Only chance is decapitation and even then the Hulk could maybe still regenerate.
That's going on the basis that a lightsabre can cut into/burn the Hulk to begin with.
Well I'm not a comic book aficionado by any stretch, but Sidious's Force Storms can "tear the surfaces off worlds" (Dark Empire Sourcebook) or "kill worlds" (The Jedi Path) and has destroyed a fleet of state-of-the-art capital ships each equipped with shields capable of resisting gigatons of damage. And according to the lore, specifically The Essential Guide to the Force, Palpatine can summon them with "mere thought and inclination."

Those Force Storms won't likely be usable in a close fight like this.
Fair enough, but there is evidence to suggest that Palpatine can travel through one safely (he did so at Endor).

?
The Hulk can stomp him into the ground before Palpatine can think?
Match starts. Sidious cackles and then gets grabbed by his cloak.
Sidious only chance is telepathy, because Savage Hulk has a weak mind according to Thanos. This plays perfectly in Sidious' favor. Its also the smartest thing he can do and considering Hulk's sheer physical prowess I think Palps will be smart enough to avoid an actual fight.
That's great, but right now I'm more interested in the Hulk being able to end the match before Sidious can think. Or how Sidious can win via telepathy, since that too will require him to think. Or how Sidious would be able to formulate a coherent plan of attack (like not attacking the Hulk directly, as you say) since that will require him to think, also. Essentially, is there actually anything to suggest the Hulk can pwn Sidious before Sidious can think other than the script of this fight you provided for me?
