“	You are not my grandpa! I've got stuffed animals at home bigger than you!	„
	~ Pan after discovering Son Goku turned into a kid

“

I'm tired of everyone treating me like a little kid.

„

“

Wait a sec. These look like the same clothes Grandpa was wearing before he went off with Shenron.

„

“

You think you can get rid of me that easily? This old gal's not ready to kick the back yet.

Background

Pan is the granddaughter of Earth's hero, Son Goku and the world champion, Mr. Satan and the deuteragonist of Dragon Ball GT. Her heritage is primarily Earthling, being the offspring of the Saiyan-Earthling hybrid Son Gohan and the Earthling Videl, thus making her a quarter-Saiyan. She's been stated to have inherited Gohan's great potential.

This dropdown contains the synopsis of Pan’s story. Read at your own risk as you may be spoiled otherwise!

Peaceful World Saga Pan is shown in Dragon Ball Z at the age of four. In her infancy, she spent a lot of time with Goku, so she trained a lot. When she was 4 years old, she was already regularly flying around the world, and attempting to beat her best times. Before the official start of the 28th tournament, she also accompanied Goku to fairgrounds, although after an incident where a punk knocked her and her ice cream over and then rudely flipped her off, she nearly threw a tantrum until Goku provided her with another ice cream. Though very young at age four, she is well trained by her grandfather, Goku, as she effortlessly defeats Wild Tiger, a large, muscular man, with just two punches that knock him straight into a wall during the 28th World Martial Arts Tournament. On the closing scenes of the Dragon Ball Z anime, she is fighting Goten and appears to have won, as Trunks holds her hand up in victory (this was presumably not an official match, as indicated by the "Canceled" sign above the outside of the arena, the concept that the crowd was departing and Trunks being the referee).

Goten and Trunks’s individual powers were even enough to terrify her. Android #18 herself was able to defeat Super Saiyans without trouble; making her far above the likes of Nappa who casually destroyed a city and stood within the blast without having any damage, and Raditz who can cause explosions dwarfing the mountains, which results in these levels of energy). Varies: Skill with Strongest Charged Blast (Charged Blast have one focus all of their energy into one single point, putting the blasts power far beyond what their peak strength is, allowing them to destroy things they couldn't prior with their regular attacks, this also allows them to use charged attacks that can stop enemies far beyond their level, such as Tien Shinhan pushing back Semi-Perfect Cell with his Neo Ki-Ko-Ho, along with stopping an attack shot from Buu absorbed Gotenks. Strongest charged blast can gather ki to shoot out blast far beyond what the character is normally capable of, with blasts capable of seriously damaging/destroying the Earth along with completely obliterating the opponent. Charged Blast also rely heavily on emotional states for example Gohan not believing in himself was having Cell overpower him in a beam clash) | Island level (Potency) (Pan briefly caught surprise of and harmed General Rilldo who has ki even greater then Buu's, with this feat shocking both Son Goku and Trunks, having Trunks even note that she may even be stronger than him. As she can harm someone superior to Buu, she should be above Semi-Perfect Cell, who destroyed several islands with several blast.

Equipment

• Turtle School Uniform: A Gi worn by Pan as a child which she acquired from her grandfather Goku.

• Dragon Radar: An invention of Bulma made to track down Dragon Balls. While Goku and other people can sense the Dragon Balls' energy in a general area, the Dragon Radar can pinpoint their exact location from across the entire planet. This let Goku and his friends track all the Dragon Balls within days rather than years, or hours with teleportation.

• Gill: Gill, originally known as T2006 or DB4649T2006RS, is a Machine Mutant that accompanies Goku, Pan, and Trunks on their quest to find the Black Star Dragon Balls. After eating the Dragon Radar, the radar itself appears on Giru's back.

Notable Techniques

TechniquesForms

• Flight: The ability to fly through the use of ki. Pan was able to fly as an infant without any formal training, but forgot how to consciously do at some point afterwards. At the end of the events of Super Hero, she relearned how to fly and can do so at will.

• Ki Blast: The most basic form of energy wave.

• Kamehameha: A powerful Ki blast fired with two hands after concentrating a large amount of Ki.
  • Multiple Kamehameha: Two or more fighters fire multiple Kamehamehas simultaneously at a single point. This usually causes their separate Kamehamehas to merge into one giant Kamehameha blast at the opponent.
    • Galaxy Tri Attack: A team attack where Goku, Pan, and Trunks fly in with Trunks hitting the opponent with a kick followed by a punch from Goku, then a kick from Pan before they finish the opponent off together with a Multiple Kamehameha. Used by Goku, Pan, and Trunks as their Ultimate Super Attack in Dokkan Battle.
    • Grandfather-Granddaughter Kamehameha: First, Pan and Goku each prepare their own Kamehameha attacks. Then, they both fire them at the same time so that the two energy waves merge into one giant Kamehameha blast at the opponent, inflicting a massive amount of damage.

