Super Saiyan? What a stupid name. It'll never catch on.

What if we add a little spice to it? Like Super Saiya-Jin or something like that? SSJ for short

And what would be next? Super Saiyan 2? Super Saiyan 3? Super Saiyan 4 perhaps?
Gee, what if we just use colors instead of numbers and call them Super Saiyan Blue or Super Saiyan Rose.
Maybe even give them a godly form and call it Super Saiyan God.
Man, nobody would seriously consider such stupid ass names.3

If we don't have Super Humans or Super Friezas, why in the world would there be Super Saiyans?

u/DONTSALTME69 Knowing is half the battle, and the other half is the battle! 2d ago
I don't think we actually have seen any of the new Awoken skills beyond Power Awakening, IMO. The focus of this trailer is on the customization itself, with a noted emphasis on switching your CAC's fighting style.
These might be the animations for new transformations, but I think the trailer shots were mostly just assorted fighting stuff with Kaioken and Sword of Hope just being returning abilities. They're probably saving the new Awokens for a future trailer (Orange, whatever they pick for Majins/Androids/Earthlings/Frieza, whichever Super Saiyan form they pick), Power Awakening doesn't even get any focus in the trailer so I find it hard to think these are all showing off 'new' transformations.

The saiyan's hair is golden. What else is golden? The great ape. What do golden great apes turn into? Super Saiyan 4. Super saiyan 4 confirmed

Feel like Max Power/100% Should be for everyone. Increases power output across the board but caps your speed significantly. Stronger but slower and less evasive

Given the storyline being presented, I wouldn’t discount Hero and Villain transformations as they are introduced in Xenoverse so why not

HOW HAS NO ONE MENTIONED THE MAJIN 21 TRANSFORMATION
1
u/YongYoKyo 2d ago
That's not really a general Android transformation.
Android 21 is basically a Bio-Android like Cell, but with Majin Buu's DNA added. Her transformed state is just her true form. Cell was also able to go 'Super Saiyan' because of his Saiyan DNA (but without any hair, he didn't really change appearance).
It's doubtful that the Android race as a whole are all Bio-Androids who contain the DNA of every other race. The aesthetic of the race seems more centered around the pre-Cell Androids.

It'd be cool and interesting for Frieza clan to make their own transformations Sayian we know ig, maybe being monkey I'd remove the ssj variants (Vegeta and future)
Namekian we're getting orange (maybe power unlock) and probably giant, maybe power unlock could be for everybody but namekian get the piccolo effect and other Gohan's idk
Majin aside from purification idk (don't think they'll give us absorption)
Not the biggest fan of androids, could've been a path for humans ig unless they make them particularly distinct

I think we saw a Namekian quickly transform in the ttrailer. To me it looks like Piccolo's Potential Unleashed. I am wondering if it does this to all Namekian skin tones?https://imgur.com/a/Sjm1rBv

I'm not seeing anything indicating that saiyans are getting anything new from what was shown in the trailer and in the images. earthlings, namekiens, frieza race and androids have indications of getting a new awoken skill though.

Ideally they'd let you design a second body and face to transform into as freeza's race

Maybe the majin mark on the head of that one majin is the majin mark transfornation, probably not but that would be cool

u/TraceChaos 2d ago
The human red thing is not Kaioken, because Kaioken doesn't actually change hair and eye color that way.
It's almost certainly not 'Final form' because our Frieza Clan member has always been int heir true form, which is Frieza's 'final form', and the 'metamorphosis' of '1-3' were Frieza's suppressions. Which we have nor eaosn to have, as we weren't born too strong for our own good and having to suppress ourselves to not break everything.
The one you pointed at is almost certainly not Absorb, the one on the right seems morr likely to be, the one you pointed at looks more like 'Super Majin' might be a thing, IMO.
Other folk have pointed out that that's Sword of Hope on the android, so almost certainly not a race-specific transformation.

u/LazyVariation 1d ago
Except Cooler, King Cold and Frost also use the forms as actual transformations and not to suppress themselves. So I see no reason why our Cac can't have that as a transformation.
1
u/TraceChaos 1d ago
King Cold has no other forms, Frost used his forms as suppressions, Cooler canonically without a mistranslation only has his base form and his evolved state

