Also, most of the bad guys didn't even have Keyblades, so I'm guessing that's not a requirement for a "Keyblade" War?

The interesting thing is, even though a lot of them didn't fight with Keyblades, most of them had the potential for it.

The Norts, Vanitas, and Xion are obviously Keyblade wielders or at least have the potential (Ansem wielded one while possessing Riku and Nomura has said Xemnas can use one).
Marluxia and Larxene were Keyblade wielders in the past.
Luxord...we still don't know his deal but Xemnas said he had the same deal as Marluxia and Larxene (and Demyx).
Xigbar is Luxu
That leaves two who don't have the potential (as far as we know): Dark Riku and Saix.

With Saix, I wouldn't be surprised if they came up with something like "Xehanort touched Isa one time while he was in Ansem's castle and he got bequeathed" in a later game as an excuse for him to get a Keyblade. But Dark Riku? The only excuse I could think of is "he's a Riku replica, so he can wield one because Riku can."
