Antenna Beam (角ビーム) is a bolt of electricity fired from the antennae. The attack shocks its victims, stunning them.

&nbsp It is first seen when Goku invades Muscle Tower, one of the main bases of the Red Ribbon Army, and faces off against Buyon. The monster uses this attack to daze Goku, allowing Buyon the chance to try and swallow him, though Goku quickly escapes from the creature's mouth.

It is next seen during the 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament in which it is used by Piccolo. After Goku hits Piccolo with a double punch driven by a Feet Kamehameha, Piccolo quickly retaliates with the electric blast. Goku is sent crashing to the ground and left vulnerable to a follow-up attack, though it is intervened and blocked by Kami.

Majin Buu also has his own version of this attack, performed like the Chocolate Beam in the Budokai Tenkaichi video game series. This attack is also inherited by Evil Buu, Super Buu, and Majuub. King Piccolo also uses the Antenna Beam in the Budokai Tenkaichi series. The Antenna Beam can also be used by the Dragon Clan Namekians in Dragon Ball Online.
