Super Buu's absorption technique

Control opening screen
Rotate the Right Analog-stick to spin Master Roshi. Press the Left Analog-stick to change his position on the screen.

When the loading screen appears and you see Master Roshi on a hover disc, quickly rotate the Right Analog-stick to control the speed and the Left Analog-stick to control the movement. Roshi can only move sideways.

When you see Master Roshi spinning in the opening/loading screen, you can press [R1], [R2], [L1], [L2] instead to spin him You can still control him with the Left Analog-stick. Note: This does not work when you perform a special move such as Continuous Kamehameha.

Use the following trick to make Master Roshi fly. Note: It requires a controller with an auto-fire features. Set the auto-fire to [L1] + [L2] + [R1] + [R2] and use it to make Master Roshi spin fast enough to fly. You can also move him around with the Left Analog-stick.

To make Master Roshi fly, rotate the Right Analog-stick with your palm very quickly. If you are fast enough, you can also use [R1], [R2], [L1], [L2]. Slow down the spinning to make him hover.

Alternate costumes
When fighting in training or duel modes, you can change your character's costume by pressing [Square] so that you will turn to the question mark. Then, press [X] to choose a character. They will have different costumes. For example, Piccolo will look like Nail and Gohan will fight in his father's costume.

To change costumes, go to the character and press [Up] or [Down]. You will be able to select a different costumes. Some characters may have three choices but most have only two.

Easy transformation
Instead of having to press the [P] + [K] + [G], press [R1] + [R2] to transform. This works with all characters who transform in any way. This can be very useful if you want to knock the guard off your opponent while standing next to them.

Go to options menu and set one of the shoulder buttons([L1], [L2], [R1], [R2]) to [P] + [K] + "G." By doing this, you only have to press one button.

Hint: Easier Fusion (Gotenks), Spirit Ball Attack (Yamcha), and Burning Slash (Trunks):
When doing the three attacks mentioned, pause game play when the button combo is halfway up the screen. Normally you cannot pause game play when it is totally on the screen. Memorize the button combo, then press [Start] again and execute it.

Easy capsules
Select the Capsule Skill Shop by pressing [X]. You will usually see Bulma in the lower right side usually. When there, hold [R1] + [R2] + [L1]. This will sometimes cause the selector to highlight a capsule, but it does not matter if it does not. While still holding [R1] + [R2] + [L1], press [Triangle]x2 to exit the Capsule Select window. This will randomly give you one free capsule. That means that it can still give you one that you already have, so you must repeat the trick a few more times to get a new capsule. If your percentage is very low, like in the single digits to the teens, you should see a change in the percentage immediately. If it is over 50%, it probably will not change the first time you do the trick. Thus, you must do it a few more times. This trick will give you breakthroughs, stages, moves, new outfits for bulma, etc.

Note: You must go to "Edit Capsules" and edit any one of your characters before going to the main menu, or you will have to start where you last saved.

Use the following trick to get easy double capsules. Go to the skill store and look for the capsule that you want two of. Buy it (even if it does not say "New"). Then, if you did not have it before you must leave and buy it again. Put it on your character twice. Note: This only works for red and blue capsules. It does not work for green or black capsules.

Golden Capsule on level 1
On the first level, where you have to get to the Dragonball before Raditz and Nappa, defeat all the Saibamen that pop up until a red one appears. Fight that one and win. You should get a new capsule for Hercule. Equip the capsule, and whenever Hercule's health drops below one sixth he will now receive a boost of energy. This may require a few attempts

Easy money
On the last level where you fight Kid Buu, when you start dig (press [Square]) until a question mark appears over your head. Note: You can use any character.

Silver Card
Buy all red capsules that you can get at the beginning. Alternately, have a saved game from the original Dragon Ball Z: Budokai on your memory card.

Gold Card
Buy all the red capsules that you can get with the Silver Card.

Black Card
Buy all the red capsules that you can get with the Gold Card.

Kibitoshin
In Dragon World, do not take the Potara Earrings from the Supreme Kai to fuse into Vegito. Complete the game without taking them.

Bulma's costume
To get Bulma's costumes, get all the Dragon Balls. Then, summon the dragon. If you are lucky, you can get Bulma's costumes. Bulma's costume will change the way that Bulma appears in the capsule shop.

Make Bulma move in the shop
Press [R2] and she will move.

