Renzoku Energy Dan - A machine gun KI attack, used by pretty much anyone who knows how to form balls or beams of energy. It is fairly powerful, especially if the defender is caught off guard, as many beams can be fired home, and the ones that hit have more power than the last. It is good as a distraction tactic too, firing a few of them before charging up a really big attack to finish it off. The disadvantage is that this attack can take its toll on the attacker, due to the large energy drain.

Satan Miracle Special Ultra Super Megaton Punch - This is my favourite attack in all of Dragonball! Mr. Satan uses it when Android 18 asks him to do his most powerful attack. He yells "Satan Miracle Special Ultra Super Megaton Punch" and punches her. She asks if that was it and he says yes, so she throws herself out of the ring. When asks by reporters a few minutes later the name of the attack, Mr. Satan can't even remember!!!
