Android 14 is Dr. Gero's fourteenth Android creation. He is designed to serve Gero's vendetta against Goku, who overthrew the Red Ribbon Army as a child.
While the main timeline version of him was destroyed by Gero, the parallel world Android 14 makes his debut as an antagonist in Dragon Ball Z: Super Android 13!.
According to Akira Toriyama's art of the character, this android was intended to be Android 15, however, Toei Animation switched the two androids' names.
This dropdown contains the synopsis of Android 14’s story. Read at your own risk as you may be spoiled otherwise!
He was developed by Dr. Gero at some point before the Androids Saga. Along with Android 13 and Android 15, Android 14 was quite close to the final Android form, however like their predecessors they had one problem or another and as such were presumed to have been destroyed by Dr. Gero.
Even though Android 13, Android 14, and Android 15 are not featured in the Dragon Ball manga, the "Androids A-B-C's" section mentions that Androids 13, 14, and 15 were very close to the Android concept.
Android 14 is completed by Dr. Gero's self-aware supercomputer alongside Android 15. The two set out for West City, where they devastatingly assault a restaurant where Goku's family is in the midst of dining, in an effort to kill Goku. After rescuing bystanders in the restaurant's vicinity, a short battle between the androids and Goku and Future Trunks ensues; the fighters soon after take their combat to an isolated glacial area, where they are followed by Gohan and Krillin.
While 14 and 15 are taking up arms against Goku and Trunks, a third android arrives on the scene: Android 13, who was completed by Dr. Gero's supercomputer after 14 and 15. Upon his arrival on the scene, 13 confronts Goku, leaving Trunks and Vegeta to fight 14 and 15 respectively. Android 14 starts to overpower Trunks in their battle, managing to use the devastating Android Charge 14.
Ultimately, Android 14 is destroyed following Trunks' transformation to Super Saiyan, who slices him in half with his sword when the two both charge for each other (in sync with the destruction of Android 15 by Super Saiyan Vegeta), although the vivisection had a delayed effect, also slightly wounding Trunks with a cut on his head. However, even their deaths are fail-safe, as 13 absorbs components from 14 and 15, resulting in his transformation into Super Android 13.
Intelligence:Genius (An android created by Dr. Gero which means it's most likely outfitted with various different battle strategies and the ability to analyze their opponents and find out their weaknesses)
Energy Attack: The most basic form of energy attack used by androids.
3D Scan Mode: A mode that allows advanced scanning of enemies.
Goku Termination Program: Android 14 was programmed to kill Goku. The program contains information on Goku such as his address, fighting style, and techniques.
Android Charge 14: Android 14's ultimate attack. Used on Future Trunks in the movie and named in Raging Blast 2.
Slicing Attack: Used by Android 14 to slice a police car at the beginning of Super Android 13!
Energy Squall: An energy sphere barrage used by Android 14 and Android 15 against Future Trunks.
Murder Ball: A Full Power Energy Ball.
Combined Energy Ball: First, Androids 14 and 15 charge their own energy spheres, then they combine them into one unique and gigantic energy sphere, and fire it from below at the target. They used this attack against Goku and his family, destroying the building where the family was dining.
Other
Standard Tactics: Android 14 will shoot ki attacks along with use hand to hand combat, analyzing the data of his enemy during battle.
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 havedestroyed theplanets of several worlds.
