Saibamen
| “ | Maybe the Saibamen can persuade them to tell us where the Dragon Balls are. Huh, Nappa? | „ |
| ~ Vegeta about the Saibamen |
Background
Saibamen are a species of small humanoid aliens that are grown from a seed that’s planted in fertile soil, such as the soil of Earth. After a special unknown fluid is poured on the planted Saibamen, they are immediately grown and reach their full strength within a moment. This species serves as a fodder minion to whoever planted it, which is oftentimes a Saiyan Warrior.
Previously used to help them take over a planet, each Saiyan Warrior carries around multiple Saibamen seeds and bulbs of fluid, for their own usage whenever a Saibaman’s power is required. The most notable instance of a pod of Saibamen being grown, is during Nappa and Vegeta’s invasion of planet Earth.
The Saibamen species are animalistic, ruthless and savage creatures, whose only allegiance lies with those who are stronger than them. Even when crippled and defeated, a Saibaman will do whatever it takes to win (or at least not be the only one to lose,) as they will go as far as to resort to clinging to an enemy and self-destructing.
There are multiple different sub-species of Saibamen who are used for multiple different scenarios; the regular Saibamen are green and wield fairly standard battle powers. Kaiwaremen are blue versions of the original, who are much weaker than normal, but come in the plenty. Kyukonmen are yellow and Tennenmen are purple, but both are fairly standard to the average Saibaman’s power. Jinkoumen are grey versions of the original, who are far stronger than the rest.
The final, most unique sub-species of Saibamen, are the Copymen. A Copyman is an extremely rare Saibaman, who is completely jet black in coloration. These Saibamen hold the special abilities of shapeshifting, which also increases their power tremendously; with the ability, they can convincingly shapeshift into other characters, notably having shown to transform into Raditz and First Form Frieza.

Grade: B
Tier: 7-A. Varies-E with Strongest Charged Blast
Cardinality: Finite
Dimensionality: 3-D
Power Source: Ki (All beings in Dragon Ball[1][2][3] have ki, the very life force energy of all characters[4], ki allows a fighter to extend beyond their bodies limits, allowing them to even[5] block attacks that would otherwise[6] kill them from[7] raising their guard[8], higher level users can lower their own durability to allow people far below them to fatally wound them[9])
Attack Potency: Metropolis level (Potency) (The Saibamen's power is comparable to 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[10], putting the blasts power far beyond what their peak strength is[11], allowing them to destroy things they couldn't prior with their regular attacks[12], 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[13], along with stopping an attack shot from Buu absorbed Gotenks[14]. Strongest charged blast can gather ki to shoot out blast far beyond what the character is normally capable of[15], with blasts capable of[16] seriously damaging/destroying[17] the Earth along with completely obliterating the opponent[18]. Charged Blast also rely heavily on emotional states for example Gohan not believing in himself[19] was having Cell overpower him in a beam clash[20])
Durability: Metropolis level, Higher with Guard Up (Ki allows a fighter to extend beyond their bodies limits, allowing them to even block attacks that would otherwise kill them from raising their guard)
Striking Strength: Metropolis Class (Potency)
Lifting Strength: Class 1 (Superior to Early Saiyan Saga Son Goku who is able to barely move around and jump in gravity that multiplies his weight by ten times, where he's naturally 62 kg, thus making him 620 kg on King Kai's planet)
Travel Speed: Superhuman (Superior to Dragon Ball Saga Son Goku)
Attack Speed: High Hypersonic
Reaction Speed: High Hypersonic (Far Beyond 22nd Budokai Son Goku, who could dodge a mouth blast from Tambourine, which he used to tag the flying nimbus where even post King Kai training Goku used the flying nimbus to make it to the saiyans implying it is at least comparable to his flight speed by then, with Goku being capable of traveling over a million of kilometers in two days which results in these speeds. Should be far faster than Mercenary Tao, who stated that a jet would take too long and used his pillar, with fighter jets reaching up to 1000 mph)
Stamina: High (Saibamen are shown to be able to participate in a marathon fight with trained martial artists, although they do clearly get winded at times. They don't have any actual physical training)
Range: Standard Melee, Interstellar with Ki Attacks (Ki attacks can reach out of the planet and to other planets. All ki attacks should be comparable to Goku's kamehameha, which reached all the way to the sun)
Intelligence: Animalistic Intelligence (The Saibamen as a species are each basically mindless slaves, who will follow and listen to whoever grew them. Although they are incredibly powerful, they act more on survival instinct than using martial skill)

Powers and Techniques
- Chi Manipulation & Ki Manipulation (All beings in Dragon Ball[124][125][126] have ki, the very life force energy of all characters[127], ki allows a fighter to extend beyond their bodies limits, allowing them to even[128] block attacks that would otherwise[129] kill them from[130] raising their guard[131], higher level users can lower their own durability to allow people far below them to fatally wound them[132])
- Aura
- Projection: A users ki aura can exert itself[133] as a weapon to attack[134].
