Vegetto as a Super Saiyan has a power greater than any Super Saiyan 3.

The adults are far above the kids

Piccolo says the difference while fused is bigger while separated so the difference between Gogeta and Gotenks is even much bigger than the adults and the kids

Not to mention the rival boots

Gogeta is leagues ahead of Gotenks

Also what Old Kaioshin said doesn't make Base Vegetto > SSJ3 Gogeta and it can mean SSJ Gogeta ~ Base Vegetto which is what I have
According to the manga and Daizenshuu, no they're not.

That can be interpreted a lot of ways.

There is no rival boost.

Not really.
The Daizenshuu is wrong because it's flawed and also says Kibio is close to Base Gohan and the Manga never showed the kids were close to the adults but the opposite

Piccolo says that a gain while separated is bigger while fused so you are wrong

The rival boots comes from Goku and Vegeta

Goku wanted to use SSJ vs Gotenks-Boo
The Daizenshuu was approved by Toriyama himself and called accurate, again by Toriyama himself. Kibito IS close to base Gohan, that's never contradicted anywhere. Goten was able to give Gohan a lot of trouble in sparring, so at the very least he's more than 66% of him.

I'm sorry, do you have Toriyama's email? Did he say that your interpretation was god?

What makes Vegetto's boots more special than anyone else's?

He wanted to fuse with Gohan (power level after Z sword: unknown) right AFTER hearing that Potara was stronger than fusion.

Oh, and he can survive in the vacuum of space. All this stuff is just presented as the way Freeza is, without even an attempt at rationalizing it, yet the tone dictates we're supposed to take all this silly grasping at straws as thrilling danger.

Those rival boots were made for walking. They are the source of Vegetto's power.

I don't believe in rival boost, but a compatibility boost. Same race, power, etc. RG96 created a pretty good formula for it if you don't go by AXB.

That said I have SSJ Vegetto above SSJ3 Gogeta.

It's also what Vegetto potara fusing with an alternate Vegetto would look like.

Out of curiousity, are there any other scenes of Buuhan giving SS Vegetto trouble in the anime? I remember him forcing himself down Vegetto's throat (which makes me wince whenever I see it) and making him use effort to break that universe destroying barrier. Is that it?

When Buu slid of the beam sword, Vegetto seemed surprised. Maybe that would count?

When Boo got super pissed and just charge at Vegetto. Vegetto's face was shocked and said " that was close".

Yep. In all media (manga, anime, guides, video games).
Got some clips to play?
No, but I have quotes from the anime & manga.
The Manga/Anime wrote:Chapter: 501 (DBZ 307), P6.2-6
Context: Elder Kaioshin gives the Potara to Goku
Elder Kaioshin: “Here! Put this Potara on your left ear! [ ] Put the other one on Gohan’s ear. Just by doing that, you two will be able to merge together! Like with Fusion.”
Goku: “Huh! Re-really!?”
Elder Kaioshin: “Of course. And what’s more, the effect is greater than with Fusion! This has been the trump card treasure of the Kaioshins since long ago.

”Chapter: 502 (DBZ 308), P1.3
Context: Goku asks if he should become a Super Saiyan before merging with the Potara, and Elder Kaioshin advices against it
Elder Kaioshin: “If you’re going to become a Super Saiyan, it’s better to do it after merging. But anyway, even without doing that, you’ll probably be plee~~eenty. The Potara’s power is just that amazing!
Daizenshuu 4 wrote:Potara
The much-valued treasure of the Kaioshin. If two people take one each and fit it on their respective ears, one on the left and one on the right, in an instant they will unite together and power up. The principle is the same as the Fusion technique, but the effect is greater than Fusion. Furthermore, since this union cannot be cancelled, it doesn't have the weakness of running out of time and the two returning to normal. This union is only removed inside the body of Majin Buu.
There are also 2 video games (Raging Blast & Ultimate Butoden) that have "Super Vegetto vs SS Gogeta" as a what if in story mode, and in both Vegetto is the winner.
James Teal (Animerica 1996) wrote:When you think about it, there are a number of similarities between the Chinese-inspired Son Goku and that most American of superhero icons, Superman. Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.
