Hint: Story mode replay:
Once you have completed story mode once, you will notice that there are some people missing, except for Gohan as a super hero and Hercule who get unlocked in world championship mode. Go back to story mode and you will see what you have done instead of starting a new story. Some of the episodes will have "New" beside them. Go into those episodes to get new players and new player abilities, such as a Super Saiyan for Vegeta.

Hint: Tournament wins:
When in Tournaments, instead of trying to kill the CPU opponents, just lure them close to the edge of the ring. Tap X + Down to move behind the opponent, then use a strong move to knock them out the ring.

The best way to take out an opponent in tournament mode. is to do your P(4), E attack several times, until you knock them out. Another way to win is to get near the end of the ring, and when they approach you, press Down + X until you switch sides with them. You can then knock them out of the ring with a strong attack, such as a kick combo.

At the start of the match, press P(3), K. This will knock your opponent into the air. Tap Forward(2) to fly up there, then press P to bash them down. If they do not fall out of the ring at first, bash them again.

Select any character (for example, Goku). Lure the opponent to the edge, get behind him, and try to knock him into the air. Before he falls, hit a Kamehameha and if you are in the correct position, it will knock him out.

To pick up a cheap win, play as Kid Gohan or Krillin. When you get matches with Recoome and other larger characters, most of their punches and kicks will not hit you.

Use this trick for a faster win in the world tournament level. You can do this with any character in the game. When you first start, it shows them posing and getting ready to fight, when the word "Ready?" appears, start pressing Left(2) or Right(2) quickly, depending on what side of screen you are on. Your opponent will start moving backwards closer to the edge of the ring. When the word "Fight!" appears, use the P(2)K(2)E move and they will go flying out of the ring. If you do not get the first punch, you are on your own.

If you are at the edge of the ring and your opponent is about to knock you off, do your character's grab technique. Oddly enough, every time you execute a throw in tournament mode, it sends you and your opponent straight back to the middle of the ring.

Keep pressing Forward + R1 until your opponent is out of the ring.

Use Teen Gohan (recommended), Goku, or Cell. Use kick combos to get them to the end of the ring, then use a Kamehameha or a few kicks or punches and they will fly out.

Hint: Taunts:
Taunting (press P + K + G + E) will lower your opponent's Ki gauge by 1.

Hint: Easy way to turn Super Saiyan:
Get the Super Saiyan ability, then press R1 + R2 to transform. This can be used for anyone's type of transformation. Note: This can also be used to do the King Kai Fist and Unlock Potential.

Hint: Attack boost:
Add a Senzu Bean with Sayian Heritage. Your attack will be boosted after the Senzu Bean is used. A normal bean takes up 3.

Hint: Power up:
Hold X, then press Away.
Information in this section was contributed by Lanni515.

Hint: Easier combos:
If you are doing a combo that your having trouble with (for example, the Super Kamahamaha (K(2), Right + K, K, E), hold the D-pad and press the rest of the moves and it will put in the arrows. For example, hold Right and press K(2), K(2), E.

Hint: Extra Zenie:
When you complete The Legend Of Hercule, the points you earn will be turned into Zenie.

Hint: Allow two player custom skill level on one memory card:
At the character selection screen in duel mode, have player one choose a character first. Then, choose the custom skill setting. Then, take the memory card in slot one and move it to memory card slot two. Player two can now choose a custom skill setting without having two memory cards.

Hint: The Dragon Balls:
Within the game you can collect the seven Dragon Balls. In order to get them, you have to buy them at Mr. Popo's shop. However, they are very rare. They cost 8000 Zenie each and will only appear in a "Recommended" or "Gambled" Capsule. After collecting all seven, go to the Caps List option in the "Edit Skills" menu. Then go along to the second to last list. If all seven Dragon Balls are present, press X and you will be asked if you wish to summon Shenron. Select "Yes" and you will be given the option to "Breakthrough" three random characters. Breakthrough is a Capsule which will open all the Death Moves, Transformations, and Physical Moves of the character in possession. However, it takes up seven ability slots and cannot be equipped in conjunction with anything else. After choosing your character, the Dragon Balls will disappear and you will have to collect them all again.

