1.1 Basic Overview
Note: Right from the start, this guide has spoilers. If you don't want to know
the secrets, but figure things out on your own, I suggest you stop reading as
soon as you have found what you need.
This is the one-player mode that all Dragonball Z games have. In Budokai 2, you
play as if playing a board game, quite unlike the first Budokai. Characters
move from one spot to the next, and fight any enemies that are on the same
location as your character. In Dragon World, you also get the help of allies,
whom you chose at the beginning of each stage. You start off with one, but are
able to use more as the game proceeds. There is also a new way of obtaining
Dragon Balls; instead of buying them from Mr. Popo as is Budokai 1, Goku and
his friends must find them in the different Dragon World Stages.
Dragon World is made up of 9 stages spanning the entire Dragonball Z universe;
from the arrival of Raditz to the thrilling conclusion with the battle for
Earth between Goku and Majin Buu in all his forms. Prepare yourself...
Note: The following info is a transcription of the opening cinematic for Dragon
World. Don't read it here if you want to read it on your TV. Or, you can skip
the one on your TV and read it here. It is definitely faster to read it here,
but do what you want to do.
"Long ago, seven Dragon Balls were forged, which when gathered together would
summon the Eternal Dragon to grant a single wish. The quest for these magic
orbs is a perilous one - one that Goku has faced all too often.
For over time...the allure of the Dragon Balls has attracted a host of powerful
villains.
In order to protect the Earth, and to prevent the Dragon Balls from falling
into evil hands, Goku has thrown himself into battle.
And always, he is fueled by a single, burning desire - to be the best!"
1.2 Dragon World - Stage 1
Stage 1 begins with the arrival of Nappa and Raditz on Earth. Yes, Raditz came
alone and Nappa with Vegeta later on in the TV show, but as you'll see, the
game doesn't follow the show exactly.
Raditz and Nappa will start talking about how this is where Kakarot was sent
all those years ago, and how they should look for the Dragon Balls.
Note: While Goku has a body in Dragon World, everyone else has a portrait. Why?
Who knows? It looks a bit weird watching a bunch of pictures hop around, but
that's about it.
Goku is the main character, and as such, will be stronger than everyone else.
While your allies will all start off with two abilities, Goku has three: King
Kai Fist x20, Kamehameha, and Dragonthrow.
Next you will be prompted to choose an ally from a list: Gohan, Goten, Kid
Trunks, Piccolo, Krillin, and Tien.
For this stage, you will want to pick Tien. He starts off the stage with
Dodompa and Jackhammer Fist.
Goku will be at the bottom-left hand corner of the screen, and Tien two spots
above him. Send Goku east past the Dragon Radar over to the Saibamen that Nappa
and Raditz grow. Send Tien to the right also, but towards Nappa. Tien will
automatically get a +30% armor upgrade on his way to Nappa, but there is also a
+10% attack upgrade that either Goku or Tien can get.
*NEW CHARACTER* - Yamcha
The secret to unlocking Yamcha is to defeat Nappa using Tien. Nappa is a large
opponent who uses brute force to pulverize his enemies. He will charge often,
and has two long-range ki attacks: Bomber DX and Break Cannon. Bomber DX is a
ball of blue energy shot from his hand, while Break Cannon is a beam of blue
energy shot from the mouth. Both are fast moves, and hard to dodge if you are
to close to Nappa.
Not only do you unlock Yamcha, but two of his moves as well. They are Tiger
Jackhammer, a throw, and Kamehameha (Yamcha), just like most every other good
character (and some bad ones) on the show.
Nappa has four lives while Tien has two, so make sure he doesn't beat you.
Also, Raditz will most likely challenge Tien as well, so watch out. Raditz is
also a brute force character, with two long-range ki attacks of his own: Double
Sunday and Saturday Crush. Double Sunday is a yellow beam attack while Saturday
Crush is a red ball of energy.
Note: There is a Dragon Radar on every stage, but you don't always need to get
it. For stage 1, the Dragon Ball is not hidden, so you won't need the Dragon
Radar. Later on, once you have all the Dragon Balls, you won't need to worry
about the radar.
Raditz is one of the starting characters, so you don't need to unlock him, but
if you want more capsules, defeat him along with Nappa and the Saibamen. All
you have to do is get either Goku or Tien to the Dragon Ball before Nappa or
Raditz gets it. If you kill Raditz and Nappa before they get a chance, then all
the better. Collect the Dragon Ball to move on to Stage 2.
