Yamcha was born on March | Yamcha was born on March 20, Age 733. He became a bandit of the Diablo Desert, and lived off of the resources he would pillage from people passing by. Because of this, he developed very powerful fighting techniques and martial arts skill, as well as a hardened personality; curiously, though, he always dreamed of marriage, and would be paralyzed at just the sight of a woman. | ||
At the age of 14, Yamcha met his companion, the shape-shifting cat Puar, and the two would soon become lifelong friends. Puar became Yamcha’s partner in crime for the next two years, until they crossed paths with a young Saiyan named Goku, and his companions Bulma and Oolong. Although Yamcha was at first simply wanting to rob the crew, Goku’s resilience and Bulma’s appearance kept him at bay. The bandit eventually developed feelings for Bulma, as she did for him. | At the age of 14, Yamcha met his companion, the shape-shifting cat Puar, and the two would soon become lifelong friends.

*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.

*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. | |||

Background
Yamcha is a major supporting protagonist of the Dragon Ball series, serving as the first martial artist friend and rival of Son Goku. Initially starting as a bandit alongside his shapeshifting partner, Puar, Yamcha later joined Goku's journey and reformed himself. Having trained with accomplished mentors such as Master Roshi, Kami, and King Kai, Yamcha is an accomplished martial artist and defender of Earth.
This dropdown contains the synopsis of Yamcha’s story. Read at your own risk as you may be spoiled otherwise! |
---|
Yamcha was born on March 20, Age 733. He became a bandit of the Diablo Desert, and lived off of the resources he would pillage from people passing by. Because of this, he developed very powerful fighting techniques and martial arts skill, as well as a hardened personality; curiously, though, he always dreamed of marriage, and would be paralyzed at just the sight of a woman. At the age of 14, Yamcha met his companion, the shape-shifting cat Puar, and the two would soon become lifelong friends. Puar became Yamcha’s partner in crime for the next two years, until they crossed paths with a young Saiyan named Goku, and his companions Bulma and Oolong. Although Yamcha was at first simply wanting to rob the crew, Goku’s resilience and Bulma’s appearance kept him at bay. The bandit eventually developed feelings for Bulma, as she did for him. Yamcha would go on to trail the crew, with the hopes of finally being able to steal from them and return home, although he found himself, more often than not, coming to their aid. Eventually, with how many times he fought alongside Goku’s crew, he teamed up with them, making Yamcha the first member of Goku’s Dragon Team. Yamcha would go on to participate in several World Martial Arts Tournaments, and found tutelage under the legendary Turtle Hermit, Master Roshi. Soon enough, Yamcha became a formidable opponent and one of the most powerful humans on the entire planet, with his power skyrocketing in order to keep pace with his peers. Unfortunately, however, his relationship was shaky; Bulma mistook his nervousness around women for disloyalty, and the two would eventually split up. However, despite this, Yamcha still remained a loyal, caring, and charismatic friend. He’s suffered several defeats, namely when he lost his life during the Saiyan invasion on Earth, but continued pushing forwards in his martial arts expertise. No matter how outclassed he felt himself getting, he would continue to do what he could, including joining the Cell Games. Yamcha also went on to follow his true passion, and become a worldwide professional baseball player. Although even with a career in baseball keeping him busy, he will always be there if the Earth is threatened. |

Due to Goku and Bulma fighting as forces of good, Yamcha has found himself training and fighting to protect others as well, although he still advocates for personal freedom) | Chaotic Good | Neutral Good (Having been fully ingrained into the Z Fighters as a trusted and reliable fighter and friend, Yamcha no longer seeks the stark individuality that he once did as a bandit.

- Gi (Turtle School): The orange Gi that Yamcha usually wears, which was given to him during his time under Master Roshi’s tutelage. It has the insignia of the Turtle School on it.

- Weighted Clothing: This is clothing that Yamcha wears under his usual Gi, much like Goku does. They have built-in weights, specifically made for training, so that Yamcha can move much faster when they’re removed.
Notable Techniques
- Flight: With a mastery of Ki control, Yamcha is able to fly at incredibly high speeds.
- Ki Blast: Using Ki, Yamcha can concentrate it into a ball that he uses as a projectile attack.
- Ki Sense: Yamcha is able to detect lifeforms and power levels from far off.
- Wolf Fang Fist: Yamcha’s most famous attack, which sees him do a barrage of claw swipes and punches, before finishing by sending the opponent hurtling with a palm strike and a howl.
- Blinding Wolf Fang Fist: Yamcha charges at the foe and kicks them high into the air, before charging power in his palms and rushing at them and blasting right through them.
- Neo Wolf Fang Fist: A much more powerful version of the Wolf Fang Fist, which is amplified in power by his Ki.
- Kamehameha: The iconic move coined by Master Roshi, which Yamcha has adopted for himself. This starts as a blue Ki ball, which is charged in Yamcha’s hands before releasing as an incredibly powerful beam.
- Super Kamehameha: This is an amplified version of the Kamehameha which has a larger and more devastating beam, which Yamcha uses by first bolstering his Ki.
- Spirit Ball: One of Yamcha’s original attacks, which has him hold out his hand facing upwards and form a large yellow Ki ball within it. He then launches this at the enemy, and can control its trajectory completely with the movement of his hands.
- Super Spirit Ball: Called an “Extra Large Spirit Ball” by Yamcha himself, this is simply a larger and more powerful version of the original, which he uses when his Ki is bolstered.
- Fusion Dance: This is a technique that Yamcha learned, which allows him to temporarily fuse bodies with another who performs the dance. Usually he does this with Tien.

- Standard Ki Weaknesses: 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. Despite some ki users being able to reach to higher tiers such as planetary through charged attacks or techniques, they have not shown to be able to tank planets themself being destroyed, 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 plant exploding.
- Unique Weaknesses: Yamcha used to have a horrible fear of women that would immediately paralyze him upon seeing, although he’s since gotten over it. However, he maintains a certain overconfidence against enemies he views as weaker, which can lead to his eventual loss.
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[11].
- 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.
