Saiya-jin Saga

Vegeta travels to planet earth with his attendant Nappa to collect the Dragon Balls, and in doing so, gain immortality. At First, Vegeta allows Nappa to battle the Z-warriors. Nappa quickly disposes of all but Gohan and Krillin, and is about to finish them as well when Goku appears. Goku easily defeats Nappa using his Kaio-ken technique, and Nappa retreats to Vegeta, hoping that Vegeta will save him. Vegeta responds to Nappa's pleas by tossing him into the air and destroying him with a single blast. Vegeta then begins to battle Goku, proving to be much more powerful than Nappa. It is during their first battle that he displays one of his signature moves; the Galic Gun. During their fight, Vegeta tranforms into an Oozaru, his giant ape form. He toys with Goku until his tail is cut off by Yajirobe. Goku forms a spirit bomb, and gives it to Krillin, who defeats Vegeta with it. Krillin is about to finish Vegeta off when Goku stops him, asking Krillin to spare his life. Vegeta returns to a planet under the control of the tyrant Freeza. Here Vegeta is nurtured back to strength, and as a result of the Saiyan's ability to increase in power after recovering from a near fatal wound, his strength increases incredibly. He is confronted by his rival, Cui, who was equal in strength before Vegeta left for Earth. Vegeta uses his newfound power to make quick work of Cui, and sets off for Namek, intending to use the Namekian Dragon Balls to grant him immortality.

The Freeza Saga

On Namek, Vegeta confronts Freeza's elite soldier; Dadoria. Vegeta displays his newfound ability to sense other being's power levels, and destroys his scouter. After a brief fight with Dadoria, whom he defeats, Vegeta sets out to find Freeza's right hand man; Zarbon. Using his ability to sense power levels, Vegeta quickly locates Zarbon. Although at first Vegeta has the upper hand, makes the mistake of taunting Zarbon into transforming into his true form. Zarbon accepts Vegeta's challenge, and transforms into a monster. Zarbon easily defeats Vegeta in this state, and drags him back to Freeza's ship to heal him, and then question him as to the location of the Dragon Balls. Zarbon doesn't anticipate Vegeta's ability to grow in power, however, and Vegeta escapes from Freeza's ship, taking his Dragon Balls with him. Zarbon gives chase, but he is no match for Vegeta's new power. Upon learning that Freeza has sent for the mighty Ginyu Force, Vegeta seeks out Gohan and Krillin, and joins forces with them. The three of them are able to defeat Guldo, and inflict damage to Recoome's armor before they are each defeated. All seems lost for the trio when Goku appears on planet Namek. Goku easily dispatches of Recoome and Burter before he challenges Captain Ginyu. Although Goku does not kill Recoome or Burter, Vegeta corrects his mistake, showing no mercy to the fallen enemies. While Goku battles against Captain Ginyu, Vegeta fights and defeats Jeice. Goku is wounded in his fight against Ginyu, leaving Gohan, Krillin, and Vegeta left to battle Freeza. Vegeta taunts Freeza into transforming, as he did with Zarbon, and he and the rest of the fighters are easily defeated. Once Goku arrives, Vegeta taunts Freeza, labeling Goku a Super Saiyan, the one thing that Freeza fears. Freeza responds by piercing Vegeta through the chest with a beam from his finger. After Goku has actually achieved the Super Saiyan state, Vegeta is revived by the Dragon Balls, and sees Goku in this state. Soon after he is transported to the planet Earth.

Andriod Saga

All was peaceful on earth until a half cyborg Freeza and his father King Cold arrived to take revenge on Goku. A mysterious youth also arrived. He turned into a Super Saiyajin and quickly desposed of Freeza and King Cold. Vegeta was then enraged that there was another Super Saiyajin. It was later revealed that the mysterious youth's name was Trunks and was the future son of Bulma and Vegeta. He came from an apocolyptic future where Goku dies of a viral heart disease and evil andriods created by Dr. Gero killed all the other Z fighters. He gave Goku the antidote to the disease and said he will return in one year when the androids arive.

Vegeta then started to get plagued by bad dreams of Goku and Trunks being a Super Saiyajins. Vegeta began intense training in over 400 times gravity. He then set out into space where he played intense target practice with planetery sized astroids.

A year later the Adroids arrived. Adriod 19 and Dr Gero (Andriod 20) faced the Z fighters. Goku fought with Andriod 19 and seemed to have the upperhand, but his heart condition kicked in and Adriod 19 began absorbing all of Goku's power. He was saved by Vegeta and Vegeta revealed that he too has become a Super Saiyajin. Vegeta fought the Andriod and showed his superiority by letting the Andriod absorb most of his power and then ripping the andriod's arms off. He then finished him with his Big Bang Attack.

