Yamcha is not as weak as they want us to believe.

Throughout all these years that Dragon Ball has been in publication, there is something that has been a recurring theme, being that Yamcha has been the target of much ridicule.thus giving rise to the human that we saw in the first stage of the original Dragon Ball series has been branded as the weakest of all charactersalthough others like Yajirobe, who has never stood out since the original series, are not taken into account here.
Be that as it may, the truth is that, although it may seem incredible, in Dragon Ball Yamcha saved Goku from certain defeatbeing so that he faced a group of villains with whom the young saiyan might not do anything, being so that at this stage of the manga and anime created by Akira Toriyama and before the introduction of aliens, Yamcha was able to fight face to face once morest all kinds of enemies..
Yamcha saved Bulma and, with it, Goku from being defeated by Carrot
Be that as it may, in chapter 17 of Dragon Ball we might see that Goku faced Carrot, capable of turning anyone who touches it into a carrot, this being something he achieved with Bulma. It is precisely for this reason that Goku allows himself to be defeated by the thugs of this villain, since he himself was threatening to eat Goku’s partnerbeing so that it had to be Yamcha who appeared snatching Bulma from Carrot at the same time that he defeated all his minions.
In this way, although Goku might have beaten all these villains alonethe truth is that if it weren’t for Yamcha’s stratagem, perhaps the series would have ended at this point, although it is true that Goku might have finished them all off without a problem if they hadn’t held Bulma hostage.
Be that as it may, this does not detract from Yamcha’s merits, this being a character that we have even been able to see in his version of Super Saiyan 3 despite not belonging to this race. For this reason, it will be necessary to see if, like It has happened with Goten and TrunksToriyama decides to give prominence once more to the human, since at the moment there does not seem to be too many indications that this is going to happen.
