Just because someone appears in merch doesn't mean they're canon in any way whatsoever. What about the witch that fused with the Elder Kai?

Canon is just what ever the writer says it is. Finding out what the original writer worked on is necessary though.

This is why europe and us don't get to have DB Heroes, because children would riot in the streets about their fave character not really being a character in the series, wars would break out, the government would collapse, and DB would be banned forever.
