| − | '''Dende''' (デンデ) is a [[Namekian]] with a unique gift that allows him to [[Healing|heal]] others. He is the 108th son of [[Grand Elder Guru]]. Dende's first appearance is in ''[[Dragon Ball Z]]'', when [[Gohan]] and [[Krillin]] rescued him from [[Dodoria]]. On [[Goku]]'s request, Dende becomes the [[Earth]]'s [[Guardian]] in [[Kami]]'s place. He continues his role as Guardian for the rest of the series, helping the protagonists during their adventures whenever he can. |
||
| − | ==Biography== |
||
| − | ===Namek Saga=== |
||
| − | [[File:DendeNamek.png|thumb|left|Kid Dende, resurrected on Namek]] |
||
| − | Dende first appears during the [[Namek Saga]] in [[Moori]]'s village on [[Namek]], which [[Frieza]] and [[Frieza's Elite|his henchmen]], [[Zarbon]] and [[Dodoria]], are terrorizing in their search for the [[Namekian Dragon Ball|Dragon Balls]]. After putting up a brave stand against Frieza's henchmen, Moori is brutally killed by Dodoria, who then kills the fleeing [[Cargo]], while Dende looks in horror, and Frieza's soldiers retrieve the village's Dragon Ball. Angered by Dodoria closing in on Dende, [[Gohan]] kicks Dodoria into a Namekian house, and with the help of [[Krillin]], Gohan saves Dende, and they fly away from the village. Even though they manage to escape from most of Frieza's henchmen, Dodoria is sent to chase after the three, and is almost successful in killing Krillin, Dende and Gohan until Krillin blinds Dodoria with a [[Solar Flare]], and hide behind an island. After escaping from Dodoria's [[Maximum Buster]], they [[Ki Sense|sense]] [[Vegeta]] killing Namekians in [[Tsuno]]'s village. Dende, grateful for his rescue and confident in their good intentions, guides his saviors to the Grand Elder Guru. After the grand elder [[Unlock Potential|reveals]] Krillin's true potential, Krillin leaves Dende with Guru and brings Gohan for Guru to reveal his true potential. Grand Elder Guru later reveals Dende's potential, allowing him to use his [[healing]] ability, and sends him to help Gohan and Krillin to summon the dragon [[Porunga]] because they cannot speak the [[Namekian language]] to make their wish. |
||
| − | |||
| − | [[File:Dende.png|thumb|Dende at Grand Elder Guru's house]] |
||
| − | Dende eventually takes part in the battle against [[Frieza]]. He mostly watches, but at times assists by healing the fighters, and saves all of their lives with his healing ability; such as Krillin after he gets [[HAIL Frieza|impaled]] by Frieza, Gohan after Frieza brutally beats him, [[Piccolo]] after Frieza almost destroys him with his [[Crazy Finger Beam|crazy finger beams]], and Vegeta who wants to get a [[Zenkai]] to achieve [[Super Saiyan]]. With a lot of hesitance, due to the fact Vegeta had slaughtered a lot of Dende's own race, Dende eventually heals Vegeta under Piccolo's orders. Though, he pays a serious cost when Frieza [[Transformation|transforms]] into his final form and kills him with [[Death Beam|a single shot]], in order to prevent him from healing anyone else. Later on, during [[Goku]]'s battle against Frieza, Dende is revived from death by a wish made from [[Shenron]] and makes the wish to [[Porunga]] to transport everyone except Goku and Frieza to Earth. When on Earth, Dende realizes that [[Nail]] has fused with Piccolo. Dende lives on Earth for a while until it is time for the Namekians to be transported to [[New Namek]]. |

| − | |||
| − | ===New Guardian of Earth=== |
||
| − | [[File:DendeNewGuardianofEarth.png|thumb|left|150px|Dende resurrects Shenron]] |
||
| − | Later after Piccolo's [[fusion]] with [[Kami]], Dende is [[Instant Transmission|teleported]] from New Namek to Earth at Goku's request to take Kami's vacant position. It is at this point that Dende is truly acquainted with Goku, having only caught a brief glimpse of him on Namek. Dende is able to recreate the [[Dragon Ball (object)|Earth's Dragon Balls]], that had been powerless after Kami was fused with Piccolo, and grants Shenron the ability to grant three wishes (two if one wish is used to wish back to life a large amount of people). Following the conclusion of the Cell Games, Dende heals Gohan's battle-worn body. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ===The ancient evil, Majin Buu=== |
||
| − | [[File:DBZ - 224 -(by dbzf.ten.lt) 20120303-15145129.jpg|thumb|Dende as he appears in the Majin Buu story arc]] |
||
