It's showing that Gohan felt that Goku needed help to win in Base. |

Author is speaking for Gohan. Author thinks Goku is if not even with Yakon, just slightly below. |

There's no denying that Babidi uses dirty tricks to win (and Yakon has a pretty useful ability), but Yakon caught Goku off guard, which isn't easy to do. Besides, the fight was so short before Goku started using his SSjin ability that it's impossible to sya much about it. The only thing we have is Gohan wanting to team up on Yakon when Goku was still in Base. This Goku praise is getting out of hand. |

It says not much about for yakon becoming close to goku , because thats wasanot shown in the fight. goku didnt saw yakon messing his shirt off , and he was never shown to be eqial agianst gooku |

Doesn't that say a lot though? How easy do you think it's to catch Goku off-guard, as he's looking at you even? Edited by Emmeth, May 10 2014, 03:06 PM.

No, he didn't. Goku was facing Yakon at the time. |

Yes, Gohan believes that Goku could use some help... that doesn't mean he needs it. The only thing that quote solidifies is "Yakon > Gohan", which you could extend to "Yakon >~ [Gohan's vision of] Goku > Gohan"... which is not necessarily [Actual] Goku. Still no concrete placement of Goku from that quote so we have to go to the feats; landing a [playful] hit, and avoiding Yakon's claw attack. So, Yakon, who is faster than expected and has the element of surprise, attacks... and Goku dodges (albeit by the cloth of his undershirt)... implying an advantage. |

I don't disagree on the advantage, but I do believe it is very close. |

Gohan himself isn't leagues below Goku, so the fact that 'Yakon > Base Gohan' means that Yakon can be close to Base Gohan. Base Goku > Yakon > Base Gohan, something like; Goku : 100 Yakon :75/80 Gohan : 60 That would work with me, though I'm not the decider of such things. Goku had an advantage, no doubt, but it wasn't big enough to dispatch of Yakon easily, otherwise he would've done so, even when he couldn't see. |

Would he though? Goku's been show on several occasions to battle at the level of his opponent simply to enjoy a battle and/or benefit from it... even while knowing he has an advantage (like, for example, still wearing weighted clothing). As such, I still don't believe that quote can nail him down to a Yakon'ish level. |

Well, he was told by Pocus that the more he got hurt, the more energy would go to Boo. So I'd hazard a guess that Goku would get his serious pants on to avoid giving any energy. It's the statement and the feats, though. It was Dark, yes, but that's no real excuse. If you'll recall the early Android Saga and Goku's battle with Freeza, a lot of emphasis was placed on sensing energy and using that in a fight instead of purely your eyesight. He would've been able to sense Yakon and been able to respond in kind if he had a massive advantage. You could argue that he was caught off-guard, and you'd be right, but that's just a testament to Yakon's speed, no? |

Again... only as serious as he has to be. The only reason I push this is because Goku had so much power hidden... even discounting SSJ3, he could've simply turned SSJ1/SSJ2 and 1 hit Yakon. His goal was to enjoy the battle without losing any energy [to Buu]... so he adjusted accordingly. I agree with the whole darkness not really giving Yakon an advantage at all... that was made clear... hence why I never brought it up. Yes and no. Yakon was indeed faster than Goku anticipated [as stated]... and suddenly revealed large, hidden claws... and yet Goku dodged. |
