I'm catching up since the exhibition match and skipped some episodes, what's the reason why they picked 17 and not let's say, Cell instead?

17 was alive. Cell had passed on to the otherside.

Freiza was still in hell because he wouldn't move on.

Two possibilities: Cell repented and passed on (possible since he felt he was invincible and perfect but was defeated) or purely mechanical beings don't go to Otherworld. I mean, has anyone seen Android 16?

cell wasn't purely mechanical. 16 and 20 were full robots but that's it

I mean, seriously, they only picked Frieza because they were desperate and he's the third strongest mortal in the universe.

There's really no merit to picking Cell, even when you ignore the fact he's probably long purified by now.

You might as well ask why they didn't recruit Raditz or the Ginyu Force.

Wearer of Compasses. Slayer of Gods. Champion of the Colosseum. Heart of the Void.
Saviour of Hallownest.
Goku and Jiren are going to fight each other to a standstill.

They're both exhausted.

Death beams hit both of them in the heart. Frost and Frieza dump them both off the edge and high five.

Frost then poisons Frieza with the high five and hurls him off the edge.

Instead of jumping off the edge, Goku somehow managed to sneak a senzu bean in and gives it to Jiren, getting disqualified and loving Gohan over again.

The reason he asked about Cell, if we're going to be fair, is Americans like Cell more than Freeza, in general. It's the opposite in Japan. Not sure why it is, but this is where some of the complaints are coming from. Could be because Cell's dub voice actor was so good and Freeza's dub voice actor was a poor fit, in the original dub I mean.

I think it has more to do with the fact Cell was more powerful than anything else. Just look at how much power level and Broly is Strongest chat you even get today from older fans, let alone our impressionable idiot selves back when we were younger and seeing this poo poo for the first time.

Cell's the most powerful villain in Dragonball that isn't Buu. And Buu was too weird and the arc's reception mixed enough even back then, that yeah.

Kinda makes you wonder why Future 17 and 18 were so murderous.

So, what happened was that Dr. Gero and Android 19 attacked the South City place, but the Z-warriors in the future timeline were not informed ahead of time about what was going on and either arrived too late or the ones that did make it got Yamcha'd.

At some later point Android 19 was destroyed, and Dr. Gero realized his older schematics were better, so he finished those, scrapping Android 16. After a few test runs, where they successfully killed off Z-warriors, Goku having died from heart disease, they killed Gero and went rampaging because their aggression levels were boosted to basically hate humanity.

I'd say no. Zeno's universe buster didn't home in on Future Trunks and Future Mai, but maybe jumping timelines protected them.

The opposite was implied. Frieza joining U9 would save him from getting deleted alongside U7 if he helped them win.