If you do not like the random choice of three characters that Shenron powers-up, restart the PlayStation2. All your Dragon Balls will still be there when the game is resumed. Summon Shenron again until you like the choice of the three random characters.

Hint: Get Dragon Balls quicker:
Go to the Skill Shop and go down to the "Recommended" section. It will tell you what item it is. If it is not a Dragon Ball, exit and re-enter the shop again. The Recommended item will have changed. Keep repeating this until you see a Dragon Ball in the Recommended section. Make sure you have enough money, as each Dragon Ball costs 8,000 Zenie.

After you complete story mode, go back to it. Go to Saiyan Sage episode 3, Saiyan Attack. You will play as Piccolo. You will first face five Saibaimen. Defeat them. Next, you have to face Nappa. You will only have two thirds health though. Defeat Nappa. Return and do this again as many times as you desired. Every time you defeat Nappa the first time without losing, you will get a Dragon Ball capsule.

Go to the tournament and win a lot of Zenie. Then, go to Mr. Popo's shop and buy everything in the "Recommended" section. Eventually, you will acquire the maximum amount of every capsule (9) and force the CPU to give you nothing but Dragon Balls. This takes a lot of time, but eventually you will get every breakthrough and stack every character's capsules up to 9, making them as strong as possible.

Hint: Keep and reuse the seven Dragon Balls:
This trick requires three memory cards.

1. Save the original game on the memory card A, then save it again on memory card B or copy it from the PlayStation2 browser.
2. Create a new game and save it on memory card C.
3. Go to "Trade Skills" under "Edit Skills" with memory cards B and C and in the PlayStation2. Trade the Dragon Balls from memory card B to memory card C.
4. Remove memory card B and replace it with memory card A. Go to the "Skills List", find the Dragon Balls, and use them on the desired character.
5. Return to "Trade Skills" and trade the Dragon Balls from the memory card C to memory card A.
6. Repeat steps 1, 3, 4, and 5 until you have all breakthroughs for every character.
Alternately, use the following steps, which only require two memory cards.

1. Get all Dragon Balls on memory card A, then save.
2. Save it also on memory card B.
3. Use the Dragon Balls on memory card A on a character.
4. Trade Dragon Balls from memory card B to memory card A.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until you have all attacks for all the characters
Alternately, use the following steps with three memory cards.

1. On memory card A (the one that you want all the breakthroughs for), get all the Dragon Balls.
2. Make a new game on memory card B, then trade the Dragon Balls from A to B and save.
3. Copy the information from memory card B to a new memory card (C).
4. Trade the Dragon Balls from memory card C to memory card A. Then call up Shenron on memory card A and choose a breakthrough.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 to get all the Capsules.
Hint: Adept Tournament Capsule:
Play in Novice mode and become number one. Go to Mr. Popo's shop. You will see a gray Capsule for 8000 Zenie. It is Adept mode.

Hint: Advanced Tournament Capsule:
Play in Adept mode and become number one. Go to Mr. Popo's shop. You will see a gray Capsule for 8000 Zenie. It is Advanced mode.

Hint: Frieza's Space Ship Capsule:
Get 12,000 Zenie go to "Recommended" in Mr. Popo's shop. When you see Frieza's Space Ship. pay the 12,000 Zenie. This Capsule takes three spaces in Frieza's slot. When you die, Frieza's Space Ship appears and restores everything. It also transforms you into Cyber Frieza.

Play through the Namekian Saga under the hardest difficulty setting and defeat Frieza at all times without losing once. The Capsule at the end should be Frieza's Space Ship.

Hint: Gero's Perpetual Energy Capsule:
To get unlimited energy, go to Mr. Popo's shop and go to the recommended section. Leave and return until Gero's Perpetual Energy appears. Every character can use it, but no transformations are allowed.

