Out of the many materials which can be collected through the story, D Medals are important since they are the only way to strengthen one particular aspect of the skill trees through training. Finding D Medals will allow players to unlock and upgrade super attacks for the Z-Fighters, enabling them to take on the toughest encounters throughout many different Dragon Ball Z sagas. But unless players actively go looking for these medals, they normally might not have enough on hand to share with the whole team. Thankfully, there are two ways to acquire D Medals throughout the many story arcs in-game.

D Medals as a Main or Sub Story Reward
First and foremost, players can earn a limited amount of D Medals from progressing through every Dragon Ball Z Saga in the full story. Past that point, D Medals can be acquired as a reward from different Sub Stories. This is the best method since these side quests won’t take too long to finish and will award a D Medal most of the time in addition to other prizes like Soul Emblems. The only limiting factor for getting D Medals from Sub Stories is that most of the later side stories aren’t available until the start of a certain saga or when a particular episode has been reached. On that note, some Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot Sub Stories will become unavailable when the main story progresses past a certain point. Players should look around and aim to complete all open side quests as the story progresses so they aren’t locked out of those upgrades forever.
D Medals in the World
Alternatively, players can also look for D Medals scattered across the world. Goku, Gohan, or other members of the team can find and interact with orbs in different parts of the world to receive a D Medal. These orbs are silver with strands spiraling upwards, but occasionally glow pink and green as well. Players can see these orbs from mid-air or using the “Ki Sense” function to focus the object on screen. Like Sub Stories, D Medals acquired from these orbs could be lost if the area changes or disappears as part of the main story arc. Explore and gather D Medals from as many areas in the overworld as possible to prevent this loss.
In the end, players aren’t forced to gather every single D Medal to complete the main story. However, the power boost they provide ultimately makes even the later bosses in the Buu Saga much easier. Thankfully, there may be a way to go back and acquire some forgotten D Medals in a future update with the Time Machine outside Capsule Corporation.
