Background

Soba is a Yardrat who appears exclusively in Dragon Ball Z: Sagas. Soba fights Goku just before he takes off for Earth, assisted by a number of Yaki, but Goku eventually defeats him.

Statistics

Tier: At least High 5-B

Name: Soba

Dimensionality: 3-D

Attack Potency: At least Large Planet level (Soba has a power level of 14,000,000 while 100% final form Frieza has a power level of 12,000,000, putting him far beyond first form Frieza who destroyed Planet Vegeta which has ten times the gravity of Earth, requiring a GBE of this level to overcome)

Durability: At least Large Planet level

Striking Strength: At least Large Planet Class

Lifting Strength: Class M, likely Higher (Superior to Namek Saga Super Saiyan Son Goku, where the super saiyan transformation increases him by 50 times, putting him at this level. Superior to King Piccolo Saga Goku, who fused his untapped potential with the Oozaru within him, making his power tenfold above his previous self who moved a giant boulder with a lot of effort)

Travel Speed: Massively Hypersonic+ (Comparable to Super Saiyan Son Goku on Namek, who previously in his base form traveled from Frieza's ship over to Vegeta in this timeframe)

Combat Speed: FTL

Reaction Speed: At least FTL, likely Higher (Far beyond 22nd Budokai Son Goku, who could avoid a point blank laser beam, could avoid the Kamehameha which could reach the moon in a very shot timeframe, along with tagging someone who could react to a Kamehameha)

Stamina: Superhuman (Can fight with Super Saiyan Goku for a considerable amount of time without tiring)

Range: Standard Melee Range, 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), Cross-Universal with Instant Transmission (Instant Transmission. Can forcibly send his opponent to other places such as heaven)

Intelligence: Unknown


Powers and Abilities

Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Hand to Hand Combatant (Can fight against Goku with his own fighting techniques), Teleportation & Dimensional BFR (Type 1. Instant Transmission is a technique native to the Yardrats. Can forcibly send his opponent to other places such as heaven), Summoning (Can summon mini Yardrats), Chi Manipulation & Ki Manipulation (All beings in Dragon Ball have ki, the very life force energy of all characters, 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, higher level users can lower their own durability to allow people far below them to fatally wound them. 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), Mind Manipulation (Characters can link their ki together and train within each other’s mind enacting in image training), Power Absorption & Transferal (Ki users can transfer their ki to others and absorb the ki given to them from others), Aura (Has an aura of ki surrounding him whenever he exerts ki), Vibration Manipulation (Powerful ki users can cause the very ground itself to shake when they power up), Intimidation, Soul Manipulation & Pain Manipulation (Ki is the manifestation of one’s lifeforce, along with the aura giving one the feeling of being crushed, exerting fear into the target, sometimes making them incapable of moving as their body is instinctively stuck due to the sheer difference in power), 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), Explosion Manipulation (Ki attacks can create massive explosions, control the ki to set off a huge explosion under the enemy, or in front of them), Heat Manipulation (Ki user's ki attacks produce heat allowing them to cook and grill animals and raw meat[1][2], along with leaving behind steam after the attacks hit an area, showing its latent heat), Power Nullification (Those with ki can nullify attacks of lesser ki with their ki alone. They can also catch and nullify ki attacks around their level through focusing enough[3]), 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), 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), Non-Physical Interaction (Those with Ki were able to harm the Ghost Warriors), Healing (Can heal downed allies to give them ki back. Ki can be used to heal beings, allowing them to survive even with half their torso, it can also heal from near death), Fusionism (Like other characters, Soba can perform the Fusion Dance), Energy Projection (With full power energy ball, shoots a powered up ki ball).

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)


Standard Equipment

Nothing notable.


Notable Techniques

  • Full Power Energy Ball: A powered up ki ball.
  • Continuous Energy Bullet: Soba is capable of rapidly firing energy blasts.
  • Hurricane: Soba spins and launches himself at his foe.
  • Instant Transmission: The teleportation technique created and used by the Yardrats.

Other

Standard Tactics: Soba will use hand to hand attacks along with ki attacks and his instant transmission.

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, allowing them to not be able to tank or die to far lower attacks such as attacks that have destroyed the planets of several worlds.

Note: Some clips used on the profile come from an anime or movie due to the fact that some abilities Goku 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[4].

Note 2: 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

  • Soba's name is a pun on the Japanese word for noodles, which happens to be "Soba".
  • Soba was originally the name of Emperor Pilaf's dog-like henchman, who was later renamed Shu.
  • Soba looks very similar to Kishime, one of the three Bio-Warriors that serve Dr. Wheelo. Kishime's name is also a reference to noodles.
