A users ki aura can exert itself as a weapon to attack), Attack Reflection (All Ki users are able to reflect attacks just by being stronger than their opponent. Examples include, Nappa deflecting a masenko from Son Gohan, Son Gohan being able to bounce back the spirit bomb, Son Goku deflecting a crusher ball from Jeice, Frieza deflecting a Final Burst Cannon from Vegeta, Son Goku reflecting multiple death beams back to back from Frieza, 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), Homing Attack (Ki users can create attacks that will home in and chase a target forever), Power Absorption & Transferal (Ki users can transfer their ki to others and absorb the ki given to them from others), Aura (He can surround himself in an aura of Ki.

They can also catch and nullify ki attacks around their level through focusing enough. Power Nullification; Through having greater ki, one can nullify the powers done through ki attacks, such as Frieza being able to nullify a hakai ball, which fully destroys a target, though he is unable to resist a hakai ball from Toppo due to him being stronger, 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, along with even the likes of Son Goku), Forcefield Creation (Ki users such as Cell can generate forcefields around themselves. These forcefields can be expanded, and used to protect others and defend against attacks far higher then the user), Super Armor (Through releasing one's ki, they enter a state known as "Hyper Mode", in this state they do not flinch from weak melee attacks), Self-Destruction (Ki users in Dragon Ball are able to release all of the energy within them to cause a massive self-destruction of energy that normally kills the user and turns them into dust though one can control it to surviving but having no stamina or energy left), Light Manipulation (Ki can be used as a flash of light), Dreaming Existence (Characters in Shin Budokai have shown to create physical bodies in alternate timelines through dreaming), Non-Standard Interaction (Intangible Interaction; Those with ki can block intangible attacks when they focus and notices them.

Though this Hercules boasts are true, he should still have his canon counterpart's mastery of lying and cheating, convincing the entire world that he is their savior on two separate occasions), Preparation (Mr. Satan comes to fights prepared with different ways of harming or killing the opponent outside of his brute strength), Transformation (Partial Transformation; Can enter a state known as "high tension" where he is far more powerful), Explosion Manipulation (With Dynamite Kick, causes explosions with each kick.

Equipment

• 45-Calibre Gun: Mr. Satan used his handgun in attempt to stop Super Buu's Finger Beam, and believed he did so when Tien Shinhan obliterated the ball with his Tri-Beam technique without Satan noticing this. He also uses it against Merus in self-defense when trying to stop the Galactic Patrol from taking Good Buu, but Merus shoots the bullets down with his Ray Gun. He also uses it in Dragon Ball Z: Shin Butōden to cheat in the Satan Mode, and in the Legacy of Goku series to replace the Ki Blasts the other playable characters can use. Appears in Dragon Ball Fusions as one of Mr. Satan's Special Moves under the name .45 Gun.

• Poison: Among the various items Mr. Satan utilized in his attempts to kill Innocent Buu.
  • Fancy Chocolates! Help yourself!: A box of high quality gourmet chocolate which Mr. Satan secretly laced with poison. Given to Innocent Buu during one of Mr. Satan's covert attempts to kill the Majin. Unfortunately, Majin Buu's digestive system is easily able to handle the toxin, resulting in Innocent Buu suffering no ill effects.

• Present For You: Mr. Satan dashes towards his opponent, stops at the last second, hands his opponent a giftwrapped box (which contains a handheld video game console and game), and then he runs off as his opponent is distractedly playing the portable game.

• Jetpack: A piece of equipment used by Mr. Satan to fly without the use of ki.

Other

Standard Tactics: Mr. Satan will use martial arts techniques along with his dynamite kick attack or "Present for You!".

Weaknesses

• 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.

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

• In Dragon Ball Z: Budokai, during The Legend of Mr. Satan mode, he remarks that Piccolo resembles the evil King Piccolo, indicating that he was present during his attempts of world domination, or is at least aware of him.
