8 species that Are stronger
Howdy welcome to our site dbselites. Today i will discuss 8 species that are stronger than saiyans .
Saiyans are depicted as being incredibly strong, some of the most powerful aliens in the entire universe. The fact that they get stronger with every battle might lead one to believe that they are potentially the strongest species in Dragon Ball. While that may very well be true, the universe is full of powerful species that have faced Saiyans in battle and bested them. What we’re trying to say is that the Saiyans were a powerful warrior race, but they might not have been the strongest. In fact, there are 15 other species that can be considered stronger than the Saiyans in the Dragon Ball franchise.
Over the course of the franchise, Goku, Vegeta and the half-Saiyans have managed to best most foes that have come their way, save for a few deities and the like. This is to say that Saiyans appear to be the strongest of the mortal races, but that’s not quite true. Of course, the Saiyans get stronger and stronger as time goes on, so for this list, we are going to present species in the Dragon Ball franchise that have, at some point, displayed power greater than a Saiyan’s, even if they were later surpassed. We’re going to throw a few curveballs too!
8. NAMEKIANS
Starting off, we have Namekians, or more specifically, Piccolo, who’s done an impressive job of keeping up with the ever-growing power of the likes of Goku and Vegeta. While he might not currently be stronger than Goku and Vegeta, there was a point when Piccolo surpassed the power of a Super Saiyan during the Android/Cell saga. Piccolo was already an extremely powerful Namekian prior to absorbing Nail, but afterwards, he had become a Super Namekian, one whose power was enough to take on Frieza in his second form.
7. ANGELS
This is a fairly easy one to argue, but for the sake of being thorough, let’s take a look at what an Angel is in the world of Dragon Ball. In each universe of the Dragon Ball multiverse, there are gods of creation, the Supreme Kai, and the gods of destruction. Together they keep the balance of the universe, but there is one main difference aside from the nature of their powers. Where the Supreme Kai are born into divinity, the destruction gods are chosen to be given power, and in order for them to hone and use their power properly, they are assigned a teacher/attendant to more or less keep them in line.
These are the angels, beings of great power who serve the gods of destruction. The exact origin of their race is not exactly clear, but we do know that a large number of the Angels are related to each other, being the offspring of Grand Priest, the head of all the Angels and attendant to Zeno himself. So, what is their power? We know for a fact that it is greater than that of a god of destruction, which itself is immensely higher than that of even the strongest Saiyan. Knowing this, we can easily say that Angels are, without a doubt, much stronger than Saiyans.
6. BEERUS’ RACE
As we just mentioned, the main difference between Gods of Destruction and Supreme Kai is the source of their divinity. Supreme Kai are born as gods, but Destroyers are chosen for the position. They get this position by proving their strength, and if they are powerful enough, they are given godly ki and the power of destruction. Beerus and his brother are both of the same alien species, a cat-like race that has potential for great power. Just by the fact that two different members of Beerus’ race were chosen as gods of destruction is enough to tell us just how powerful their species can be.
5. SHINJIN
The Kais and The Supreme Kais have more in common then just their name, as they are also part of the same species, the Shinjin. The Shinjin are a race born into divinity and trained to act as a Kai or Supreme Kai. The Kai oversee their respective quadrants, which, in the case of King Kai, means training warriors to ensure the survival of the mortals of his quadrant. While it has been a long time since King Kai was stronger than Goku, we can count him in this entry.
However, the true Shinjin that we can consider stronger than Saiyans are the Supreme Kai. We know that when Shin saw Gohan’s Super Saiyan 2 power, it impressed him, as it was beyond what he expected of a mortal. This, as well as the fact that the Supreme Kai themselves were not strong enough to defeat Majin Buu and thus had to enlist the help of mortals, tells us that the Supreme Kai are not stronger than Gohan, Goku, Vegeta, or most of the other Saiyans. However, Shin and the Supreme Kai were introduced in the final saga of Dragon Ball Z, which means Goku and the other Saiyans were at their strongest, so we can, at the very least, say that the Shinjin people were stronger than, say, Goku and Vegeta in the Androids saga, and perhaps a bit beyond.
