I honestly think Percy will win. While Thalia is a huntress, Percy had discovered a lot of new powers. Plus it’s been implied that he can control other liquids. For example: in the SoN we see him deflect poison off while fighting Polybotes with his will. Then in the MoA we see him get some pure water off Jason’s lungs. Finally in the HOH we actually see him choke Akhyls with her own tears (that are poison). But it is unlikely he’d use it unless it’s bloodlusted.

Secondly, we’ve seen him tank lightning from both Jason and Thalia. I don’t know where the assumption comes from that Thalia’s bolt is stronger than Jason’s especially since Jason kinda got a lightning bolt booster in the BoO.

Combat wise they are more or less equal. Thalia might’ve been out of practice using a sword since she’s a huntress now. So it is safe to assume Percy might be able to beat her with his properly developed powers and combat.

Percy does have limited geokineses to. In the SoN, when he stabs riptide to the glacier, it kinda shakes and breaks down. Even in TLO, the bridge shakes while Percy is fighting Kronos. Furthermore, like it or not, Thalia is basically close to a featless character due to not having screen time (or book time). Her feats are basically: defeated Luke is a duel (this is while she’s super mad at him for betraying them) nonetheless counts, helped defeat the nemean lion, and. . . Defeated a bunch of monsters, oh yeah, she also fought of some of those stuff in the sword of Hades.

Percy on the other hand is on a whole new level fighting giants, titans and gods emerging victorious is those fights. Some of name are: Polybotes, Akhlys, Phobos, Kronos, Hyperion, holding up the sky, Ares, defeating the Minotaur with little to no training.

Hence it is safe to say who in my opinion is most likely to emerge victorious in this battle.