• Full Power Energy Wave: Pan starts by charging an energy sphere in their hands. Then, she draws her hands forward and fire the energy sphere in the form of an energy wave at the opponent, inflicting a great amount of damage.

• Maiden's Rage: First, Pan brings her hands down at her sides and charges yellow energy spheres. Then, she draws them together in front to fire them in the form of an energy wave at the opponent, inflicting a high amount of damage.
  • Reliable Friend: First, Pan punches her opponent up into the air and flies after them. Then, Giru appears in front of Pan and says "Giru to save Pan! Giru! Giru!" to which Pan replies with, "Thanks, Giru!" Next, Giru flies at the opponent and dodges all of their punches while Pan charges yellowish-orange energy spheres in both of her hands in fashion similar to her Maiden's Rage and says "Here goes!" Finally, when Giru flies away from the opponent, the opponent turns around at Pan, who blasts them with many reddish-orange energy spheres fired from her hands, inflicting a massive amount of damage.

• Invisible Eye Blast: A Kiai technique shot from the eyes.

• Masenko: The attack is performed by the user placing both hands above the head with the palms facing the target and one hand in front of the other with the fingers going in opposite directions. When the user thrusts their hands forward, they call the name and fire a beam of yellow, white, or orange energy.

• Explosive Wave: A technique where the user bursts out ki from all over their body in order to repel the opponents around them.
  • Maiden's Burst: Pan screams and releases a large amount of energy from her entire body to knock an opponent back. After performing the attack she does a "striking pose", similar to her father.

• Spirit Attack: A blue blast of energy fired from both hands used by Pan. Named and used in the Dragon Ball Z Collectible Card Game.

• Spirit Shot: A sparkling yellow energy ball with a pink outline. Named and used in the Dragon Ball Z Collectible Card Game.

• Honey Bee Costume: During her adventures on Monmaasu, Pan finds a cute Bee costume which she wears during the episode "Like Pulling Teeth". Though the costume does little to conceal Pan's humanoid appearance it manages to fool the giant bees of Monmaasu into mistaking Pan for their queen causing them to kidnap her. Fortunately, Goku and Trunks rescue the real queen bee from a giant spider web. In Dragon Ball Z: Dokkan Battle, the costume appears as a playable form called Pan (GT) (Honey) which can be acquired through the Bonus Event: "Pan's Secret Adventure".

Other

Standard Tactics: Pan will use hand to hand fighting along with ki attacks.

Weaknesses

• Standard Ki Weaknesses: Ki users that do not have sufficient training over their emotions put their power within a mental lock, thus affects to their emotions can seriously limit their powers, their emotions can also have them instinctively block using the full power of their attacks out of fear of the destruction along with lack of confidence in themselves. If a Ki user is inflicted with any kind of status, disease, or poison, powering up or transforming will put further strain on the body and can speed up the process of poison. Users of Ki Sensing cannot sense beings that invisible, even if the character is in front of them attacking them, they have a hard time countering them due to being invisible. Users of Ki Sensing also have a harder time sensing the true being using illusions, requiring them to focus in on energy fields to see who is moving and who is casting the illusion. Due to the nature of ki draining stamina and energy, Dragon Ball characters ki usage requires them to usually use their higher levels of energy in short bursts, using a large amount of ki overtime can greatly weaken them to the point that characters far lower then them can actually harm them with attacks. Taking large amounts of damage can greatly deplete a ki users attacks, making it where attacks that would otherwise kill massively weakened characters, only pushes them back. Ki users cannot put all of their ki and strength into an attack if parts of their body are broken/injured, they also lose half of their chi if something like one of their arms are badly injured or broken.Ki users that are able to ki sense cannot do it when their guard is dropped, such as when Vegeta was able to sneak attack Son Goku during the end of their fight in the Buu Saga. Despite some ki users being able to reach blasts that can destroy planets through charged attacks or techniques, they have not shown to be able to tank such blasts themselves, with attacks that have destroyed several planets in the series always killing the character. Even characters such as Majin Buu's body cannot withstand the energy of a planet exploding. Using ki volley attacks come with the caveat of their aim being rather poor, making it harder to hit moving targets. If ki users are at all possessed, even by accident, their true self will be sleeping within, with the possessor needing to awaken them. Even if awoken, they are immobilized and unable to move without the possessor giving them the ability to, even with them wanting to wake up, they cannot do it. Specific waves can can suppress a ki users power, and put their consciousness to sleep. If Ki users stamina is broken, they will unable to be able to continue fighting for a short while, this will also cancel out any ki attack they were attempting to use, including ultimate's, this also adds on that ki users guards are down while charging ultimate attacks. Their stamina can also be broken if a character moves far too fast and surprise attacks them while they're charging their ki. Ki Users can also be grabbed out of charging their attacks. When ki users radiate their Ki at its highest, their body is also freed the most, making them open to attacks and making them easy to possess.
• Unique Weaknesses: Has shown to be quick to temper, leading her to make rash decisions that can mess with her allies in a fight.

