“	My only mistake was to slightly underestimate the power of this kid... No... it was not the kid's power I misjudged, it was the power of the Triforce of Courage! But, with the Triforce of Wisdom that Zelda has... When I obtain these two Triforces... Then, I will become the true ruler of the world!!	„
	~ Ganondorf before engaging in battle with Link

“	My country lay within a vast desert. When the sun rose into the sky, a burning wind punished my lands, searing the world. And when the moon climbed into the dark of night, a frigid gale pierced our homes. No matter when it came, the wind carried the same thing... Death. But the winds that blew across the green fields of Hyrule brought something other than suffering and ruin. I coveted that wind, I suppose.	„
	~ Ganondorf recounting his past while atop his tower

“	Your people have long amused me, Midna. To defy the gods with such petty magic, only to be cast aside...How very pathetic. Pathetic as they were, though, they served me well. Their anguish was my nourishment. Their hatred bled across the void and awakened me. I drew deep of it and grew strong again. Your people had some skill, to be sure...but they lacked true power. The kind of absolute power that those chosen by the gods wield. He who wields such power would make a suitable king for this world, don't you think?	„

	~ Ganon before battling Link for control of the Triforce

Summary

Ganon, also commonly known by his original Gerudo form Ganondorf, is the main antagonist of The Legend of Zelda series.

He is often in possession of the Triforce of Power, a piece of the golden power imbued with the essence of Din, which grants him godlike strength and magical power as well as makes him immortal, making him one of the greatest threats to not only the kingdom of Hyrule but also the rest of the world. As the manifestation of the Demon Tribe's hatred for the gods and the direct reincarnation of the Demon King Demise himself, Ganon can never truly be destroyed and will eternally resurface in some form to pursue his goals of world domination.

The original Ganondorf was born as the sole male of the Gerudo tribe in a hundred years and due to tradition was made their king. Raised by the twin witches Koume and Kotake, Ganondorf grew into a powerful and feared warlock who desired to expand his kingdom beyond the sands of the desert and sought after the Triforce to achieve his ambition. Depending on the timeline he either sneaks into the Sacred Realm after the child Hero of Time unlocks the Door of Time, receiving the Triforce of Power after failing to obtain the completed Triforce due to his imbalanced heart, or he is sentenced to execution for his crimes and by a "divine prank" receives the Triforce of Power just before he succumbed to his fatal wounds.

All the abilities of his base form, plus he now possesses the Triforce of Power which blesses him with the chosen power of the gods and grants him vastly increased physical strength (After tapping into the power of his Triforce piece, Ganondorf broke free from chains that left him completely helpless beforehand), Immortality (Type 2 - He is able to live through fatal wounds without the need for healing the damage, Type 3, and enhanced Type 4. After being killed by the Sword of Six Sages, the Triforce of Power brought Ganondorf back to life just moments later), Regeneration (Low-Godly - After being defeated by Link and Midna his body began burning away and soon after he emerged in a fiery form, which is confirmed to be his soul, and soon after he reformed his physical body), possibly Deconstruction (When the Triforce of Power activated Ganondorf was able to grab and possibly disintegrate the Sage of Water, although it's unclear if this is simply how beings like the sages die), Transformation (The Triforce of Power had allowed him to become a demon, and allows him to transform into his larger and more powerful beast form), Longevity (Ganondorf lived for hundreds of years between the events of Ocarina of Time and Wind Waker, only becoming middle aged during that time), Non-Physical Interaction (When the Triforce of Power activated Ganondorf was able to grab and destroy the Sage of Water, a transparent being who lacks a physical body), Darkness Manipulation (He is able to conjure paralyzing waves of darkness that he can use as an invisible Aura that keeps significantly weaker opponents from going near him, he could also cover entire rooms in darkness that requires the light of the Triforce of Wisdom to dispel), Unholy Manipulation & Corruption (Type 2 - The Triforce of Power turned him into a demon, and demons can emit fiendish power that can turn small innocent creatures into monsters, after gaining the Triforce of Power his evil power seeped out across Hyrule and gradually turned it into a land of monsters, it was his evil power that allowed Zant to turn the citizens of the Twilight Realm into shadow beasts, with guides also stating his powers are part of the reason the Twili had become demons), Large Size (Type 0 in his beast form; Towers over Link and is roughly 3.35 meters tall) and Berserk Mode (If the Triforce of Power forces him into his beast form he'll enter a frenzied state, causing him to attack wildly and without much thought)

Resistance to Soul Manipulation (Triforce pieces protect their user from Zants twilight veil, which turns all caught within it to become spirits), Unholy Manipulation & Corruption (Triforce pieces prevent their user from being corrupted and turned into a demon), Information Analysis (Navi couldn’t identify a weakness on Ganon after he tapped into the power of his Triforce piece to transform)

