[@VaultN95]

Piccolo Is actually one of the best candidates for UI. Think about it. The guy spends most of his time meditating and he has 2 other minds in his head. I don't think it would be so hard for him to completely clear his mind and make his body do everything. Also, namekians were shown to be able to easily learn techniques just by seeing them, much like Sayians, which is nice too. And there is also one thing, that can potentially make Piccolo OP. Remember how Namekians breed? Yep, very fast and easy. Aging shouldn't be a problem for Piccolo, since he probably got an immortality from his father, or he can just wish for it. After this he can create a squad or even an army of decently powerful fighters, that can protect the earth when the Sayians aren't there, much like Z warriors did in the Moro Saga. And they only need water to survive! He can also fuse with them to become exponentially stronger, but this is more of Ethics problem, then power scaling. Including normal fusion and the Namekian one. Buu being an incredible untapped potential? Get a load of THIS.

[@levonmartyr1443]

I think the two other minds in piccolo's head would be a hinderance in acheiving UI. Wouldn't Nail and Kami also have to clear...themselves? Like they have to get UI too?

[@Bonzothefifth]

@@levonmartyr1443 In the lore of the actual show, there’s little evidence that either Nail or Kami still have any presence in Piccolo’s mind. Likely years of post-fusion meditation has already ironed out any psychological/spiritual differences between the three, especially since Piccolo has always been the “dominant” personality in these fusions.

@@LupineShadowOmega True, but that could be chalked up to post-fusion disorientation.

It’s weird that Toriyama made Vegeta the permanent sidekick of Goku after the Cell saga. Simply because Vegeta looks similar and has the same types of transformations.

Even Tien makes for a better foil to Goku than Vegeta does.

[@BigRed40TECH]

Honestly, Piccolo needs to get upped to the higher tiers, if only because the show/manga really worked best when Piccolo, Goku, and Vegeta were in the higher brackets. Once Piccolo fell out of competition in that bracket, I think the show really lost something, and didn't quite know what to do with itself as much, as well as with Piccolo himself.

Piccolo is my favorite character, but I don’t want to see just another power boost that Goku will inevitably make irrelevant. Namekians are such a unique species, and it would be cool to see Piccolo get stronger in a way that works with that. Imagine if, instead of god ki, absorbing more Namekians, or some other established process, Namekians could learn to harness the ki and powers of the dragons? Even if it didn’t make him hit as hard as a Super Saiyan Blue, wouldn’t it be rad if one of the most strategic fighters in the series could grant wishes, even limited ones, on the fly? It wouldn’t matter if he couldn’t contribute to the fight in the same way as the Saiyans because he would be able to do things they can’t.

Namekians don't need transformations to be cool

[@Bonzothefifth]

Neither do humans, really. Lol But seriously, though, I’m more impressed with the races who’ve had to gain their power the old fashioned way rather than just pulling new transformations out of nowhere as the plot demands. It really does feel like a massive cheat that Saiyans appear to have the capacity to leapfrog every power gap with just another form of Super Saiyan every time when few other races have shown an ability to transform at all. While he’s boring in pretty much every other aspect, that is one interesting thing about Jiren. He became to strongest of several universes basically training the exact same way Piccolo does. And who knows how old Jiren actually is, so he may have been at this for centuries to get there (which has interesting implications for Piccolo if he maintains his power growth over several centuries). In any case, the point is he got his power by just working and clawing at it, which honestly deserves some respect. Too bad the rest of his character isn’t nearly as inspiring.

[@itwasntme6833]

Your right, they just need to absorb other Namekians

[@The_One_In_Black]

You say that, but transforming was one of both Piccolo and Slug's best moments. I wonder what Giant Guru would have been like.

[@rexlumontad5644]

3:15 I recall that Saonel and Pilina fused with all of the Universe 6's Namekians to give them a massive boost of power that gave Piccolo and Gohan a hard time before they were defeated. Now that the Tournment of Power is over with all deleted Universes restored, Saonel and Pilina will have to repopulate the Namekian race with new generations of eggs.

