Galick Gun

One of Vegeta's signature techniques, this move was first introduced when Vegeta fought Son Goku on Earth. To utilize it, he curls his fingers and places both his hands together at chest level facing the same direction (so that the palm of one hand is on the back of the other) and then, once enough ki is gathered, he thrusts both hands forward to fire a powerful blast of energy. He uses this move against Goku in the Vegeta Saga, but Goku repels it with a Kamehameha after a 4x Kaio-Ken.

There is considerable debate about the correct transliteration of the move's name, with some fans thinking it is Garlic Gun or Gallic Gun, etc. Garlic gun would fit in with the saiyan convention of using vegetables for names.

Non-manga usage
Semi-perfect Cell used it against Vegeta, to no effect.

In Dragon Ball GT, Vegeta uses it again against a Baby-possessed Son Gohan. After Vegeta gets possessed by Baby himself, he uses while in a Golden Oozaru state.