Despite the fact that these characters were artificially created, they can still be considered a species within DBZ lore, and as a whole, they are far stronger than your average Saiyan, besting even the strongest of Saiyans like Goku and Vegeta. There have been quite a few androids featured throughout the Dragon Ball franchise, but most know those featured in Dragon Ball Z. Goku faced the likes of Android 8 and other Red Ribbon androids in his childhood days, but the more well-known androids of the franchise are Androids 16-20 and Cell, some of which have bested a Saiyan in some way.
Android 19 was able to best Goku in the early parts of the Androids saga, but that was only because he was affected by a heart virus, so maybe we can’t count it, especially since Vegeta was able to easily defeat him. As for Androids 17 and 18, we know for a fact that they were too strong for Future Trunks and most of the Saiyans to handle prior to extensive training, their strength coming from their infinite internal energy source. Cell also proves that Androids are stronger than Saiyans by the fact that it took Gohan achieving a whole new Super Saiyan transformation to finally defeat Cell, showing that regular Super Saiyans were not enough to take on the most perfect of all the androids.
This is a bit of an interesting one to analyze, so stick with us. While they might not make that many appearances at this point in the franchise, Dragon Ball would not be complete without, well, Dragons. The Dragons are more or less a type of deity within the world of Dragon Ball, granting wishes to those who seek their power. There are three dragons we have seen in the main canon of the franchise, Shenron, Porunga and Super Shenron, each with increasing power and the latter being capable of granting wishes without rules.
It is the magical power of Super Shenron and even the lesser Dragons in the series that proves they are stronger than Saiyans in some way. While a Dragon might not have the fighting power to face the likes of Goku or Vegeta, they do have the magical power to, in some way, take out a Saiyan. Yes, there is the fact that a Dragon only has the power of its creator, and thus cannot grant a wish to kill a being stronger than its creator, but there was a time when Kami was stronger than Goku as a kid. However, Dragons are stronger than Saiyans thanks to the existence of Super Shenron, whose limitless wish-granting abilities tell us how great his power, or rather the power of his creator.
2. FRIEZA’S RACE
Planet Vegeta was destroyed by Frieza for one main reason — Frieza feared the Saiyans. Or rather, Frieza feared their ability to get stronger with every fight, thinking that one day, a Saiyan with power greater than his might appear and knock him off of his throne. Add to this the legend of the Super Saiyan, and it was enough for Frieza to destroy the entire planet and prevent his power from being challenged. This tells us something about Frieza, and by extension, his species, and how their power stacks up against a Saiyan. For one thing, Frieza was strong enough to destroy an entire planet of Saiyans without much effort, which should be the end of the argument, were it not for his fight against Super Saiyan Goku.
The fact that Frieza’s fears were confirmed after facing a Super Saiyan might lead us to believe that his race is not stronger than Saiyans, especially since he and his father were easily defeated by Super Saiyan Trunks. But, all this time, Frieza’s power was the result of naturally high strength levels, and when he finally trained in Resurrection F and Dragon Ball Super, he gained a power that was greater than the power of a Super Saiyan using Godly Ki. In other words, Frieza’s race is capable of surpassing a Saiyan in more ways than one, even when they have the power of a god.
1. UNIVERSE 6 SAIYANS
In the universe 6 arc of Dragon Ball Super, we were introduced to an alternate race of Saiyans, starting with Cabba. The Saiyans of universe 6 are quite different from the Saiyans of universe 7, starting with the fact that they were not aware of what a Super Saiyan was. While this might lead us to believe that the Universe 6 Saiyans are weaker than the Universe 7 Saiyans, there is another crucial point that turns the tables of this argument. The Saiyans of Universe 6 are not the battle-hungry, war-mongering, aggressive warriors, they are a kind-hearted people who use their great strength to defend and help others.
Because of this difference in personality and values, the Saiyans of Universe 6 did not have a need for the Super Saiyan form, but that doesn’t mean they didn’t have access to it. In fact, their ability to quickly grasp the Super Saiyan form tells us their potential, which we believe is far greater than that of a universe 7 Saiyan. Perhaps it is the gentle nature of Universe 6 Saiyans that makes it easier for them to go Super Saiyan — which checks out, according to Toriyama’s explanation of how S-Cells work. Also, the fact that all the Saiyans on team Universe 6 were able to go Super Saiyan 2 in the Tournament of Power, only a short time after first learning about Super Saiyan 1, shows that their power could easily pass that of a Universe 7 Saiyan.
