How the hell did Dr Gero gauge Vegeta's potential?

Greetings. I will be your waifu this season.

He could only have seen him in one fight and would never have seen his maximum on his time on Earth before the androids were announced.

Vegeta was the most powerful thing in existence, without the use of Kaioken so why did Gero have Goku being the biggest threat when it should quite clearly be Vegeta...

Perhaps he accounted for Goku's training gains, he knew about Raditz and saw his powerlevel and then saw he went from the 400s to over 8000 in a year, yet he didn't have any data on Vegeta's gains so he assumed Goku made huge gains and had the Kaioken while Vegeta did not.

Yeah but Vegeta got to where he was without such a damaging technique, it makes sense that he would be able to get much stronger given that he was like 3 times stronger than Goku who had trained specifically to beat him.

Taking Namek out of the equation as far as it would be possible to tell Vegeta got stronger faster than Goku and got way, way stronger than him too without the help of a God.

I'm not sure he even knew Vegeta was still on Earth. The last time he would have "seen" Vegeta would have been when he left Earth after the battle in the Saiyan saga.

Also Dr Gero focuses on Goku because his entire goal was to get revenge for the RRA's destruction, which was caused by Goku.

I agree that he can't truly account for him. Vegetas age isn't even known at the time, and he's small to boot, literally grew in muscles and what appeared to be height on earth. You would think he would though as veggie promised to comeback and kill the whole lot of them

Yeah but he seems to regard Goku as the biggest/strongest threat when by the time Vegeta and Goku left Earth, Vegeta was still leagues ahead of him.

He surely could have determined that Saiyans get stronger after every fight and that Vegeta, already ahead could get much much stronger.

"Gentlemen, you can't fight in here! This is the war room!"

I don't think Gero counted on Vegeta ever returning to Earth. He simply wanted Vegeta's cells for Cell's genome because of Vegeta's elite Saiyan genes.

And Vegeta was 29 when he comes to Earth because he's five years older than Goku (and it was stated in the Daizenshuu)
... Not that Gero knew that. Also I don't think Gero counted on the fact that Saiyans stay in their prime longer than Humans do. He understood nothing about the Saiyan aging process because the only one he'd studied fully was Goku, who hadn't actually gotten past his "prime" yet, or what he'd perceived to be his prime which he probably just thought was identical to Humans.

The vengeance is her's for as long as she stands by Him.
