I remember OOT, I don't remember at any time during that final fight that the ball of energy/magic deflected between the two being referred to as lightning. What I believe that it is and should be until proven otherwise is just magical ball of energy. Just because it sparkles doesn't make it lightning. I've just never read anywhere where one of his powers or abilities were to generate lightning.
Gonna respond to this right off the bat. Ganon's been producing lightning since 1991, and we have official art of Link intercepting it with his sword from that era.
It does not simply sparkle, it crackles, it takes on the form of bolts, and it electrocutes you anything it touches.
Link deals with lightning from bosses so frequently in fact that the case could be made on consistency alone, but the fact that we have official art and a canon instance of Link deflecting it really seals the deal. I'm not claiming TP Link can do this, FTR. But we know that Ganondorf certainly can. TP Link may not be be as fast as Ganondorf, but he can hang with him and best him in a sword duel. That is enough.
Wolverine has fought teleporters. He has been able to react to Nightcrawler porting in during a fight.
I don't doubt this, Wolverine is not slow, and you won't catch me calling him slow, either. I know he's fast, I just don't think he can blitz Link.
Wolverine is a better and smarter fighter. He could just counter, use any of his various martial art skills and styles to counter or use Link's strength against him.
This doesn't actually work in practice, unfortunately. There's no conceivable way for him to do this with a strength gap this wide. This is one of the things that bothers me most about him fighting Hulk so often, is that once the Hulk got hold of him there would be no recourse, but the Hulk usually just resorts to beating him down instead of holding him still. Wolverine is likely more skilled, we can't say for certain he's smarter.
I'm not sure about that last part but are you saying that Wolverine isn't going to be able to pop his claws out in a fight or grapple with Link as if he's going to just hold them down?
What I'm arguing there is that in a match of striking blows back and forth and fencing, Wolverine has the best chance. If it turns to a grapple at any point Link can manipulate Wolverine's body as he pleases regardless of the latter's skill, and Wolverine's claws would be more dangerous to himself than Link, this has been done to him before.
The sword isn't really anything stronger than what he's been hit with by before. Calling it mini-Mjolnir is a bit of an overstatement, it hurting Ganondorf is part of it's design. It was made to be his counter and bane last time I checked, an evil slaying sword.
It is an overstatement, but that's why I called it 'mini'. I have no misconceptions about which is more powerful, lol. Still, it IS powerful. As for the Ganondorf thing, this is a misconception.
It is a sword that destroys evil but that's actually not why it was created, it actually existed before long before Ganondorf, possibly before the world did. It was created by the gods for their own use, and remade by the first Hero, then other things happen, then in Skyward Sword it was forged in the flames of Din, Farore and Nayru, blah blah, blah.
The important detail is that it predates Ganondorf, and he has no weakness to the blade itself, or it's simply capable of ****ing him up on its' own merits. As I said before how much of it is offensive v.s. suppressing is up for debate, but it has high end feats of its' own that have nothing to do with Ganondorf or evil at all.
It is an evil slaying sword, as well as an anti-magic sword, a sentient sword, a time transcending sword, a flash light, a laser gun, and general plot device, lol.
Busy off-site so can't fully respond, just a few points.
