History
Anime
Jheese used this attack in his fight against Son Goku on Planet Namek during the Captain Ginyu Saga. After swiftly evading the previous attacks by Butta and Jheese, Butta suggested that Jheese use the Crusher Ball as a distraction so Goku could leave his guard down. Jheese did so, however, Goku easily deflected it. Jheese later used the Crusher Ball again against Goku when Goku was fighting against Commander Ginyu, but Goku dodged the attack.
