Gatorade will also replace the salts (electrolytes) you sweat out at the same time as the water that leaves your body. Drinking water alone not only doesn't help, it dehydrates you more, since there is nothing to absorb back into the blood and the salts still left become more diluted.

Whats better Gatorade or water?
It depends on the type of sport you're playing, and the weather conditions. On a very hot day where the heat index is at a dangerous level, and where you are sweating well above normal, Gatorade might be a decent choice. Sports involving padding/helmets and hot weather certainly warrant consideration of Gatorade. The idea of Gatorade hydrating you any better than water is a complete myth. Gatorade contains electrolytes, which water doesn't, to help aid your basic muscular functions in extreme conditions. But it isn't absorbed into your system any better or more quickly than water is. This is a very common misconception that has been drilled into our heads by Gatorade's marketing campaign. The amount of sugar in the drink is worrisome, however. I recommend cutting Gatorade in 2 with water. 90% of athletes should just stick to water. And drinking Gatorade while not playing a sport is completely unnecessary!

Is drinking pop better than drinking Gatorade?
By better, I assume that you mean 'nutritionally better' rather than better tasting. Gatorade is better for you as it is not as acidic and is based upon the chemistry of sweat - one of your natural body fluids. Thus it would be better for both re-hydration and your overall health, however; there is still a lot of sugar in Gatorade so remember than it is not ideal. The best thing for you to drink would be water.
