RELATED: Dragon Ball, DBZ, GT, Kai, Super: Main Series Timeline & Watch Order, Explainedīecause Cell has Frieza's DNA, it is theoretically possible for him to achieve this form.
But he had to put in effort in order to achieve it. So, after his defeat, he trained intensely for a relatively brief period and was able to achieve a new power level - one that even surpasses Goku and Vegeta's Super Saiyan Blue. Frieza hadn't trained before his fight with Goku because he was a prodigy with a strength unlike anyone else in the universe, even his own family. But that doesn't necessarily exclude Cell from potentially being able to unlock it himself. But, at the time Frieza had yet to achieve his Golden Form. Cell is also shown to take on certain personality traits from his genetic parents as well, like Goku's laid-back personality or Frieza's pompousness.Ĭell's ability to achieve Super Saiyan-levels of power was inherent to the DNA he'd received from Goku and Vegeta. Gero used DNA he'd collected from Vegeta and Goku. On top of this, he's able to achieve a Super Saiyan-like form because, when he was created, Dr. He absorbed Android 17 to surpass his Imperfect Form, and Android 18 to his Semi-Perfect Form. In his Imperfect Form and Semi-Perfect Forms, Cell is able to absorb other living things and increase his strength via osmosis, dramatically surpassing his previous forms.
