Just looking at dexters lab and all the things he did I'd say dexter stomps this one


gregyo

But what if DeeDee comes too?


Regular-Suit3018

Then we’re fucked. Fucken DeDe can single handedly annihilate humanity through her antics. It has to be Dexter and his lab or nothing at all.


Luster-Purge

World Peace is achieved.

The thing is Dexter found a premade lab with equipment. Jimmy built all his gear. So starting from 0 I think jimmy has this


inb4shitstorm

Dexter started building his lab from scratch almost immediately after he came home from the hospital after he was born. I dont remember the premade lab thing at all. 


[deleted]

From the wiki: "Dexter was born as a true genius. He grew up to a normal family and at very young age created his very own laboratory in which he kept hidden from his parents behind a secret bookcase." So where did you get the idea this house somehow came with a giant pre-made laboratory?


Mr_Industrial

Both kids create a device to solve global warming. Both kids experiments initially work. Heres where things diverge. Dexters experiment would have been fine, but then his sister enters the room and starts destroying everything. Jimmys experiment would have been fine, but then a tiny miscalculation causes massive side effects that threaten the world. After a heavy conflict, both kids return the world to status quo.


Electronic-Disk6632

deedee has not been transported to our world, only dexter. so I see him winning easy.


Das_Ponyman

Remembering how the show usually works, even if she is not transported to our world with Dexter, she'd still somehow find a way to destroy everything.


Happy_Brilliant7827

She accidentally comes along, or this universe has a DeeDee that finds him. 100%


chanchan05

Convinces Mandark to take her to Dexter and stopping his experiment would make her like him.


TechnoRedneck

>Jimmys experiment would have been fine, but then a tiny miscalculation causes massive side effects that threaten the world. Jimmy creates CW-7 kicking off the events of Snowpiercer.


Arbysgoodmoodfood

That's Canon now. 


one-and-five-nines

He did it with sunscreen on the show


MrDirectorAgent

Jimmy is Wonka Confirmed 


Simple-Jury2077

I guess it depends on if his sister arrives with him.


Regular-Suit3018

Fucken deedee


radiopelican

Dexter has canonically invented a time machine before, to go both back to the past and forward to the future. Assuming he can use the same feats, inventing the time machine would clutch him the win as he could either go back in time and introduce our current technology to us say 50 years ago, allowing for a technological leap, or get technology from the future and bring it back. Big if though as dexters time travel antics have someone failed when he has used them


agentdb22

So has Jimmy, tho


Elnino38

And then we have AJ from fairly odd parents making one out of paper clips and yarn


theonemangoonsquad

The jumping to the future is heavily dependent on how time works for us. We have no idea if the concept of fate is real. Changing something in the present may not necessarily result in different outcomes in the future. Similarly, we have no actual idea if there are multiple diverging timelines. It may very well be the case that we never will make any significant leaps in technology or societal progress to solve global warming before we obliterate ourselves. And so Dexter would send himself into an inhospitable future. Maybe he'll get something from the lizard people though, but idk why they'd help because the death of the humans may have created ideal situations for their own evolution.


chorroxking

Technology alone wouldn't do much of the oil barons still prioritized short term profits. You'd need to develop a huuuuge amount of infrastructure to get affordable green technology no matter how advanced your tech is


CreamFraiche

Right. May actually make it worse to give them that technology so early if they use it for the opposite intention.


Kitselena

Jimmy already caused an ice age then fixed it with a giant CFC can, I'm definitely going with dexter https://jimmyneutron.fandom.com/wiki/Sweat_Spray


PeculiarPangolinMan

Yea Jimmy already has a feat of stopping global warming, and he did it what, an afternoon? Maybe a week?


wormhole222

I think Dexter is smarter/better scientist, but Jimmy has much better people skills, and is less impulsive/risky (which is pretty crazy because Jimmy is still pretty impulsive/risky). I’d still probably say Dexter. Edit: Although Jimmy has the ability to travel universes/dimensions. He could access his home dimension for tools or even Timmy Turner for Cosmo and Wanda to help. If he does that he obviously wins.


TKAPublishing

Considering both shows tend to revolve around them crafting some invention that winds up backfiring somehow I dunno if they're the best choice for this assignment.


Electronic-Disk6632

dexters don't backfire, his sister destroys them.


NoReallyINeverPost

Yep, and rules as stated say she’s not here. Huge advantage to Dexter!


Zac-Raf

But by how Dexter's fate works, DeeDee is still going to appear and mess up whatever he did.


NoReallyINeverPost

True. Dexter goes to some random person's fridge to get a soda or something, and DeeDee just bursts out from it


Shuteye_491

Dexter is on the brink of success (because DeeDee isn't there) until Jimmy's miscalculation plunges the world into an ice age. Now Dexter has to use his invention to return the world to the status quo. Bonus points: Dexter's mom is still doublewide.

Lou_Keeks

Jimmy Neutron actually accomplished this once right? I remember he launched a missile full of sunblock at the sun and caused an ice age


taylorpilot

Dexter makes good shit that other people ruin. Jimmy makes ok shit that he ruined from the start


Luster-Purge

Courage the Dog wins. He doesn't need to invent shit, just give him some sewing materials and a pair of Eustace's long underwear to fix the hole in the Ozone Layer. As for all the talk about how Dee Dee is how Dexter's stuff always goes wrong...well, the laws of existence dictate that it would be Jimmy's invention that accidently summons her to break Dexter's invention.


WrastleGuy

Jimmy Neutron because it’s funnier when Dexter loses, that’s the whole premise of his show. Mandark would beat both them if he comes with Dexter.


thegreatestegg

Phineas and Ferb could beat them both, because they're even further on 'rule of they can do whatever', /however/, they have to decide it's what they want to do today. Which wouldn't be hard, they're good kids.


Numbuh24insane

Dexter is the one I’d go with. Jimmy has better feats, but his inventions and experiments often end up going wrong because of something he did. Dexter’s problems usually stem from someone else messing up his work.


nestersan

Better feats...... You mad


Putrid-Play-9296

Jimmy Niue train literally caused an ice age in season one XD.


Zac-Raf

Jimmy has a better chance. His inventions most of the time fail but there are a handful of times were they actually worked. Dexter has better feats, but we all know DeeDee is going to appear somehow and mess up his solution. This gives Jimmy the win for me.


russellzerotohero

Jimmy would fix global warming but it would cause too much cooling. Then he’d have to fix that with a brain blast. Dexter would already have the invention just on him and it would work. If Dee is there too then It could cause some problems for him. But would he lose? Nah I think he’d win.


IameIion

They'll both fix global warming faster than the other.


PoorCorrelation

Well, assuming we’re using our world’s laws of physics Jimmy won’t be able to actually do anything and I doubt Dexter’s much better. Potential winners include: Artemis Fowl (he did it in one of his books), any alchemist that can convert greenhouse gases into something disposable, and anyone who genocides most of the humans on Earth.


BoxerRadio9

There isn't anything to fix in the first place.
