Yamucha is a good friend of Gokou's who is chosen to fight against Vegeta and Nappa. In the battle, Yamucha gets killed first when one of the Saibamen jumped onto Yamucha and did a Kamikaze attack.
Like Tenshinhan and Chaozu, Yamucha was revived with the dragon balls after the Freeza Saga, and then began to serve another purpose in the Android/Cell Saga. Of course, Yamucha and Tenshinhan were not near as powerful as the androids or Cell, but they helped out, trying their best. Yamucha has good energy attacks, and he has an attack of his own called the "Spirit Bomb" which is SORT OF a very small Genki Dama (The actual spirit bomb, this was not taught by Kaio-sama, Kaio-Sama taught the Genki Dama, this attack was made up by Yamucha in Dragon Ball). His importance fades as well after the Android/Cell Saga.
