- "Power levels" redirects here. For the concept of power levels, see Power Level.
This is a list of known and official Power Levels in the Dragon Ball universe. All of the levels on this list are taken from the manga, anime, movies, the official Daizenshuu guides, games and stated mathematical calculations.
After the Frieza Saga, the only power level stated by a scouter is that of Future Trunks. In the 2000's, V-Jump's scans have revealed the official power levels of Cooler in his Final Form, Broly in his Legendary Super Saiyan form, and Gogeta in his Super Saiyan form.