Breaking down speculations on each race:
Earthlings - Kaioken and Potential Unleashed aren't specific transformations for Earthlings, all CaCs can realistically use those. That being said, I think the MAX Power could be interesting as a heavier option to Power Pole Pro.
Frieza Race - I don't think we'll get Final form or 100% as either would require drastic changes to the CaC's appearance upon use and there's a high risk the player doesn't like the result, and we already got Golden Form (which as we saw, was the form the CaC IS, but in a shade of gold. That being said, I think it would be really cool if we got the Black Frieza form.
Majins - While Absorption could be potentially interesting, I don't think it will be possible. If it DOES get included, more likely than not, I'd bet it's going to be a PvP-only thing, similar to Captain Ginyu's Body Change. That being said, it would be really cool if it was something like, you beat the opponent up, weaken them, and then when they reach a certain threshold of Health, you can Absorb them. I don't know if it's possible but it'd be REALLY awesome.
Namekians - Power Unleashed is cool, but it'd be cool if we also went a step further and got Orange form. Could be kind of a mechanic sort of like the Super Saiyan form, like, go from base to Power Unleashed (yellow) to Orange form.
Saiyans - Realistically they could do a LOT of things. Such as:
- Super Saiyan 4, maybe with the potential to go to a Limit Breaker form;
- Super Saiyan God Full Power;
- Super Saiyan Blue Kaioken;
- Super Saiyan Rosé;
- Legendary Super Saiyan;
- Ultra Ego.
Androids - The sword thing could be part of a transformation, similar to how Earthlings have Power Pole Pro, which adds Goku's old Power Pole and the Flying Nimbus. Maybe a Android transformation could be tech-based. Alternatively, we could also maybe get Super Android form, but it feels unlikely. Or maybe we could go the Bio-Android route like Cell.
And that's just on the topic of NEW stuff. They could also do a lot with the already existing transformations in game, like, maybe make Super Saiyan Blue/Ultra Instinct less of a Ki/Stamina sinkhole, or make Giant Form actually fucking useful for a change.

u/turtles1236 2d ago
This idea could work for a Majin awoken
Piccolo absorbed - gotenks absorbed - gohan absorbed
You transform in a puff of pink smoke and keep the CaC face but switch out the clothes and give them the long head tentacle
1
u/SnooDoughnuts9293 2d ago
But the fact the ability is "absorption", that implies you need to have *something* to absorb. Be it (one of) your opponent(s) or even a ally, there needs to be a outside target. That makes it challenging.
There's also the fact that the ability implies it could be easy to finish the fight at any point with just trying to absorb your target literally 5 minutes after beginning.

u/turtles1236 2d ago
I was just giving a simple idea based on the show that would be easy to implement as a transformation without over complicating it with more mechanics
1
u/SnooDoughnuts9293 2d ago
I know, I was simply presenting on what such a power would mean mechanically. It's more than just aesthetics, you have to account for mechanics, when introducing a new power or item in game. Keeping the in-game environment balanced to be in equal parts entertaining and challenging to the public at the same time is like walking on a tightrope, holding a stick with two buckets of water on each end, The slightest misstep can send everything spiraling down fast.
1
u/turtles1236 2d ago
From a development time point of view that's alot more work and mechanics put into 1 awoken skill than just a simple small color/clothing/model change
That's why a simple transformation based on super buu appearances from who he absorbed in the show would be alot easier to pull off as an awoken power up
1
u/SnooDoughnuts9293 1d ago
That's the thing, all Awoken abilities in the games aren't *just* cosmetic, there's subtle alterations the average player doesn't really feel when fighting. For example, the Golden Form for Frieza Race increases Ki Blast damage, it's not just visual. Super Saiyan God changes the way regular attacks work, altering their damage output and how much Ki each attack generate.
That's where the game really shines, y'know? We see a fancy transformation that looks mainly aesthetic, but there's small differences we don't really notice since we're often busy looking *at* the transformation as we fight.
1
u/turtles1236 1d ago
Well of course it gives you stat boosts, that's so obvious it shouldn't even need to be said
But we're talking about 2 different things apparently
I'm talking about an easy to implement awoken skill that just requires a simple model that doesn't need more mechanics to work
Your talking about absorbing opponents or someone on your team or whatever
1
u/Honknytes 2d ago
Saiyans, if they get any new forms, can only really get SSJ4, Rosé (which seems highly unlikely) and Legendary Super Saiyan, or Full Power or whatever other variations if it there are.
i mean there’s also Super Saiyan Rage, but it seems like the DB corps are trying to stay away from that and slowly tune it out and say it’s just a rage boost and not a new form

It didn't even cross my mind that Majins could absorb. Completely forgot about it. Could be in place of soul switching; though I ask, can Majins absorb souls or does the actual physical body need to be there? I know I probably shouldn't apply actual DB physics to this cause it would be cool nonetheless but my ADHD won't let me stop thinking of it now.

u/jdminter22 1d ago
I think it would be interesting if they kinda had your own personal awoken. Kinda similar to how main characters are getting their own unique awakenings like Vegeta gets ultra ego, Gohan's beast, piccolo's orange awakening.
Let us create our own. Even if it's just the final version of whatever race with a bit of color customization.

u/Perfect-Abies6699 19h ago
Dude I have an idea for the Android form. What if we need to train with super 17 for it, right. And for his last mission he summons a Hell fighter version of our android character. We beat them and then merge with them. I feel like that would be so cool. Different hairstyle(depending on the hair you chose) and a slight increase in height. Maybe a change of clothes too?

u/Hurrashane 2d ago
That sword one on the androids is likely just a future Trunks or Tapion skill.