Hint: The Legend Of Hercule (Mr. Satan) Capsule:
Unlock Hercule and go to the Mr. Popo's shop. Buy the "Advanced Tournament" Capsule and the one that appears next is "The Legend Of Hercule". It is a new fighting mode, where you recreate the events that the public believed happened during the "Cell Games Saga".

When you select Legend Of Hercule, make sure you have a Senzu Bean and custom Hercule. When you get to fight Goku, your health will not replenish when you fight Gohan and Cell.

Hint: Red Capsule:
On world championship mode, if you win you get 10,000 Zenie and second place gets you 5,000 Zenie. This is useful because when you go to the shop and buy the Red Capsule, you will get some very good moves such as Super Saiyan Trunks, Kamahamaha for Krillen, and even Super Saiyan Level 2 for Gohan.

Hint: Super Trunks 2 Capsule:
There is a capsule to get Super Trunks 2. It is stronger then Super Trunks and is very helpful when fighting in the tournaments. You can purchase this from Mr. Popo. The "Recommended" capsule section is the best place to find it. Exit in and out of the purchase screen and the recommended capsule should eventually appear as Super Trunks 2.

First, buy the Capsule for the Adept level for World Tournament mode. Then, complete the Adept level with Trunks. When you go in the Skill Shop, the Super Trunks 2 capsule will be there for you to buy at the bottom as a Recommended Capsule.

Hint: Trunks' Mystery Fiber Jacket Capsule:
One of the rarest capsules in the game, this can be obtained by buying the recommended capsule at Mr. Popo's shop or by completing the Androids Saga episode: A New Threat.

Hint: Extra capsule slot:
When selecting Capsules for any Saiyan, half Saiyan (except Saiyanman), or Cell, you can trick the CPU into giving you an extra slot. First, use four slots for anything, then use the 1/3 Sensu Bean and Saiyan Heritage. There should be an empty slot at seven. Next, replace the 1/3 Sensu Bean for a normal Bean. In effect, you will get a full Sensu Bean for two slots instead of three. You cannot trick the CPU into changing the new eighth slot into anything else.

Hint: Getting Capsules easier:
Go to story mode after you finish it. Finish any desired level and you should get a Capsule. Although you cannot choose the Capsule that you get, you might get a new Capsule that you need.

In order to collect all the Capsules and even the Dragonballs without playing in World Tournament Mode consistently to attain the money for them, just continue to play story mode after you have unlocked all the chapters. You will continue to receive capsules each time you play, and sometimes even a free Dragonball. Eventually, you will have the maximum of every capsule and force the CPU to give you Dragonballs. To make it even more simple, find a chapter such as number 9 in the Namekian Saga (Raging Frieza) that gives you three Capsules each time you complete it. The only capsules you will ever have to buy in Mr. Popo's shop are the two World Tournament Capsules for Adept and Advanced, and The Legend of Hercule Capsule.

Hint: Burst Zone:
When fighters simultaneously connect with an Energy Punch, you enter Burst Zone. You will know when this is happening by the speed at which both warriors are attacking and blocking. Rotate the Left Analog-stick as quickly as possible. If you are the fastest, you will deliver a powerful knock-back attack on your opponent upon exiting the Burst Zone.

The easiest way to win in the Burst Zone is when you enter it, spin both the Left Analog-stick and Right Analog-stick as fast as possible. This has the same effect as pressing the directional buttons and command buttons all at the same time, but a lot easier to do.

Hint: Easy transformations:
For easier transformations, enter the options screen. Select the controller option then move over to "Custom". Hold L1 and press Left or Right until you see P + K + G (the transformation buttons). You will now have L1 as a transformation button. Note: You can do the same thing with taunts; just press Left or Right or left until you find P K G E.

To transform with any character easier, press L1 + X. Your character will instantly transform into a stronger character.

Select "Controller" at the options screen and press X. Then, press Right until you get to "Custom". Then, hold L1 and press Left(2). P + K + G should be displayed. Begin game play, then press L1 and you should transform into your next stage.