Dr Gero made his escape and activated two deadlier andriods. Androids 17 and 18. 17 and 18 killed Gero and activated android 16. Vegeta then fought android 18. They seemed equal at first but the andriods were revealed to have an infinite supply of energy, Vegeta was no match. Piccolo also met with another being by the name of Cell. His goal was to absorb 17 and 18 to become a perfect being.

Goku and Vegeta realized that they needed to become a lot stronger to defeat the androids and Cell so Vegeta and Trunks began training in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber at Kami's look out. One day in the chamber is equal to a whole year. A person could only go in for two days in there entire life.

Vegeta and Trunks came out much stronger and confronted Cell, after he absorbing Andriod 17. Vegeta transformed to a higher level of Super Saiyajin and was easily toying with Cell. But Cell attacked Vegeta's pride and told Vegeta he could never beat him if he absorbed Andriod 18. So Vegeta let him despite protest from Trunks

Cell now in his perfect form was too much of a match for Vegeta, but Vegeta had a trump card, his Final Flash. Even Cell didn't anticipate this deadly attack and was almost tottaly vaporized. But he was able to move slightly to the side at the last moment. With almost half his body missing Cell regenerated and defeated Vegeta.

Trunks then fought Cell and transfomed into the 2nd grade of Super Saiyajin but realized it was in vain because it decreesed his speed and that's why his father didn't use that form. Cell was impressed at their power and gave them a week to train for a special tournament, the Cell Games.

Cell Games

Vegeta and Trunks took another opportunity to use the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. All of the Z fighters arrived at the Tournament. Goku first challenged Cell and the match seemed to be even, but Goku did something unexpected and gave Cell a Senzu Bean. He put his son Gohan in his place. Cell heard that if Gohan gets angry he will fight at his full capacity. Cell decided to make Cell Jrs to fight the Z fighters to anger Gohan. The Cell Jrs had almost the same fighting power as Cell so only Vegeta and Trunks were able to hold them off since Goku was exausted from his battle with Cell. Cell then crushed the head of Andriod 16 and Gohan became so infuriated he turned into a Super Saiyajin 2. The Cell Jrs were instantly defeated and Gohan punched Cell so hard that he spit out Andriod 18 and lost his perfect form. Cell then prepared to destroy the earth by blowing himself to bring it to a stalemate. Goku steped in and teleported Cell to King Kai's place so the earth would be saved. Cell blew up King Kai's planet and Goku.

Cell came back and was more powerful then ever. He was able to survive becuase a single cell in his body survied his blast and he was able to regenerate. He copied Goku's Instant Transmission technique. He had the same aura that Super Saiyajin 2s had and he demonstrated his new power by killing Trunks. Vegeta became enraged and threw multiple energy blast at Cell for a good few minutes but his onslaught proved no match for Cell's new power. Cell then threw a large energy blast to finish Vegeta off. Gohan saved Vegeta by lettling the blast hit his arm.

Gohan's arm was now useless and and he was only at half power when he faced Cell. Cell then prepared a large Kamehameha wave, Gohan did the same. Cell seemed to have the upperhand as the energy blast from both Kamehamehas collided. Goku's astral form appeared and helped give Gohan the confidence he needed to hold off Cell. The other Z fighters tried to intervine but Cell just ignored their energy blast. Vegita then fired a large Ki blast right at Cell disrupting his concentration. Gohan then took the opportunity to completly obliterate Cell.

Buu Saga

Seven years later Goku returned from the dead for one day with the help of Baba the Witch to compete in the 25th Tenkaichi Budokai. A being considered to be an supreme god named, Kaioshin warned Goku about the sorcerer, Babidi and his plans to resurect the ultimate evil Majin Buu. Vegeta had plans of his own. He wanted to challenge Goku again since this would be his only chance.

Babidi had the Z fighters fight multiple opponents in order to gather energy for Majin Buu's revival. Dabura one of Babidis strongest fighters discovered that Vegeta's heart wasn't as pure as the others and Babidi attempted to gain control of Vegeta to fight the other Saiyajins. Vegeta then became Majin Vegeta and killed 100's of people in the martial arts stadium to get Goku to fight him. It was later revealed that Vegeta used this as an excuse just to fight Goku. Vegeta's pride proved to resiliant against Babidi's mind control. Both Majin Vegeta and Goku were able to fight as Super Saiyajin 2 and were too evenley matched. Majin Buu was resurected from all the battle energy. Vegeta and Goku agreed to stop to fight Buu. Vegeta asked Goku for a Senzu Bean and knocked Goku out with a blow to the head. Vegeta was determined to fight Majin Buu alone. He was angry at himself becuase he couldn't feel Gohan's energy and blamed himself for allowing the energy for Majin Buu's revival.