Restore health during fight
Note: This trick requires two players and Babidi's Spaceship. First, go to Babidi's Spaceship. When asked how many players are playing, select "2P". One of the mini-games involves locking your Ki and Health together. Select that game. You can now recharge your health during a fight. Note: Since this trick locks your Ki and Health together, you can now lose health by using any Ki-draining special attack.

Wishes
When you get all seven Dragonballs you get one wish. Do not buy Bulma's costumes. Instead, you should buy Breakthrough, Fusion, and Potera capsules. Breakthrough capsules take all seven slots but give every move for that person. Others allow secret fusions between people.

Use the following trick to get all the wishes. At the very end when you must defeat Kid Buu you will get one wish after the credits by obtaining all seven Dragon Balls. Before you defea Kid Buu, save the game and exit. Then, copy the saved game file for the game onto another memory card. Start the game again and defeat Kid Buu (again) and get another wish. When done, copy or transfer the capsule that you obtained.

Picking up a Dragon Ball
To pick up a Dragon Ball after it is in the center of the Dragon Ball Radar, just select the character that is on top of the Dragon Ball and press [Square].

Babidi's Spaceship: Easy wins
To win and get some skills from Babidi's spaceship, try the following:

Put a Senzu Bean on a custom character. Include the best armor they have. Then, go to Babidi's Spaceship on level 2. Select the custom character, then guard and dodge the attacks. When you die, the Senzu Bean will be used and you will have full health. Then, guard and dodge. You will easily win Kili by doing this, and collect the Majin Buu capsules, Dabura, Skills, etc.


Put a Senzu Bean on a custom character. Also use Gero's Perpetual Energy and a favorite death move. Go to level 1 on Babidi's Spaceship and keep doing the death move. Be careful not to lose any health. When you die, the Senzu Bean will be used and you will be resurrected. Then, continue to fight and do the death move repeatedly. If they start to dodge, then try fighting them.


Use Yamcha on level 3. Make sure he has Wolf Fang Fist. Keep doing Wolf Fang Fist and they will easily get hit by you if you activate the move and keep pressing [E]. This should get you a lot of Kili.


Use this in the stage where you fight enemies until you die. Attach Dr. Gero's Perpetual Energy Capsule to any character with a strong energy attack, such as Trunks or Kid Buu. You can keep pressing the button for the attack repeatedly without losing any Ki. However, you cannot transform during the battle. This also works well with a Senzu Bean.

Go to level 2 and pick a character, then edit skills. If you have it, get Mysterious Vest. If not, use another guard power-up. Next, pick Senzu Bean. If you put on Mysterious Vest you should not have any more room. Then, start the fight. When you lose your first bar, your character will use Senzu Bean and recharge to full health in the green. Note: Do not use your capsule space for attacks, this is endurance.


Note: This trick requires a controller with an auto-fire feature. Go to the game where you have to deflect the Ki blast back and forth. Before the round starts, take one jump back, set [X] to auto-fire, then shoot and hold [X]. This should give you 193 hits in the round and result in about 600 Kili.


Use Vegeta with Final Explosion and keep doing it as long as possible. Note: You must be very good at doing Final Explosion; if you do not get it to a full bar the level is over.

Dragon World: Extra move turnips
In Dragon World mode, there are extra move turnips that allow you to move two spaces instead of one. In level 2, where Frieza starts the level is a hexagon shape, the move turnip is located at the top of the hexagon. In level 4, move downward and diagonal one space from where Goku starts and search there. In level 7, the move turnip is where your ally starts. Have them check the area. In level 9, it is where Goku starts from. Just have him search there.

Dragon World: Faster wins
Play as Goku and give him the following skills:

King Kai Fist x20
Super Saiyan
Super Saiyan 2
Super Saiyan 3
Saiyan Spirit
Warp Kamehameha
Warp Kamehameha

In every fight you can just power up to 5 Energy Levels, Transform, and press [P]x2, [K]x2, [Circle]. If they livem you will only need 3 Energy Levels to do it once more.

Switching To Goten or Kid Trunks in a duel
Equip Goten or Kid Trunks with the Fusion. While you are fighting, press [P] + [K] + [G] ([Triangle] + [Square] + [X]). You will have all of their moves as if you chose that character at the start. Note: No transformation is possible.

Easy wins
Get a Viral Heart Disease Skill and put it on for support. Then, get a Vaccine to not make your Power decrease, but your opponent's will. Just block until their health is in the orange. You should now be able to defeat them.

