Say if the virus didn't have him bedridden, could he have instant transmissioned into Gero's laboratory when the Z fighters were trying to get through the gate?

I don’t think so. Isn’t the whole point? You need to be able to lock-on to some-one in-order to get some-where.

Nope, he needs a ki to lock on. He ain’t Kibito.

Most likely not. Using this technique most likely requires it.

He was teleporting around Birus in BoG despite the fact it was later said he can't sense the Ki of gods.

So, then, it would seem he can do it to go short distances, but this could just be a retcon or a Toei flub.

It’s a TOEI inconsistency.

I dunno. I think Gokuu was supposed to have learned how to sense Gods in BoG, but it was retconned later. I think Toriyama would have seen the storyboard ahead of time, so if Toei made a mistake, he would have had them correct it.

Interestingly, Gokuu can sense Shin in Daima.

I don’t remember him teleporting around Beerus. I remember He does it in the DBS manga to hide from Jiren though, so I think he can do it in short distances.

So since Goku can sense Shin in Daima
we can put the Piccolo>Shin stuff to rest then? Lol
