What would be the first battle in which an army gunpowder arms clearly triumphed with the weapon's use over the enemy which didn't? I'm curious and want to do some research on the development.

I remember reading something about a Castilian battle/siege in Granada which supposedly was early. Where the Castilian side had all the firepower. But I can't remember much about it. That might be a bit late though seeing as cannons has been used since what, the late 1200's?

Talking about small arms in Europe, it would be Hussite wars.

1400's.

Off the top of my head I believe there were a few instances in the 100 years war where the French rekt the English with artillery, same would apply for Constantinople in 1453 I guess.
