Clones are mindless replicas created by Android 21 that appear in the story mode of Dragon Ball FighterZ. They are created from the cells of warriors and are grown quickly in order to be ready for battle as soon as possible.
Overview[]
They closely resemble the original fighters they were cloned from, but tend to have darker colors, paler skin and red eyes.
Unique amongst the clones are the Clone Kid Buus, who aside from a darker look, possess the personality and traits of Kid Buu and are simply referred to as "Kid Buu" by the characters. This is presumably due to Kid Buu's unique Majin cells.
However, the non-Majin clones are programmed to be mindless and outside of battle they tend to move and stand like classic depictions of Zombies. Additionally the Ginyu Force clones lack their counterpart's habit of posing outside of battle as they pose in battle due to it being part of the Ginyu Force's fighting style which they are programmed to emulate. Due to being mindless, the clones do not speak and are virtually emotionless save for the Kid Buu clones which retain their source material's manic personality and love of destruction. While the other clones are destructive, they take no pleasure in it and are simply a slave to their programming. Their mindless nature is due to their primary purpose as a food source that Android 21 can utilize to keep her hunger in check.
Power[]
Most clones possess similar but inferior power to that of the fighter they are a copy of, from the time their cells were taken and used to make the clone.
It is hard to determine their strength, as when Gohan encounters a Clone Gohan, he says he might have some trouble taking the clone down if he was copied from Gohan when he had his potential unlocked by Old Kai but will be easy to deal with if he's from before Gohan got the Z Sword or from the last time Frieza showed up.
Upon sensing a Clone Tien's energy, Tien notes that his clone possess the same power as him. Piccolo also notes that his clone possesses the same power as him.
However, Frieza and Cell consider their clones to be inferior though this is presumably due to their ego and belief that they the originals are superior.
Kid Buu clones are the exception as they can grow stronger through absorption though they retain their original Pure Majin form instead of taking on the traits of those they absorb. Additionally, their personality, behavior, and power are implied to be close to the original Pure Majin Buu presumably due to the latent power of Kid Buu within their cells being unlocked. However, SSGSS Goku and SSGSS Vegeta are certain that the Kid Buu clones cannot handle the power of Super Saiyan Blue as it is superior to Kid Buu's.

- Clone Kid Buu
- Pure Majin - All Clone Buus appear in their Pure Majin form. Adult Gohan implies it is unlikely that they were cloned from Kid Buu's cells as if any survived, he would have regenerated, thus it is more likely they were cloned from Good Buu but became Pure Majins due to his cells possessing Kid Buu's latent power which was likely somehow unlocked by the manner in which they were cloned and/or due to the uncontrollable nature of Majin cells. This is supported by the fact no impure incarnations of Majin Buu are shown to have been successfully cloned (as Android 21 herself is the byproduct of genetic engineering a female Earthling into a new type of Bio-Android and not a true clone).

Video Game Appearances[]
- Dragon Ball FighterZ
- Dragon Ball Heroes
- Dragon Ball Z: Dokkan Battle
- Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2
- Super Dragon Ball Heroes: World Mission
Clones appear as enemies in the story mode of FighterZ. They also appear as enemies in Dokkan Battle as part of a crossover event with FighterZ. However, not all clones appear as the Cell, Frieza, Ginyu Force, and Nappa clones do not appear in Dokkan Battle. Additionally, Clone Kid Buu appears randomly as an enemy that gives more Zeni and EXP similar to its role in FighterZ.
In World Mission, Clones appear as enemies in the Arcade Mode Universe Mission Age Android 21 Saga: Activation. Additionally, by using Hero Robo Capture Modules, the player can capture certain Clones to add to the Capture Log for said Saga which can be used to add them to empty Summon Modules. Like with other characters that can be captured, these Clones can be summoned during which ever round their Module is set for, which makes them temporarily playable during said Round. It is also possible to capture clones that are not recorded in the Capture Log though as a result the only way to create a Summon Module for them is to capture them with a Capture Module though if their Summon Module is discarded then the player must Capture them again to create another Summon Module as Empty Summon Modules acquire character data from the Capture Log.

The Clones in World Mission have an ability called Wave Machine which prevents all members of the opposing team from using Super Attacks which represents the Wave Machine from FighterZ. However, if the player's Hero Avatar links with Goku they gain the Link with Goku Ability or they link with Frieza they gain the Link with Frieza ability both of which counter the Wave Machine ability's Super Attack sealing effect allowing Super Attacks to be used again by the player's team. These abilities are a reference to the Soul Link System countering they effects of the power suppressing waves in FighterZ.
In Xenoverse 2 as part of the Ultra Pack 2 DLC, Supervillain Android 21 will summon clones of Goku, Krillin, Yamcha, Gohan, and Piccolo to aid her during New Parallel Quest 140: "Spirit Bomb Away!". The Time Patrol must defend Goku from Android 21 and the clones for 4 minutes while he gathers energy to perform his Super Spirit Bomb. If Goku's health is over 70% when he launches the Super Spirit Bomb, then an Ultimate Finish is triggered where Supervillain Android 21 survives the attack and receives backup from the reconstructed Android 16 and any remaining clones.
Againts Sora's Team[]
clones joined Xehanort's team after being created by Xehanort and other Villains due to a plan from the evil side of Android 21 to create clones of Sora, and other Heroes but most of them were killed and then destroyed including when the villains created clones of Korosensei Isogai, and his classmates knew to feel the effects of weakness a clone of Korosensei who was similar to Korosensei so that Xehanort, and other Villains were annoyed with Isogai, and his classmates especially Shun killed the Mio Chibana clone that the villains made because Mio's clone was too flashy so Shun Hashimoto killed him especially The clone became a henchman of all the villains, kings, and Xehanort making Isogai, Sora, Tashigi, Marie, Shun, Naofumi, Ren, Itsuki, Motoyasu, Ange Ushiromiya, Class 3-E, and other Heroes will target them because of clones such as Elder Bairns, Tsukuyami, Heartless, and other monsters that have been defeated.
