Been done before... And next time try thinking before you make a thread...
But just for you I will answer and in a very simple way because you probably wouldn't understand otherwise
Palpatine/Sidious = The Master
Vader/Anakin = The apprentice
So who do you think would win, the chosen one that doesn't necessarily have to be powerful and who's prophecy doesn't matter at all in this thread. Or the Master who ruled the phatetic little boy for god knows how long until he was eventually backstabbed but still managed to take him out? Vader does not have a chance in hell of beating Palpatine.
K got it? Now start thinking instead of making threads please...
This is directly from Lucas:
"Due to his injuries on Mustafar, Darth Vader was far less powerful than he could have been. As Vader, he possesses about 80% the strength of the Emperor. Had he not been so injured, he would've been TWICE as powerful."
80% is enough for a decent fight, but Palpatine would take this one most likely as Vader is not nearly as manuverable as he once was.

Yeah I read that somewhere, suit-Vader sucks.
He didn't suck, he was still more powerful than all save the Emperor in this form. He still probably killed a fair share of Jedi in this form, believeable since not all Jedi were on Coruscant/on the Front at the time.
However, had he not been burnt by lava, he would've been even greater than the Emperor. A "Force god" as it were.

Why does everyone assume that Anakain would be a Force god had he reached his full potential? For all we know Anakin's full potential could be less than Kun's power or stonger than Marka Ragnos.
I disagree. Fishy, you simply don't know enough about Revan as to where to rank him on the scales of power. We've seen nothing of him that is truly remarkable, only tales from citizens and Kreia - who is a dubious source within herself.
So do not presume to know where Anakin would be if he reached his full potential. He may very well be ABOVE Malak and Revan. You don't know.
Now. As for Sadow and Marka, I can agree. But even then - you STILL don't know.

Yes you do, by all we know all those guys were more then twice as powerful as Sidious. Anakin would not have been.
