Shikamaru... being a genius ninja and being a genius are two different things. Shikamaru is definitely smarter, don't bring in fighting potential into this, the guy asked only about brains...


stats given in the databooks

shikamaru 5
sasuke 3.5

that was before pain arc. and knowing that sasuke lost some of his intelligence after that time, we can easily say that shikamaru is at least twice as better

xd Oh my Gawd :p

How did Sasuke lose intellect...a lot of his decisions were driven by anger and hate...Shikamaru also let his anger get the best of him when Asuma died and he was going to lead his team to their deaths against Kakuzu and Hidan going out by themselves before Kakashi intervened

I think that Shikamaru's IQ went down since Asuma died. And Sasuke has actually become more intelligent. Databook 4, Sasuke 5 Shikamaru 3.5

Exactly. The fact that he tried to solo the 5 Kages plus their assistants=****ing retarted.

That's not too hard. It's Shikamaru ofcourse. Sasuke is pretty smart too, but he's nothing for Shikamaru.

Though, Sasuke beats Shikamaru in power.

Oh come on, is this even a contest, Sasuke is clever but far from Shikamaru's level, I mean Shikamaru hasn't got much apart from that so he has to be damn good it.

Databook says he has a 5 intelligence, but his IQ is beyond 200. That means he should have a 10.
But we all know scores don't go beyond 5.
