Overview
Named in honor of his father's adoptive grandfather, Son Gohan (AKA Sun Wufan) is the firstborn son of Goku. Even as a young child, Gohan possessed hidden reservoirs of power that he could tap into when his anger is stoked. Young Gohan abhorred violence, but always came to the aid of his father and their friends when the need arose, eventually becoming the first to attain the state of Super Saiyan 2 during his battle against the villainous android Cell. (Name trivia: Comes from Japanese word "Gohan", meaning "rice", or a general term for food, and also comes from Son Wuhan from **Journey to the West**.)
In Dragon Ball FighterZ, the younger version of Gohan is a fast and powerful fighter who makes up for his lack of range with overwhelming strength that can subdue careless opponents quickly.
Strengths/Weaknesses
Strengths
Weaknesses
Some of the highest damage potential in the game, making every hit count. He's very good at getting ToDs as a result.
Lots of pressure potential with j.236x series, especially j.236H. Combined with his high meterbuild, Gohan is going to make you guess for a long time.
High meter gain.
Very good corner carry due to bomb loop combos, and he can get them off of almost any stray hit, allowing him to force the opponent into disadvantage at almost any time he wants.
Good assist for vertical neutral control.
What the fuck is that L autocombo!?
Stubby limbs that equal short-ranged normals require strong spacing awareness in neutral.
His best combos don't end with sliding knockdown without spending extra resources. While his meterbuild is high, he ends up being a bit of a meter hog as a result, and without the right assists his endings can falter as a result.
Needs assists to function well: combo routes, 50/50s, and neutral.
Some of his combos can be very tight with hitstun, making them easy to drop sometimes. While this is something that can be overcome, it is still something to keep in mind - one small slip could be Gohan giving up advantage altogether.
Good reach for a 5L, will catch opponents after a blocked superdash.

Launches on hit.
Recovers in the air. Leaves Gohan high enough after the recovery to airdash over most crouching characters and cross them up.

O M N I D I R E C T I O N A L T R A C K I N G
Tracks vertically to almost super jump height and has long horizontal range.
On hit, can sides switch midscreen by delaying followups.
Has head property.
Doesn't receive landing recovery from 5LL, but any followups will.
There is no escape.
Teen Gohan's infamous autocombo. This is a very useful tool in neutral, as delaying the hits will allow Gohan to float up further and catch opponents. Typically crosses up opponents trying to IAD over Gohan as well.
If blocked in the air, 236L will lock the opponent and follow them all the way down to the ground. Gohan is plus and can continue a string after this. If blocked on the ground, Gohan can go straight into 236M or 236H for pressure.
A slide with below average range and speed compared to other slides. The range is increased considerably when performed from a dash, including micro-dashes.
Ki blast that explodes only when it touches the ground. The explosion also has Ki blast property.
Ki blast on the way down keeps grounded opponent standing, ground bounces airborne opponent. Explosion always launches.
[2]S leaps backward, 2S and 3S leap forward. Leaps keep all momentum if Gohan is also moving in the same direction.
Recovers in the air.
The directional input is what controls which way he moves. So if you tap 2 but hold S, he still moves forward. His j.2S also has similar quirk but with different directional inputs.
Most combo notations use 1S to refer to backward leap, and 3S for forward leap.
j.[1]S leaps backward, j.1S and j.2S leap forward.
j.S > j.2[S] will cause Gohan to kara cancel his next j.S with j.2S, the tiny momentum difference between a normal j.2S and a j.2S kara cancelled from j.S enables some advanced combos that would otherwise be impossible.
236L/M on hit can press L/M/H for extra attacks. Each followup switches sides.
Doesn't have Head property.

Reaches almost fullscreen.
On block, can cross over crouching opponent. Can't steal the corner and doesn't work on big bodies.
On hit, sends the opponent flying.
If Gohan is pushing against crouching opponent in midscreen, this will hit from their back. With small bodies only standing next to them is enough, but bigger characters require forward momentum.

A tiny bit shorter than 236M.
On hit, automatically performs all followups. Stays same side, Smash on the last hit.
Smash hit wall bounces, can followup with Super Dash for sliding knockdown.
In the corner, non-Smash hit can link into j.L, j.M and j.236L/H.
Keeps grounded opponent in place if they're on the ground
Gently knocks away airborne opponent.
You can do some cute reset with 236L~LLL series by delaying each followup or from the combo naturally dropping. Do keep in mind that despite 236X doesn't have head property, these followups do.
