— In-game description

Gauntlets are a weapon class used by Link in Hyrule Warriors. While wielding it, Link fights using a pair of strength-enhancing gauntlets, enabling him to swing a hefty wrecking ball and tear the earth itself apart.

Variations

Silver Gauntlets: The Level 1 variation. Link wields the Silver Gauntlets from Ocarina of Time, paired with the Ball and Chain from Twilight Princess.
Golden Gauntlets: The Level 2 variation. Link wields the Golden Gauntlets from Ocarina of Time, paired with a larger, golden ball and chain.
'Power Gloves: The Level 3 variation. Link wields a pair of Power Gloves from A Link to the Past, paired with a Chain Chomp wrecking ball.
8-Bit Power Bracelets: The Level ★ variation. Link wears a pair of Power Bracelets from The Legend of Zelda, rendered in 3D and attached to black gloves; they are paired with the Raft from the same game, attached to a green rope and also rendered in 3D.
Power Gloves +: The Level 4 variation. Their appearance is identical to the Power Gloves.
Burning Gloves: The Level 4+ variation. Their appearance is identical to the Power Gloves, but the gauntlets are completely red, with a red Chain Chomp wrecking ball.

Attack	Explanation
Base String^?	Link performs a string of five attacks; He swings the ball right, swings it left, spins it around him, thrusts it forward, and flips before smashing it into the ground a short distance away.
C1^?	Link makes a grab in front of him. If he grabs a Jar, Bomb Flower, or enemy unit, Link will pick them up, and can either slam them down with / or throw them with / . Contents of Jars are automatically dropped, while enemies are automatically thrown.
C2^?	Link digs his hand into the ground, creating a small shockwave; This can be extended, causing Link to pull out a boulder and throw it into the air, then burrow into the ground and leap up with an uppercut. During the second extension, Link is invulnerable while underground.
C3^?	Link pounds his fists together, creating an electric surge around him; This can be extended, causing Link to punch the ground and send out three paralyzing electric pulses in an arc, then dash forward with an electric slap.
C4^?	Link tears a tall stone pillar out from the ground and slams it down in front of him before shattering the pillar with a thrust of the ball; This can be extended, causing Link to instead grab the pillar and spin it around him (throwing it if the second follow-up isn’t performed), then throw the pillar into the air and slam it into the ground.
C5^?	Link charges the gauntlets with electricity, grabs a chunk from the ground in front of him, and vaults away, tearing it out in a blast of energy.
Special Attack	Link smashes the ball into the ground, then jumps, spins 360°, and tears it out, creating an enormous shockwave around him.
Focus Spirit Finisher	Manual: Link swings his ball up into the air, then as it falls, he punches the ball, thrusting it forward with devastating power. Automatic: Link jumps and slams his palm to the ground, releasing his remaining magic in an electric explosion around him.
