In the Dragon Ball universe, the Eternal Dragons represent the ultimate shortcut to power, immortality, or even the restoration of entire worlds. From the traditional Shenron of Earth to the planet-sized Super Shenron, each dragon operates under a specific set of rules and limitations. This interactive calculator allows fans to simulate their own gathering of the Dragon Balls to determine which dragon is best suited to grant their specific desires.
Understanding the Mechanics of Eternal Dragons
Not all wishes are created equal, and neither are the dragons that grant them. Depending on the scale of your request—whether it is a simple material gain or a complex cosmic alteration—you must choose your summon carefully. The Dragon Ball Wish-List Calculator takes into account the “Energy Cost” and “Cosmic Weight” of your requests to match you with the appropriate mystical entity.
The Four Great Dragons
To use the calculator effectively, it is essential to understand the tiers of power available within the Dragon Ball mythos:
- Shenron (Earth): Created by Kami (and later upgraded by Dende), Shenron is the most accessible. He can grant up to three wishes, provided they do not exceed the power of his creator.
- Porunga (Namek): The Namekian dragon is known for his physical size and the ability to grant three wishes per summoning. He is particularly effective for reviving large groups of people multiple times.
- Toronbo (Cereal): A unique dragon that requires only two Dragon Balls. While he can grant immense power, he often requires a significant sacrifice or “contract” in exchange for fulfilling the wish.
- Super Shenron: The ultimate dragon who resides within the Universe-sized Super Dragon Balls. He has no known limitations and can grant any wish, including the restoration of erased universes.
How the Wish-List Calculator Works
This tool evaluates your input based on three primary metrics: Utility, Scale, and Ethical Alignment. By selecting your desired outcomes, the calculator determines the feasibility of your wish list and identifies which set of Dragon Balls you would need to trek across the universe to find.
Common Wish Categories
When building your list, consider how your requests fall into these standard categories:
- Resurrection: Bringing back a single individual or an entire population.
- Augmentation: Gaining immortality, eternal youth, or a sudden boost in combat power.
- Material Wealth: Requesting physical objects, such as the world’s most comfortable pillow or a vast fortune.
- Knowledge: Seeking information that is otherwise hidden from mortal eyes.
Rules and Limitations
While the dragons are powerful, they are not omnipotent. The calculator applies the following canonical rules to your results:
First, a dragon cannot grant a wish that exceeds the power of its creator. Second, wishes that involve the death of a being more powerful than the dragon’s creator are typically rejected. Finally, once a wish is granted, the Dragon Balls scatter and turn to stone for a cooldown period (usually one Earth or Namekian year), making the timing of your wish list just as important as the content.
