Why 18 is clearly above 17:
It is contradicted by Android 20 being stronger than Android 19. Android 19 was only stronger than 20 after absorbing Goku's and Vegeta's energy.
Accorging to the facts I've just stated I think I proved how 18 is stronger than 17.

No he was saying 20 > 19, try reading it more carefully. He tried to use it as an example for why 18 should be above 17.

I could easily counter by saying that 16's stronger than them all though, so yeahhh...

There's no point in me repeating the information that has already been stated here, so I'll just cut straight to the point...which has also been basically stated before.

You have statements, directly from the source material and several other official source materials outright stating 17>18. It might be a small gap, a medium gap, even a large gap, but the gap is there. It's outright stated, in the official material that to get 18 to be more obedient, Gero purposely weakened her in regareds to #17 and failed miserably on his part.

And as far as Doore>Salza, yeah bullsh*t numbers. Heck going by the random numbers random sources fo rhte movies gives, such as Movie 8 Broly and Super Gogeta, there's only a 1.7x difference between Movie 8 Broly and Super Gogeta. Which is of course a bunch of bullsh*t.

Do I have to use my Third eye? :D

19 never surpasses 20 even by absorbing Goku ( notice he says Vegeta too but he never absorbed him) It was Gero who absorbed Vegeta's blast!

And this is not an example for putting 18 over 17.

YEs I know it's not an example, yeah I know it ain't true, I'm just saying he didn't say what you thought he said (or what I thought what you thought it said).

Also, could be that he has 20 post > 19 post > 20 pre.

He might not have been taking into account #20's absorptions.

The manga itself states that 18's power was suppressed further than *18's, there's literally nothing else that needs to be said.

Chapter: 367 (DBZ 173), title page
Text box: “Her power is more suppressed than No.17's, but in the end she too is a failure who doesn't listen to orders.”

No fake interview, no DB Wiki entry can trump that...
*17's

oh I see, now this is what I call real evidence. I read the manga about a month ago but clearly didn't retain that.

Does that mean that she has about the same power than 17 but there is something inside her, maybe a device or something, that is restraining or blocking some of her power? "Suppressed power" sounds like she actually does have all the same power as 17 inside of her but there is something preventing her from having access to it.

IIRC, it says "suppressed" because Gero made her specifically to have a lower power than 17, because 17 was super strong but disobedient. So, Gero "suppressed" that in 18. Could be that he intended them to have the same power or something, then "suppressed" it as an afterthought with some...tweaking.

Hey, hey, hey.

As one of my close friends would say.

"BROLY IS MAXIMUM AND CAN BEAT SUPER GOGETA ONE PUNCH TO THE FACE LIKE IN BUDOKAI INTRO."

Or something like that.

Ja, if you're going to bring in fights from TV specials and whatnot when discussing canon material, you might as well bring in video game fights.

Budokai 3 says it itself.

Can't deny that.

When Vegeta defeated 19 with eas , Piccolo said that 20 wasn't the same as 19 and was stronger than 19.

Yeah.

20 post > 19 post.

You could have 20 pre > 19 post if you want to though, I dun see any problems with that PoV.
