |
| attack drains a little life but also allows Cell to copy one of the |
| techniques his enemy uses.. Read below for more.. |
| |
| *Use Drained Skill* (Back, Forward, Attack) - Provided you have drained a |
| skill, this will cause Cell to perform that technique. |
| |
| Judgement (Roll down to forward, Roll down to Dorn/Forward, Attack) - Cell |
| performs several rapid-fire shots. |
| |
| |
| e. Chi-Chi |
| ------------- |
| Chi-Chi is rather interesting. Fun trivial things to note is that she |
| uses Goku's Power Pole from Dragon Ball, and she rides on Nimbus when she |
| hovers, being unable to fly herself.. |
| |
| Grab - Chi-Chi does a series of rapid kicks, lifting the enemy into the |
| air, then she kicks them away. |
| |
| Combination A (Square, Triangle, Triangle) |
| |
| Combination B1 (Triangle, Triangle, Square) |
| |
| Combination B2 (Triangle, Triangle, Triangle) |
| |
| Banana Fan (Back, Forward, Attack) - Creates a little twister.. |
| |
| Power Pole Attack (Roll down to forward, Attack) - This attack can be |
| expanded into a Power Pole Combo by following with Attack twice more. |
| |
| Power Slugger (Roll down to away, Attack) - The attack she throws will have |
| a boomerang effect if it messes the enemy, but it won't hurt Chi-Chi. |
| |
| Super Power Slugger (Roll down to away, Roll down to away, Attack) |
| |
| |
| f. Frieza |
| ----------- |
| Annoying, small, fast.. A good fighter for annoying your friends! |
| Seriously though, his tail and variety of moves make him a good fighter, |
| but it does get annoying to watch him do most of his attacks with his arms |
| crossed in boredom. |
| |
| Grab - Actually a pretty nice juggle, hard to describe.. |
| |
| Combination A (Square, Square, Triangle, Triangle) - This entire combo is |
| done with Frieza keeping his arms crossed the whole time. |
| |
| Combination B1 (Square, Triangle, Triangle) - Frieza's 3rd hit hits the |
| enemy from behind.. |
| |
| Combination B2 (Square, Triangle, Square) |
| |
| Round Dash (Back, Forward, Circle) or (Forward, Back, Circle) - Frieza will |
| start running at the enemy.. Each time you press Attack while Frieza is |
| running, he'll fire off an energy attack. |
| |
| Sonic Warp (Roll down to forward, Circle), or (Roll down to back, Circle), |
| or (Forward, Down, Down/Forward, Circle) or (Back, Down, Down/Back, Circle) |
| Frieza will do his rapid movement that looks like he teleports, where he |
| goes depends on which method you use to do this technique. |
| |
| Frieza Cutter (Roll down to forward, Attack) - Cutter attack.. |
| |
| Psychokinesis (Roll down to back, Attack) - Frieza will use telekinesis to |
| lift some rocks up to pelt the enemy with.. When did he show signs of |
| such a talent in the series LoL? I certainly don't remember it.. |
| |
| Flex Laser - (Back, Forward, Attack) - Frieza firest off 3 energy attacks. |
| |
| Death Ball - (Roll down to forward, Roll down to forward, Attack) - You can |
| hold the attack button to charge this attack up larger.. Try it out! |
| |
| |
| g. Gohan |

| honest, doesn't she? |
| |
| Grab - Gohan kicks his enemy into the air, jumps up, and kicks them back |
| down into the ground. |
| |
| Combination A (Triangle, Triangle, Triangle) - Slide, Kick, Headbutt |
| |
| Combination B (Square, Square, Triangle) - The last hit can explode |
| instead, but usually Gohan will kick his enemy to the side instead. |

| j. Majin Buu |
| -------------- |
| Majin Buu... Large, defensive, and has alot of (for lack of better way |
| of describing them) large attacks. Rather comical character... good for |
| laughs as you watch him prance around the fighting arena. Buu also has a |
| few very nice attacks. |
| |
| Interesting basic attack - Triangle while jumping will cause an explosion |
| if Buu hits his enemy.. |
| |

| 17's Barrier Attack. |

| Triangle attacks stretch his arms out quite a distance to attack.. |

| |
| l. Trunks |
| ----------- |
| Trunks, like his father, was always a favorite character of mine.. An |
| interesting thing to note in this game is that his Triangle attacks use his |
| sword, and they are very fast for strong, triangle attacks.. |

| |
| Crescent Wave (Roll down to forward, attack) or (Roll down to forward, |
| Square + Triangle) - Trunks fires off a wave attack at his enemy.. Square |
| causes that wave to go horizontal with the ground, Triangle causes it to |
| go vertival, and both creates both waves at the same time. |

| |
| Aura Smash (Back, Forward, Attack) - Trunks launches himself at his enemy, |
| shoulder first. |

| Super Saiyan (Forward, Back, Roll to down and then to forward, Attack) |
| |
| |
| m. Vegeta |

| son, but unfortunately he's rather slow this time around.. |
| |
| Grab - Throws his enemy (Or ally) into the air and shoots them |
| |
| Combination A (Square, Square, Triangle) |
| |
| Combination B1 (Square, Triangle, Triangle) |
| |
| Combination B2 (Square, Triangle, Square) |

| times for extra beams.. |
| |
| G. Slicer (Up, Down, Attack) or (Down, Up, Attack) - Vegeta shoots off an |
| arc of attacks. |
| |

| |
| Counter Break (While being attacked, Roll down to back and hit X) |
| |
| Galick Gun (Roll down to forward, Roll down to down/forward, Attack) - This |
| rapid fire technique brings back memories, of a certain planet that he |
| and Nappa briefly stopped on on their way to Earth.. |
