Their first encounter itself is a clash when Vegeta lands on planet Earth in order to exploit the Dragon Balls so that he achieves mortality and takes over the planet. In the face of their rivalry, both Goku and Vegeta are compelled to join hands to vanquish Frieza during the Namek Saga. This association is the result of obligation but forms the bedrock of future fraternization.
In the intensive environment of the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, both are subjected to vigorous and harsh drilling. While experiencing arduous training, both realise their pluses and minuses which they employ in their combat against adversaries like Cell. Eventually, both relinquish their disputation by battling against Majin Buu in a joint effort.
Goku dominates the battlefield with his superhuman strength, Ki manipulation (controlling the life force of his energy that empowers his abilities), ability of doing an aerial combat, Ultra instinct (movement of body without the need for a conscious thought); whereas, Vegeta gets the better of his adversaries via sensing their energy and predicting their movements, royal bloodline abiliies as well as enhanced sight, hearing and smell.
