Go to setting and change it to Normal and Average now go to storymode

Mysterious Alien Attack: This Battle with Raditz is easy and he is weak ok start using Kamehameha by pressing P P P P E(if you can't do this go to pratice mode now) keep using this skill untill you have no Ki left. now keep punching him still use Kamehameha once you get your ki back.

Ok so u Goku bro(already knw dat) This is an easy task.. for the first 7 seconds do nothing now if you need it to go right turn the control stick
clockwise... left turn anticlockwise.. once it in the center/highlight blue and time up you done

Goku's Quiet Fury: Use King Kai Fist x2 to get Goku stronger now use the same skill you be using on Raditz

Super Duel: First hard battle. Vegeta is strong, fast and cool. ok use Kamehameha and if u got 2 ki use Continuous Kamehameha by pressing
->P P P P E. if you need more help use King Kai Fist x2

Show's Gohan True Power: Ok Vegeta is aimed to Gohan now. use loads and loads of Kamehameha and use Killquick pressing ->P P K K E follow by Masenko

Let's Go To Namek: Fake Vegeta will throw loads of Ki blast at you start blocking by pressing G (B for GC, X for PS2)

use burst zone Press P+K towards fake Vegeta.. it will soon see vegeta attacking like mad. quickly use joystick clockwise fast and press P+K fast... if you end punch him then that good get alway quite a bit of enermies health. the fast you do it the better of get hit him. repeat this skill it useful.

this a battle... use King Kai Fist x5 then use Kamehameha

Goku's Arrival: beatting Recoome no prob use King Kai Fist x5 then use Kamehameha

Ginyu?!? use King Kai Fist x5 next use Kamehameha and Dragon throw

damn switch bodys!! if you can use Ginyu attacks then that good. can't then use kick and block all Goku attacks. if you can try using Ginyu Strike remember burst zone?? 2nd training use that

Goku's Revival!: I remember watching Frezzia battle it is so LONG I watch the Cantonese version not English or Japanese version anyway you start of with King Kai Fist x10 mind you this battle is hard start using Kamehameha and Continuous Kamehameha . remember to block cos he non stop fighter. use <-K or <-P that take some of his health alway

The Legendary Super Saiyan: Krillin not dead yet... anyway use same skill as previous battle. use spirit Bomb you will need 3 Ki for this press ->P P P K E

A Quiet But Fierce Battle: you still Super Saiyan. not much to say use Kamehameha and G

A New Threats: you have heart disease. your health is decreasing and #19 keep attacking don't help. the quickiest way to kill him is to keep using Kamehameha

A Wicked Omen: Goku still have heart disease. After the intresting cutscene you have to fight Cell using Piccolo. use destructive wave and Instant Killquick pressing P P K E if you have enough Ki use Special Beam Cannon by pressing ->P P P ->P E

Sneaky Cell: #17 is one of the best Android(the other have to be #18) this is quite a hard battle. most Piccolo moves is weak now apart from one use Light Grenade press P P <-P P E

Cell's Game Begins: Goku is better and done some training with Gohan. the day finally arrive beat cell using Kamehameha and Warp Kamehameha pressing P P K K E.. use <- P and <-K

A Warrior Beyond Goku: like always use Kamehameha. use either normal k/P or <- K/P

Gohan Explodes !!: Cell make Gohan angry. cells jr is coming now fight cell jr. they easy half life punch them half life use Kamehameha.. repeat this.

beat cell now use high speed hammer P P K K E then use <- P and all the comos you got and yeah Kamehameha

The Final Battle : you havnn't kill cell yet. cell block most of yr cobos either use <-K or <- P... if you keep P P P P without using ki you make an uppercut which is quite useful cos that will damage him a bit. use Kamehameha and Jackhammer once he down a while after using Jackhammer add a few ki to finish him off(remember to block his attacks)

once you beat him and watch the ending cutscene go back storymode and play others charcters stories complete that you unlock most of the charcters apart from one which is useless

2) Cell's Basics
------------


Cell is one of the last characters you can obtain. Unfortunately, this is a bad thing as he is an excellent all-round character and is an ideal first character for a first time game in Duel mode. His moves are quite easy to pull off and he does have a reasonable strength, defense, height and of course he has many forms, four (Or five including his super secret one). The only character which can stop Cell in this game is Gohan, and possibly Krillin. For these two characters are tiny, Cell's huge legs often make him kick and punch above the said characters. Cell should not have trouble on any of the other characters. Cell also has a two episode part of Story mode, just like Vegeta and Frieze have, please refer to Story missions for help on that. To unlock Cell you must defeat him in story mode as Gohan.

4) Tournament Mode
----------------

Tournament Mode is tough, however using Cell it appears to be quite a chore. The best thing to do is to sneak a few attacks in which can gain you ki. Once you have five Ki's, I highly recommend going in to third stage, then using Cell's spirit bomb. This could know the other person out of the wing, or make them lose a bit of their health. One other way is to keep backing away from the rival and running and hitting triangle, or send an enemy in to the air and firing a Kamehameha at him or her. The essential trick to beating the tournament as Cell is to do ring outs, especially when coming to a powerful opponent such as Goku, Gohan or even Trunks.

5) Story Missions
------------------


He is the main villain in Budokai but this doesn't stop him from having two episodes. Cell gives us a tale of how he came from the future and why, to absorb Android 17 and his sister, Android 18. In the first battle, against Android 16, you need to back away and avoid his projectile attacks, then head in with kicks and punches. You cannot archive other forms yet, but Lasso is a good move to use at this point. Next up is "Baldy" Krillin. He is actually quite easy and can be taken down in a few hits. After this you will have to fight the final boss of Dragonball Z: Budokai... YAMCHA! Now you are in Cell's "perfect" form, Yamcha is still tough. You need to keep away from him at all costs and only attack him when he comes towards you. He is quite tough, but not impossible.