1.3 Dragon World - Stage 2
You're still on Earth, except now you're in the north. Your enemies this time
are Captain Ginyu and Recoome of the Ginyu Force, along with their boss,
Frieza. There is only one hidden character here, and he is unlocked by using
Goku, so choose whoever you want as your ally.
When Goku arrives, he'll witness an exchange between Captain Ginyu and Recoome
about how Nappa and Raditz have failed and now it's up to the Ginyu Force to
find the Dragon Balls. Lame-o's.
Your ally is closest to the Dragon Radar, so make him get that while Goku
battles Recoome.
*NEW CHARACTER - RECOOME*
Recoome is the only hidden character here, but don't worry, he's real easy to
beat. Goku's Super Dragon Fist and Kamehameha are good moves to use, as they
keep Recoome off his feet. Zanku Fist is okay, but it doesn't do that much.
Recoome comes with two moves as well: Reccome Eraser Gun and Recoome Hyper
Swing. *INFO NEEDED - RECOOME'S STARTER MOVES* Eraser Gun shows a large red
beam of energy shot from Recoome's mouth. For Hyper Swing, Recoome grabs your
leg, flies up into the air a short distance, swings you around, and hurls your
sorry butt into the ground.
While Goku is taking care of Recoome, send your ally off to get the Zenie and
then to help weaken Captain Ginyu. You don't have to beat him, but as with
Raditz, you'll get more capsules.
Recoome will only use the two moves he came with, but Ginyu has his own
mixture. Milky Cannon is a purple beam attack that he throws with both hands
while Ginyu Strike is his version of a punching throw. Once you've taken out
the Ginyu Force, head south to take on Frieza.
Goku should fight Frieza and grab the capsules while your ally goes for the
Dragon Ball, if you don't have it already. In case you don't know how to search
the ground for Dragon Balls (and other items) this is it: select your
character, then push X to search. Push Y to skip your turn, which is a good
thing to do when you are on Dende's healing circles.
Note: There is one set location for each Dragon Ball; however, you never know
which of the seven you will get on any given level unless you already have the
other six. Most of the time they are in the same spot, but be warned.
You're in for a surprise here. Frieza, along with other important bosses later
on, has extra life. Right now it is only one bar, but later on, they have two
full bars of extra health. The easiest way to even the playing field is to blow
all your Ki right away and take off as much health as possible. Then beat the
sucker into submission.
Of course, if you are on Very Easy mode like I was, that won't be necessary.
Frieza will use Death Beam and Death Wave a lot, two very destructive blasts.
Death Beam is a red, well, beam, that comes out of his finger, while Death Wave
is a large, um, wave, of energy that he throws at you. His throw is called
Frieza Nightmare, an uppercut into the air followed by a flurry of punches.
After you beat Frieza, he will return to his ship and fly away. That's the end
of Stage 2.
1.4 Dragon World - Stage 3
Finally, you're on Namek. There are three characters to unlock here, as well as
a special Ability Capsule for Goku that I know you will love. Choose Krillin
for your ally and get ready to battle.
As soon as you can move, put Goku west to the circle with the capsule, and send
Krillin past the Dragon Radar (don't pick it up) over towards the Attack
Increase symbol. Don't worry about the Radar, Goku will get it later.
Goku should be challenged by Vegeta, so fight him, and then move over to his
circle on your next turn to fight him a second time that will end all of his
lives.
*NEW CHARACTER - VEGETA*
It's about time! Finally, we get to use Vegeta, the second most powerful mortal
in the universe.
Vegeta starts off with two basic attacks, Galick Gun and Nose Dive Crash.
Galick Gun is a red version of the Kamehameha that Goku uses, with slightly
different animations. Nose Dive Crash is a one-two-three hit throw. One:
Uppercut. Two: Elbow in the gut. Three: Kick in the back that sends the enemy
flying away.
Vegeta will reappear and say that this time he will help Goku out. Now you have
three "party" members: Goku, Krillin, and Vegeta. Add Kid Gohan and you have
the whole set.
