Key: This list is now red-green color blind friendly." ^_^
Color Type What It Means
1,000,000 Manga\
Daizenshyus
These levels came from the Japanese Mangas and Daizenshyus either by direct reading or calculation based on a direct reading. There is NO disputing these as they came from Toriyama himself!
Ex: The manga states form 2 Furiza has over 1,000,000; or Vegita: 18,000 * 10 (ozouru) = 180,000
1,000,000 Scouter Reading These levels cam directly from Scouter readings in the JAPANESE version of DBZ. There is NO disputing these.
Ex: "Hmm.. the Scouter only says 5,000."
1,000,000 Stated These levels are stated by characters in the JAPANESE version of DBZ. There is NO disputing these.
Ex: "Saibamen have 1,200 each"
1,000,000 Guesstimate These levels are calculated based on Stated and Scouter levels as well as on a who can beat who basis. These are the only disputable levels, but I have built these so they tie closely to Manga, Scouter, and Stated levels.
Ex: Form 1 Furiza and Vegita are dead even, so their levels are the same.

Dragon ball Episodes

Quest for the Dragon balls

Goku: 10
Goku Ozouru: 100

A little note about Dragon ball power levels: Power levels from the Dragon ball series were written down in the Daizenshu's well after the manga was completed. In other words, some odd these levels might not make total sense in relation to DBZ power levels.
22nd Budoukai

Jackie Chun (Kame-sennin): 139
Goku: 180
Tenshinhan: 180
Tsurusennin: 120

23rd Budoukai

Goku: 260
Piccolo Daimaou: 260

Dragon ball Z Movies & Specials

Bardock Special

Bardock: 8,000
Toma: 6,000
Ozouru Bardock: 80,000
Ozouru Toma: 60,000
Chibi Vegita: 5,000
Bardock (on Planet Meet): Just under 10,000
Kakarotto: 2
Dudoria's Henchmen on Planet Meat: < 8,000
Dudoria: Anywhere from 10,000 to 21,000
Furiza: 530,000

Since Bardock's level is just under 10,000 before visiting planet Meet, its probably around 8,000 at the begining. This, in turn, means Toma is weaker than Bardock since he was unable to kill Bardock's attacker. A Saiya-jin in Ozouru form is 10x stronger than a Saiya-jin in normal form which gives us Ozouru Bardock and Ozouru Toma.

Chibi Vegita is probably around 5,000 since he easily defeats 10 saibamen, which have PLs of 1,200 each. Bardock easily defeat's Dudoria's men, but gets his butt kicked by Dudoria. Furiza probably has the same level here as in the Namek saga.

Trunks Special

Android 17: 60,000,000
Android 18: 60,000,000
Super Saiya-jin Gohan: 70,000,000
Super Saiya-jin Trunks: 35,000,000


Here, the Android's power levels are based on the guesses from the Android saga. Since Gohan can almost take on both of them, he probably has around 70,000,000.

Trunks' level is based on the level he has when arriving on Earth to fight Furiza bot.

Dragon ball Z Episodes

Raditsu vs. Farmer

Raditsu: 1,200
Farmer with Shotgun: 5

Raditsu vs. Goku and Piccolo

Raditsu: 1,200
Piccolo (with weighted clothing) : 322
Piccolo (without weighted clothing) : 408
Piccolo's Makankosappo (1st Try) : 1,330
Piccolo's Makankosappo (2nd Try) : 1,440
Goku (with weighted clothing) : 334
Goku (without weighted clothing) : 416
Goku (with Kamehameha) : 924
Gohan: 1 to 1,307 (power changes w/ emotions)



After the Battle

Kame-sennin: 139
Kame-sennin's Turtle: 0.001
Kuririn: 206
Tenshinhan: 250
Yamucha: 177
Piccolo: 329


These levels pretty much speak for themselves. They come soon after the battle with Raditsu where Bulma uses Raditsu's Scouter to locate Tenshinhan, Chaozu, and Yamucha (this part was cut from the American version of DBZ)

Z Fighters vs. Saibamen and Nappa

Saibamen: 1,200
Yamucha: 1,480
Kuririn: 1,083
Piccolo: 1,220
Gohan: 981
Gohan's Masenko: 2,800


Notice that the Scouter reading and the characters actual readings are different. This is due to the fact that the Z Fighters can mask some of their Ki while not in battle. Although the masked vs. actual levels are not that different right now, the difference becomes more evident in the Furiza saga as the fighters learn how to use it more effectively.

Goku vs. Vegita and Nappa

Goku: 5,000
Goku Powered Up: 8,000
Goku Kaioken x1: 12,000
Goku Kaioken x2: 16,000
Goku Kaioken x3: 24,000
Goku Kaioken x4: 32,000
Nappa: 4,000
Vegita: 18,000
Ozouru Vegita: 180,000
Ozouru Gohan: 9,810


As stated in the manga and Japanese series, Kaioken x2 and up multiplies your maximum level by that respective amount, hence 8,000 x 4 = 32,000. Also stated, Kaioken x1 gives you a "great increase in speed, and a slight increase in power." Hence, I assumed Kaioken 1x gives you 1.5 times your normal maximum level.

A saiyan's power increases 10 times in the Ozouru state, hence Vegeta's 18,000 ups to 180,000 in his ozouru form.

Gohan and Kuririn vs. Furiza's Thugs

Gohan: 1,500
Kuririn: 1,500
Furiza's Men: < 1,000


At this point, Furiza's thugs have an extremely low level. This is evident because Gohan and Kuririn dispatch them in one hit apiece! 0_o

Vegita vs. Kuwi

Vegita: 24,000
Kuwi: 18,000


Not much going on here. Vegita turns Kuwi into fishsticks.

