===Origin===
This track is a remix of the theme that plays on the Overworld of ''Final Fantasy VII'' in Disc One, and it is also unofficially considered [[Cloud]]'s theme because it, along with many of the theme's variations, seems to play whenever something significant relating to him happens during the story. As with the previous remixes, it is done in an orchestral style that resembles the version in ''Final Fantasy VII Remake'', but the overall feeling is more dramatic and upbeat compared to the original being calm and relaxing.

===Trivia===
*At a length of six minutes and two seconds, ''Advent: One-Winged Angel'' is the longest music track in the entire ''Super Smash Bros.'' series.

==Trivia==
*Before the release of Challenger Pack 8, ''Final Fantasy'' was tied with the {{uv|Game & Watch}} universe for the fewest songs of all universes in ''Ultimate'', and had the absolute fewest songs of its third-party universes, with only two. In ''Mr. Sakurai Presents "Sephiroth"'', Sakurai explained that the limited number of songs was due to various licensing difficulties, such as existing exclusivity deals that would not allow for music to be included, and the music copyright being spread across multiple owners, which then had to be properly cleared for each region ''Ultimate'' is available in.
**In the Japanese version of the presentation, he specifically addressed accusations from the fans that Square Enix were being stingy with music licensing, which he strongly denied being the case.
*Prior to the version 10.0.0 update, the [[Sound Test]] referred to the series as ''FINAL FANTASY VII''. This was changed to refer to it as the ''FINAL FANTASY VII Series'', due to it now including music from ''Advent Children''.
*''Final Fantasy'' is the only universe in ''Ultimate'' to feature music sourced directly from media outside of a video game, as three songs are taken from the movie ''Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children''.<!--Non-game music has been previously remixed in Smash: Mario Bros. contains classical music, Kid Icarus's Overworld theme quotes a folk song, Breath Of The Wild's trailer theme isn't from the actual game, etc.-->
**''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' had previously featured music from the {{uv|Kirby}} and {{uv|Pikmin}} series that appeared in non-gaming media. Additionally, {{uv|The Legend of Zelda}}, {{uv|Sonic the Hedgehog}}, and {{uv|Kingdom Hearts}} have music pieces that come from trailers instead of actual games, with ''The Legend of Zelda''{{'}}s being a remix.
*Unlike most remixes in ''Smash'', the ''Final Fantasy'' remixes are owned by Square Enix instead of Nintendo. This trait is shared with the remixes from the {{uv|Sonic the Hedgehog}} and {{uvm3||Undertale}} universes, and certain remixes from the {{uv|Metal Gear}} and {{uv|Street Fighter}} universes, which are respectively owned by Sega, Toby Fox, Konami, and Capcom U.S.A.
*Not counting the ''Other'' music category, ''Final Fantasy'', {{uv|Fire Emblem}} and {{uv|Xenoblade Chronicles}} are the only base game universes to receive additional songs via [[downloadable content]].
**Unlike ''Fire Emblem'' and similarly to ''Xenoblade Chronicles'', the two songs from the base game are not listed before all of the DLC songs; rather, they were repositioned in the relative order that the songs would be heard in ''Final Fantasy VII''.
*Interestingly, the names used for the ''Final Fantasy VII'' battle themes ("Let the Battles Begin!" and "Fight On!") are inconsistent with the ones used for their ''Advent Children'' remixes ("Those Who Fight" and "Those Who Fight Further"). As mentioned, the latter are more accurate translations of the songs' Japanese names.
*"[https://youtu.be/1wMmTIhYQRs/ Electric de Chocobo]" from ''{{iw|wikipedia|Final Fantasy VII}}'' plays in the [[Chocobo]] Mii Fighter costume reveals for both ''[[SSB4]]'' and ''[[Ultimate]]'', but is not available in either of the actual games.
* ''Ultimate's'' arrangements of "Cosmo Canyon" and "Aerith's Theme" would later be featured in ''Theathrythm Final Bar Line'' under the names "Cosmo Canyon -Collab Arrangement-" and "Aerith's Theme -Collab Arrangement-" respectively.