Krillin should have fought Recoome at least once by now. If it's his turn,
attack the second member of the Ginyu Force. This should kill him, but if not,
Recoome'll attack Krillin again and then die. Once he dies, though, Frieza will
get a +10% to both attack and defense, so be warned.
Captain Ginyu will end up attacking Vegeta, so use Goku to get the Dragon
Radar, which should be one circle below him. Use Krillin or Vegeta (after
beating Captain Ginyu) to grab the Dragon Ball, as they will most likely be
closest to it.
*NEW CHARACTER - CAPTAIN GINYU*
If you were wondering when he would be unlocked, now is the time. Vegeta needs
to fight and subsequently kill the leader of the Ginyu Force in order to unlock
him. So get fighting.
Captain Ginyu may or may not use his famous Body Change ability. I don't know,
as he's never used it on me. Maybe that's because he's a wimp and I beat him
real fast.
Aside from Body Change, Ginyu will use Milky Cannon and Ginyu Strike. Milky
Cannon utilizes the same animations as Vegeta's Galick Gun, and Ginyu Strike
looks like Frieza Nightmare if you've seen it.
Frieza will get another +10% to attack and defense, bringing him up to 120
attack and 120 defense. It's not that much, but might make a difference to
thenovice player. Send Krillin out to fight the alien fiend.
Do you see that tower up above Frieza with a Namekian house on it? That's
Guru's house, and if you put Krillin on the circle right next to it, he'll warp
up and get his Unlock Potential ability! This allows him to use his ultimate
move, even though you won't get it until later.
Try to get Frieza down to one or two lives, then let Krillin die. Frieza will
be a bit stronger than the first time you fought him, what with his attack and
defense upgrades, but he will also have that extra health bar. Use Kamehameha
and Jackhammer as much as possible, but in the end, you want Krillin to die.
Upon the death of his best friend, Goku will go into a rage, and get an
increase of *INFO NEEDED - GOKU'S UPGRADES*.
And he gets the Super Saiyan capsule! Equip it right away.
If you haven't gotten the Dragon Ball as of yet, you probably should, although
you don't need to. If you do decide to get it, use Vegeta to get it and Goku to
fight Frieza. Why? Because...
*NEW CHARACTER - FRIEZA*
The third hidden character in this level is indeed Frieza. He comes with two of
the moves he used in Stages 2 and 3, Death Beam and Frieza Nightmare.
After unlocking that third character, Frieza will blow up Namek, but not before
Goku escapes in a Saiyan space pod. If I remember correctly, (I'm writing this
guide during my sixth time through Dragon World) you get Namek as a stage for
Dueling and Practice. Now it's back to Earth and Stage 4.
1.5 Dragon World - Stage 4
Part 1
Back on Earth and ready to fight, Goku arrives to find Dr. Gero (a.k.a. Android
#20) and five custom-made Saiba Rangers waiting for him. You'll get to choose
two allies in this Stage, so grab Piccolo and Krillin (again). Get Goku to
search the ground right away to come up with a peach, which will give him two
moves each turn.
The five Saiba Rangers all have different colors, and despite what you might
think, there is a reason for that. If you battle all five, Goku will have a
little conversation with them. It's not much, but it's funny. The green one
won't talk with Goku, since green is their normal color, but the red, orange,
yellow, and blue ones will.
It doesn't matter who kills which Saiba Rangers, but it does matter who is
positioned where before you fight Dr. Gero. Put Goku and Piccolo on the circle
right in front of the good doctor, and Krillin one circle below. Make sure that
Goku has one move left while the other two have none before Goku fights Dr.
Gero.
*NEW CHARACTER - ANDROID #20*
As an Android, Dr. Gero has enrgy powered moves. His first two are Photon Wave
and Rolling Crush.
Photon Wave is just a blast of yellow of energy from his palm, but Rolling
Crush is a bit more fancy. Dr. Gero punches you into the air, where he grabs
you and turns you both upside down. A corkscrew turn and a plunge into the
ground later, you're lying on the ground and Dr. Gero is charging up his ki.
Part 2
Now that you've defeated their maker, Androids #16, #17, and #18 to take their
turn at killing Goku. #16 appears above Goku while #17 is below. #18 should be
above Piccolo.
You unlock all three, but there is a set pattern you need to follow. As soon as
Android #16 is defeated, Part 2 ends, no matter what you still want to do. So
make sure #17 and #18 are dead first.
