Shocking Ball

Directory: Techniques → Offensive Techniques → Energy Sphere

Shocking Ball (電撃ボール, Dengeki Bōru, lit. "Electric Shock Ball") is an Energy Sphere used by Kid Buu. It is a smaller and significantly less powerful version of his Planet Burst.

Overview

Kid Buu charges a large pink energy sphere by raising his hand. As electricity begins to surround the sphere, Kid Buu throws the sphere at his opponent, causing an incredible amount of damage.

Usage

264-75 — Kid Buu charges a two-handed Shocking Ball

Kid Buu prepares this technique in Other World on Grand Kai's Planet, against Krillin, Yamcha, Pikkon, Olibu, and many Other World Tournament fighters observing the scene. However, Kid Buu notices the higher energy of Goku and Vegeta powering up as Super Saiyans on the Sacred World of the Kai, and instead chooses to fight them, using Kai Kai to teleport onto the planet.

He later uses the attack several times during the battle against Goku and Vegeta on the Sacred World of the Kais.

Video Game Appearances

Shocking Ball was named in the Raging Blast series, where it is one of Kid Buu's super attacks.

In Xenoverse, it appears under the name Vanishing Ball and is one of Kid Buu's Super Skills. In the game, it is treated as a weaker version of Planet Burst, which appears under the name Super Vanishing Ball. It can also be obtained by the Future Warrior as a reward in Parallel Quest 38: "Blast the Super Spirit Bomb!".

In Xenoverse 2, Vanishing Ball returns as a Super Skill used by Kid Buu and Supervillain Kid Buu. It can also be obtained by the Future Warrior as a reward in Parallel Quest 58: "Majin Banquet". It is also accessible to Majins in their Pure Majin form.

The Two-Handed version appears in Dragon Ball Legends as Kid Buu's Special Attack under the name Planet Burst, while the actual Planet Burst is named Super Planet Burst.