Hint: Transformations:
You may have already noticed that your character will be knocked out of his Super Saiyan Transformation when his Ki gauge goes anywhere below 3. By knowing this, you can determine several things in a battle. Note: Super Saiyan 2 Transformations also are knocked out at Ki gauge 3. Also, this has almost the same effect with Cell and Frieza's Forms.

Hint: Easy win:
To easily defeat an opponent, go to "Edit Skills" and give your character a Viral Heart Disease Capsule and a Vaccine Capsule. The Vaccine Capsule negates the effects of the Viral Heart Disease Capsule on your player, and only your opponent will get their life drained.

Fight through the story mode and/or the tournament mode until you can get the Senzu Bean, Viral Heart Disease, Vaccine, and Kamehameha skills. Equip all four skills on Goku, Gohan, or Krillin. When you now fight in a duel, allow your opponent to knock your health down to zero. By this time, the Viral Heart Disease should have depleted his health down to half of the last bar. The Senzu Bean will replenish all of your health and energy. Finish off your opponent with a four-punch combo and a Kamehameha.

Go into the options menu and set "Difficulty" to "Very Easy", "Com" to "Very Weak", equip the Vaccine, Viral Heart Disease, and a Senzu Bean, Set the time limit to 30 seconds.. When the match starts, dodge for the first fifteen seconds. The last fifteen seconds should deplete your opponent's health. When the clock reaches zero, if you have not been knocked out of the ring, you will be declared the winner.

This trick do the maximum amount of damage and requires a controller with an auto-fire feature and Gero's Perpetual Energy R&D. This can be with any character. Equip Gero's Perpetual Energy R&D, then go to practice. Knock the CPU down. While the CPU is down, set Circle to auto-fire for the Ki Blast Wave. It will do damage over 10,000 and combos over 100.

Choose a small-sized character, such as Krillin or Gohan. Equip him with Vaccine and Viral Heart Disease and set the tournament to last thirty seconds. When you enter the tournament with your custom character, the opponent's health will be going down. When the thirty seconds are up, you will win. This is a very easy way to get Great Sayiaman or money.

When fighting in any match, press Guard until your opponent tries to throw a punch or kick. Then, as quickly as possible, press Punch(3) then blast. Then, knock him or her down with a kick combo. When an opponent is charging up their energy, use this time to back away and be ready for them to charge at you.

Go to the options screen and turn the difficulty all the way down. Try to block as many punches as you can, let your opponent come to you. Try to think as the Z-fighters would. Do the basic attacks Punch(3), Energy. It knocks the other fighter down so you can gather Ki, or go in the fighters face and kill them; or knock them out of the ring.

At the start of the match, press Punch(3), Kick. This will knock your opponent into the air. Tap Forward(2) to fly up there, then press Forward to knock the opponent out of the ring. Punch also works, but Forward is stronger. If it does not work, try it again.

When doing a "death move" such as the Kamehameha, Buster Cannon, Destructive Wave, Photon Shot, Power Blitz, etc., press Start at the moment just before it explodes on your opponent. The move will cause more damage. This may require some practice.

Unlock Gt. Saiyaman, and use Justice Punch then Justice Kick.

To get an easy win with any character in tournament mode, equip him with Gero's Perpetual Energy R&D, Vaccine, Viral Heart Virus, a specialty move (such as Galick Gun , Kamehameha , Destructive Wave, or Warp Kamehameha). When you battle, your opponent's life will go down, but not yours, from the virus. Because you have the Perpetual Energy R&D, you can do your specialty move as many times as desired after a punch combo. Also, since your Ki is always maxed out, when you block it will not go down and you will not take damage.

This tactic may take some time to complete, but it is worth it. First, set the timer to 30 seconds. Next, select any character and customize him with a vest of any kind, Viral Heart Disease, and Vaccine. Enter the Advanced Martial Arts Tournament, select the character that you customized, and send him into battle. Once started, just let your opponent knock you down. When you are on the ground hold Down to stay there. The CPU will try to punch, kick, and do other moves, but will not hit you. You can stay on the ground and the time will run to zero. The heart problem will take care of your opponent. The opponent may hit you a few times, but it will hurt you very much, if any. You can win all the matches in about five minutes and get 50,000 zenie quickly. Repeat this to get more money.