Note

• Some clips used on the profile come from an anime or movie due to the fact that some abilities from ki use shouldn't function much differently from how they can in canon, along with this sometimes the anime version/video game version of a scene will be used for cleaner visuals. Toriyama himself directly overlooks scenes in the anime and movies and gives Toei the thumbs up.
• The speed scaling for PLs are taken with a grain of salt as there are noticeable times where someone's speed isn't equal to their power, such as Burter being faster then Recoome and Jeice, along with Super Saiyan Grade 3 Trunks having his power greatly increased but his speed decreased.

Trivia

• Pan's name is the Japanese word for bread, which in turn comes from the Portuguese word "pão" also meaning bread. It continues the food-based names of Gohan's family.
  • Coincidentally, Pan is also the name of a Greek deity who was associated with the Devil due to his goat legs. Thus, Pan's name also continues the family naming traditions of her mother and grandfather.
  • Pan could also refer to pan pipes, an instrument often attributed to said Greek deity, thus making the name a tribute to Piccolo.
• Pan is the first offspring of a Saiyan-Earthling hybrid (Gohan) and an Earthling (Videl) making her the first 1/4-Saiyan 3/4-Earthling. Additionally she is also the first female Saiyan-Earthling hybrid as she was born a year before Bulla who was the first female 1/2-Saiyan 1/2-Earthling hybrid. Interestingly, her father Gohan was the first 1/2-Saiyan 1/2-Earthling and first male Saiyan-Earthling hybrid born, as well as the only Saiyan-Earthling hybrid to be born with a tail.
• So far, Pan is the youngest female character in Dragon Ball history to have the ability to fly, having done so as an infant. However she shares this trait with Turbo Norimaki, who was the youngest male character capable of Flight as an infant in both Dragon Ball and Dr. Slump. However Pan is shown to be a more advanced flyer as she produces a visible aura when flying while Turbo uses it for simple levitation.
• In the original Japanese subtitled version of the FUNimation DVD, Goku Jr. is said to be Pan's great-great grandson, instead of her grandson. Since Pan would have been at least 100 when he was born, this would make much more sense considering the huge age gap between the two, giving more room for the other generations. This also decreases the Saiyan blood in him, though, he is still able to transform refuting the idea that Pan's lack of a Super Saiyan transformation was due to her Saiyan blood being diluted (which would not make sense as Goku Jr. and Vegeta Jr. have even less Saiyan blood than Pan, yet both can transform). Another strange fact is that while Pan lacks the Son surname that all her paternal relatives (except Chi-Chi) possess, her great-great grandson is referred to as Son Goku Jr., which is not possible (even if Pan did use the surname, after all), as that would mean whichever parent that Goku Jr. inherited his last name from would have inherited it from Pan, who would be their great grandmother. It is however possible that they merely stuck the surname to the boy for his similarity to his ancestor.
• In "Dragon Ball Super Episode 9", when the others learn of Videl's pregnancy, Chi-Chi suggests they name Pan "Gomen" (which is both the puns on the Son boys "Go" and noodles "men"). However, this was before Chi-Chi or anyone knew the child's gender and was just a suggestion to Gohan and Videl.
• Pan appears with Goku, Trunks and Giru in a chapter of the Dr. Slump sequel series, Dr. Slump Returns.
• In Xenoverse 2, if the Future Warrior is a Saiyan while training under Pan she may ask them "If I trained really hard, do you think I could transform into a Super Saiyan, too? Wouldn't I look super cute with blonde hair? Look at that reaction! You totally want to see it!" This indicates she wishes to one day attain the form herself.
  • Ironically, in the Xenoverse series, if Pan's Bandana is worn by Female Saiyans (which causes their hair style and color to match Pan's) and a Super Saiyan or Super Saiyan 2 transformation is used, the hair will turn golden blonde, despite Pan having yet to achieve the transformation herself.
    • Interestingly, in the latest patch of Xenoverse 2, the hair on Pan's Bandana no longer turns blonde, instead simply glowing like other wigs.
  • It should be noted that Daizenshuu 7 and Dragon Ball GT: Perfect File both state that Pan and Bulla have the potential to attain the transformation if the proper conditions are met, such as the arrival of the evilest dangers. The main reason why she and Bulla never did was Akira Toriyama that at the time couldn't figure out how to draw female Super Saiyans (this was before female Super Saiyans appeared in official Dragon Ball media such as video games as well the appearance of Caulifla and Kale in Dragon Ball Super) which is the main reason why Pan and Bulla lack Super Saiyan forms despite both possessing the potential to do so. However, given the appearance of female Super Saiyans now, it is possible that she may acquire the transformation at some point in the future.
• In Xenoverse 2, Pan expresses interest in performing fusion with the Future Warrior twice once during conversation. After the 1.09.00 Update, she wants to try her hand at Fusion Dance, though is apprehensive about fusing and decides she and the Future Warrior should work on combining their attacks first resulting in her teaching them her Dual Ultimate Attack skill instead. However even after filling her Partner Gauge there is still no fusion between the two, indicating she presumably got cold feet, fusion between them was too difficult, and/or she found the fusion dance poses too embarrassing.
  • In Dragon Ball Fusions, Pan can utilize the Fusion Dance to perform EX-Fusion while wearing a Metamo-Ring. Though she herself complains about having to perform the fusion dance poses for both EX-Fusion and Five-Way Fusion (however ironically she smiles while performing either of them) as she finds them uncool and embarrassing which fits with her dislike of posing in general. Presumably she puts up with it for the sake of the power of those fusions provide.
• In Future Trunks' timeline, Pan does not exist due to the fact that her parents never met, her father Future Gohan was killed by the Androids, and the fate of her mother Future Videl in that timeline is unclear.
  • In Xenoverse 2, Pan meets Future Gohan in a special event where see mistakes him for his counterpart though he tells her she is mistaken and neither realize their relation. Humorously, Pan considers him cooler than her dad and notes that she wishes her father were more like him.
• In World Mission, it is revealed that Beat is a descendant of Goku's though it isn't specified whether he is descended from Gohan or Goten's family lines thus it is unclear if Beat is a direct descendant of Pan's (as she is Gohan's only known child) or blood relative if he is descended from her Uncle Goten's family line.

