" I find it suspect that Link was allowed so many of his equipment choices when Cloud was not, why could Link have his pick of necessary toys while Cloud had to be limited? The excuse given was "they're his signature materia" and the Buster Sword was "his signature weapon". Link was given the Golden Gauntlets- those appeared in  one game - they're not his signature equipment in the slightest."

In the Death Battle, they said "Best Possible Defense", and i think the Golden Gauntlets count.
