Illusion is a special technique utilized by several characters.

Usage

The God of Snake Way uses hallucinations to capture its prey; it disguises itself as the beautiful Princess Snake in order to lure visitors in Snake Way into its stomach, which it disguises as a beautiful palace. The illusion is elaborate enough to emulate multiple living beings working in the palace.

According to Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot, during the training in preparation for the Saiyan attack, Piccolo did not actually destroy the moon, but instead created an illusion of it's destruction in order to have Gohan revert from his Great Ape form. (The moon was still absent in later chapters, which led to Vegeta having to use a Power Ball to turn into a Great Ape despite having arrived at what was supposed to be a full-moon night).[2]

In the Tournament of Power, Dercori utilized illusions via her Mystic Talisman in her battle with Master Roshi, with 129 possible illusions in her arsenal. Xiangca used his Ultrasonic Exchange to create mirages of the erased fighters against Universe 7.

Moro utilized Illusion clones of himself during the Galactic Patrol Prisoner Saga, first when draining New Namek's energy and then again against Ultra Instinct Sign Goku. After gaining Autonomous Ultra Instinct himself from copying Merus, Moro's illusions became better than before, capable of fooling Ultra Instinct Goku.

Variations

  • Ultrasonic Exchange[1] - Xiangca sends red beams out of his cheeks creating a red dome around his opponents. Inside the dome he creates mirages to try and trick his opponents.

Trivia

  • Piccolo's destruction of the moon being described as an illusion in Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot mirrors the way Roshi used Hypnosis to revert the Man-Wolf's transformation by making him believe he saw the moon in the 22nd World Martial Arts Tournament. Though a Saiyan's transformation into a Great Ape is induced by the Blutz Waves emanating from the full moon, rather than by seeing the moon itself.