- Explosive: Ki users through powering up can form an entire aura around themself, radiating their immense power[135], where depending on their immense strength, can cause them to explode their aura outwards to remove excess ki from themself[136].
- Mood Reflection: Goku and Piccolo Jr. with their auras and their stern concentration on each other reflected in their electric auras, even shooting electricity at each other[137].
- Emotional Empowerment (It's noted that ki users can receive energy through one cheering them on[138]. Ki users can be greatly increased by their emotions and beliefs, Son Goku explains that Son Gohan needs to remember the time he fought Cell and bring out all of the power he has, this way he can lose to no one[139] where it's shown during the Cell beam clash that he was holding back greatly out of fear of destroying the earth but from being cheered on and using all of his power within him, he was able to overpower Cell[140])
- Attack Reflection (All Ki users are able to reflect attacks just by being stronger than their opponent[141]. Examples include, Nappa deflecting a masenko from Son Gohan[142], Son Gohan being able to bounce back the spirit bomb[143], Son Goku deflecting a crusher ball from Jeice[144], Frieza deflecting a Final Burst Cannon from Vegeta[145], Son Goku reflecting multiple death beams back to back from Frieza[146], and Future Trunks being able to completely repel an energy blast with his hand from a Frieza Soldier just by being much stronger than them[147])
- Homing Attack (Ki users can create attacks that will home in and chase a target forever[148])
- Penetration Damage
- Weapon Creation (Ki users can create energy weapons out of their attacks[152])
- Power Absorption & Energy Transferal (Ki users can transfer their ki to others and absorb the ki given to them from others[153])
- Attack Nullification
- Power Nullification
- Ki Energy Based: Through having greater ki, one can nullify the powers done through ki attacks, such as Frieza being able to nullify a hakai ball[157], which fully destroys a target[158], though he is unable to resist a hakai ball from Toppo due to him being stronger[159], this ability however only works on ki, attacks unrelated, characters cannot resist through being stronger, such as how Vegeta, Krillin, & Son Gohan are unable to resist Guldo's psychic powers[160], along with even the likes of Son Goku[161].
- Forcefield Creation (Ki users such as Cell can generate forcefields around themselves[162]. These forcefields can be expanded[163], and used to protect others and defend against attacks far higher then the user[164])
- Super Armor (Through releasing one's ki, they enter a state known as "Hyper Mode"[165], in this state they do not flinch from weak melee attacks[166])
- Self-Destruction (Ki users in Dragon Ball are able to[167] release all of the energy within them[168] to cause a massive[169] self-destruction of energy that normally kills the user and turns them into dust[170] though one can control it to surviving but having no stamina or energy left[171])
- Dormant Power Reservoir (Ki users have a dormant power reservoir within them, as shown in arcs like the Buu Saga where Babidi saps this energy in order to use the energy to revive Buu and break his seal[172])
- Internal Destruction (Powerful ki users can overload enemies with their ki, causing them to swell up and explode from the sheer density of ki within them[173])
- Binding
- Dreaming Existence (Characters in Shin Budokai have shown to create physical bodies in alternate timelines through dreaming[176])
- Non-Standard Interaction
- Intangible Interaction: Those with ki can block intangible attacks when they focus and notices them[177].
- Space-Time Interaction (3+1-D): Characters can blast space-time distortions to close them[178].
- Healing
- Healing Singular Targets
- Advanced Healing: Ki can be used to heal beings, allowing them to survive even with half their torso[179], it can also heal from near death[180].
- Healing Singular Targets
- Resurrection
- Resurrection of the Deceased (Limited): Ki users can resurrect ones heart from death if their ki beams hit their heart, restarting it[181].
