Shenron, the legendary dragon, has the ability to grant wishes once all seven Dragon Balls are collected. He plays a crucial role in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero, as players can summon him for Zeni, Player EXP, titles, and outfits, as well as to complete episodic battles.

To summon Shenron multiple times, you will need to gather his Dragon Balls repeatedly. There are several methods to obtain them, as outlined below:

Engage in offline or online battles to receive them as rewards.
Complete Zen-Oh’s Orders.
Participate in Whis’s Stamp Book missions.

Keep in mind that the missions under Zen-Oh’s Orders and Whis’s Stamp Book have limitations; you can only earn a limited number of Dragon Balls from these sources. To acquire more, winning battles in offline or online modes can result in random Dragon Ball drops.

The most efficient method to farm Dragon Balls is through offline battles against AI opponents. Opt for a strong character and a weaker CPU opponent for quick matches. Additionally, lowering the CPU’s difficulty may enhance your chances. However, be aware that Shenron’s Dragon Balls do not drop after every battle, as the drops are completely random.
