I prefer to enjoy watching the characters' interactions as opposed to ranking them in terms of intelligence or some other facet of being.

Dipper is primarily an intellectual. Mabel is primarily a emotional being. Soos is good natured and has practical skill. Wendy is intutive and friendly. Stan...he's a con man. A loveable con man, but a con man all the same.

Stan may also be starting something he cannot hope to control or comprehend.
