nah, Sidious was the power shift that he felt at the end of Plaguies; he became the sole entity of the Dark Side, Yoda would be blindsided by Sidious at this time. Remember; by the time Yoda got to face Sidious; he was ready for him and had had three years of fights under his belt to get his skills bumped up.
ah yes, my mistake. Still, Sidious as far as we know didn't get any boosts post Plagueis' demise so it stands to reason that his power level would be similar post TPM to his power in ROTS so i still say Sidious wins, provided the fight is on neutral ground.
Nope. It's explicitly stated Sidious grew in power in between AOTC and ROTS let alone TPM and ROTS:
Yoda's close enough to Sidious that the movie, script(two highest sources) and junior novel all show their force battle end in a stalemate.
The primary sources which show Sidious decisively winning
A. Aren't as authoritative as the movie and script
B. Blatantly contradict the movie's version of events throughout
So while you could use the other sources to argue Sidious has an edge, it would be a negligible difference.
In order to argue that TPM Sids is as close as Yoda, you'd need to argue that his growth over the course of more than ten years was of an equally small margin.
