Summary
- Trunks and Goten can be given Super Saiyan God forms with God Ki.
- Gotenks could be their answer to a power-up with an even stronger fusion.
- Fusion with Super Saiyan God forms could lead to incredible new abilities.
With the release of Volume 24 of the Dragon Ball Super manga, Toyotarou has finally revealed the main roster for the future of the franchise. Upon achieving their most powerful transformations, Goku, Vegeta, Gohan, Broly, and Piccolo are now stronger than they have ever been before, which is something Toyotarou has clearly done to tell fans that these are the main protectors of Universe 7.
However, two exceptions stick out from the team more than any others, and those are Trunks and Goten. Though they have never been central characters to the story, they are incredibly important for the future and fans have wanted to see a power-up for both of them for years. So, in this article, let's go over the best way for Trunks and Goten to be made relevant again as part of the main team in Dragon Ball.

Many believe that the answer to Ultra Ego Vegeta vs. Broly's strongest form is clear, but here's why it's closer than you think!

The entire Dragon Ball Super part of the franchise started due to the need for the heroes to achieve a state that could stand up to Beerus, as even Super Saiyan 3 proved to be far below him. Unlike other transformations, however, Super Saiyan God can't be achieved through hard work alone, since the user needs to be granted access to God Ki so that their body can perform at a far greater level that serves as the new baseline for their strength.
In the Battle of Gods movie, Goku was shown to unlock this form due to being given sufficient energy by multiple other Saiyans, which is presumably the same way Vegeta got this power as well off-screen. This is the perfect way for Trunks and Goten to be brought back into the fold of things, since this ceremony is an established way for them to achieve a massive power-up in a very short amount of time and with very little effort being put in.
I've been a Super Saiyan for years, and now, I too have the power of a God!
Of course, Super Saiyan God on its own is far removed from the strength that the rest of the main characters have achieved at the current moment with their ultimate transformations. However, half-Saiyans have unreal potential, so Trunks and Goten could still climb up the ranks to be far stronger than they already are, perhaps even unlocking newer forms or power-ups even quicker than their fathers. In the Buu Saga, Goku and Vegeta were surprised at how easily Trunks and Goten were able to transform into their Super Saiyan states.
Because of this, Super Saiyan Blue should work the same way for them. Plus, with the direction the series is going with regard to transformations, where each character has unique ultimate forms, it would be amazing to see how Trunks and Goten deal with this shift. Since Gohan never got God Ki and opted for Beast instead, it could give fans a wonderful way of seeing how the potential of half-Saiyans mixes with God Ki, which would likely birth cool and interesting new transformations for them.

Gotenks Could Be Their Answer To A Power-Up
The Strongest Version of the Fusion
- Trunks and Goten have used fusion more than anyone else.
- A version of Gotenks in the modern era would be very powerful.
Conversely, many fans believe that the answer to Trunks and Goten's upcoming power-up could lie with Gotenks. Throughout the series, these two are the most willing to fuse, prompting many to consider Gotenks a vital part of either character's arsenal, which is why many want to see him again. Just as fans wanted to see these two Saiyans grow, both in age and power, the sentiment is the same for their fusion.
Naturally, on his own, Gotenks would be incredibly powerful. However, seeing as how power scaling has gone through the roof in Dragon Ball Super, it's likely that just another fusion wouldn't be enough, and that God Ki is the bare minimum. So, this point of seeing Gotenks again goes hand-in-hand with the last point. Even if Trunks and Goten fuse, they wouldn't be able to hold a candle to Ultra Instinct Goku or the others on a similar level, so a great power on top of this is almost a requirement.
The real problem here deals with the nature of the fusion, since each of the fusions that Saiyans have been seen to use in the past either has a brief timer or is very unreliable. Of course, if Potara Fusion was used, it would birth a different fusion to Gotenks, so the Fusion Dance would be the only way. This remains a point of contention, but Dragon Ball is no stranger to last-minute plot conveniences.
Gotenks is about as beloved as Trunks and Goten themselves, so fans have always been interested in seeing him again. Plus, seeing the fusion properly at an older age than previous appearances is something that fans have wanted for quite a while, especially with his Super Saiyan 3 form. However, if both constituents were to fuse with their Super Saiyan God forms, the resulting fusion would be incredible.