- Resurrection from Exhaustion: Can heal downed allies to give them ki back, reviving them[182])
- Intimidation & Spirit Manipulation (Ki is the manifestation of one’s lifeforce[183], along with the aura giving one the feeling of being crushed[184], exerting fear[185] into the target, sometimes making them incapable of moving as their[186] body is instinctively stuck due to the sheer difference in power[187])
- Link Manipulation & Mind Manipulation (Characters can link their ki together and train within each other’s mind enacting in image training[188])
- Vibration Manipulation
- Electricity Manipulation
- Weather Manipulation (Powerful Ki users can generate entire storms through merely powering up alone, Nappa used this in order to conjure the electricity from the storm[193]. Goku showcases this when he first turns super saiyan, causing a massive lightning storm in the background[194])
- Energy Manipulation (Ki is the latent power in one's body, this latent power allows them to form and create energy from controlling their ki, which can be used to shoot out energy blast[195])
- Explosion Manipulation (Ki attacks can create massive explosions[197], or control the ki to set off a huge explosion under the enemy[198], or in front of them[199])
- Portal Manipulation
- Non-combat applicable: Characters in GT can link their minds together to open a portal between the living realm and the other world[200].
- Heat Manipulation
- Light Manipulation (Ki can be used as a flash of light[204][205][206][207][208][209][210][211][212], Degisu seeing ki attacks be fired notes that the characters are "firing light from their hands"[213]).
- Limited Resistance to
- Durability Negation (Ki users can focus their energy to localize an object to a specific spot to stop them from attempting to destroy their organs/insides[214])
- Soul Manipulation (Characters with a strong enough will can keep moving after getting their soul reaped, though this requires something akin to a familial or friendship empowerment)
- Superhuman Physical Characteristics
- Skilled in Hand to Hand Combat (A Saibaman can contend with Yamcha, a trained martial artist)
- Acrobatics
- Flight
- Enhanced Senses
- Self-Destruction (Saibaman can detonate themselves)
- Fusionism (Saibamen can perform the Fusion Dance)
- Acid Manipulation (Saibaman can produce acid)
- Paralysis Inducement (A Saibaman’s Acid can paralyze enemies)
All previous abilities.
- Transformation (Shapeshifting) and Statistics Amplification (Copymen can shapeshift into both Raditz and Frieza; doing so increases its power)
Notable Techniques
- Flight: With a mastery of Ki control, Dabura is able to fly at incredibly high speeds.
- Ki Blast: Using Ki, Dabura can concentrate it into a ball that he uses as a projectile attack.
- Acid: Splitting open its head, the Saibamen is able to spray a jet of deadly acid from within it, powerful enough to melt huge masses of land.
- Saibabeam: The Saibaman fires a green beam of energy from its head.
- Saibaman Bomb: Clinging onto an enemy as hard as it can, the Saibaman glows bright before self-destructing in a massive explosion.
- Shapeshifting: Specific ability to a Copyman. The Copymen is able to completely shapeshift itself into a convincing mimic of someone else, which also increases its power. Copymen have only shown to shapeshift into Raditz and First Form Frieza.
Other
Standard Tactics: Saibamen will employ hand to hand combat along with attacks where they spit out acid. They will also attempt to self-destruct if the opponent is too strong for them.
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[216], 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[217]. 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[218] and can speed up the process of poison[219]. 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[220]. 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[221]. 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[222]. 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[223]. Ki users cannot put all of their ki and strength into an attack if parts of their body are broken/injured[224][225], they also lose half of their chi if something like one of their arms are badly injured or broken[226].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[227]. Despite some ki users being able to reach blasts that can destroy planets through charged attacks or techniques[228][229][230][231], they have not shown to be able to tank such blasts themselves[232][233][234], with attacks that have[235] destroyed several[236] planets in the series[237] always killing the character. Even characters such as Majin Buu's body cannot withstand the energy of a planet exploding[238]. 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[239]. Even if awoken, they are immobilized and unable to move without the possessor giving them the ability to[240], even with them wanting to wake up, they cannot do it[241]. Specific waves can can suppress a ki users power, and put their consciousness to sleep[242]. 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[243], 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[244]. Ki Users can also be grabbed out of charging their attacks[245]. 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[246].
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[247].
- 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.
Explanations
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[248], with blasts capable of[249] seriously damaging/destroying[250] the Earth along with completely obliterating the opponent[251], though they themselves are never capable of leaving this unscathed.
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[252] . 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[253]. Goku's kamehameha was going to destroy the earth and Cell cannot tank this blast, needing to regenerate[254]. Semi-Perfect Cell explosion was consistently noted it was going to destroy the planet and Gohan and it killed Goku[255]. Ultimate Gohan dies to an attack that destroys the earth, his guard was up too since this was when he was fighting Super Buu[256]. 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[257]. 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[258]. Frieza destroyed the entire earth, killing Vegeta in the process[259]. 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[260]. 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[261].
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[262].
- Original DBZ Anime Version[263]. 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.