Vegeta squared off against Buu (Fat Buu). Vegeta seemed to have the upperhand and even blew a hole right through Buu. But Majin Buu was able to regenerate. Vegeta only saw one option. He gathered up all his energy and blew himself and Majin Buu up. But although completly in peices Majin Buu regenerated.

Vegeta was then brought back to life to fight Super Buu. At this point Buu absorbed Piccolo, Gotenks, and Gohan. Buu proved to be too much of a match for Goku and Vegeta. They used the Potara earings to fuse into Vegetto. Majin Buu was no match for Vegetto and tried to absorb him. Vegetto allowed this so he could get inside of Buu and free all the people he aborbed. Althought the fusion of Vegetto was susposed to be permanent Majin Buu's body caused the two to seperate. Goku and Vegeta saved all the people inside Buu and Vegeta ripped Fat Buu out. This caused Super Buu to become his most evil form, Kid Buu. Kid Buu responded by destroying earth. Goku and Vegeta escaped to Kaioshin's planet. Majin Buu then sought out Goku and Vegeta and destroyed each planet he teleported too. Goku and Vegeta raised there power so Buu could find them. Goku and Vegeta fought Buu but Buu proved too tough. Vegeta then distracted Buu giving Goku enough time to form a large Genkidama (Spirit Bomb) that finnally obliterated Buu. Vegeta finally admited at this point that Goku is number one.

Baby Saga (DBGT)

In the story of Dragon Ball GT. Emperor Pilaf summoned the eternal dragon of the Black Star Dragonballs and accidentally wished Goku to be a little kid again. The Black Star Dragonballs when used are scattered across the galaxy. If they aren't returned in one year the earth will blow up. On his travels across the galaxy, Goku encountered a parasitic alien known as Baby. Baby a genetic expirament created by the Tsufurujin wanted revenge on the Saiyajin race for killing off the Tsufurujin. Baby has the ability to liquify himself and then enter a hosts body through a cut or a scrape and gain control of the person.

Although he wasn't very powerful he gains control of Goten through a small cut and then is able to use Goten to cut Gohan in the same fasion. A possesed Gohan and Goten square off against Vegeta. Although Vegeta was stronger then the pair they managed to cut him with a speed attack. Now with the whole planet taken over and Vegeta as his main host planned on creating a new Tsufurujin planet and leaving earth. He was confronted by Uubu (the fusion of Fat Buu and Uub). Uub used his candy beam on Vegeta, but Vegeta deflected it back turnning Uub into a chocolate, which Vegeta then devoured.

Goku arrived on earth and fought Vegeta. Although Goku was in his Super Saiyajin 3 state he was no match for Vegeta. Vegeta then attempted to kill Goku with his Revenge Death Ball, a evil version of Goku's Spirit Bomb made of dark energy. Goku was however teleported away from the blast in a split seecond by Kibitoshin.

Goku needed to be stronger so the Elder Kai and Kibitoshin stretched Goku's tail out with a set of large pliers. When Goku came back he turned into the Golden Ozaru form but wasnt able to control his reasoning. But with the help of Pan he was able to control this state and turned into a Super Saiyajin 4. With Goku's new found power he overpowered Vegeta. Vegeta realizing this new power had Bulma create a Brutz wave machine. When this machine is used it was able to turn Vegeta into the Golden Ozaru. Vegeta unlike goku was able to control his judgement in this state and overpowered Goku.

Uubu now inside Vegeta was able to distract him long enough for Goku to regain his composure. After a long battle Goku defeated Baby Vegeta and destroyed the parasite as it got away

Ultimate 17 Saga

Dr. Miyu teams up with doctor Gero to creat the ultimate andriod 17. They combine the regular Andriod 17 with the Hellfigeter 17. Vegeta confronts Ultimate 17 and is at first seemingly as fast as the andriod but he absorbs his Final Shine attack and overpowers the fighters. He is late defeated by Super Saiyajin 4 Goku

Evil Shenron Saga

The Dragon Balls start to mysteriously crack and 7 evil Shenrons appear out of them. They were created because if the Dragonballs are overused then they gather up negative energy. Goku defeats the evil dragons. Goku defeats the other dragons and fights Xi Xing Long (Omega shenron) Goku proves his superiority and Xi Xing Long absorbs the other Dragon Balls. Xi Xing Long is overpowers Goku. Bulma uses the Brutz wave gun on Vegeta again. He then is also able to turn into a Super Saiyajin 4. Vegeta then uses the fusion technique with Goku to create Super Saiyajin 4 Gogeta. Gogeta proved to be too powerful for Xi Xing Long and even toyed with him. But since Super Saiyajin 4 was so powerful the fusion technique lasted 20 minutes instead of its normal half hour. In a last ditch effort Goku powered up a universal Spirit bomb while Vegeta distracted Xi Xing Long even though he was peirced in the shoulder by one of Xi Xing Long's spikes.
