Overview

After the battle with Cell, Son Gohan (AKA Sun Wufan) grew into a kind young man and a brilliant scholar, happily married to his high school sweetheart Videl Satan (the daughter of Mr. Satan), with a young daughter named Pan. Even though he does not train with the same fervor and passion as Goku and Vegeta, his hidden potential (after being released by the Elder Supreme Kai) still remains; when it comes to blows, Gohan can still fight with the best of them.

In Dragon Ball FighterZ, the adult version of Gohan plays similarly to his younger counterpart, but with one unique distinction: Gohan's Potential Unleashed increases his power up to seven levels. With each level of his potential unlocked, Gohan's hitstrings and special moves become more powerful, allowing him to execute even more damaging combos.

Potential Unleashed

When Potential Unleashed is used, Gohan levels up, giving him improved abilities and damage. Gohan always begins every match at level 0, and can gain up to 7 levels.

Strengths/Weaknesses

Strengths Weaknesses
  • Extremely well-rounded; has good projectiles, solid ranged normals a powerful pressure/mixup game which overall give him solid neutral.
  • Potential Unleashed provides him with several benefits, including adding more hits to his special moves, modifying his auto combos, and granting him the ability to break the Z Combo chain (Reverse Beat).
  • For a power-up type of character, Adult Gohan starts off surprisingly competent with most of his tools already unlocked, making his power-up optional to get an exceptional character.
  • One of the few characters to have a meterless reversal.
  • Fastfalling creates excellent mixups/cross-ups that can open up and punish opponents easily, as well as controlling his aerial momentum.
  • Extremely solid blockstrings and mix-ups, both with and without assists, thanks to j.2S, j.236X, 214X, his low-hitting 5L (fastest low in the game at 6 frames), and pressure resetting normals in 2L and 5LLLL.
  • Only character to have a ground launcher that is considered an anti-air yet does not use Smash property (3H and 5LLL).
  • Grounded ki blast beats super dashes with his Masenko being an excellent fullscreen beam projectile.
  • Midscreen he has above average damage at level 0, arguably the best damage in the game leveled up, and in the corner has the best damage in the game with j.236X loops.
  • Without level 1, he does not have access to some of his strongest tools.
  • Leveling up to level 1 changes the way his j.236H pressure works, making it worse and turning it into a double-edged sword.
  • Level 7 is extremely costly to obtain and all investments into it are lost when Gohan goes down (though he will still have his levels when revived by Shenron).
  • Shortest-ranged Lvl. 1 super in the game, which is also among the lowest damaging; gives him little-to-no utility when it comes to his selection of supers.
  • Assist is somewhat difficult to utilize thanks to its poor range and hitstun.
  • Long whiff recovery on some moves, thus he must commit to some of his options especially on block.
  • Extremely technical, as many of his combos and block strings require tight execution.
