Andreder

Andreder is a fictional character from the *Dragon Ball* franchise, created by Akira Toriyama. Introduced in the *Dragon Ball GT* anime series, which serves as a continuation of the original *Dragon Ball* manga, Andreder is a powerful warrior from the planet Plant Plant. He is a member of the Plant Plantian race, known for their plant-based biology and regenerative abilities.

Andreder first appears in the *Dragon Ball GT* episode titled "The Legendary Super Saiyan," where he is sent by his king to challenge Goku and his allies. His design is inspired by the mythical creature the dragon, featuring a dragon-like face, wings, and a long, serpentine tail. His powers include flight, superhuman strength, and the ability to regenerate from injuries. Andreder is also capable of using a technique called the "Dragon Fist," which allows him to strike with immense force.

Despite his formidable abilities, Andreder is ultimately defeated by Goku, who transforms into his Super Saiyan form. His defeat is part of a larger narrative arc in *Dragon Ball GT* that explores Goku's growth and the challenges he faces against increasingly powerful foes. Andreder’s character is notable for his role in expanding the lore of the *Dragon Ball* universe, particularly in introducing new races and mythological influences.

Andreder’s appearance in *Dragon Ball GT* is considered part of the series' more fantastical and comedic elements, blending traditional anime tropes with Toriyama’s signature humor. While he does not appear in the original *Dragon Ball* manga, his inclusion in the anime helps to enrich the franchise’s mythology and provide additional depth to its world-building.
