You compared Dipper to Gideon and Mabel, but you failed to compare him to the other characters, whether main or minor.

Gideon and Dipper, I would say, are at near the same 'place', 'rank', or 'plane' of intelligence.

Dipper obviously​​​  trumps Mabel book-wise, but Mabel is shown to have a 'think-out-of-the-box' mindset. Still, Dipper still is superior in intelligence; however, Mabel posses thinking which is also nessecary( I did not spell it right) for the 'Mystery Twins' to survive.

Dipper's incredibly intelligent, I have to admit, but his intelligence is packaged with his curiousness and yet he is naive and unfortunately oblivious to some major things happening lying behind a certain snack machine. But, his curious ness is ,most of the time, lesser than his sister's, so I must not deduct points, especially if it doesn't have to deal intelligence as it is. But, his curiousness surpasses ,at certain times, his sister's and most of the time when it dies, it endangers the gang severely.
