I mean his son/reincarnation could. Why couldn't he?

HAS Piccolo Jr. survived a hole in his chest?

I don't recall any time he has

Didn't Piccolo regenerate from his entire body being destroyed after he got stoned by one of Babidi's minions? I thought he could regenerate from anything as long as his head was intact.

Iirc, most Namekians can regenerate, but not all. Demonking Piccolo must have not had the ability, or Toriyama just thought it would be cool to give it to Piccolo, and the other Namekians....just because.

Wait really? I thought only his arms and feet broke. I haven't watched it in a long time though.

Well, there was that one time in the Android saga where either 17 or 18 hit him so hard in the chest you can see a bulge from the back, but it never went through.

Other than that though, don't remember a similar injury.

I don't know where anyone got the idea Piccolo could regenerate if his head is still intact. He got killed pretty easily by Nappa's big energy attack.

Piccolo outright says this. Piccolo died from Nappa's beam because it was pure force kill. Not because it dismembered him. >_>

Your are right. Anime it's a bit different I think, but manga, his arms are broke off, a full leg and like half a leg.

Yes I know. His head was still intact though, so with that rule he should have been able to regenerate. I guess.

I don't know.

Whatever.

Piccolo, didn't lose any limbs in the blast...he pretty much just took blunt force to his body that killed him. It's not like his regeneration is instantaneous either, like Cell or Buu, it takes some time.

It's not.

Also for the record Piccolo did get a hole blasted through his stomach by Cell, he lived of course. I don't particularly remember if Dende did any healing to help the process though.

Maybe it was a senzu bean, because Dende wouldn't have been there yet.

Why didn't all the Nameks fuse together and make a big superwarrior to kill Freeza?

It's unlikely all that fusion would even be enough. Warrior type Namekians aren't even all that strong, with them being at about 3,000. Nail was an exception with a power level of 42,000, and then after the fusion with Piccolo, he their combined power level is somewhere a tad over a million. While it's a huge multiplier, both Nail and Piccolo were vastly stronger than any other warrior typing on Namek.

I sincerely doubt a combined force would be enough to take on a 100% Frieza, which has 120,000,000 million(I think). Also their techniques don't transfer either, just their base power, so it'd just be Piccolo with his same old techniques, and no healing powers or anything.

Also(according to the wiki) only 14% of the population was warrior, so that means the other 86% were like farmers and s***, and probably had a power level of a Dende.

maybe the fact that he had absorbed like three other namekians by that point bolstered his regeneration powers?

Uh, he explodes after Goku punches the hole in his chest. That's why he didn't regenerate. It was just a delayed reaction.

Not to mention when Piccolo got his energy drained by Cell and had to regenerate a new arm, he had to stall for time to regrow said arm, so it's clearly not instantaneous enough to heal in-between holepunch and explosion.

And if this post came out a bit snarky, it's because I can't help talk about DBZ in an aggressive tone after spending so much time on DBG. >_>