*NEW CHARACTER - ANDROID #17*
Piccolo finally gets a turn to unlock a character, so he goes for Android #17.
This guy uses a variety of moves, but you only get to unlock Power Blitz and
Buster Swing.
Power Blitz is a mimic of Photon Wave, just blue instead of yellow. Buster
Swing is a mimic of Goku's Dragonthrow. They look okay, but it's nothing you
haven't seen before.
You'll think that a lot before this game is over. Trust me. Send Piccolo after
the Dragon Radar once #17 is dead.
*NEW CHARACTER - ANDROID #18*
The only female android, and the only female character until MUCH later on in
the game, is Android #18. She has all the same moves as her brother, #17, aside
from one that you won't get until you either buy it from Bulma or win it after
fighting #18 in subsequent visits to Dragon World.
No, I won't tell you what the move is. *cough* Destructo Disc *cough*
Use Krillin to unlock the android. Once she's dead, #18 and Krillin will warp
to the beach, where Krillin will get a goodbye kiss as #18 flies away.
*NEW CHARACTER - ANDROID #16*
Once #17 and #18 have been defeated by Piccolo and Krillin (respectively), send
Goku after Android #16. #16 is a lot like Nappa in the fact that he's large,
slow, and powerful.
He doesn't share any moves with #17 and #18 (thankfully), but comes with his
own unique set. Rocket Punch is pretty self explanatory, and so is Killing Neck
Throw. #16 grabs you by the neck and flings you around a bit before throwing
you to the ground. Self explanatory.
Defeating all three androids ends Part 2, and begins Part 3.
Part 3
Another part?! Yes, and get used to it, there are still three more stages like
this.
Cell will warp in and absorb #17 and #18, becoming Perfect Cell right away. No,
you don't get to see or use his first two forms. I know, I know, it's a rip
off, but what are we going to do?
Along with Cell comes four Cell Jr.'s. One of them will most likely grab the
Dragon Radar if Piccolo wasn't fast enough, but don't worry about it. There are
seven Dragon Balls, but nine Stages, so you can find it later.
The Cell Jr.'s are easy to defeat, once you get used to fighting an enemy half
your size (only if you're Goku or Piccolo, they're the same size as Krillin).
Make Piccolo and Krillin take them out while Goku fights Cell.
*NEW CHARACTER - CELL*
Don't worry, this will be your last battle in Stage 4. Cell is tall and fast,
so get ready for a fast paced battle.
Cell comes with Kamehameha (WHAT?!?) and Lasso, where he grabs your leg, spins
you around, and slams you back into the ground. Kamehameha is just Kamehameha.
He uses both of them, too, and he might use Energy Field as well, though you
won't get it as a capsule till later.
You might get a Super Saiyan 2 capsule for Goku after this fight as well, but
there are other places to get it, so don't worry if you don't get it. Although
you should. Stage 4 is over, so fly off to Stage 5.
1.6 Dragon World - Stage 5
Part 1
Stage 5 takes you to an expanded version of Stage 1. Goku starts off at the
bottom of the screen, in the expanded part of the stage. He'll talk to this guy
who says he's the Supreme Kai. Select two allies, it doesn't matter which, and
get cracking.
Send Goku straight upwards to fight the Supreme Kai while your two allies grab
the armor, sword, and Zenie.
*NEW CHARACTER - SUPREME KAI*
The Supreme Kai is the first character you meet with two extra health bars. But
don't worry about it; he's a real push-over. You can beat the Supreme Kai
without losing a full health bar. Throw a whole bunch of punches his way and
the battle is won.
Shockwave and occasionally Noble Throw are the only moves you will see Supreme
Kai use, if he gets a chance to use any at all. They are also the two moves you
get in the after-battle rewards. Shockwave is a blue energy blast that is only
visible after it hits the enemy. Noble Throw is...well, let's just say it's lame,
shall we?
Lame, just like every other move that the Supreme Kai has. Lame.
Part 2
It turns out that the Supreme Kai was just testing you, and since you beat him,
you now get to face off against Babidi and his henchmen. Well, henchman, since
it's only Dabura under Babidi's spell. Vegeta is there too, but he's by
himself.
