How strong are the humans?

I just don't see why Gero would see them as being valuable if they were so weak.
Perhaps the absorption models do not use stolen energy as adding to their power but rather allowing them to utilize more of their own potential. Like a phone battery needing charging after strenuous use (playing games or watching videos), and then able to be used to it's fullest after the charge.

If the humans possess enough raw energy to be used as fuel for more powerful attacks then they would be useful for 19 and 20.
Chapter 341 (DBZ 147), P14.6
Context: after No.19 absorbs Goku’s attack
No.20: “Alright! No.19’s maximum power rating has greatly increased from what it was before! In contrast, Son Goku’s energy has fallen remarkably…!”

Chapter 343 (DBZ 149), P7.1
Context: when No.19 asks to fight Vegeta
No.20: “You’re so greedy…Even though you sucked so much energy out of Son Goku, and have raised your absolute power…”


no, they are actually increasing their maximum power, not just recharging.
list of canon sources:

the DB manga, and the Dr. Slump manga as it applies to the crossover during the rra saga.

list of non canon sources:

everything else, regardless of origin, format, or quality.

for those that blindly follow word of god

Again....in the the context of 20 finding the humans useful.....he perhaps simply needed to restore his own power rather need theirs to add to his own.

Restoring a power level in the hundreds of thousands to a power level in the hundreds of millions wouldn't even make a dent, so I don't see what the point would be.

What I was trying to get at is that it could be possible that the androids can utilize a large amount of power from a small sample. Again, No.20 was wrong about a lot of things at that point, maybe he just overestimated their usefulness to him, so that is possible as well.

Eh... It's an interesting theory, but does anything back it up?

Well it was a theory to your question that largely has no official answer. But even after encountering Vegeta's Super Saiyan form 20 was under the impression that if he could absorb the combined energies of the rest of the fighters and/or return to his lab for energy that he would be able to beat Vegeta.

So perhaps Vegeta hadn't powered up to his full Super Saiyan power vs. 19 and thus gave 20 a misguiding reading. After all Vegeta doesn't seem to exert himself until he encounters 18 (save for firing a blast in frustration of losing sight of 20)

He did powered up to his full in this fight. If he would be supressed then Piccolo would not make a comment about Vegeta=>Goku. Green guy was able to know everything about SSJ Goku full power (after all he was training with him for about 3 years) and then Vegeta shows up and after brief struggle with C19, Piccolo is able to tell that he probably left Goku in the dust. So it is save to assume that Vegeta went all out. If the energy of earthlings, Gohan and Piccolo + C20 power>Vegeta, then probably at that point of the series they are in the low milions.

19/20 mistook Yamcha for Goku, but then again, the last time Gero had any data on Goku was during the Saiyan arc. He was tops 24,000 at that time, and that with 3x Kaio-Ken.

Although, Gero might expect Goku to make similar, but probably smaller gains as he did in the afterlife. The androids showed up approx 4 years after the events of the Saiyan battle. Let's look at this. Roughly estimated yearly gains for Goku:

400*20 = 8000
8000*15 = 120,000
120,000*10 = 1,200,000
1,200,000*5 = 6,000,000
6,000,000*2 = 12,000,000


Meh, that's roughly where I'd put the humans. Tenshinhan and Krillin slightly above. It's about where I have them from before.

#20 wouldn’t be able to even detect their true power if they weren’t in combat and had deliberately suppressed themselves; which had been affirmed as the manner of action prior to Goku engaging #19 in battle.

Right before noticing the others, #20 makes it known that he wants to avoid returning to the laboratory if at all possible. The plan of draining the others of their energy merely gives him validation for not going back there and so he succumbs to wishful thinking. He doesn’t state that he will surpass Vegeta’s power by doing so, only that he will “win” against him. The fact that he was unaware that the energy he’d stolen from Piccolo wasn’t near its true capacity proves he has no idea how strong they actually are, not that his track record up till then had painted him as any bearer of credibility.

The only human (aside from Uub) that would evidently need to surpass 10,000 is Krillin, and that’s only due to Guru’s ability.

I have them reaching these levels by the time the cyborgs show up:
Kuririn: 1,000,000
Tenshinhan: 720,000
Yamcha: 540,000
Would any of you say this is too excessive?

I think that should be the bare minimum. I still think they should all at least be in the low millions, otherwise Gero would have just killed them off. He considered them as valuable assets to surpassing Vegeta.

For those of you who don't think the humans ever came close to the millions, can you provide your battle powers for the Artificial Human Arc, Cell Games Arc, and Buu Arc? I would like some examples because I'm still mulling over where I should place the humans.

Krillin would at least be above 180k wouldn't he? Vegeta called pre plot power zenkai Goku useless against Freeza, but thought Krillin would help
