""Drop dead.""
 * Anticlimax Boss: He was given a lot of buildup, was stated to be more powerful than Majin Buu, had a very interesting power, and actually captured Goku, Trunks, and Pan in their first encounter. Then they killed him without breaking a sweat the next time they saw him.
 * Artificial Human

Baby

A parasitic being created by Dr. Myuu to conquer the universe. He manages to break free and body surf his way to Earth. Once there he takes over the whole planet, making Vegeta his main host. Goku suffers a grueling battle against him due to his new child form. But some quick training in the Other World give him the power he need to fight and eventually beat Baby. Freeing Vegeta from Baby and blasting him into the sun as he trying to escape.


 * Batman Gambit: His earlier possession of Trunks, made him realize that the Super Saiyan transformation was the easiest point to take over someone (it was later revealed that he laid a mind-control egg in Trunks' brain as he left anyway). He then proceeded to possess the remaining Saiyans on Earth, settling at Vegeta; the next strongest after Goku, then brainwashing the entire Earth. He also left Goku and co. to find all the Black Star Dragon Balls so they'll return eventually to Earth and he takes the Dragon Balls to make his wish, while Goku and Pan face off against the entire world apart from Buu, Uub and Hercule!
 * Blob Monster: Baby is able to liquefy his body and seep into any cut on a person's body in order to gain control of them.

 * White-Haired Pretty Boy: As Baby-Vegeta.
 * With Great Power Comes Great Insanity: In Vegeta's body as a Great Ape. It's suggested he lost his shit as a result of not preparing himself for the exposure of 17,000,000 Bruits Waves by Bulma's device. He even decides to wipe out Earth just because he can...and Goku was defending it.

Super 17

A combination of the regular Android 17 and Hell Fighter 17 which was built by Dr. Gero and Dr. Myuu. Has much more power than his normal form that he pretty much defeats all the Z-Fighters that come against him, including a Super Sayian 4 Goku. However a combined effort from 18 and Goku finally brings him down.


 * Artificial Human
 * Driven to Suicide/Heroic Sacrifice: It's implied that somewhere deep inside Super 17 was the brother that 18 loved, and he let himself be killed by Goku's Dragon Fist Explosion technique, since he couldn't fight Dr. Myuu's programming completely.
 * Energy Absorption
 * Fusion Dance
 * Gatling Good
 * Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: How he met his end against Goku.
 * Interrupted Cooldown Hug: Because of her anger over Krillin's death, Android 18 manages to be both the loved one who gets Super 17 to cool his jets and the impetuous shooter who stops his Heel Face Turn.
 * Laughing Mad: Played up a bit more in his video game appearances.
 * No-Holds-Barred Beatdown: He did this to Gohan, Goten, Trunks, Vegeta and Uub at the same time.
 * Non-Malicious Monster: Like the original Android 17 before him, Super 17 never actually shoots to kill while curb-stomping the Z-Fighters. It's only during the fight against Goku that he starts actually going for finishers on anyone not named Dr. Gero.
 * Strong As He Needs To Be: Has this as a superpower. One minute, he has a bit of trouble with Super Saiyan (Kid) Goku; the next he's owning Super Saiyan 4 Goku.

 * Breath Weapon
 * Fat Bastard
 * Making a Splash: Has the power of controlling polluted water and can gain energy from swamps.
 * Not-So-Harmless Villain: At first looked completely weak, but then revealed that his pollution was weakening Goku and Pan. After enduring their attacks long enough for it to take effect, he nearly killed them.
 * One-Winged Angel: Subverted. He looks like he's going to and the heroes expect it...but he then states that while some of the Shadow Dragons can, he can't.
 * Poisonous Person: The poisonous gases from his swamp can knock out even Goku.
 * Stone Wall: His main strength is that he's able to soak up punishment until his pollution can weaken his enemy to the point he can overpower them.
 * Warmup Boss

Rage Shenron

The five star dragon created when Goku was wished back to life to combat the Saiyans. Starts off as rather puny but, using an electric slime, can grow to a much more massive form. His element is thunder.

 * Blow You Away
 * Designated Girl Fight: Fights Goku to a standstill, but gets killed by a lucky Kameha by Pan, of all people.

Nuova Shenron

The Four Star Dragon, created when King Piccolo wished for his youth back. Unlike the other dragons, Nuova fights fairly and doesn't rely on dirty tricks. More than likely this is due to the fact that the four star ball was a treasured heirloom of Goku's. May also have something to do with the fact that he is the only one of the dragons created from a wish by an evil being for an evil purpose, with evil consequences. He also has the power over fire.


 * Cain and Abel: He's the Abel
 * Heroic Sacrifice: Which sadly didn't work.

Syn Shenron/Omega Shenron

The One Star Dragon created from the wish to revive all on Namek during Freeza rampage. Not surprisingly he the strongest of all the dragons, even going to Super Saiyan 4 hardly phases him much. Doesn't get any better when he absorbs all the Dragon Balls to become Omega Shenron, the ultimate dragon. In the end it takes energy from all over the universe to form the Spirit Ball needed to stop him. His element is hinted to be "Sky".


 * Bad Boss: Towards Nouva Shenron.
 * Beard of Evil
 * Establishing Character Moment / You Have Failed Me...: Poor Nova.

 * From a Single Cell: Thanks to Rage Shenron's Electrical Slime powers.
 * Made of Evil: Unlike the previous dragons that reflect a negative effect of a wish, Syn is made of all the negative energy the Dragon Balls accumulated over the years. Yes, the source of all hope creates the ultimate bringer of doom in the series.

 * No One Could Survive That: He's the only villain who survived Goku's "Dragon Fist" attack.
 * The Nth Doctor: In the Funimation dub, Syn Shenron is voiced by Bob Carter, but Omega Shenron is voiced by Christopher Sabat
