If you do a Dragon Smash on some of the more difficult opponents, they will block it and send you staggering backwards. However, if you change the direction, you are more likely to get a clear shot. If you do an attack in the same direction too many times in a row, they will start blocking in the same direction. Try to vary your attacks.

Completing Story mode
To get 100% in Story mode, get a good set of Z Items to power-up characters. This will make it easier to defeat the high level characters you find in special battles. Find and complete (win by defeat) all of the special battles. This will unlock alternate plots. An example of a special battle is the Piccolo vs. Raditz battle. It is the very first battle in Story mode.
Easily summon Porunga
Gather all seven Dragon Balls while playing the Saiyan Saga scenario, but do not summon Shenron. Once you unlock the Final Battle scenario, use the Dragon Balls there to summon Porunga. Even though the Balls were collected on Earth, they can be used on Namek. It is easier to gather them in one of the cities on Earth.
Easy Dragon Balls
Fight with any character in Story mode in the Town stage and destroy all the buildings. Eventually you will find a Dragon Ball. Walk to it and you will automatically get it. When you collect all seven Dragon Balls, go to the white dot on the map.
Easy money
In Dragon Adventure mode, play until you get to the Majin Buu Saga. Once you make it to the Two Majin Buus storyline, you will be playing as Fat Buu. During that story, go to the top right area of the map and go to the Mountain Road area. Once there, Yamcha will offer you a contest to see how long you can last. If you either stay alive long enough or if you are strong enough to defeat him, you will be awarded with not only 1,000,000 Zeni, but you will also get Equipment Slots +4 and the Fox Mask fusion capsule. Once done, go back to the scenario selection screen and repeat. Increase Fat Buu's attributes as much as possible to make this easier. It is recommended that you spend some time in the Android Saga scenario and choose the "Goku Defeated!?!" story. Then, go to the bottom of the map to the Southern Capital. When you are fighting, destroy the buildings to look for a Dragon Ball. Keep doing this until you find them all then summon Shenron and hope that he has the Kiss From #18 capsule. That will bring up your attributes very quickly.
If you need to buy capsules for your characters early on in the Saiyan Saga or Frieza Saga, replay the Mysterious Alien Warrior (Saiyan Saga 00) event to unlock the hidden Fateful Brothers Saga. During the events of Fateful Brothers (where you play as Radditz), there are several events where you can endlessly attempt the side battles against groups of Saibamen. Each victory will result in a green Z-Item called the Saibamen set, as well as some Zeni and experience for Radditz. The Saibamen item set can be sold at Baba's shop for 150,000 Zeni. Repeat this as many times as desired to purchase Z-Items for your team. Also, purchasing the four Purple Z-Items at the shop is also recommended. Each set of two can be fused into the items Halo and Majin Seal, which allow good and bad characters to use their Blast 2 techniques at half the energy cost. This is a very helpful item during some of the more difficult Sagas. After unlocking the Majin Buu Saga, the other tip in this section is much more effective.
Finding Dragon Balls
Smash through breakable objects in battle maps then run into the Dragon Balls to get them. You must also win the battle.
A more difficult way to get Dragon Balls is to fight somebody in either the Namek or Mountain Road level in Story mode. The Namek level contains a lot of breakables but are difficult to find, especially when you are locked on and your opponent moving and changing your view. The Mountain Road level has almost nothing but trees. If you happen to find Dragon Balls in those levels by accident, pick them up.
Finding Shenron/Porunga
When you collect all seven Dragon Balls a little white dot will appear. Go there and give the Dragon Balls gathered to get your wish(es).