| − | Seven years later, Dende watches the events of [[Majin Buu]]'s awakening and his killing spree of almost everyone on [[Earth]]. Eventually, when [[Super Buu]] makes his way to the lookout, he barely says anything, yet when he asks Piccolo what he is doing when he mentions that Buu can kill all the other Earthlings but it would take up until tomorrow, Dende is told to be quiet, or the plan will be ruined. |
||
| − | |||
| − | The plan is ruined anyway when Buu uses the [[Human Extinction Attack]] to leave less than twenty beings on Earth within minutes. Later, Buu escapes the [[Hyperbolic Time Chamber]] and returns to the Lookout and begins his killing spree. However, before Dende can be turned into chocolate and eaten, [[Mr. Popo]] knocks him off the lookout to assure that the Dragon Balls will still be around to stop Buu. |
||
| − | |||
| − | [[File:Piccolo&KidDende.png|thumb|left|Piccolo and Dende witnessing Evil Buu's birth]] |
||
| − | Dende is faintly sensed by [[Gohan#Ultimate Gohan|Ultimate Gohan]] when he returns to Earth and after Super Buu blows himself up. Gohan, Piccolo, [[Goten]], and [[Trunks]] then fly off to look for him, finding and saving [[Mr. Satan]] and [[Bee]] in the process. When both Piccolo and Trunks accidentally drop Mr. Satan out of the sky, they find Dende. After explaining the different situations, Buu returns, mysteriously wanting to fight [[Super Saiyan 3]] [[Gotenks]]. After Gotenks and Piccolo are absorbed, Ultimate Gohan fights Buu, while Dende, Mr. Satan, and Bee watch. |
||
| − | |||
| − | [[File:Shocked.jpg|thumb|Mr. Popo and Dende shocked after witnessing Super Buu's Human Extinction Attack]] |
||
| − | From then on, Dende is seen flying, following, and hiding around with Mr. Satan and Bee, willingly explaining situations and, from time to time, getting annoyed by Mr. Satan's pigheadedness. He is saved by [[Tien Shinhan]] from Super Buu (with Gotenks absorbed) who fires a [[Finger Beam]] in an attempt to kill him, and is then saved again later, along with Mr. Satan and Bee, by Goku from Kid Buu [[Planet Burst|blowing up the planet]]. Dende is the one who suggests that they use the Dragon Balls on New Namek. |

| − | ===Afterwards=== |
||
| − | [[File:Satan18MarronChichiDende(BoG).png|thumb|left|Mr. Satan, Android 18, Marron, Chi-Chi, Dende]] |
||
| − | After reviving everyone after the death of [[Kid Buu]], Dende resumes his role as the Earth's Guardian. He is seen at a party to celebrate the victory over Kid Buu at [[Capsule Corporation]]. Two years after Buu's defeat, Dende attends Mr. Satan's party in ''[[Dragon Ball: Yo! Son Goku and His Friends Return!!]]'' He is at Bulma's birthday party in the movie ''[[Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods]]'', where the [[Z Fighters]] face the God of Destruction [[Bills]]. When a drunken Gohan asks [[Mai]] to shoot him during Bulma's party, one of the bullets hits [[Videl]]'s leg and Dende heals her, noticing that Videl is pregnant. Videl has been hiding the fact to surprise Gohan later, and Dende does not reveal it to the others yet. |
||
| − | |||
| − | At the end of the ''Dragon Ball Z'' series, ten years after Kid Buu's defeat, Dende attends the 28th [[World Martial Arts Tournament]] with his friends. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ===''Dragon Ball GT''=== |
||
| − | [[File:Dende4.jpg|thumb|Dende in ''Dragon Ball GT'']] |
||
| − | In ''[[Dragon Ball GT]]'', Dende witnesses Goku's training match with [[Uub]], and his subsequent regression to a child thanks to [[Emperor Pilaf]]'s accidental wish on the [[Black Star Dragon Ball]]s. He is the second person, after Mr. Popo, to be healed from [[Baby]]'s control with the sacred water by [[Kibito Kai]]. He then helps Goku escape from [[Hell]] with the assistance of Piccolo, using a [[Portal Opening|portal opening]] technique. He usually remains a background character in the GT series. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ===''Dragon Ball Online''=== |
||
| − | In ''[[Dragon Ball Online]]'', Dende resolves to deactivate the Dragon Balls as [[Old Kai]] had already expressed his disapproval of the Dragon Balls considering them to go against the natural order of the [[universe]] and, with the world now at peace, Dende worried having active Dragon Balls around may mean putting the Earth at risk. Later, Dende enlists [[Time Patrol Trunks]] to stop [[Miira]]. Dende is now regarded as the greatest spiritual teacher in Namekian history, and the class of Dende Priests are those that follow his teaching and learn his ways of healing, along with the ability to empower their allies. The new generations of Namekian people that fled to Earth apparently work under him. |
