Dodoria’s Power Level: How Strong Was Frieza’s Ruthless Henchman?

Dodoria, one of Frieza’s top enforcers, played a significant role during the Namek Saga in Dragon Ball Z. Known for his brute strength, aggressive personality, and loyalty to Frieza, Dodoria was considered one of the strongest members of the Frieza Force, second only to Zarbon and the Ginyu Force.

But exactly how strong was Dodoria? What was Dodoria’s power level in comparison to other characters? Could he have been even stronger?

In this article, we will analyze Dodoria’s official power level, compare it to other Dragon Ball Z warriors, and discuss whether he had the potential to become even stronger!

1. Dodoria’s Official Power Level

Dodoria’s confirmed power level from official sources places him at 22,000.

At 22,000, Dodoria was stronger than most Frieza Force soldiers but weaker than Zarbon, the Ginyu Force, and Frieza himself.

2. How Strong Was Dodoria Compared to Other Characters?

While Dodoria’s brute strength made him a formidable opponent, his lack of technique and speed limited his effectiveness against stronger fighters.

Dodoria vs. Vegeta (Namek Saga)

Dodoria initially had the upper hand over Vegeta due to his raw power.
However, Vegeta had recently trained and powered up after his Zenkai Boost, making him stronger.
Once Vegeta realized Dodoria’s lack of speed and technique, he outmaneuvered him and easily defeated him.

Dodoria was powerful, but his overconfidence and reliance on brute strength made him predictable.

Dodoria vs. Zarbon

Dodoria’s power level (22,000) was slightly lower than Zarbon’s base form (23,000).
However, Zarbon could transform, pushing his power above 30,000, which Dodoria had no counter for.
Frieza clearly trusted Zarbon more due to his transformation ability and strategic mindset.

In a direct fight, Zarbon (Transformed) would have easily overpowered Dodoria.

Dodoria vs. Ginyu Force

Ginyu (120,000) was far beyond Dodoria’s level.
Recoome, Burter, Jeice, and Guldo were all stronger than Dodoria in combat skill and teamwork.
While Dodoria had raw strength, the Ginyu Force had refined battle tactics and speed.

Compared to the Ginyu Force, Dodoria was far behind in power.

3. Could Dodoria Have Become Stronger?

Despite his defeat, Dodoria had potential. Here’s how he could have become stronger:

Training Under Frieza

If Dodoria had trained like Frieza (who achieved “Golden Frieza”), he might have unlocked new levels of strength.
Frieza’s species evolved significantly in Dragon Ball Super, meaning Dodoria’s race might have untapped potential.

A “Golden Dodoria” transformation could have made him one of Frieza’s strongest warriors!

Zenkai Boost (If He Were a Saiyan!)

Saiyans grow stronger after near-death experiences, but Dodoria’s species doesn’t seem to have this ability.
If Dodoria had Saiyan-like Zenkai abilities, he could have surpassed Zarbon and even challenged the Ginyu Force.

Unfortunately, without special abilities, Dodoria had no way to surpass his limits naturally.

Fusion with Zarbon?

If Zarbon and Dodoria fused using Potara earrings, they could create a balanced warrior with both strength and speed.
“Dodorbon” (Dodoria + Zarbon) might have had a power level exceeding 50,000+.

A fusion between these two could have made them the ultimate Frieza Force enforcer!

4. What If Dodoria Had Survived?

If Dodoria had survived instead of being killed by Vegeta, how strong could he have become?

Scenario 1: Frieza Upgrades Dodoria (Cyber Dodoria?)

• If Dodoria survived, Frieza might have cybernetically enhanced him, similar to Mecha Frieza.
• A “Cyber Dodoria” with mechanical enhancements could have been as strong as Android 17 or 18.

This could have given him a second chance to fight Vegeta or Goku.

Scenario 2: Dodoria Trains Like Frieza

• If Dodoria had trained like Frieza did in Dragon Ball Super, he might have unlocked a new form.
• A “Golden Dodoria” transformation (like Golden Frieza) could have made him stronger than the Ginyu Force.

He could have returned in Dragon Ball Super as a major villain!

5. Conclusion: How Strong Was Dodoria?

Dodoria’s power level was 22,000, making him stronger than most Frieza Force soldiers but weaker than Zarbon and the Ginyu Force.
His raw strength was impressive, but his lack of speed and technique led to his defeat.
If he had trained or undergone enhancements, he could have become much stronger.
A “Golden Dodoria” or “Cyber Dodoria” could have made him a real threat!

While Dodoria’s power level wasn’t enough to compete with the Saiyans, he remains a memorable and intimidating force in Frieza’s army!