Hint: Defeating Cell in Final Battle:
When the battle starts, notice that you have one third of your health missing. Immediately hit Cell with a Super Kamehameha wave (Kick(3), Forward, Kick, Energy). This should knock out about half his health. Be careful, If you get too far ahead of Cell in health, he will turn into a killing machine. After the wave hits, get rid of the rest of Cell's life by doing punch combos.

Keep using physical attacks without using special moves. Eventually his guard will break and you will do more damage. This requires some practice, but you will eventually win.

Hint: Defeating Cell in all forms:
As soon as you start, back up. Your opponent should run attack. Jump back and Kick(3). Repeat this until all his health is depleted.

Hint: Legend of Hercule:
Put a Sensu Bean on Hercule before you start. You will be revived, but only during the Goku, Gohan, and Cell fights. You will just die in the other battles.

Hint: Grassland level: Make a large bolder fall on enemy:
When battling in practice or duel mode in the Grassland, you will notice two large boulders placed on opposite ends of the arena. Push your opponent towards them and get very close to the boulders. Do a combo move that ends with a power strike facing towards the boulder. You can also hold Forward and hold R1 for a few seconds to charge up a hit, then release, causing a power punch. This will cause the enemy to go flying into the boulder. You may have to move around to find the correct point to send them flying into. You will see a short intermission with the bolder breaking off of the mountain and falling on top of them. You can also do this to the other boulder on the opposite side of the arena. This will also give a smaller battling range once the boulder is removed. To do this again, just return to the arena. Note: This bolder does 500 damage to the opponent. Also, if you look closely at the mountain, you will notice there is a cracked portion. Slam them in the middle of the cracked portion and it should break off, doing 500 damage and falling on them.

Hint: Kami's Lookout level: Easy opponent damage:
Get your opponent to the edge of the lookout, then do a strong attack. They will fall off and you will follow them down. This will take off about half their green life bar.

Hint: Restore life:
To get life without going into the rejuvenation chamber on Namek, go up closely to the chamber without going in. You should see your life bar fill.

Hint: Powering up:
Hold X and tap Back(2), and hold Back after you tap it again.

Hint: Destroying arenas:
If you enter any battlefield with walls that touch against the field, push your opponent against the wall and do an Elbow Smash (Toward + Toward Hold + Punch) or some other hard hitting attack. Your opponent will be smashed into the wall, dealing the damage of the attack as well as an added bonus. This can also be done for higher walls and moves that will knock somebody outside of the ring.

To make an arena a smoldering crater, select a character with an Ultimate Move (for example Goku's Spirit Bomb or Trunks' Burning attack). Then, use the Ultimate Move. Note: You cannot destroy the World Tournament, Hyperbolic Time Chamber, or Kami's Lookout (when you are actually on the Lookout) arenas.

Go to versus or practice mode and choose a character that has an Ultimate Attack, such as Trunks or Frieza. Use it on a character and after the blast you should see that Planet Namek is almost about to blow up with lightning and tornadoes.

Use a powerful energy attack to turn any battle into a desert wasteland. The following attacks can do this: Perfect Cell's Spirit Bomb, Trunks' Burning Attack, Android #16's Hell Flash. Deathball and other attacks should also have the same effect.

To obliterate the Cell Games arena, choose either duel or practice mode (recommended). Play as Teen Gohan and press Kick(2), Right, Kick(2) for the Super Kamehameha in Super Saiyan 2.

You actually can destroy Kami's lookout. Use a Spirit Bomb to turn it into a crater. When battling, equip a fire Ki Blast Wave capsule x2 to hit them with 16 hits. If you can equip a character with a Long Combo x2, it will do a 42 hit combo (only with Tien, Goku, Gohan, Trunks, and Cell).

