Dodging someting isn't the same as moving at the same speed of an object.

A regular human can dodge a bullet- that doesn't mean they move faster than bullets.

Cloud moves faster than bullets, as in, his entire body can accelerate to Supersonic speeds- possibly Hypersonic (need to look into that actually- since they were assault rifles it may well be Hypersonic). Link has never demonstrated that level of speed- not even close. Cloud literally moves his entire being faster than a bullet travels.

And as for Link dodging lightning- I assume you mean Orcarina of Time Ganondorf?

That does not look, move, or act like lightning. So I am not willing to call that lightning in the least. It looks like a magical ball of electricity- which immediately forfeits all mention of "lightning reactions" based on it. The lightning that Cloud dodges at least looks and moves similar to lightning.