All previous abilities, plus the usage of Twilight Magic, granting him Matter Manipulation (Broke down his own body into particles and later reformed himself when he was expelled from Zeldas body, transportation via Twilight Magic in general requires breaking down people and/or objects into particles and then restoring them back to a solid state), Selective Intangibility (Turned into twilight particles to phase through Midna and into Zeldas body), and Possession (Possessed Zelda's corpse by entering her body as twilight particles), possibly possesses other twilight abilities such as Creation & Light Absorption (Possibly scales to Zant who could create shadow crystals that absorb light), and Soul Manipulation (Possibly scales to Zant, whose twilight veil turns people into spirits). He also wields the Sword of the Sages, which possesses Regeneration Negation (Low-Godly, the sword was capable of bypassing Ganondorfs regeneration and killing him, and even after being revived by the Triforce of Power the wound he received from the sword didn't heal even by the time he battled Link hundreds of years later)

All the abilities of his base form and the Triforce of Power, plus he possesses the True Force, which grants him Reality Warping (The Triforce can grant the wishes of anyone who touches it, warped the Sacred Realm into the Dark World when he first touched the Triforce, Yuga would have warped and remade Lorule in his image if he obtained the complete Triforce, and the Triforce is the foundation of the world, with it's absence causing the world to gradually crumble), Healing (The Triforce can heal the user and restore others back to full health after they had came down sick), Statistics Reduction (The Triforce can weaken others), Energy Manipulation & Intangibility (The Triforce grants the user the ability to coat their body in energy that make attacks phase through them), Light Manipulation (The Triforce can project light to dispel darkness), Soul Manipulation (The Triforce allows the user to transfer their spirit into another persons body), Shapeshifting & Cloth Manipulation (The Triforce allows the user to change their appearance and clothes), Resurrection & Biological Manipulation (The Triforce resurrected the king and restored his flesh after Agahnim had killed him and reduced him to a skeleton), Creation (The Triforce can created another Triforce), Telekinesis (The Triforce plunged the statue of Hylia to the surface and used it to crush and kill Demise), Water Manipulation (The Triforce flooded and submerged what little remained of Hyrule), Power Nullification (The Triforce broke the sleeping curse that was placed on Zelda, the Bow of Light, which is imbued with the light of the Triforce, can nullify Yugas ability to turn into a painting and force him back to his normal form), Paralysis Inducement (The Bow of Light leaves Yuga paralyzed in it's light after it hits him), and Transmutation (The power of the Triforce can turn people into a reflection of their heart and mind) }}

Attack Potency: At least Building level+ (Much stronger than Child Link) | At least Large Island level (Superior to Twinrova, who could fight the Hero of Time after he had obtained the Master Sword and the combined power of 5 Sages, with just one sage possessing greater power than the Master Sword) | Small Planet level (Capable of harming himself with his own magic), several of his abilities ignore durability | Universe level (Possesses and is empowered by the completed Triforce), several of his abilities ignore durability

Speed: Supersonic+ with Relativistic reactions and combat speed (Superior to Child Link) | Massively Hypersonic+ (Faster than Onox, who is capable of moving this fast), with Relativistic reactions and combat speed (Superior to the Child Hero of Time, who can react to Beamos lasers) | Massively Hypersonic+ with Relativistic reactions and combat speed (Comparable or superior to the Ganon from Four Swords Adventures) | Massively Hypersonic+ with FTL, likely higher, combat speed and reactions (The True Force makes him far faster than when he just possesses the Triforce of Power, putting him well above characters such as BOTW Link)

Lifting Strength: Class 50 (Superior to Child Link) | At least Class M (Far superior to monsters like Gohma, who can casually lift up and move large chunks of bedrock) | Class Z (Physically stronger than the Hero of Time who has the power of the Golden Gauntlets, and the Triforce of Power should grant him greater physical strength than The Four Giants) | At least Class Z (Immensely stronger than before)

Striking Strength: At least Building level+ | At least Large Island level | Small Planet level | Universe level

Durability: At least Building level+ (Wasn't threatened at all by Child Link) | At least Large Island level (Took many blows from Oracles Link) | Small Planet level (Can withstand being struck by Light Arrows, which are strong enough to damage Twinmold) | Universe level (Empowered by the completed Triforce)

Stamina: Superhuman (Should scale to other well-trained Gerudo who can fight with and train for long periods of time without fatigue) | Superhuman (Fought Link for several days straight) | Superhuman (He can continually battle with various incarnations of Link while ignoring and laughing off fatal wounds and showing no signs of tiring. Kept his castle floating dozens, if not hundreds, of feet in the air for several years nonstop with his magic and wasn't fatigued by this in the slightest) | Superhuman