Hint: Hidden area:
You can destroy Kami's lookout with Goku's Spirit Bomb or Hercules' Present For You. After you destroy it, you will fight in an area with a lot of dirt and a few mountains.

On the island stage, hit your opponent into the rocks once or twice. They will shatter and you will fall into a cave-like stage with waterfalls in the background.

Hint: Field transformation:
When playing as Trunks in practice mode, go to the grass land and use his burning attack. You will fight in a hole that Trunks made with his attack and the trees will be burned to a crisp.

Hint: Android 17 and Android 18: Extra damage with Power Blitz:
When you do a Power Blitz close up, pause game play just before it hits your opponent. Resume the game and it will do up to a full bar of damage.

Hint: Android 17 and 18: Recommended skills:
If you choose not to use, or do not have the Breakthrough Capsule for Android 17 and 18, these are a very good substitute. By giving them all these capsules, it will have every one of the attacks that come with their Breakthrough capsules except for Buster Swing (#17/18). This is not included because its main use is to cause damage if you have low Ki or to buy time to gain Ki. With Gero's Perpetual Energy R&D, #17/18 will never lose any Ki on any energy attack. You may want to experiment with switching out Power Strike with a Senzu Bean if desired.

Power Blitz (#17/18)
Energy Field (#17/18)
Gero's Perpetual Energy R&D
Power Falling Star (#17/18)
Power Strike (#17/18)

Hint: Cell: Recommended skills:
Kamahmaha
Kamahmaha
Second Form
Perfect Form
Spirit Bomb (Cell)
Improved Special Clothing (or Andriod Barrier)
2/3 Senzu Bean

Hint: Freiza: Recommended skills:
Final Form
100% Final Form
Death Ball
Freiza's Space Ship (Freiza returns to life as a cyborg, and your life bar fills up completely. You can also use the Death Ball in this form.)

Hint: Ginyu: Recommended skills:
Milky Cannon x 2
Geros Perpetual Energy
Potential

Hint: Gohan: 45-hit combo:
Have Gohan's Throw skill and Fierce Ranma skill or his Breakthrough Capsule. Grab your opponent, and when he is falling do the Fierce Ranma ability (Kick(2), Away, Kick, Energy) and Gohan will launch into the attack.


Hint: Goku: Recommended skills:
King Kai Fist x2
Kamehameha
Warp Kamehameha
Senzu Bean
Senzu Bean (takes up two slots)
Viral Heart Disease
Vaccine
To perform the most powerful attack in the game all you have to do is edit Goku with:

King Kai Fist x2
King Kai Fist x5
King Kai Fist x10
Spirit Bomb
Spirit Bomb
Saiyan Spirit
Super Kami Water
After you charge up to King Kai Fist x10, your attack will increase to 190%. Then, do the Spirit bomb and you will do 2280 damage.

Another way to get a high attack with Goku is as follows:

Sprit Bomb
Saiyan Spirit
Super Kami Water
Potential
King Kai Fist x2
King Kai Fist x5
This should get you about up to 220. If you do a lot of up close battles and do not like the combo energy attacks, you can switch the Spirit Bomb with King Kai Fist x 10. You can also exchange the Spirit Bomb for a move that moves a bit faster, reducing the block percentage.

Another set-up is as follows:
Warp Kamehameha x2
Kamehameha x2
Viral heart Disease
Vaccine
Use Super Dragon Fist x2 and you will have an over 40 hit combo.

These skills will make Goku so strong that he gets an attack power of 200, which is the highest in the game.

King Kai Fists x2 to x10
Super Sayian
Super Kami Water
Saiyan Spirit
Set up the following Capsules:

Kamehameha x2
Warp Kamehameha
King Kai Fist 2
King Kai Fist 5
King Kai Fist 10
Super Saiyan
Hint: Goku: Easy win:
Use the following trick to win a match of any kind with Goku. First, unlock the capsule for Warp Kamameha. Then (optional), get a lot of item capsules such as Saiyan Spirit to power-up Goku. Go to "Edit Skills" and give Goku Warp Kamameha and any other desired skills. Then, when you pick your character, choose custom Goku. When the match starts, use Warp Kamameha. When your opponent is down, recharge your Ki (press X + Away(2) and hold). Repeat the process and you should win with three or four Warp Kamamehas.

