Name: Son Gohan
Origin: Dragon Ball
Gender: Male
Classification: Human Alien/Saiya-jin Hybrid (Saiyan in the English Adaptations)
Age: 4 years old at the start of the second half of the manga; 28 at the end
Powers and Abilities: Super strength, speed, durability, agility, endurance, skilled in martial arts, afterimage creation, flight, the ability to manipulate and use ki both defensively (can use his ki to enhance his natural durability and harden his skin) and offensively (can shoot ki blasts capable of crossing thousands of kilometers and blowing up entire planets), energy sensing, can transform to increase his power even further (either to an Oozaru for increased hearing and a smaller boost in strength and speed or can use his Super Saiya-jin transformations up to 2 for a boost in all of his stats), power that increases substantially after recovering from near fatal injuries, passive telepathy
Weaknesses: Can’t survive in the vacuum of space
Destructive Capacity: Small planet level+ (stronger than Piccolo the day after the Radditz fight) | Planet level+, likely higher (while enraged, he was capable of damaging Third Form Freeza [somewhat]) | At least small star level+, likely much higher (much stronger than Namek Saga Freeza) | Star level+ (superior to Kid Buu) | At least small star level+, likely much higher (despite being ''rusty'' and not training, he managed to defeat easily Ginyu Tagoma as SSJ2 [he was SSJ2, for comparison, you can check his image of his SSJ2 Buu Saga version, they have the same hairstyle and essence, minus the electricity]) | Likely multi galaxy level+, possibly higher (Gohan became stronger after his training with Piccolo and is overall comparable to Piccolo by the Universe 6 Saga, Vegeta has said that overall, Gohan's potential is greater than himself and Goku's) | Universe level+ (landed a good hit on SSJ Goku (Absorbed God Ki) during a sparring match in episode 75, trained with Piccolo in episode 88, fought against SSJ2 (Absorbed God Ki) and SSJB Goku for an extended amount of time in episode 90, overpowered Koichiarator [who was taking hits from Super Saiya-jin Blue Goku and Vegeta] and Dr. Paparoni in episode 120, held back Anilaza's energy sphere in episode 121 along with four other Super Saiya-jin Blue level characters, could hth and inflict damage with his strong hits on Dyspo, who was on his Super Maximum Light Speed mode, in episode 124)
Range: At least one stellar diameter
Speed: At least relativistic+ (stronger and faster than pre-training Piccolo) | At least relativistic+, likely higher | At least relativistic+, likely MUCH higher (far faster than Saiyan Saga Piccolo as well as being fully capable of dodging rapid fire death beams from Perfect Cell, which should be faster than Vegeta's Final Flash) | At least relativistic+, likely much higher | At least relativistic+, likely much higher | Likely massively FTL+ reactions/attack speed (is overall comparable to Piccolo by the Universe 6 Saga) | Massively FTL+ (kept up with SSJ Goku (Absorbed God Ki) during a sparring match in Episode 75, kept up with SSJ2 (Absorbed God Ki) and SSJB Goku in Episode 90)
Durability: Small planet level+ | Planet level+ | At least small star level+, likely much higher | Star level+ | At least small star level+, likely much higher (managed to survive and endure while being badly injured, several casual brutal attacks from RoF First Form Frieza) | Likely multi galaxy level+, possibly higher (Gohan is overall comparable to Piccolo by the Universe 6 Saga) | Universe level+ (survived a baseball pitch from SSJB Goku unharmed with Champa even noting about how tough Gohan is, was matching and blocking some of SSJ Goku's (Absorbed God Ki) attacks during episode 75, matched SSJ2 (Absorbed God Ki) and SSJB Goku blow-for-blow in episode 90, survived against Anilaza's blows in episode 121
Lifting Strength: At least Class M+
Striking Strength: Class NJ (cracked Raditz’s Armor and broke out of Raditz’s Saiyan Space Pod, both of which are more than capable of surviving casual attacks from Nappa) | At least Class NJ+, likely Class XJ | Class XKJ+ (can completely dismember Cell Jrs with ki enhanced punches and kicks, beings superior to and with a genetic physiology similar to Freeza's that survived the destruction of Namek with little to no ki, far superior to Trunks) | At least Class XKJ+ (above Super Buu) | At least Class XKJ+ | Likely Class Multi Galactic+ | Universe Class
Stamina: Inhuman levels in both his base and Super Saiya-jin forms (also worth mentioning that Gohan still retained enough energy to overpower another planet-buster near or at his level with energy loss to half and losing one arm before said fight’s end against Cell)
Standard Equipment: Nothing notable (use to have a sword when training for Super Buu with the Kais called the Z-Sword)
Intelligence: Very sound tactician. Could read and understand Perfect Cell and Super Buu’s attacks and strategies with little effort. He also has experience passed down to him from his various teachers such as Goku and Piccolo. Both are combat geniuses with decades of experience under their belt
Notable Attacks/Techniques:

- Super Saiya-jin (Saiyan) Forms: An advanced transformation assumed by extraordinarily powerful members of the Saiya-jin race which increases his Base Battle-Power by 50 times, and this is proportioned to his physical attributes giving him a great and even increase in strength, ki power, speed, stamina, and durability. However, without mastery of this form, much of this energy is wasted transforming and maintaining the transformation. The Super Saiya-jin form also has three additional branch states (which sacrifice speed for raw power) and is succeeded by two further transformations, Super Saiya-jin 2 (twice as strong as a regular Super Saiya-jin) and 3 (four times as strong as a Super Saiya-jin 2). Gohan can use all of these transformations up to Super Saiya-jin 2. His Super Saiya-jin forms became obsolete after the Elder Kai unlocked all of his latent potential in the Buu Saga, however.

- Oozaru: A transformation into a giant ape that takes place under a full moon increases his speed, strength, and hearing.

- Kamehameha: A powerful beam of ki that can destroy a planet if enough power is put into it

- Chou Kamehameha: The Ultimate Kamehameha.

- Kiai: A ki technique using the power of his Chi to physically repel physical or energy attacks through his aura or voice via shouting.

- Masenko (Demon's Flash): Gohan's signature ki technique until the Cell Games.
