The Gullwings are a group of treasure-hunting fairies made up of Yuna, Rikku, and Paine. They have a minor role in [[Kingdom Hearts II]]. The name is a reference to the sphere-hunting group that the three girls are a part of in [[wikipedia:Final Fantasy X-2|Final Fantasy X-2]].  

In [[Jiminy Cricket|Jiminy's]] Journal, the name Gullwings is not mentioned but merely the description the girls gave themselves in the middle of Final Fantasy X-2's story, though the Journal still mentions the trio's original description of the Gullwings as "friendly neighborhood". Furthermore, despite [[Yuna]] and [[Rikku]] actually making their first appearances in Final Fantasy X alongside [[Tidus]], [[Wakka]], and [[Auron]], they are listed as first appearing in X-2 so as not to break the unity of the trio. However, in the cast part of the end credits, their names are grouped with Auron as both Final Fantasy X and X-2 occur in the same continuity.

Interestingly, Rikku was supposed to make a solo appearance in the original [[Kingdom Hearts]]; however, since there was already another [[Riku]], she was replaced with [[Yuffie]]. Looking closely shows pieces of her costume in Yuffie's ''Kingdom Hearts'' outfit.

Earlier in the game, Rikku almost mentioned that they were on [[Maleficent]]'s side, until her mouth was closed by Paine. Later on, [[Donald Duck|Donald]] lies to them, telling them that [[Leon]] has treasure that he can give them in order to get them to help out during the [[Battle of the 1000 Heartless]]. They are later seen working together to take down an [[Armored Knight]] Heartless; Yuna and Rikku slap each other high-fives, and then run away when a massive legion of Armored Knights rush them. When Sora, Donald, and Goofy encounter them later, they confront them about Donald's lie, and decide to take all of their items in retribution. However, when Sora flat-out refuses and attempts to apologize for tricking them, they tell him to forget it, and that Leon had told them of their battle against [[Organization XIII]] and how rough that their journey had been. Believing it to be wrong to take all of their items after all that they had been through, they give Sora the [[Gullwing]] [[Keyblade]] as a sign of forgiveness, and then depart after performing their trademark pose.

They are last seen during the end credits, stealing a stick of [[sea-salt ice cream]] from [[Yuffie]] and provoking her into chasing them.

''They claim to come in peace...but, really, what ARE they?''

==Changes from Final Fantasy X-2==

True to Final Fantasy X-2, the trio sport their trademark pose, with slight differences due to lack of their weapons (Yuna's X-2 weapon were a pair of guns which could not be used here for obvious reasons, even though guns, both fictionalized and otherwise, have already been featured wielded by [[Clayton]], the inhabitants of [[Port Royal]], [[Stitch]], [[Xigbar]], and in some way, [[Sora|Sora's]] [[Wisdom Form]], even in the English version for the former two). Another change to the trio is their more gracious attire as opposed to their somewhat revealing ones in the original game (Yuna originally had hot pants and Rikku wore a bikini top and had no stockings. Again, [[Paine]] remains relatively unchanged). Also, the three girls each have wings that are unique to them. Yuna has bird-like wings on the band at the end of her ponytail. Rikku's wings are the long, loose ends of her scarf. Paine's wings are black, bat-like structures on her back.

 

 

 

However, personality-wise, the trio remain relatively unchanged: Yuna is unfailingly kind-hearted and polite, even bowing in respect to Sora, Donald, and Goofy and apologizing to them for bothering them; Rikku is good-natured and ditzy, the latter of which shows when she nearly reveals to Sora and friends who they were working for; and Paine is emotionally distant and anti-social.