You can move up past where the Supreme Kai was, but as soon as you enter the
left-hand side of the screen (the side with Babidi and Dabura), you will
activate Part 3 of this stage. Instead, head to the right to fight Vegeta. When
you beat Vegeta, you should get another Super Saiyan 2 capsule, but if you
didn't get one from Cell in the previous stage, then you should try for this
one. There is only one more try after this stage to get the capsule.
After you beat Vegeta, grab the capsule and the Zenie, then head over towards
Babidi. He'll start talking and bring three new characters onto the stage:
Majin Vegeta, Majin Cell, and Majin Frieza!
In this stage only, if you fight any of the aforementioned newcomers, you will
send energy to Majin Buu's ball. Three battles loses the stage, so just bypass
them and head for the ball. Once Goku gets there, he will attack it and the
stage will end.
1.7 Dragon World - Stage 6
This is the Sky Pier stage. Goku warps in to see Babidi and the three Majin
controlled characters waiting for him. Grab any old ally and get ready to
fight.
You are supposed to catch Babidi, but unless you have a Gameshark or Action
Replay that gives you two or more moves each turn, you won't catch him. So just
use Goku to fight Majin Vegeta and Majin Frieza. Send your ally one circle left
to grab the Dragon Radar and get more health. He will most likely have to fight
Majin Cell, so make sure he is someone you are familiar with. Or not, whatever
you want.
Defeating Majin Vegeta will get to Super Saiyan 2 for Goku if you don't have it
yet. This is the last time you can get it (that I remember), and I suggest you
do your best to get this if you don't already have the capsule. You need SS2 if
you want Goku's ultimate transformation.
Eventually, Babidi will get to the center of the dais at the top of the screen.
There he will summon forth Majin Buu, who subsequently kills Babidi! The three
Majin controlled characters will lose that M on their foreheads, but if you
killed any they will come back, Vegeta with two health but the others with only
one. Fight them for some capsules.
Majin Buu has five health bars, just like the Supreme Kai, while Goku and your
ally will only have three. Don't worry though, Majin Buu is a pushover. If you
know how to use Goku pretty good, you will do fine. Defeating Buu will not
unlock him, however; that is saved for a later date. Instead, he transforms
into Super Buu and you unlock...
!!Super Saiyan 3!!
Goku's ultimate transformation, SS3! You NEED SS2 in order to use SS3, and
unless you are a complete retard, you will have gotten both SS1 and SS2 before
this battle. If not, I feel sorry for you, especially since you are using a
guide.
Oh, and you unlock Sky Pier as a stage for Dueling and Practice.
1.8 Dragon World - Stage 7
Hoo, here we go, inside the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. Piccolo will get Goten and
Trunks to fuse into (bum-bum-bum-bum) Gotenks! Goku and one of his allies (just
grab anyone, it doesn't matter) will appear in the upper left corner. Super Buu
will have his own allies, Frieza and Cell. But you probably won't have to worry
about them.
Move whoever you want wherever you want, but if you want the Dragon Ball send
the ally (whom we'll call Gohan for the hell of it) to the top right carpet.
Grab the capsule (it will be ultra rare; save first, there are quite a few
capsules that you can get here that you won't get anywhere else) and the +10%
attack, and make sure you use the top right carpet when you get to the top
right of the screen. This will take you to the stretch of circles nearest Super
Buu. Underneath the capsule is the Dragon Ball.
Of course, doing all that will take you about 10 turns, and there are other
characters to use in this stage. Super Buu, in he lands on the same spot as
Frieza or Cell, will absorb them! He does get stronger, but not by much.
Gotenks will be instrumental in fighting Super Buu. All you have to do is make
sure Gotenks doesn't kill Buu before you get the Dragon Ball. Unless you want
to get it later. Hey, whatever floats your boat.
Gotenks doesn't have a ki guage, but a clock and a gauge that slowly decreases.
That is the time limit that all fusion characters have, on the show and in the
game. Fortunately, Gotenks doesn't de-transform in the HTC, but he does in
Dueling mode, so watch out for that.
Because of his time guage, Gotenks doesn't have a ki guage. What does that
mean? FIELD TRIP! Well, not really, but since there is no limit on how much ki
you have, you can use ki blasts the entire battle and not have to worry about
running out. Also, Gotenks can transform right from the start of the match
without having to charge up. Just be warned: in order to go Super Saiyan 3, you
have to already be Super Saiyan 1, just power up twice in a row to achieve
ultimate status.
