| '''Ganondorf''' (also known as '''Ganon''') is the main antagonist of ''The Legend of Zelda'' series, and is the archenemy to [[Link]] and [[Zelda]]. Originally a leader of the Gerudo, a race of desert brigands, he acquired great magical power (the source of which varies) to become a demon emperor of darkness. Ganondorf's motives and desires vary from game to game, but most often include the domination of Hyrule and probably the world beyond it. To this end he seeks the relic of the gods known as the Triforce, which can grant great power to its holder. Ganondorf's influence over the Triforce varies, but he is consistently shown as being associated with the Triforce of Power and is often in possession of it, giving him great strength but not enough to fulfill his dark desires, leading him to hunt the remaining Triforce pieces. He appears fighting with [[Mario]] and other Nintendo characters in the ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''.

| In the crossover game ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', Ganondorf was a hidden fighter, unlocked by clearing Event Match 29: Triforce Gathering, and then defeating Ganondorf in the next match. In both the event and the following fight, the player uses Link. Ganondorf has a similar moveset to [[Captain Falcon]]. However, Ganondorf's attacks are much slower than Falcon's, and are much more powerful. In ''Melee'', he was voiced by [[Takashi Nagasako]], who also voices [[Donkey Kong]] in most of the [[Mario]] games.

| Ganondorf returns as an unlockable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', with his Twilight Princess design. He can be unlocked by clearing Classic Mode with [[Link]] or [[Zelda]] on hard difficulty, playing 200 Brawl matches, or having Ganondorf join the team in the Subspace Emissary. His [[Final Smash]] is [[#Final Smash: Beast Ganon|Beast Ganon]], in which he briefly transforms into his beast form, Ganon.

| ===Special Moves===
| |
| ====Warlock Punch====
| |
| [[Image:Ganondorfbmove.jpg|thumb|left|'''Warlock Punch''']] | |
| | |
| '''Warlock Punch''' is one of Ganondorf's attacks in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. It is performed by pressing the B Button. Ganondorf will charge shadow energy, then punch forward, severely damaging anyone who gets in the way. However, the attack is very slow, and leaves Ganondorf vulnerable. The attack itself is similar to [[Captain Falcon]]'s [[Falcon Punch]]; however, it is more powerful and slower. [[Kirby]] copies this attack when he uses [[Swallow]] on Ganondorf.
| |
| | |
| The attack's animation differs between ''Super Smash Bros Melee'' and ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''.
| |
| <br clear=all>
| |
| ====Gerudo Dragon====
| |
| [[Image:Ganondorfbforwardmove.jpg|thumb|'''Gerudo Dragon''']] | |
| | |
| '''Gerudo Dragon''' is Ganondorf's side special move, only appearing in the game ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. It works similarly to [[Captain Falcon|Captain Falcon's]] [[Raptor Boost]] attack. Ganondorf will then punch forward, with his hand filled with dark energy, dealing a large amount of damage to any player in its path. Unlike Raptor Bost, however, this move will send anyone that is hit straight forward, rather than straight up.
| |
| | |
| In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', this move is replaced with [[#Flame Choke|Flame Choke]], which, although similar, knocks the opponent to the ground instead of the air.
| |
| <br clear=all>
| |
| ====Flame Choke====
| |
| [[Image:FlameChoke.jpg|thumb|left|'''Flame Choke''']] | |
| | |
| '''Flame Choke''' is Ganondorf's side special move in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. He grabs characters by the forehead, then thrusts their head to the ground. The attack works better in midair, as there is a greater distance to the ground; therefore, more damage is dealt.
| |
| | |
| This move replaces the move [[#Gerudo Dragon|Gerudo Dragon]] from ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''.
| |
| <br clear=all>
| |
| ====Dark Dive====
| |
| [[Image:DarkDiveB.jpg|thumb|'''Dark Dive''']] | |
| [[Image:Ganondorfbupmove.jpg|thumb|left|Ganondorf performing '''Dark Dive''' on [[Luigi]].]]
| |
| '''Dark Dive''' is Ganondorf's up special move in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. Ganondorf will use a dark energy to jump high. If he hits someone on the way, he will grab them, and then release an explosion of dark matter, pushing the two in opposite directions. The attack is a much more powerful version of [[Captain Falcon]]'s [[Falcon Dive]]. The attack can be used multiple times in one jump, as long as Ganondorf strikes an opponent with each repetition of the move.
| |
| <br clear=all>
| |
| ====Wizard's Foot====
| |
| [[Image:Ganondorfbdownmove.jpg|thumb|'''Wizard's Foot''']] | |
| | |
| '''Wizard's Foot''' is Ganondorf's down special move in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. If performed in the air, he will kick diagonally toward the ground in the direction he's facing. If used on the ground, he will slide across the ground, kicking anyone he collides with into the air. The ground move is, in most situations, the most effective of the two. The attack is similar to [[Captain Falcon|Captain Falcon's]] [[Falcon Kick]].
| |
| <br clear=all>
| |
| ====Beast Ganon====
| |
| [[Image:Beast_Ganon.jpg|thumb|left|'''Beast Ganon''']] | |
| | |
| '''Beast Ganon''' is Ganondorf's [[Final Smash]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. When Ganondorf activates his Final Smash, he transforms into the Dark Beast Ganon, roaring after transforming. This roar paralyzes anyone on the ground on front of him, stopping them from moving out of the way. However, if a player is in the air, they will not be stunned. The transformation alone thrusts nearby players into the ground, as long as they are not in the air. After about a second after his transformation, Beast Ganon charges forward at a considerable speed, running in a straight path, and off the edge of the stage. However, after this, Beast Ganon transforms back into Ganondorf, and reappears where he was standing when he activated the Final Smash. The charge is high in power, launching even players with little damage off of the stage with ease. However, Ganon will only hit players in front of him.