Explanations

Before discussing anything regarding planetary, cosmic tier, etcetera Dragon Ball, please do read the full explanation page.

Codex Statistics Questions

Q: What about the planetary feats in Dragon Ball?

A: Planetary feats are normally done through their strongest charged blast, where they can gather ki to shoot out blast far beyond what the character is normally capable of, with blasts capable of seriously damaging/destroying the Earth along with completely obliterating the opponent, though they themselves are never capable of leaving this unscathed.

ExamplesNon-Planetary Showings

Frieza throws a destroy the planet death ball attack but it doesn't destroy the planet. Goku then interestingly notes the reason the planet didn't blow up is because Frieza was too scared of getting caught in the blast . Vegeta's final flash is noted it's going to destroy the planet and Perfect Cell, who is beyond Vegeta, couldn't tank the blast and had to dodge it last second or it would've killed him. Goku's kamehameha was going to destroy the earth and Cell cannot tank this blast, needing to regenerate. Semi-Perfect Cell explosion was consistently noted it was going to destroy the planet and Gohan and it killed Goku. Ultimate Gohan dies to an attack that destroys the earth, his guard was up too since this was when he was fighting Super Buu. Kid Buu shoots a blast trying to destroy the planet, with Vegeta noting he's going to take himself out with it if he lets it off. In Dragon Ball GT, Great Ape Baby Vegeta shoots a super galick gun that he claims will destroy Earth, when Goku is hit by it, he is knocked out to the point that he can't move for a good while, Elder Kai and Shin later state that Baby is going to shoot another blast that will destroy the planet on, greatly injuring Baby if he's caught in the Blast and will kill everyone on the planet if done. Frieza destroyed the entire earth, killing Vegeta in the process. In the Dragon Ball Super Manga, Gohan tells Goku that he doesn't need to hold anything back and can go all out because anything that happens to the Earth can be restored with Dende and the Dragon Balls. Yet, none of Goku's all out attacks destroy the planet but just heavily causes shockwaves around it. Semi-Perfect Cell unleashes a several blast that destroys several islands Android 16 notes that the attacks are just strong enough to not kill Android 18.

In the fight of Trunks vs. Mecha Frieza, who is far stronger than his final form, Mecha Frieza immediately goes for his strongest attack, the Supernova. In the original Z anime King Kai even states this is ten times stronger than the power he used on Namek:

• DBZ Kai Version.
• Original DBZ Anime Version. The attack is directly noted that it could destroy the planet, but doesn't because Trunks catches it, when Mecha Frieza proceeds to detonate it, the explosion is massive but the planet is still intact, implying Frieza must target the core in order to destroy the planet.
