People still believe that?
Its clear that Itachi was above Jiraya, by leagues. But why should Itachi, beeing a Leaf Shinobi himself, kill another Leaf Shinobi if he doesn't have to?
As if he could defeat Jiraya. He took out so many of Nagato's paths without intel and yet he's gonna be defeated by someone like Itachi. Yeah... sure.

It's funny, before Madara and Hashirama was revealed people categorized them as weak.

We haven't seen Jiraiya's full power yet. Despite his death.

Even Kabuto wanted to resurrect him, Obito even said "Don't push your luck".

Don't think so. He's only got three, else he would have used them all. You can teach somebody how to perform jutsu, even if you can't do the jutsu yourself. Kakashi and the RS are examples of this.

He never said he taught Nagato how to use all 5 elements.

And all shinobi can use the basic 5 element on a weak level, as seen when the Alliance performed earth walls.

Here's my two cents.

Jiraiya could have summoned Shima and Fukasaku to help him teach as between the three of them, they have Fire, Earth, Wind and Water.

After mastering those four, Nagato would have a good amount of experience in nature/shape manipulation and could've mastered Lightning by himself.

He taught Nagato all 5 element basic techniques, having the Rinnegan at his advantage here.

By that logic, can Jiraiya perform 5 elements?

I'm beginning to see why Jiraiya is feared. Probably one of the reasons Itachi and Kisame didn't want to fight him.
I guess Minato has raikiri now too right? And Asuma has shadow manipulation, body expansion, and mind transfer technique, in fact, every sensei knows every jutsu that his student has right? So Hiruzen has shadow snake hands and snake shedding technique? Oh oh and Jiraiya has Konan's paper manipulation too yeah? Right? Get out of here you damn fanboy! Jiraiya said that Nagato had already mastered all five elements by the age of 10, that in no way means that Jiraiya can use all five elements. Kakashi taught Naruto how to manipulate wind, does Kakashi have wind jutsu too now? Damn troll!

You're the troll mate, an individual technique and nature transformations are two different things.

Those techniques didn't exist until the student's time, whereas natures have existed for as long as chakra.

He knows four.

He can use earth and fire himself...
Gamabunta can use water...
Fukusaku can use wind...

He's only missing lightning

That's not how it works Lol
Its not always necessary to know something to teach it. Only five characters can perform all five elements: Kaguya, Hagoromo, Hiruzen, Nagato and Guruguru.

He was respected overall because of his legendary status, and to the highest ranking members in Konoha because of his teacher and students.
I&K's comment means two things for me, but its certainly not a literal remark. Don't understand why you brought that up.

I wouldnt be suprised in Jiraiya(hiruzens student) if he had like 4 nature elements. Hes not one of the shinobis with a few OP moves, he owns because he uses many different jutsu in intelligent ways.

I guess then Kakashi can use wind release since he taught it to Naruto and it has existed 'for as long as chakre' right? Point still stands, troll!

Kakashi didn't teach him the Wind Style Rasengan, he demonstrated the Basic Non-Elemental Rasengan. Naruto infused the Wind Style on his own.
Naruto learned how to infuse wind style into rasengan on his own? Yes, you're right. Naruto learned to manipulate wind in the first place on his own? No, Kakashi taught him that with the leaf cutting excercise and the waterfall spitting excercise. Naruto came up with the 'idea' to infuse wind style into rasengan on his own? Nope! Kakashi told him about it, and only because it was Minato's idea and he told Kakashi about it.
