Pikkon > SPC?

Why do people even think this? Is their any reason for believing this?

Yeah I get it, Pikkon kicked Cell but so what? Piccolo virtually did the same thing to 50% Frieza but I have yet to see a person argue Piccolo > 50% Frieza in the Namek Arc.

Is their any valid reason for this to be true?

Not really.

However, I will say that i am not that familiar with the Other World Tournament Saga.

Toei nonsense.

Cell was down for the count because of Paikuhan's assault, not like the example you mentioned.

Pikkon had to be at least around the same place as the Cell that fought Goku. I put him stronger since they both trained hard to prepare for the tournament. Whether he was at SPC I'm not sure. I'm not even sure that SPC was leaps and bounds above the version that Gohan was beating on. He did have lightening which in Dragonball indicates attaining a higher level of power and he did have a more powerful Kamehameha. So he definitely was stronger. The question is how much which is difficult to answer.

I dunno, Pikkon was probably between the two.

If I was Cell...I'd probably get the s*** knocked out of me too if I was going after base Goku and some **** nugget perhaps as strong as SSJ Kid Gohan smashed straight into me and ran off like a drunken hit and run driver.

There's what KP said, and to hone in on the "Toei nonsense" point, I'm pretty certain that the intent of the scriptwriters in that scene is to introduce a new challenge for Goku that surpasses his previous one. If you think about it, that's stupid, but if that's not the case, then the scene doesn't make much sense (given the way Toei presented it) and feels pointless.

But aside from that, yeah, if Piccolo knocked Freeza down for good and then cleaned up with a sick finisher, then people would argue Piccolo > 50% Freeza.

Thing is it could have been very likely that he was Suppressed when that happened. After all, he was only being pitted against Base Goku. Not to mention Pikkon could only take on MSSJ Goku.

I'm okay with Pikkon being close to FP Perfect Cell level but anything else is just stretching it.

Just because Goku knocked Pikkon out of the ring does not mean that Goku>PIkkon...It happens, he found a weak spot in his attack and exploited it. Goku is a GREAT fighter. I would argue that Pikkon had Goku beat and that Pikkon>MSSJ

They were completely even until Pikkon did that fire move thing.

I'm not arguing Goku > Pikkon. Theoretically speaking, one could argue Pikkon is equal or above MSSJ Goku and that would put him either close or at best equal to FP Perfect Cell.

All these options pretty much make Pikkon > SPC completely absurd.

I don't know if they are completely absurd. We don't even know how much time went by between his introduction and the tournament. Maybe it was years later? In which case it would be entirely plausible. Heck even a few months of other world training might be enough for Goku to reach SPC or above.

The tournament was before the Buu Saga began.

Unless your going to argue Buu Saga SSJ Goku > SPC, theirs no way the chain can make any sense.

Yes it was before the Buu saga but we're never told how long after the Cell games it was. It's implied that Buu was seven years later but the fighters would have needed preparation time for the tournament.

I'm not sure how strong SPC actually was. I find it hard to believe that he was anywhere near SSJ2 Gohan. Goku could have got there in seven years.

It's pretty much shown to happen right before the start of the saga hence it skipping straight to the High School Episodes of the Saga.

Even if we were assuming that, wouldn't that make this Goku weaker than his Buu Saga counterpart? If so, that makes the Pikkon > SPC argument even more invalid then it was before.

Toei nonsense.
Erm, I suppose ignoring this will ignite some fun discussion.
