Forms and transformations[]

Skinny Tiencha[]

Tiencha achieves this state when both Yamcha and Tien stretch their hands when saying "HAA" in the last stage of the Fusion Dance. In this state, Tiencha can still fly, but is unable do any special attacks and can only use punches, kicks and simple ki attacks and even this costs him a lot of his energy. After a combo attack, he coughs and if he tries a special attack like the Dodohameha he simply coughs, causing the attack to fail.

Video Game Appearances[]

• Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 2
• Dragon Ball Z: Dokkan Battle
• Dragon Ball Fusions

Tiencha was first introduced as a playable character in Budokai 2. In the Japanese version of Budokai 2, Tiencha is a usable team character in the 10th stage (Neko Majin Z stage), and there is also a small dialogue at the beginning of the stage where Tien and Yamcha fuse, with Goku acting surprised on the side. In this stage the player can only fight with Goku and Tiencha and must compete against: Saibamen, Nappa, Raditz, Recoome, Dabura and Captain Ginyu. Kuriza is unlocked as a costume for Frieza once this stage is completed.

In the English localization of Dragon Ball Fusions, Tiencha is referred to by his original Japanese name, Yamhan.

In Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 after the free 1.10.00 Update DLC, an accessory based on Tien and Yamcha's fusion called Tiencha's Wig can be obtained by the Future Warrior as a completion reward in certain Raid Quests. The wig features Tiencha's hairstyle and third eye.
