Personally I say he does? Let's take a look
What makes a yonko?
Strength? Sure maybe but it's more than that it's also influence and reputation which Buggy has in stride
People say he fumbled his way to the top
But was it really a fumble?
His epithet is the genius jester
All of this was all apart of his plan it might of started out as a misunderstanding but he took it and rolled with it.
There are 4 categories that make a yonko
1. Influence- Buggy was able to influence thousands of impel down soldiers to think he's all that and a bag of chips he as the same exact ability mihawk pointed out about luffy the ability to bring everyone to his side
2. Reputation- sworn brother of Shanks, member of the Roger Pirates, has a 2-0 record against Luffy never once lost to him 1v1 and got out of the marine ford war basically unharmed.
3. Manpower- just like every other yonko he has a fleet behind him and with the addition to crocodile and mihawk and the fact the world thinks they bent the knee to him oh that just skyrocket his influence and Reputation
4. Strength- now most people would generally agree that a yonko's Strength should be far and above all other Pirates and many people may say Buggy doesn't have the Strength to call himself Yonko however that doesn't matter when Mihawk who rivaled Shanks is on his crew plus crocodile who is most likely as strong has any other YC1
So imo Buggy 100% deserves his place
