"Heh heh heh heh! This is starting to get exciting!" ― Character Select (Customize Partner/Special Costume)
Goku is the main protagonist of the Dragon Ball franchise and is a playable character and a mentor in Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2. Originally born as "Kakarot," he was sent to Earth shortly before his home planet was destroyed by Frieza . He was found and raised by the old hermit Gohan, who he would later name his first son after, before training under Master Roshi and becoming the Earth's strongest defender.
Later on in life, Goku would eventually marry the Ox King's daughter Chi Chi and have two sons: Gohan and Goten. Goku's innate lust for battle would often place himself, his friends, his planet, and even his universe in danger, but these hardships only push him to become stronger, eventually becoming the legendary Super Saiyan during his fight against Frieza after the latter killed his best friend, Krillin.

Mentor[]
Following the defeat of Final Form Mira in story, Goku becomes available as a mentor. He can be found in the Bamboo Forest District nearby recreation of his old
Goku's location on the Conton City map
house. As a mentor, he will teach you four skills, three supers and an ultimate:
Combos[]
- Light String (9L): After a series of punches and kicks, launches opponent upwards strikes them down with a sledgehammer hit. The sledgehammer likely causes a hard knockdown, but due to the combo typically launcher opponent too far upwards, it will not function.
- Heavy String (5H): Following the first punch, a series of kicks that end in a knockdown. Third hit is multikicks, and hits five times.
- Alternating String (HLHLH): Fourth hit is a long knockback, fifth hit slams opponent back down.
- LHH: Following the light attack or attacks, Goku does a spin kick, and then a punch that causes a knockback.
- 5L3H: After the light attacks, launches the opponent away, then teleports in front of their path to deliver a further combo, ending with the same punch as LHH. If the first hit after the launcher is replaced with a light attack, Goku will instead do the sledgehammer ending from the light string that can cause a hard knockdown.
- Grab: Goku grabs his opponent by the legs and spins them around for a while before throwing them away horizontally.
Usage Tips[]
Goku is a pretty simple but versatile character with most of the tools everyone would want, a teleport combo, a decently fast knockdown combo for easy ground infinites, and a hard knockdown. His backhit although not very fast, lasts a long time and has a very wide hitbox, making it difficult to avoid. Goku's mentor preset in particular has a pretty large selection of moves, being able to use lots of different Ki Blast and Strike moves, although that is mostly in the Supers, as Dragon Fist is his only true strike Ultimate, but regardless it is a very strong one. His other slots are not to be underestimated either, as SSGSS Goku has a ton of stamina, as well as having access to SSB Kaioken, giving him absolutely insane damage. Goku also has another unique ability, he is the only character in the game that is able to actually combo into Super Spirit Bomb, since his heavy break cancels into it and other ultimates almost instantaneously. No other character in game is able to use Super Spirit Bomb without the opponent being able to avoid it.

Trivia[]
- Goku has the highest amount of his own Ultimate Attacks: Super Kamehameha (first used by him), x4 Kaioken Kamehameha, x20 Kaioken Kamehameha, Warp Kamehameha, Super Spirit Bomb, and Dragon Fist.
- As of Ver. 1.21.00, Goku comes with a new preset (Turtle Hermit Gi (No Character) 7) that replaces the regular Super Spirit Bomb for Super Spirit Bomb (Festival) and Charged Ki Wave for Maximum Charge. It can be unlocked during the "Festival of Universes" events when you max out his camaraderie.
