Dragon Ball Daima episode #11 features a retcon regarding Piccolo's ability to speak Namekian. Despite previous instances where Piccolo demonstrated fluency in Namekian, the episode states that he has forgotten the language due to living on Earth for centuries.

Piccolo not knowing Namekian also ignores how he fused with Nail, someone who spent his entire life on Namek. Piccolo not knowing Namekian is undeniably weird, but surprisingly, it might not be a retcon. Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero was the first time Piccolo used his gigantification power since he fought Goku, and when Krillin brought that up to Piccolo, Piccolo said that he forgot he could do tha