| ===[[Solid Snake]] Codec Conversation===
| |
| | |
| *'''Snake''': This guy is giving off a murderous vibe! Even getting close to him makes my skin crawl...
| |
| *'''Otacon''': Snake! Ganondorf is dangerous! His ambition is to rule the world, and he's got the power to do it. It's no wonder they call him "King of Evil."
| |
| *'''Snake''': Do modern weapons even work against him? Do I even have a chance?
| |
| *'''Otacon''': Take a look around you. There are plenty of people fighting with swords or even their bare hands. At least you've got firepower! Count yourself lucky! It's not like you to whine, Snake.
| |
| *'''Snake''': I was just asking, sheesh. Well, it's back to the mission for me.

| ===Role in the [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl#Story|Subspace Emissary]]===
| |
| {{spoiler}}
| |
| [[Image:Subspace_ganondorf.PNG|thumb|left|Ganondorf's snapshot in The Subspace Emissary.]]
| |
| In the Subspace Emissary storyline, Ganondorf is the true commander of the [[Subspace Army]], working for [[Master Hand]] to bring the world into Subspace, though he plots to betray him and seize his power. He gathers several other villains such as [[Wario]]. [[Bowser]] acts as his second in command and does most of the dirty work, while Ganondorf works behind the scenes. Wario, however, chose to ignore his duties and do whatever he wanted (until he was turned into a trophy and sucked into [[Subspace (SSB)|Subspace]]). When many of the heroes infiltrate [[The Subspace Bomb Factory]] on the [[Isle of Ancients]], he reveals himself to them and commands the [[Robotic Operating Buddy|R.O.B.]]s to set off multiple [[Subspace Bomb]]s. He even commands them to attack the [[Ancient Minister]], who then reveals himself to be the leader of the R.O.B.s and assists the fighters. The island is absorbed into Subspace, shortly after the heroes escape. Ganondorf emerges from Subspace with Bowser on a massive [[Subspace Gunship]], and fires at the [[Battleship Halberd]], destroying it.
| |
| | |
| However, soon after that explosion, some of the game's heroes emerge from the explosion: [[Captain Olimar]], [[Samus]], and [[Captain Falcon]], and [[Fox]], all in their own ships. They all shoot at the Subspace Gunship; however, the gunship is too powerful for them to destroy. Ganondork attempts to destroy all the ships; however, [[Kirby]] then arrives, riding on [[Dragoon]]. He flies straight through the gunship's cannon, causing it to explode. The rest of the heroes keep firing at the Subspace Gunship, causing it to burst into flames, several parts exploding as well. However, shortly before the gunship is completely destroyed, Bowser and Ganondorf travel back into subspace.
| |
| | |
| Afterward, the two travel to Master Hand. However, Ganondorf then betrays Bowser, using the only remaining [[Dark Cannon]] to reduce him to a trophy. Master Hand himself is seen to be controlled by [[Tabuu]], the embodiment of Subspace. Ganondorf, surprised at this revelation, leaps to attack the dark being, only to be turned into a trophy himself. When Bowser is revived by [[King Dedede]], he furiously attacks Ganondorf's trophy in an act of vengeance. [[Link]] and [[Zelda]] come across the trophy and revive him, forming a temporary alliance as all the characters prepare for the final battle against Tabuu. After every fighter is returned to normal, all of them, including Ganondorf, battle Tabuu, eventually defeating him. After Tabuu is destroyed, the world, save the island that held the subspace bomb factory, is returned from subspace.

He plundered a piece of the sacred Triforce from the Temple of Time when Link pulled the Master Sword from its pedestal. With the Triforce of Power in Ganondorf's possession, Hyrule was plunged into darkness until Link and Zelda defeated the fiend.

| |''Since he's slow and can't jump very high, Ganondorf relies mainly on his immense physical strength to overwhelm his enemies. His great weight also makes him a difficult foe to send offscreen. Ganondorf's Warlock Punch is slow but absurdly powerful, and when he strikes with his Gerudo Dragon, enemies rise skyward enveloped in dark flames.

Ganondorf can't strike quickly, but each blow he lands adds up. Ganondorf is at his quickest when he uses the Wizard's Foot, and his Dark Dive blasts foes in a burst of dark energy.

| == Trivia ==
| |
| *In [[Toys#Nintendo_Monopoly|Nintendo Monopoly]], Ganondorf takes the role of Pacific Avenue, and costs $300.
| |
| *In ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', though Ganondorf is depicted holding a sword in his official artwork, he only uses this sword in one of his [[taunt]]s, rather than as an attack.
| |
| *Ganondorf's hand can be seen in the intro of ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', though he is a secret character, just as [[Pichu]] and [[Jigglypuff]], two other secret characters, also appear in the intro.
| |
| *Ganondorf is the only character whose moveset is similar to that of [[Captain Falcon|a character from another series]].