Dudoria & Zarbon vs. Namek Fighters

Zarbon: 23,000
Dudoria: 21,000
Namek Fighters: 3,000


Not much going on here either. Both Zarbon and Dudoria vaporize the Namekian fighters.

Vegita vs. Dudoria

Vegita: 24,000
Dudoria: 21,000


Vegita turns the lard ass into pink marshmallows. 'Nuff said.

Vegita vs. Zarbon (1st time)

Vegita: 24,000
Zarbon: 23,000
Zarbon Monster: 33,000


Vegita is only marginally stronger than Zarbon in his first form, however Zarbon is quite a bit stronger than Vegita after his transformation. He really roughs up Vegita good.

Vegita vs. Zarbon (2nd time)

Vegita: 35,000
Zarbon: 23,000
Zarbon Monster: 33,000


After spending some time in the healing tube, Vegita's power level goes up quite a bit, as do all Sayians when they come close to death.

Vegita, Gohan, Kuririn vs. Ginyu Force

Kuririn: "over 10,000"
Gohan: "over 10,000"
Gohan's Masenko: "above 20,000"
Vegita: 20,000
Vegita: "almost 30,000"
Gerudo: 10,000
Rikum: 40,000


Well, not much to explain here either. Gerudo is fried by Vegita, and Rikum pounds Gohan, Vegita and Kuririn. The manga lists Vegita as 20,000 while powering up to fight Rikum, when earlier his max level was 24,000. Either Vegita is worn out here, or he figures there is no way to beat Rikum anyway. It also seems the series tried to make more since of this this by giving him a level of "almost 30,000."

Goku vs. Ginyu Force

Goku (Scouter): 5,000
Goku vs. Jese and Burter: bursts of 60,000
Goku vs. Ginyu: max power of 180,000
Jese: 50,000
Burter: 45,000
Rikum: 40,000
Ginyu: 120,000


Not much explaining to do here. Goku kicks the Ginyu force's ass, and rightly so.

Goku in Ginyu's Body

Ginyu in Goku's Body: 23,000
Jese: 50,000
Vegita: 60,000
Kuririn: 16,500
Gohan: 17,000


Vegita, again after coming close to death, sees quite a power increase and is now able to fry Jese and take on Ginyu in Goku's Body.
Nail vs. Furiza

Nail: 42,000
Furiza (form 1): 530,000


Even though Nail is the strongest Namek fighter, he doesn't even put a scratch on Furiza.

Vegita vs. Furiza (1st Time)

Vegita: 300,000
Furiza (form 1): 530,000
Furiza (form 2): 1,000,000


Now, I realize that this is a high jump for Vegita, but its the only level that makes since. Giving Vegita a level of 530,000 at this points clears up dozens of problems and only creates one. I think that's a fair trade off. And I know some of you feel that Vegita and form 1 Furiza are equal, but after a grasping hands, Vegita is winded, while Furiza acts as if nothing happened.

Piccolo vs. Furiza

Piccolo (merged with Nail): 800,000
Furiza (form 2): 1,000,000
Furiza (form 3): 2,500,000


Although Piccolo's level is lower than Furiza, he is an extremely intelligent and skilled fighter. Piccolo is able to read Furiza's attacks. This causes Furiza to become flustered about not being able to easily beat Piccolo like he should, forcing his transformation. Also, Furiza is only using a fraction of his full power, as he does when fighting Goku.

Vegita vs. Furiza (2nd Time)

Vegita: 1,000,000
Furiza (form 4 33%): 4,000,000


At this point, Vegita is a little off his rocker. He thinks that he is now a Super Saiya-jin. Although he may have had the potential for going Super Saiya-jin, he lacked a motivating factor. While Vegita felt entitled to becoming a Super Saiya-jin, he did not experience any true anger as Goku did when Furiza killed Kuririn. Also, Furiza is only using a fraction of his full power, as he did when battling Piccolo and non-Super Saiya-jin Goku.

Goku vs. Furiza

Furiza (form 4 33.3%): 4,000,000
Furiza (form 4 50%): 6,000,000
Furiza (form 4 70%): 8,400,000
Furiza (form 4 100%): 12,000,000
Goku's Base Level: 300,000
Goku Kaioken x10: 3,000,000
Goku Kaioken x20: 6,000,000
Super Saiya-jin Goku: 15,000,000

Furiza's Levels as he Fights Goku:
Furiza Goku
33% Kaioken x10
33% (short time), 50%, and 70% Kaioken x20
70% and 100% Super Saiya-jin Goku



As you dubbies have no doubt heard "Furiza was using 1% of his power while fighting Goku." This is more evidence to prove my theory that English power levels mean crap.

I have tried many different ways to match up the different levels of Furiza and Goku's power. I hope he chart on the right helps this problem.

Please note: Goku never fights Furiza using his base level of 300,000.

Trunks vs. King Cold and Furiza Bot

King Cold: 30,000,000
Furiza Bot: 25,000,000
Trunks (Supressed): 5
Super Saiya-jin Trunks: 35,000,000
Super Saiya-jin Goku: 40,000,000


ALL LEVELS AFTER THIS POINT ARE A GUESS!!!!!
In the mangas, Japanese series, and Daizenshyus, Toriyama NEVER list any levels after this point. If you go to another site claiming to have levels after this point, well then they are just lying their asses off. Although, I can't really blame those who use the "Dragon ball Guide Book" published in 1996, which doesn't match the series or manga.
