To be honest this is one of those battles that seems so evenly matched that I doubt I could pick. I don't particularly consider W or Fourze to be very powerful riders anyway. W has more knowledge, skill, and experience. And Fourze has more.... raw power? I'm not sure how to fairly assess this one.

I may like Double a lot, but one thing that always struck out for me was that he/they didn't seem very powerful. He seemed very much like a Showa-style Toku hero, focusing more on hand-to-hand brawling and skill than straight out power. If fact, I'd say this is his appeal, but it does mean that out of the post-Decade Riders, Double is the weakest by raw power in my eyes.

However he does have immense skill, but I'm not sure if that would help him compete with Fourze. I'm going with Fourze because the power of the cosmos is just overwhelming.

Thing is, Double doesn't need to over power Fourze. All he needs to do is be able to counter Rocket.
Because if you can stop Rocket, Gentarou's plan A, B, C, D, E, and F are all dead.

True, Gentarou wouldn't be that hard to trick.

All Gentaro knows is Rocket Drill kick and spam states

Yeah, and Shotaro has been shown to be very resourceful. After all, he's the guy who beat Utopia with a bunch of critter gadgets, unmorphed.

Fixed But in all seriousness, that moment to me shows why Shotaro would have the edge. He knew what Utopia's shtick was, and used things against him that'd he have no power over. That kind of critical thinking and skill would give him the edge over Gentaro.

Since the topic was more powerful... Fourze has the raw power hands down. Cosmic states just rolls over extreme. Plus you mention Phillip...I see Gentaro fighting so randomly ole Phil would just go nuts with frustration.
I mean the small fights would be interesting...firestates vs heat metal...then using magnet to own the metal...Luna trigger to counter rocket states...but in the endgame cosmic would just be game over.

Cosmic states is strong, but the battle isn't "Who's stronger", it's who would win. Raw power means nothing if you don't know how to use it (And Gen doesn't know how. 40 Switches at his disposal and his only fighting style is "ROCKET-ON!").
I think that Double can successfully defeat Fourze Cosmic.

I challenge you to a town hall debate on that one...
