He was conceived prior to Goku's battle against [[Cell]] with him being born roughly 9 months after the Cell Games. His father had died saving the world from Cell and had not been aware that Chi-Chi was pregnant at the time. In the aftermath, Chi-Chi cam to raise the young Goten where she not only had him study hard but also helped train him in martial arts. As a child, he demonstrated himself to had been stronger than either his father or older brother when they were his age. He even came to be able to reach the [[Super Saiyan]] state effortlessly by the time he was 7 years old. According to him, he managed to accidentally attain this form during a training session.

He even came to be able to reach the Super Saiyan state effortlessly by the time he was 7 years old. According to him, he managed to accidentally attain this form during a training session. Goten was soon trained by his older brother Son Gohan in preparation for the 25th World Martial Arts Tournament, which their father Goku would be attending when it was planned to revive him for the match. After Goku was revived, Goten came to meet his father for the first time. During the tournament, Goten easily breezes through the kids division of the Tenkaichi Budokai, until he was beaten by Trunks, Goten's best friend and the son of Vegeta.

Goten and Trunks attempt to assist a beaten Vegeta but are knocked out by Vegeta and taken away by Piccolo before Vegeta sacrifices himself in an attempt to defeat Buu. However these efforts are in vain, as Buu regenerates, after Vegeta dies from the aftershock of his attack. In a last ditch effort to save the world, Goku along with the help of Piccolo, teaches Trunks and Goten Fusion, a technique that allows the two children to fuse into a more powerful warrior, Gotenks. Gotenks battles Buu multiple times but even when he transforms into a Super Saiyan 3 Gotenks' power is not enough to defeat Buu and he is eventually absorbed by Buu, making Buu stronger.
