Editing Spopovich (section)

== Biography ==

=== Background ===
Before being ensnared by Babidi's mind control, Spopovich is briefly mentioned in the manga and shown in flashbacks in the anime. He participated in the 24th World Martial Arts Tournament, where he defeated Killa in the second round before advancing to the finals against Mr. Satan. However, Spopovich was easily defeated by Mr. Satan in that match.

=== Dragon Ball Z - Majin Buu Saga ===
In the 25th World Martial Arts Tournament, Spopovich returns with a drastically altered appearance. His once brown hair is gone, his skin has turned a pale gray, and his muscle mass has increased significantly. A new distinguishing feature is the dark "M" symbol on his forehead, a mark of his possession by the evil wizard Babidi. Spopovich is accompanied by Yamu, his ally, who shares a similarly ghoulish appearance.

[[Shin]] and [[Kibito]], mysterious figures observing the tournament, quickly sense that something is wrong with Spopovich and Yamu. Even Mr. Satan, who remembers Spopovich from the previous tournament, feels uneasy about his drastic transformation.

In the first round of the tournament, Spopovich is matched against [[Videl]], Mr. Satan's daughter. Confident in her abilities, Mr. Satan believes Videl will easily win. Despite her strong start and even managing to seemingly "break" Spopovich's neck, he proves to be nearly immune to her attacks, displaying a power far superior to hers. Driven by his desire for revenge against Mr. Satan, Spopovich unleashes a brutal assault on Videl. He continues his relentless attack until Yamu orders him to stop and focus on their mission. Spopovich finally knocks Videl out of the ring.

Later in the tournament, Spopovich helps Yamu subdue a fully powered-up Gohan with the aid of Shin’s divine restraint, allowing Yamu to drain Gohan’s ki. After completing their task, Spopovich and Yamu fly off, prompting Shin and the Dragon Team to pursue them.

Shin, later revealed to be the Supreme Kai, explains that Spopovich and Yamu are under Babidi's control and are being used to gather enough energy to resurrect [[Majin Buu]], the most powerful creation of [[Bibidi]], Babidi's former self. When Spopovich and Yamu reach Babidi's spaceship, they are greeted by [[Pui Pui]], [[Dabura]], and Babidi himself. After taking the energy from them, Babidi quickly disposes of Spopovich, causing him to expand and explode.

=== Super Dragon Ball Heroes - Supreme Kai of Time Saga ===
An incarnation of Spopovich appears as a competitor in the Super Space-Time Tournament, alongside Dabura, Pui Pui, Yamu, [[Yakon]], and two unknown members. In the manga, Spopovich, Yamu, and Yakon join forces with [[Commander Zeeun]], [[Wings (Dragon Ball)|Wings]], [[Angila]], [[Recoome]], [[Jeice]], and [[Guldo]] to fight against [[Yamcha]]. However, [[Jiren (Super Dragon Ball Heroes)|Jiren]] defeats all of them with a single blow. As a result of their failure to advance to the second round, Spopovich and his space-time are erased.

=== Dokkan Battle ===

==== Quest Mode ====
In ''Dokkan Battle'', Spopovich and Yamu are under Babidi's control, tasked with gathering energy to revive Pure Majin Buu in the dimensionally distorted Age ???. Due to this distortion, [[Grand Supreme Kai]] and [[South Supreme Kai]] were never absorbed into this timeline. Spopovich and Yamu attack [[Future Trunks]] and his unseen Time Patroller partner (the player) while they are en route to [[Dr. Gero]]'s Lab but are defeated and forced to retreat.

Later, Future Trunks and his partner learn that Grand Supreme Kai has arrived on Earth to seek help from the Dragon Team and [[King Kai|King Kai']]<nowiki/>s Time Patrol (a group formed at King Kai's request to investigate the dimensional distortion) to prevent the revival of Kid Buu. Eventually, they track down Spopovich and Yamu and follow them back to Babidi's spaceship, where they face off against Spopovich, Yamu, and Pui Pui. Although they manage to defeat them, Kid Buu is revived and absorbs Grand Supreme Kai, transforming into a weaker version of Innocent Buu.

==== Go Forth! Hero of Justice ====
In the Story Event ''Go Forth! Hero of Justice'', the dimensional distortion in Age ??? causes various villains, including Spopovich and Yamu, to invade Satan City as part of the Organization of Babidi. Fortunately, the Saiya Squad, consisting of Adult Gohan and Videl as their superhero alter-egos, Great Saiyaman 1 and 2, intervene to protect Mr. Satan from Spopovich and Yamu. Unlike their encounters in the main series, Gohan and Videl manage to defeat the pair. After their defeat, Mr. Satan acknowledges Great Saiyaman's strength but humorously claims that Great Saiyaman is still weaker than himself to save face.