When you initiate Burst mode in battle, instead of just randomly pressing buttons (as the game suggests), use the palm of your hand to rotate both "Analog-sticks" either clockwise or counter-clockwise, depending on which is more comfortable for you. Note: For optimal performance, use your dominant hand (if you are right-handed, use your right hand; and if left-handed, use your left).

Go to edit skills and choose any character. Then put Viral Heart Disease, Vaccine, and Senzu Bean. You will have one space remaining to put anything desired. If you die even if using Viral Heart Disease and Vaccine, you always have the Senzu Bean.

When your opponent uses his special that does not need to be in contact with you (such as Destructo Disc), if you are far enough away you can press [Down] + [X] to dodge the attack, and then press "Over" + [Circle] to shoot your special, which almost always hits them.

When fighting a short opponent, kick them into the air. You will be able hit and kick them as if you were fighting Cell or someone similar.

To defeat any villain easier (especially Fat Buu, Super Buu, and Kid Buu), choose any character and go to the skill sheet. Add some good Ki attacks then choose the Vital Heart Disease. The opponent's health will slowly decrease. The best partners against Kid Buu are Gohan and Trunks. Use Gohan until Kid Buu does not let up. On the last health block, use Trunks. Also, the character that defeats Kid Buu will receive the best attack one would need with that person.

Easy characters
To unlock the characters easily, try to complete the Dragon World (the real game). About every time you defeat a character, you will unlock the person that you were battling against.

All characters
Successfully complete novice and adept modes in tournament and save the game to a memory card. Get a different memory card with no file from the game. Complete story mode and go to Mr. Popo's shop. Put the memory cards in slots one and two. Trade the Dragon Ball from the new saved file on memory card two to Memory Card one. Remove both memory cards. Put the memory card that was in slot two into slot one. You will now have all the characters from the saved game file on memory card one.

Continue customizing character
When on Stage 2 on Babidi's ship, you can still customize your character. Before you continue with Stage 2, add a full Senzu Bean onto you customized character. After your one bar of life is gone you will use the Senzu Bean and regain three full bars of life, extending the time that you can "endure your opponent's attacks".

After defeating the Supreme Kai on the Supreme Kai planet, fight Vegeta and kill him to receive the Super Saiyan 2 capsule for Goku. You need four Ki bars to transform into Super Saiyan 2.

Gokule: Change appearance

Next, select the character along with the capsule. When you use the fusion and it is successful, Gokule will appear differently. You can do with other fusions, but their costume will only change.

Goten: Immortal
On the "5" place, chose Kid Trunks and Goten as allies. Have Goten and Trunks stand at the same location. They will do the spin power-up and Goten will get +30 defense and trunks will get +30 attack. There are two more +20 armors on the lower area (the area where you start). Pick those up and he will be at 210 defense. Then, equip Goten with Mysterious Vest and he will not be able to be hurt, and you will get all "Perfects", unless you fight on a location that drains your health.

Goten: Easy wins
Unlock Mysterious Vest and Super Holy Water. Equip them and something else to Goten. Every time in Dragon World, get Goten as an ally. Have Goten and Goku stand next to each other. Then, try to get an armor thing or two. If you get two worth +20%, you will be almost invincible.

Defeat Android 18 as Krillin to get a kiss.

Super Saiyan 3 Goku
Defeat Fat Buu the first time you see him, in the level where he gets resurrected and kills Babidi, with Goku. Super Saiyan 3 requires five Ki gauges to use. Once you transform your Ki will begin dropping very quickly. However, Super Saiyan 3 also super-charges your attacks. This means that Warp Kamehameha and Super Spirit Bomb (and your other attacks such as Kamehameha and Zanku Fist) will now be even more powerful than they already were.

Tien: Recommended moves

Dodompa x2 (one slot each)

Sturdy Vest (three slots)

Super Saiyan
Mixed Blood Power
Trunks' Sword
Super Kami Water or Potential
Burning Slash x2

Vegeta: Big Bang attack
Defeat Kid Buu as Vegeta on the Supreme Kai's Planet.

Vegeta: Recommended moves
Note: Once you are under Babidi's Control, get your Ki Gauge up to 5 (not very easy) and do Final Explosion. You will hit for 3,00 damage, which is the highest possible in the game.

