Why does King Piccolo give birth to dinosaurs instead of Namekians?

King Piccolo was a demon, and an evil half of another Namekian. His offspring were mutated Nameks. Namekians reproduce asexually, through eggs shot out of their mouths, and some Namekians have been shown to do this at will, so if Piccolo chose too, he could probably give birth.

So is regular Piccolo a demon too since he was born from a demon?

Piccolo should be able to give birth if he wanted to, but maybe his children would be deformed like most of King Piccolo's. Then again probably not because he's fused with Kami so is now more complete, and fused with Nail, so he should be able to have normal Namekian children.

In Dragon Ball Online's background story he was able to have regular Namekian children I think.

LOL at the thread title.

King Piccolo never gave birth to dinosaurs. Only mutant namekians.

I thought it was because the concept of a Namekian had not been created/integrated into the story yet, but whatever, I'm not going to bother trying to apply some sort of proper explanation to it.

Well that's most likely a conceptual explanation. But the person who started this thread was most likely looking for an in-universe explanation of it, therefore going into the mutated Namekian stuff.

I was kind of partial to the same point of view as SirParagon but songohanfrancais is right, I was trying to see if there was some sort of DBZ universe reason behind this.

brolyeuphyfusion, I know he gave birth to some mutants, but I saw a lot of dinosaurs in there too and I was more curious about that. Like Piano and a bunch of other dinosaurs I saw in the screens when they showed the evil King Piccolo's old armies.

Thanks guys.

Greetings. I will be your waifu this season.

I've never even thought about this lol it is pretty strange.

Piano is the one that's just clearly a pterodactyl isn't he? Besides being able to speak he's not remotely Namekian so dinosaur does make sense.


I wonder why Piccolo never done it imagine how helpful a bunch of them would be against either Nappa or Raditz he could effectively double the teams fighting power

I always thought it was because King Piccolo was the evil half of a Namek, so couldn't properly have kids until his death when he put all his life force into the kid.

I think thats the most logical explanation you'll get out of this if your looking for an "in- universe" explanation.
-rephrased-
"He was experimenting up until his death, where he put all his namekian life force into the kid known as Piccolo Jnr- a pure offspring'

Real Answer: Toriyama didnt think it through, its more or less a plothole.

Dragonball-reality answer: King Piccolo was described as a "Demon", and I would say he aqwired demon-like powers, just like Kami aqwired "god"-like powers. One of these powers was to create demon spawn, not a common namekian trait. None of them, besides Piccolo Jr., were Namekians.
