Overview
Dragon Ball Z: Gekitō Tenkaichi Budōkai is the very first game to come packaged with the Datach Joint Rom System add-on. The Datach Joint Rom System is a hardware capable of scanning information from the barcodes on special trading cards, which were sold separately from the add-on. There is no traditional character select screen contained within the game, nor is a single playable character in the game usable by default, as the player had to swipe a card through the reader to send new characters and items directly into the game.
Cell is the ultimate creation of Dr. Gero, designed via cell recombination using the genetics of the greatest warriors. The result was a "perfect warrior", possessing numerous favorable genetic traits and special abilities from Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo, Frieza and King Cold.
Cell becomes fully humanoid in his Perfect form gained from absorbing Android 18, complete with a normal nose and mouth. His irises become pink (they stay red in the manga). His tail has been completely retracted, only the stinger remaining. This form is somewhat shorter and lighter than the previous one, being 7 feet in height. His wings have grown back, but he retains the shoe-like feet and upward-pointing horns with the black ball-like section from Semi-Perfect form. Purple stripes now run down each side of his face, similar to those of Frieza in his first three forms. He now sports light green with dark green spots on his body with the upper torso sporting black sections on the chest and shoulders.
While Perfect, Cell can take on a Super Saiyan Third Grade and Power Stressed form, each similar to his base Perfect form but with grossly enlarged muscles and, in the Power Stressed state, greater size. Cell also possesses a Super Perfect State, identical in appearance to his Perfect form, but with the added electrified aura of a Super Saiyan 2. In Dragon Ball Online, it is revealed that Cell's Head shape in his Second and Perfect forms is actually a Namekian genetic trait.
