Power Level
During his battle with Goku, Frieza stated that he did not think anyone in the universe had surpassed Ginyu.

Captain Ginyu's power level in the manga, anime, video games (such as Legend of the Super Saiyan, Goku Gekitōden, and Dragon Ball Z: Sagas), and Daizenshuu is stated to be at 120,000. In Goku Gekitōden, Ginyu starts off with a power of 120,000 but can increase it up to 240,000. In the Famicom game Dragon Ball Z II: Gekishin Freeza, Ginyu's battle power is 160,000.

When Ginyu trades bodies with Goku, his power level decreases to 23,000 (as well as decreasing even further, according to Jeice's reading on his scouter in the English dub), as he could not unlock Goku's power. In the Super Famicom game Legend of the Super Saiyan, Ginyu's power level decreases to 33,000.

While fighting Goku in his Kaio-ken x20 power, Frieza states that he must be the one who defeated and killed Captain Ginyu as, according to Frieza, "there was no way Vegeta could have done it". He emphasizes the fact that besides him, Ginyu was the strongest in the universe and offers Goku his position as Frieza's top-man.
