In Dragon Ball Z, when Goku was fighting "Buutenks" (not an official name),
the kids lose the fusion inside Buu and Buu gets a caped Piccolo-like
appearance. According to Japanese subtitles, Goku says to Buu: "The half-pints
have returned to normal from their fusion. Piccolo is coming out strongest".

Is this proof that Piccolo was stronger than Trunks and Goten or is there
something else in the series that shows otherwise?

Is this proof than Piccolo is stronger than Trunks and Goten in DBZ?


I think it is established at the end of Cell Saga Piccolo was stronger than
ssj1(Android 17/18), but weaker than ssj1+ or Cell. Piccolo with his intense
training techniques would have only grown stronger.

Since Goten and Trunks are shown only capable of going till ssj1 while unfused
we can conclude that Piccolo is stronger then them. _The Buutenks avatar
switching to Piccollo may or may not be the conclusive evidence you wish it to
be_ , but majority of DB Community believes Piccolo was stronger than unfused
Goten/Trunks.

Further on this point, seperately the kids struggled against Android 18 2 vs
1. We didn't get to see the full fight but it can be assumed Piccolo is still
stronger than Android 18 and hence the base ssj1 Kids.
