Background/History: Oolong is a shape-shifting sukebe (perverted) pig introduced in Volume 1. He is a lecher, very greedy, and a total coward who manages to get most of what he wants by using his shape shifting powers to intimidate others who don't know any better. Despite his wonderful character traits, he ends up sticking around with the rest of the major characters until the end of the series, although after the first few volumes his actual input to the series is minimal. As with most other Dragon Ball Z characters, his name is a pun, "oolong" being a type of tea.

Personality/Motivation: Oolong's major personality traits are his cowardice (He's pretty much afraid of anyone bigger or more powerful than him.) and his lecherousness (He can be talked into doing almost anything if bribed with a pair of panties or a glance at bare breasts.). Oolong tends to put up a bold front and tries to act tough, but such a facade will usually crumble in the face of stiff resistance or a strong show of force.

Powers/Tactics: Oolong's one (and only) power is shape shifting, which he learned in shape shifting school before getting kicked out for stealing a teacher's underwear. With his powers he can assume forms ranging from a giant bull to a small fly. He is limited, however, to powers relevant to his assumed form. For example, he can become a fish and breathe water, or become a bird and fly, but as motor scooter he couldn't carry Bulma's weight. It is also doubtful he can throw energy blasts or breathe fire by assuming such forms as a war robot or a dragon. Oolong can only remain shape shifted for 5 minutes before having to rest for 1 minute. This can put a crimp on his ability to fool people or bluff his way out of a bad spot.

Appearance: Oolong's normal form is of a humanoid pig, standing about three feet tall with pale pink skin. Initially, he dressed in the stereotypical clothing of the Communist Chinese, although later, he tended to dress in trousers, button-down shirts, and suspenders. With his shape shifting, he can look like anything at all.

Designer's Notes: Yes... Oolong had that Physical Limitation for a while. Eventually, Toriyama dropped the "bathroom humor" aspects of the manga and concentrated more on the adventure aspects. At that point Oolong lost his rather odd weakness.