Hint: Goku or Vegeta: Recommended skills:
Spirit Bomb
Spirit Bomb
Saiyin Spirit
Super Kami Water
Potential
King Kai Fist x2
Wait until Potential gives you the full 30% to your power and it should be about 200% or 210%. Then, use the Spirit Bomb and it will do 2520 damage. Do the same with Vegeta, but with Big Bang and Super Saiyan.

Hint: Hercule: Easy tournament win:
Get your opponent near the edge and use Dynamite Kick. The last kick should knock him out.

Go to the tournament and get up to five Ki gauges. Press X, Square, Triangle (High Tension), then quickly press X(2), Left +X, Left +X (Present For You). Use this strategy to get easy victories in the tournament or "The Legend Of Hercule".

This trick requires High Tension and Hercule's special and works on any level in tournament mode. First, push your opponent back with punches until you get them about five feet away from the edge. By then, you should have enough to power up to High Tension. As soon as you get the chance, execute Hercule's special. The move will make Hercule drop his exploding device and launch him straight at the opponent, which should knock them out of the ring. If not, you can pick up from there; since the attack takes off at least one bar of health, you can just beat them instead. Another to win instead of using the Hercule special, do the same steps as in the first part of the strategy, then push your opponent to the end of the ring with punches. Then, do the Dynamite Kick. If you are not too close to the edge, it will knock the opponent out. However, if you are too close, the move will change or turn a different direction when it is being performed.

Hint: Hercule: Easy win:
When the match starts, use Present For You. When your opponent is down, recharge your Ki. Do not turn to Super Saiyan as this will make your Ki decrease slowly. Repeat the process three or four times and you will win.

Use the following trick to win in advanced tournament mode. Before the fight starts (when you can see yourself and your opponent), move towards them and press Punch very fast. You will get a slight edge by punching the opposition early. Punch four times then press Energy (Dynamite Kick). Hercule will jump up, do a kick move, and then do a big kick and knock the opponent back on the ground. Run up and do the Dynamite Kick as many times as needed to kick them back and out of the ring. Note: When you knock them back the first time, you can knock them out easily by pressing the D-Pad towards them twice, and on the second time, hold it. You will jump in the air and fly very fast towards them. Then, by either pressing Kick ,R1, or Punch, it will hit them (with some timing) out of the ring.

Hint: Trunks: Recommended skills:
The strongest possible move in the game will take away 2999 points of damage. Each character starts off with 3000 points of life. In order to do this give Trunks:

Super Saiyan
Burning Attack
Burning Attack
Super Kami Water
Potential
Mixed Blood Power
Once in a fight, use his Burning Attack. It will leave your opponent with 1 point of life. Just one more hit and they are done.

Hint: Trunks: Easy tournament win:
For a ring out, use Punch(2), Kick(2) to knock your opponent close to the edge of the ring. Next, use a series of kicks, or Punch, Kick to knock them out. For a knock out, once you get Super Trunks, Super Trunks2, and Super Saiyan, this will be easy. At the start of the match, turn Super Saiyan instantly. Every second counts. Gather your energy by powering up or repeatedly attacking your opponent. Launch a Burning Attack. Doing this should weaken him. You can then avoid losing by staying away from the edge and knocking your opponent's lights out. Also, once you get Dr. Gero's Perpetual Energy R&D move, equip Trunks with it. Then, have two Burning Attacks, a Finish Buster, and a Senzu Bean. If you have any more slots, equip as them as desired. Then, once the match begins, you can have nonstop Burning Attacks until your opponent is defeated. Note: With this move, transformation is impossible. All the special moves listed can be bought at Mr. Popo's skill shop.
