The Super Kamehameha (超亀破波, Chō Kamehameha; Literally meaning "Super Turtle Destructive Wave") is the advanced version of the Kamehameha. Like many variants, the fundamentals for this technique are no different from a regular Kamehameha. The only defining trait with the Super Kamehameha is greater ki generation, which, interestingly in itself, is enough to generate light from the energy source while the attack is being prepared.
It was first used by Goku against Piccolo Jr. during the 23rd Tenkaichi Budokai and he later used it against Raditz to no effect. It was also used by SSJ2 Gohan to defeat the Full Power Bojack. It is said in the English bookcase of Dragon Ball GT: Final Bout that this is the "most powerful version of the Kamehameha Wave," despite the existance of the far more powerful version, the 10x Kamehameha.
The Super Kamehameha is frequented in many Dragon Ball Z video games, such as the Budokai and Budokai Tenkaichi games, and is a common staple on many character's move rosters.