SS3 Gotenks is actually kind of hard to use. His best moves make use of button
combinations that take a while to master, but become second nature after you've
played the game for a long time. I've gone through Dragon World seven times by
this point in writing this walkthrough, so I know all of his moves by heart.
You will too, after a while.
Once you beat Super Buu (whether he has absorbed Frieza and/or Cell or not), he
will absorb Gotenks to become Fusion Buu, then warp out. Let's head to Stage 8
to meet up with Gohan and the Supreme Kai. You should also get the Hyperbolic
Time Chamber capsule for Dueling and Practice modes.
1.9 Dragon World - Stage 8
Part 1
Goku warps in to find his supposedly dead older son still alive, and with his
inner power finally unlocked in the form of the "Elder Kai's Unlock Ability"
capsule. You need to get Goku on the same circle as the Supreme Kai in order to
pass the first part of this stage. Your ally can be anyone.
Super Buu has two moves in this level, a side effect of absorbing Gotenks. Get
Gohan to head north and lead Super Buu towards the upper area of the stage. You
will eventually have to fight him, so get ready.
Now, there are two different endings to this stage, depending on who you beat
Super Buu with and which form he is in. If you defeat him with Gohan, you will
unlock the City Streets capsule, which is another Dueling and Practice stage. I
advise losing to Super Buu after kicking his, um, posterior region, two or
three times. That way, you will get to fight him but still get other capsules
and characters. Besides, you WILL have to go through Dragon World again. Many
times.
But don't worry, Gohan won't have to die until part 2.
Part 2
Hehe, sorry about that. Gohan will die, but Goku have gotten the Potara
Earrings from the Supreme Kai, and Vegeta will have warped in. The two
friends/enemies (make up your mind, Vegeta!) need to meet up. Do so to get
Vegito!
Part 3
That was fast. Anyway, Vegito will now be your main character, and Gohan should
be dead, leaving Super Buu even more powerful than before. But Vegito has five
health bars, just like Buu, so this match will be a breeze. Since Vegito has
190 attack, and Buu will have about 140, that only decreases the difficulty you
will have. Use Spirit Sword to do a whopping amount of damage, and try to beat
Buu at least twice, just like on the show. Besides, becoming Super Vegito takes
up the same amount of ki as a SS2 fighter, so watch out. Check out the Fusions
section near the end of the walkthrough for more Vegito info, if you need it.
Like I said, Buu should be a breeze, so defeat him to get a new enemy. That's
right, Kid Buu! He'll warp out, and you'll follow him to the Supreme Kai's
planet.
1.10 Dragon World - Stage 9
You are Goku again, even though Super Buu didn't absorb like he did in the
show. And you can't refuse with Vegeta into Vegito, so don't even try. It'll
just be a waste of time. If you tried to get Gotenks after Stage 7, then you
know what I'm talking about. You get two allies, so get one of them to be
Gohan, and the other should someone strong that you're familiar with. The Mr.
Popo carpet leads you to Kid Buu, so only take it if you want to get this Stage
over with.
There are four packs of Zenie, between 200 and 1000 in amount, so get that,
then move on the fighting. Goku should go south to activate Frieza warping in,
along with two Cell Junior's. Past the Dende point is Frieza, guarding a warp
point that leads you to Kid Buu, just like the one to the north. Instead of
using it, though, head north one more circle to get the Z-Sword, an attack
upgrade for Goku and Gohan. There are some capsules and Zenie, but don't worry
about them; the Cell Jr.'s will get them long before you get a chance to.
Gohan, after getting the Zenie in that top region, should head to the right to
activate Cell and two more Cell Jr.'s, if one of the other Cell Jr.'s haven't
already done so. Cell also guards a carpet warp point to Kid Buu. Defeat Cell
with Gohan to unlock Teen Gohan!
*NEW CHARACTER - TEEN GOHAN*
Finally, another character! While Gohan is more like Goku in his overall
fighting style, Teen Gohan reflects his old mentor Piccolo. Moves like Fierce
Ranma and Instant Killquick make a reappearance, just like in the original
Budokai. But you only get Kamehameha and High-Speed Hammer, Teen Gohan's throw.
It looks like Kid Trunks Grand Impulse. Yeah.
