Was Yamcha ever stronger than Krillin at any point of the series?

Aside from their first appearances, I can't think of any.... though they seem about even from the 22nd Tenkaichi Budokai till the Saiyan Saga.

Yeah, I also think Yamcha was stronger during the 22nd Tenkaichi. Aside from that I think Kuririn was always a step ahead of yamcha in power. i have seen some posters in other forums who think Android Saga Yamcha and Kuririn were more or less equal, or even that the former was stronger. Can't say that i agree though.

I don't believe so. Maybe before Krillin started training with Roshi, because he was sorta a wimp before that.

The only time Yamcha stood a chance was when Krillin was a dead body.

Only during the first chapter of the series, maybe. After that, Krillin was always ahead, whether it be by a minuscule amount or a noticeable amount.

First appearance and both the 22nd World Martial Arts Tournament and the 23rd. Then maybe for a little bit when Yamcha's training at King Kai's before Krillin's unlock was at max.

Even though Tien held back Yamcha did well against Tien and Tien himself admitted that Yamcha was good. Krillin barely was able to beat Chiaotzu. Roshi didn't make as big of a deal when Yamcha was using the Kamehameha then when Krillin tried it. That's for the 22nd, imo I just have him higher in the 23rd as well then he lost some power after the tournament to the beginning of Z.

The only time Yamcha might have been stronger is before Krillin trained with Roshi. He was stated to be "about the same" as Krillin during the 22nd, and the differences between their powers at the 23rd were probably nearly the same as the 22nd.

Though, I guess Yamcha might've started training on King Kai's planet before Krillin reached the Elder Namek, so he might have been stronger then.

Krillin is stronger in the tournaments.

For the topic, no.

Arguably at the start. I think if you compare their first fights with Goku you could argue Yamcha was stronger at the time, though it's not particularly conclusive still.

Krillin was fairly stronger than Chaozu during the 22nd TB. Chaozu's unorthodox methods caught Krillin off-guard.

There's no way to tell who is stronger than who in the 22nd tourney. Krillin definitely put up a better fight against Goku than Yamcha did against Tien (well, definitely is a strong word. But it is my opinion). However, that could easily have been because Tien was less patient than Goku with holding back, and also Tien didn't announce when he was going full power so that caught Yamcha off guard even more.
We do need to acknowledge that Yamcha did know the Kamehameha before Krillin though, which does show a mark advantage in skill, or at least ki manipulation.

No. And probably not during the tournaments as Krillin had done better in each one they participated in.
