This has been on my mind fro quite some time now,
why were androids 17 and 18 stronger in the present time line??

When trunks fights them he says to everyone that the androids in the future are weaker.

he never fought the future androids at full power, so he thought the present androids were stronger when they weren't.
list of canon sources:

the DB manga, and the Dr. Slump manga as it applies to the crossover during the rra saga.

list of non canon sources:

everything else, regardless of origin, format, or quality.

Hm? The present androids were stronger than the future ones, that's fact.

Trunks said some events changed in the present because of his time travelling. Dr. Gero was still alive, Android 19 was completely new to Trunks, and the twins were a lot stronger.

I think Cell's presence may have caused some changes too. When Trunks returns to the past he can't understand how so many things have changed. Then when they discover cell I think I remember him saying something about how Cell's presence may explain some things. Not sure how though to be honest. All he did was bury himself in the ground for a few years.

I think it has to do with both Trunks and Cell time traveling to the present. I don't think they ever explained WHY time traveling caused those changes, but one thing's for sure, the androids of the present were stronger than the ones from the future. Stronger and less evil. That's a fact.

It's not a fact. There's no proof they were stronger other than Trunks' misinformed line, and their personality differences can easily be explained: they had a goal in the main timeline whereas they didn't in the future timeline.

There's not really a difference between the future androids and the main ones.

But I'm wondering how did Cell and Trunks both travel back in time when there was only one time machine? And also how would Trunks travel back because Cell killed him in the future timeline??

Trunks misinformed line? Lol If anything, the only person who could state how strong the twins were compared to their future selves was Trunks.

How can YOU say there was no difference? Explain that to me.

I find it funny that you easily dismiss Trunks comment to go on assuming there was no difference only because you say so.

"There was no proof other than Trunks line". Trunks was the one who came all the way from the future, he was the one who knew what was going on. The fact that he said the androids from the present were stronger is enough to consider it... well... a fact.

Well, The Androids never went full power, according to Future Android 17 they only went 30% against Future Gohan at first. And they only went Full Power because they were about to kill Gohan.

Once upon a time, there used to be a signature. Then it got lame, and now I'm out of options for a new one.
