The smartest (yes there is a difference between smart and wise) I give to Plageous. Just a question really how can people vote for NJO Luke when Anniken Solo was obviously more powerful. Thats just my opinion and open to debate.Though many people will hate me for this I must speak my mind. Lucas stop being stupid. According to Lucas himself Darth Vader was the most powerful thing the Universe ever saw, yet he okays all these novels were people become quit oviously more powerful than him.
How is Plageius the smartest if all we know about him comes from a few lines from Sidious, which may or may not be hyperbole to begin with?
How is Exar Kun the most powerful being when he learns FROM the remains of the Ancient Sith, of which much was lost or destroyed?
Yoda is the wisest how? Because he's old? Odan was older than Yoda, does that mean he's wiser than him?
Yes, Lucas did say Anakin had the potential to be the greatest. He also said that he doesn't care for EU and that EU is an alternate universe altogether, so therefore we can't always apply Lucas' word to the EU.
