History

### Gohan's Childhood **Birth:** Son Gohan was born in the House of Son on Paoz Mountain, the first child of Goku and Chi-Chi. He was named after Goku's adoptive grandfather, Son Gohan, who raised him in his childhood. From a young age, Gohan showed great potential, even more than his father in certain aspects, although his mother raised him with the intention of having a normal life and not becoming a fighter. **Meeting with Piccolo:** When Gohan was four years old, Earth was threatened by Goku's brother Raditz, who arrived to claim his brother and bring him over to the Saiyan side. During this battle, Goku was killed, and Gohan was kidnapped by Piccolo, who planned to train him to fight the Saiyans coming to Earth. Although Gohan and Piccolo did not get along at first, they soon developed a strong bond as Piccolo became concerned for Gohan's well-being and became his mentor. **Training:** Gohan underwent intense training with Piccolo and learned how to fight and control his Ki. In this process, Gohan also discovered his ability to transform into a Great Ape when he looked at the full sun (the full moon). However, his peaceful nature and reluctance to fight became a challenge for both of them. ### Saga of the Saiyans **Battle against Nappa and Vegeta:** Gohan made his debut in the fight against the Saiyans, when Nappa and Vegeta arrived on Earth. During the battle, Gohan showed hidden potential by transforming into a Great Ape, allowing him to assist in the fight. After the battle, he learned to control his Great Ape form thanks to his training with Piccolo.

### Namek Saga **Trip to Namek:** Gohan traveled to Namek with Bulma and Krillin to help find the Dragon Balls and resurrect Goku. During this saga, Gohan faced powerful enemies, such as the Ginyu warriors and Frieza. Despite his fear, he showed remarkable courage and managed to transform into a Super Saiyan, though it was Goku who ultimately defeated Frieza. ### Cell Saga **Training with Goku:** Following the Namek Saga, Gohan continued his training and became stronger. As a young teenager, he joined his father in the Other World Training and learned the Kamehameha. When Cell appeared and began terrorizing the Earth, Gohan had to face this formidable foe. During the Android Tournament, Gohan finally transformed into a Super Saiyan 2 for the first time upon seeing his friend, Android 16, die, giving him the strength to defeat Cell in an epic battle. ### Majin Buu Saga **Beginnings of the Academy:** Following Cell's defeat, Gohan attempted to live a normal life, attending school and furthering his education. He became the Great Saiyaman, a masked vigilante who fought crime. However, when the monster Majin Buu appeared and began wreaking havoc, Gohan was forced to return to battle. **Transformation into unleashed potential:** Gohan was trained by Elder Kai, who unlocked his "Unleashed Potential", giving him a huge power boost without the need for transformations. This power allowed him to fight Buu in dangerous ways, but he was eventually outmatched by the villain.

### Dragon Ball Super Saga **Freezer's Resurrection:** In "Dragon Ball Z: Fukkatsu no 'F'", Gohan fought alongside his friends to stop Frieza's resurrection, showing advancements in his power, but not reaching his full potential. **Tournament of Power:** In "Dragon Ball Super," Gohan proves to be a worthy participant in the Tournament of Power, fighting alongside powerful warriors such as Goku and Vegeta. His development during this saga leads him to explore and improve his combat technique, as well as his strategic ability. ### Beast Gohan Transformation **Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero:** In this film, Gohan experiences a dramatic breakthrough with his new transformation, "Beast Gohan." This form makes him one of the most powerful fighters in the universe, surpassing his "Unleashed Potential." In this film, Gohan, seeing his friends and loved ones put at risk, transforms and manages to defeat the main villain, Cell Max.
