However, since there is more than one incarnation of Link, the Guild rules that whichever version can find and slay the Dreadking Rathalos* the quickest gets paid a HANDSOME fee.
For this scenario, each version of Link will have all of his gear from each Zelda title he was in canonically. For the record, OoX Link =/= ALttP/LA Link, according to the most recent official information in the Zelda Encyclopedia.
(I am just assuming that there is more than one Dreadking Rathalos in existence; I don't really know much about Monster Hunter.)