Babidi's Mind Control
Super Kami Water
Desperate Resolution

Use the following capsules. With Angel's Halo on, you will not lose any Ki when you are transformed, so Bulma's Wish is constantly raising your Ki. You can use techniques other than Galick Gun, but it is easy to execute and is fairly strong when used at full power.

SS1
SS2
Galick Gun x2
Angel's Halo
Bulma's Wish

The best moves for Vegeta are as follows. Even though you only have one real move, you may not need it; and if you do, Meditation gives you twice as many.

Angels Halo
SS1
SS2
Galic Gun
Bulma's Wish
Meditation

Vegita: One Hit K.O.
Use Vegeta and equip Babidi's Mind Control. When you get down to your last health bar, let the CPU hit you. Make sure you hit the ground. After you hit the ground, you will see a short FMV sequence and Babidi will appear and turn you into Majin Vegeta. You now have access to two of the best moves in the game; Atomic Blast which takes up nearly an entire health bar, and Final Explosion which is the most powerful attack. If you manage to pull off Final Explosion, you will get a one hit K.O., even if the CPU is at full health. However, the charge-up meter for Final Explosion grows incredibly slow; and unless you fill the meter up completely, the only thing you will do is destroy Vegeta. To fill up the meter faster, do not rotate the "Analog-sticks". Instead, repeatedly press [X]. This is the only way to fill the meter without destroying yourself.

Vegeta (Majin form): Recommended moves

Babidi's Mind Control
Angel's Halo
Galick Gun
Final Flash
Nose Dive Crash/Meteor Break

Vegeta (Majin form): Use S Final Explosion without dying
Go to training mode and select "Practice". Choose Vegeta as your character, add Babidi's Mind Control, and select "Custom". Then, select any character and add Viral Heart Disease. Next, add the vaccine and select "Custom". Start the game. Wait until Vegeta's health gauge is red. Then, let the CPU hit you. You will now turn into Majin Vegeta. You can practice trying to perfect Majin Vegeta's final explosion without dying.

Videl: Recommended moves

Eagle Kick
Viral Heart Disease
Vaccine
Falcon Rush x2 (or one Falcon Rush and Meditation)
Videl's Close Call

Yamcha: Easy unlocks
Play Stage 3 of Babidi's Spaceship with Yamcha only using Wolf Fang Fist to unlock Dabura, Majin, Super and Kid Buu along with some of their moves much faster than if someone else was used.

Yamcha-Tien switch
In practice or duel mode, give either Yamcha or Tien their Tiencha fusion ability. Play with that custom character and press [Punch], [Kick] and [Guard] during a match. Yamcha and Tien will switch.

Defeating Buu
To defeat Buu easily in story mode, use Custom Goku with the following capsules:

20x King Kai Fist
Super Saiyan
Super Saiyan 2
Kamehameha
Vaccine
Viral Heart Disease

Use your allies to run own Buu's health. Recommended allies are Piccolo and Vegeta (Galick Gun, S.S. 1 and 2, Meteor Break, Meteor Flash).

Defeating Kid Buu
Play as Goten or Kid Trunks. Have them be Super Saiyan and have two capsules of Kamehameha or Buster Cannon. Also get a quick fire type move such as Continuous Kamehameha (if Trunks has one). This works well because if you are tall (like Goku), you will kick over Buu's head.

When fighting Kid Buu for the final time, first destroy everything outside of his little place. Then, move your character and your allies all in the place and gang up on him.

Charge special faster
Hold [X] when charging up for a special to charge faster. This the only way to get Majin Vegeta's Final Explosion move without getting destroyed.

Powered down
Turn Super Saiyan or Super Namek. While in this form, change to any character. Notice the character you changed from will be powered down to normal.

Maximum Ki
When you fighting someone, charge your Ki for one second. Then, press [Select] and you will have maximum Ki. You can do this as long as desired.

The best way to get maximum Ki for Goku and Vegeta is to win their Angel Halos. When you transform into any form of Super Saiyan or Majin Vegeta, your Ki will not decrease. The only way for your Ki to go down is if you use an attack such as Spirit Bomb, Big Bang Attack, or Final Destruction.

Lower opponent's Ki faster
Set the taunt ([P] + [K] + [G] + [E]) to any of the shoulder buttons ([L2] recommended). Then, perform the taunt during the battle. Your opponent's Ki will drop one level. This is very useful when preventing your opponent from performing high damage moves or going Super Saiyan.

