That's not true at all. Recoome was one shot by Goku with a ~1.5x gap, and Vegeta one shot Cui with a 1.33x gap.

Cui was trash who was killed while running away.
Recoome was damaged and tired already, Goku was over 2x stronger and attacked him in the middle of an attack and even said it was because he left himself wide open.

Goku and Piccolo were 3x weaker than Raditz and weren’t one shot. 50% Frieza was over 2x weaker than ssj Goku and wasn’t one shot, 70% Frieza (who was still more than 2x weaker than Goku) managed to push ssj Goku back.

In Super practically nobody in the ToP got one shot. Krillin was fighting people 18 was fighting. 18 was fighting people 17 was fighting. Krillin was not less than 2x weaker than Krillin.

However none of that is even relavent, as Ikari Broly not being able to shot ssj or even base Goku, outright proves ssj2 Caulifla can’t one shot ssj Vegeta from the Broly movie, unless you think Vegeta is much weaker than Goku or if you think ssj2 Caulifla is stronger than Ikari Broly.

Why else do you think each UI Omen was stronger than the last (despite the form itself never changing)? Hell, the fatigue SSJ2 Goku that fought Caulifla & Kale was stated and shown to be much stronger than the full stamina SSJ2 Goku from the 1st half of the ToP arc.

And where was it ever stated that SSB Gogeta in the Broly film = SSB Vegito in the Black arc (which doesn't make any sense and isnt supported by anything)? The only thing that guide said was that Metamorian Fusion & Potara are equally powerful.

Black arc SSB Vegito is weaker than any version of SSBE Vegeta & Current SSBKKx20 Goku, while Current SSB Gogeta is above Beerus and possibly Jiren too. Obviously not equal.
UIO got stronger beacuse Goku unlocked more and more power of the form until it reached the max and mastered it.

No statement was made they got stronger. Only that they got stronger forms. I suggest you watch E113 again because no such statement about Goku was said. He kept up with Caulifla by skill alone.

I never said SSB Gogeta = Vegetto Blue. SSBE Vegeta and SSBKKx20 can't be stronger than Vegetto Blue since they haven't surpassed Beerus with those forms.

1. The Omen never changed. Its the same form all 3 times until Goku Masters UI. Yet Goku was stronger each time he used it. That means Goku's base had to had get stronger in order for each Omen to be stronger, logically.

2. "No statement was made they got stronger", "I suggest you watch E113 again because no such statement about Goku was said"

A) They scale higher than 1st Omen Goku (who fought evenly with Suppressed Jiren in ep.110), who scales higher than everything in the Black arc.

B) Suppressed Jiren>Infinite Zamasu according to Shin, Vegeta and Goku themselves. Later, SSBE Vegeta & SSBKKx20 Goku in ep.123 both forced Jiren to pull out even more of his power than he did against the 1st Omen.

Dragonball doesn't have a single tone. It has both silly and serious moments, both humor and drama, just like real life. The idea that a work of fiction should be only all-comedy or all-serious is unnatural and frankly, retarded.

Most likely weaker than Vegito, due to a lack of a rival boost. There was a guide (forgot which one) that stated that a hypothetical Goku x Gohan fusion would be weaker than Vegito due to the same reason.

No, Goku was only using 60K of his power at the time, he didn't use his full-power of 90K until he fought Ginyu. It was a one shot at 1.5x definitively.
Cui was trash who was killed while running away.
He was stilll one shot with a 1.33x gap.
50% Frieza was over 2x weaker than ssj Goku and wasn’t one shot, 70% Frieza (who was still more than 2x weaker than Goku) managed to push ssj Goku back.
50% Freeza not being one shot was by design. Goku wanted to fight him at his full-power and he was playing with his food. 70% Freeza being 2x weaker than SSJ Goku is factually incorrect.

You just made that up. It was Ginyu later guesstimating that Goku had a power level of 60,000 but he underestimated him. Which reminds me, Ginyu had trouble with Goku even though Goku's power level was 90,000 and his was 120,000.
He was stilll one shot with a 1.33x gap.
It's irrelevant to my argument though. A scrub getting one shot back in Z doesn't mean ssj2 Caulifla can one shot current ssj Vegeta or Goku, who can't even be one shot by Ikari Broly.
50% Freeza not being one shot was by design. Goku wanted to fight him at his full-power and he was playing with his food. 70% Freeza being 2x weaker than SSJ Goku is factually incorrect.
My bad on the 70% Frieza thing, I was thinking 70 million. 70% Frieza would be slightly stronger than 50% ssj Goku, so it would still be close to a 2x gap.

Most likely weaker than Vegito, due to a lack of a rival boost. There was a guide (forgot which one) that stated that a hypothetical Goku x Gohan fusion would be weaker than Vegito due to the same reason.
I'd be very interested to see this guide. I've never heard of it.

Gohan is worlds above Goku and Vegeta and the resultant fusion would be some amount of saiyan fusion hybrid which are stronger than either kind alone.

Yes there was a rival boost but that always read to me as an in universe justification for veggetto to be strong enough to do the job, whereas Gohan+saiyan wouldn't need the justification...

Hot take I even think Ten+Goku would be stronger than Vegetto, they'd get a bit of the rival boost but they could be as much stronger than Vegetto (less some rival boost) as Gohan was than Goku IMO. Because he'd be a half saiyan half human exactly like Gohan, where both fusees were trained to the max.

I think this didn't happen due to vegetas greater popularity and the half bald half not bald look is goofy AF.
Yamcha almost certainly did not cheat on Bulma:
He was afraid of Women, Bulma was the flirty one.
Yamcha wanted to get married (it was his gonna be his wish)
He suggested they settle down in the Trunks saga.
Alternate future Trunks is not a reliable source.
Toriyama wanted new SSJ Kids and not make new characters.

Strongest person potara Tencha could beat/runs a db gauntlet/can kill with a kikoho

1. {A} They are individually as weak as you say they are.
1. {B} The above but they can use the kaioken x20

2. {A} They are individually just behind BoG base Goku who's a bit behind 100% namek freeza
2. {B} The above but they can use the kaioken x20.

3. {A} 2A plus potentials unleashed by elder kai.
3. {B} The above but they can use the kaioken x20

4. {A} 3A plus training from Whis
4. {B} The above but they can use the kaioken x20

Goku was suppressed the entire time in E100...

And if something from the manga doesn't contradict the anime then it's fair game to use it since they come from the same source (Toriyama).

In any case we are going to go around in circles so just agree to disagree.

If it came from Toriyama it would have appeared in both mediums. If it only appeared in the manga, it's a Toyotaro idea.

A Toyotaro idea that Toriyama didn't correct or dismiss.

Also we don't know if he asked Toriyama about Vegetto's power. If Toriyama goes out of his way to correct minor dialogue for Ribrianne then an it's a sure thing he looked on Vegetto's power statement.
