Biography
Oolong (Japanese: ウーロン, Hepburn: Ūron) was a short pig-like humanoid and long-time companion of Goku. Oolong learned the arts of shapeshifting as the same school as Puar, where he had a reputation as a bully. However, unlike Puar, he can only hold a form for five minutes at a time. Perverted and greedy, but with enough goodness in him to help Goku and others on occasion, Oolong has spent much time as a companion of Master Roshi.
As a villain, he terrorized a village and kidnapped their young women. Unfortunately for him, the young women were quite comfortable being stolen and living in wealth and he never found the "nice shy girl" he was looking for. Son Goku defeated Oolong and the girls were returned to their village. Bulma decided that he might be useful on her Dragonball quest and persuaded him to join their expedition. He does have his moments. At first Oolong tries to take the Dragonballs for himself, but he eats a "sweetrot" (a play on sweetarts) that causes him to have diarrhea (the trots), anytime someone whistles "Sweee!" (a phrase used to call pigs in for feeding time), which Bulma often uses against him in the first saga. In the English uncut dub, the sweetrot was just a vitamin Bulma called it and gets diarrhea when Bulma or Goku says "Piggy".