Continuous and fast Kamehameha meter
Turn you controller vertically and place your hand over both "Analog sticks". Rotate them both with your hand.

Double attacks
Equip two of the same type of beam attacks (such as Galick Gun, Kamehameha, Buster Cannon, etc.) to your fighter. They will be twice as big and powerful as before.

Instead, beat him once and make him challenge you. If done correctly, you will see an FMV sequence where Ginyu asks Vegeta to join the Ginyu Force. Vegeta will reply that he would never do that stupid pose. Also, after you take away one life and fight him again, Vegeta will tell Ginyu that the Ginyu Force has been changed to the Vegeta Special Forces and Captain Ginyu is welcome to join.

Whereabouts of the other Ginyu Force members
Fight Captain Ginyu on Namek with Vegeta and he will tell you that the other Ginyu Force members are on their way to another planet, and that he and Recoome are all that will be needed to take you down. .

Dragon Ball GT reference
After the stage where Vegeta get s taken over by Babidi, Freeza and Cell come back to life. This happens in Dragon Ball GT.

Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z references
If you look closely when fighting in the Budokai arena, some of the fans resemble characters from Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z. For example, Emperor Pilaf and Mai from the original Dragon Ball, and King Kai.

When you get one of Bulma's alternate costumes, it will be a black one piece swimming suit with bunny ears on her head. This is from Dragon Ball, the television show; Olong gives it to her to wear.

Dragon Ball Z Budokai reference
When fighting Kid Buu in Dragon World mode, when he does the vanishing drop technique it is exactly the same as the Missing Screw move that Zarbon used in the original Dragon Ball Z: Budokai.

Power Rangers reference
When fighting Dr.Gero's colored Saibamen, he calls them Saiba Rangers. The colors are Blue, Green, Yellow, Red, and Pink and are a reference to the Power Rangers.

Glitch: Buy everything easily
Go to the tournament and play under the "Novice" difficulty setting. Win to get 50,000. Then, go to the shop. Buy something with the money and while the money is being deducted, quickly select each one. The money will not stop deducting, allowing you to buy everything with only 50,000.

Glitch: Z-sword in rock
On Namak, even after you grab the Z-Sword, it remains in the rock when fighting.

Glitch: Wrong voice
When you get the fusion technique for Tiencha equip it to Tien and Yamcha. Go to training as Yamcha with the custom setting. Press [P] + [G] + [K] to switch to Tien then press [P] + [K] + [G] again and switch back to Yamcha. Use the Kamehameha Wave and "Take this" will be said in Tien's voice instead of Kamehameha.

Play as Trunks and do his Double Buster move. You will hear him say "Du-du-du-dum!", which is said when Gotenks does the Victory Cannon. However, because you are Trunks you should have heard "Double Buster!". This only works if you have the Fusion capsule on Trunks.

When playing as Perfect form Cell, oddly enough he will speak in the voice of his form before absorbing 17 and 18.

Glitch: Full bar for Android 20
Select Android 20 (Dr. Gero), go to training mode and select "Practice". Choose any character for the CPU. Set the Ki Blast to deflect back then use. Press [Circle] then use Ki Blast Absorption. You will get one bar full.

Glitch: Not a move
As Tiencha, press [K]x2, [Right], [K], [Right], [K], [P], [E]. It will not show any move, but appears as if you are about to do one.

Glitch: Time stop
At the main menu, go to options and set your controller settings to have your taunt at [R2]. When you battle in Duel or World Tournament mode, play as Android 17, Android 18, or Cell. As you do an Energy Field attack ([Left] + [Circle]), press [R2] immediately before it happens. This will stop the attack and you will taunt, but freeze the screen as if you are doing a devastation move. You are now free to move and power up as desired, but once you do another devastation move, your opponent will be able to move again. In the World Tournament mode, you can do this and push the enemy to the edge of the ring. Then, hold [Square] + [Triangle] to knock them off. Cell is recommended for this, as he has the Spirit Bomb and you can go behind the enemy while they are frozen and execute it. The ultimate attack is to freeze them, back off slightly, then start shooting regular energy balls. After about four bars of energy, back up a little more and do a Kameheha attack with Cell to do 1,820 or more points of damage. This is the strongest attack in the game besides Vegeta's Final Explosion. Note: The game may occasionally freeze if this lasts too long.