[@Bonzothefifth]

Though it’s interesting that these two massive Fused Namekians from U6 were partially felled by a single U7 Namekian of only three (really two if you want to count Kami/Piccolo as a ‘restored’ Namekians rather than a fusion). This is even commented on as they’re defeated in the ToP. We have to remember that Piccolo is a freakishly powerful Namekian compared to the rest of his people. My theory is that this is due to him being a clan hybrid (due to King Piccolo ‘forcing’ his offspring into being both a Warrior clan, but also his own reincarnation, muddying the waters) that brings him closer to the true makeup of Zalama than others, who all seem to have their own set predestined paths. Piccolo doesn’t explore the path of magic and divine power himself in the series, but I think much of that comes from choice and lack of proper training rather than not having the ability. Clothes Beam, for example, seems like a very non-Warrior clan power. His telepathy may also derive from this (though I may just not be remembering if that’s ever established as a general species trait or just with a subset of them). In any case, it could all lead to interesting results if he ever underwent God Ki and/or UI training.

[@niveshrohan1829]

I want to interject here, they specifically said they fused with THOSE WHO VOLUNTEERED I'm sure they probably had like 100 of them left for the purpose of repopulating I dont think everyone volunteered they would've thought ahead.

I'm under the impression they fused with other Warrior types. So there should be plenty of Dragon clan members left.

[@rosesweetcharlotte]

@@Bonzothefifth We know the the Nameless Namek was always super powerful, but the question is why? Did his father Katas do something to him?

[@nicodalusong149]

Now this makes me think about what happens if namekians reproduced, made all of their offspring train, fuse them all together and recycled the process a few more times and then have the fused offspring from the last batch fuse with the original namekian. Would you have a super powerful namekian or something? On that note, were the rules for how powers works in namekian fusion explained before? Was it just a+b=c or was it axb=c?

[@furukawa.studios]

Something that I'm curious about are the Namekian Eggs - Can Namekians spawn eggs at any given time or is it only when they're on the verge of death do they reproduce?

[@HSuper_Lee]

It's implied in the Namek saga that they can do it at other times, since Guru apparently spawned everyone else on Namek.

[@rosesweetcharlotte]

Guru had over a hundred sons. But between him and Demon King Piccolo, it's implied that having so many sons can be quite exhausting and even debilitating since the Namekian is using his own life force to do it. Plus, you know, having kids is hard, so I can see why we don't see Namekians just vomiting up kids whenever.

And more to the point interesting lores to flesh out for various cultures throughout the Dragon Ball universe or...multiverse really.

[@MisterRorschach90]

Namekians achieved god status long before any relevant monkey did. Frieza was able to blow up planet vegeta in seconds without a shred of effort, yet it took him hundreds of times longer (millions if you go by episode time) to blow up planet namek. Namekians mastered fusion king before any relevant monkey did. Namekians mastered powered up attacks capable of outputting many times more energy that someone has access to long before any relevant monkey did. Namekians can also grow into large forms like the monkeys ozuru form, but they are all able to retain their will and intellect. The only monkey shown to do that is vegeta. Oh and namekians have the ability to make someone 5-20x stronger just by touching their head if they come from the dragon clan or whatever it’s called. Now we just need confirmation that popo is a namekian genie guardian that is created by dragon clan members to protect them, and that they are capable of using ultra instinct. And then we need to have a popo vs whis battle where popo wins.

I heavily agree Sayians rely on the strength they are born with and waste there potential. Whenever they meet a powerful enemy they cower. Namekians are warriors and can keep getting better they weren't afraid to stand up to frieza himself plus his men.

You say that like a green slug man with antennae isn't inherently cooler than a dude with spiky hair and a tail.

am i the only one who wants to see shenron and porunga interact? i always kinda liked the namekians more than the saiyans who i feel are starting to run the course(outside goku meeting bardock/gine since bardock caused trouble for granolah,more of broly with cheelai or vegeta's family meeting the u6 saiyans on sadala/them visiting earth i feel super:broly gave us a majority of their story.) and find the recent stuff with them interesting with how piccolo is toriyama's favorite considering his moments.(hope we see more of piccolo in this arc along with the other z fighters in this/future arcs.). actually reminds me of the echidnas in sonic getting focused alongside the adventure games elements.

I love the Namekians I really want to see Piccolo surpass or be at least on par with Goku and Vegeta in a future arc.

As a Piccolo fan, namekians have always been cooler than Saiyans

Piccolo used limb regeneration. Future Gohan looks at his left stump in frustration.

Come on let's get a power boost for piccolo. Maybe he evolves into a humanoid dragon