Range: Standard Melee Range to Extended Melee Range (He's a 7'6 tall man who has often wielded swords the size of normal men), Tens of Kilometers with Magic (Can create storms reaching out to the horizon), Interdimensional with Dimensional Travel and BFR | Standard Melee Range to Extended Melee Range, Tens of Kilometers with Magic (Same as his base form), Interdimensional with Dimensional Travel and BFR | Physically the same range as before (Although his beast form would have Extended Melee Range by virtue of size). Interstellar with magic (Should have comparable range to his Four Swords Adventures incarnation), Interdimensional with Dimensional Travel and BFR (He can easily travel between the Light World and the Dark World, and he can send his targets into the Dark World or banish them to the gap between dimensions) | Extended Melee Range (His size alone warrants this, carries a trident almost as large as himself), Universal with magic and reality warping (Able to affect the entire Sacred Realm), Interdimensional with Dimensional Travel and BFR

Standard Equipment:

• Triforce of Power: A piece of the golden power created by the Golden Goddesses that he possesses in most of his incarnations, the Triforce of Power enhances his physical and magical strength to godlike levels, making him nearly invulnerable to most forms of damage in the Zelda series and granting him immortality. It also protects him from the effects of his own corruption magic.

Optional Equipment:

• Dual Blades: A pair of swords that Ganon keeps hidden in his selves during the events of the Wind Waker. Both blades are over a foot long greatly increasing his melee range and are crafted well enough to even clash with the Master Sword.
• Sword of Six Sages: A blade originally used to try and kill Ganon during his execution, he tore it out of his own chest and kept it as his own during the events of Twilight Princess. Being comparable in size to grown men it gives him much more reach in close quarters combat and the sword also possesses the ability to somewhat negate regenerative powers as it left a massive wound across Ganon's chest that he was never able to heal from.

Intelligence:

• Base
• Botched Ressurection

Genius (Despite his reputation as a thief and being known by most of the races of Hyrule to have placed curses on people to get his way, he still gained and maintained the trust of the king of Hyrule while also running his own country in the desert to the west. He managed to deduce that Link held the means to open the Door of Time with what little interaction he had with him and secretly followed him into the Temple of Time in order to enter the Sacred Realm and claim the Triforce. He used Zant's insanity and desperation to his advantage by falsely posing as a god and granting him a portion of his power in order to try and create a new world by merging the Twilight realm with Hyrule and escape his imprisonment in the Twilight realm in the process. He is a highly skilled warrior who can match various incarnations of Link in swordsmanship. However, in games such as the original Legend of Zelda his intelligence has devolved to below-average levels, although he can still organize and command an army of monsters)

Below Average (Due to the ritual to resurrect him being botched, he came back in an incomplete state barely able to form sentences, but he still retains some knowledge on his magic and fighting skills) | Genius | Genius (Even more intelligent than before due to his possession of the Triforce of Wisdom, and orchestrated a plan to free himself and his army from the Dark World by creating an avatar of himself to gain the trust of the people of Hyrule and use the 7 Maidens as a sacrifice to break the Wise Men's seal keeping him in the Dark World)

Weaknesses: Base form: He is extremely arrogant and is sometimes blind to any threats to himself, which almost led to his death at the hands of the sages prior to the events of Twilight Princess. His invisibility technique only affects his body while leaving his magic visible and if he gets hit he unwillingly becomes visible again. His intangibility only works if he can sustain his darkness and a significant amount of light will force him to become tangible again, and his illusionary copies will disappear if he takes fatal damage.

Botched Resurrection: Possesses the same weaknesses as before and is highly unintelligent.

Notable Attacks/Techniques:

• Magical Abilities
• Twilight Magic Abilities

• Ganondorf can unleash waves of darkness at his opponents.
• Ganondorf can shoot bolts of energy at his opponent and engage in Dead Mans Volley.
• Ganon can create and absorb a large energy ball before releasing several homing shots.
• Agahnim can pull people into the Dark World with him.
• Ganon can create portals to banish his targets to the gap between dimensions.
• Ganon can create a ring of fireballs that turn into blazing bats that fly towards his opponent.
• Ganon can create a single blazing bat that encircles the surrounding area.
• Ganon can quickly send out a blazing bat towards his opponent.
• Ganon charging forward with his summoned spectral knights.
• Ganon can create white orbs that summon his spectral knights to battle.
• Ganondorf can cast supernatural darkness to make himself invisible and intangible.
• Agahnim can create "real" illusions that will fight alongside him.
• Ganon can warp the surrounding area into a distorted vortex that inverts his opponent's motor functions.

1/13

• Waves of Darkness: Ganon will show off the Triforce of Power before releasing large waves of darkness that stun his opponents and leave them stuck in place. He can also use these waves as an invisible aura around himself that keeps much weaker opponents from physically approaching him.
• Energy Blast/Dead Man's Volley: Ganon charges up energy in his hand before releasing a bolt of energy at his opponent. There are two variations to this attack, one where he simply shoots a single energy bolt and another where he charges a large ball of energy over his head before absorbing it and shooting out several homing shots. If the opponent is able to reflect the attack they will enter a "game" of Dead Mans Volley where Ganon will continuously reflect the attack back until either he or his opponent dodge or fail to reflect the attack.
• Illusionary Doppelgangers: Ganon will create a pair of illusions of himself that possesses his abilities, despite the copies being illusions they can physically damage the damage with their attacks.
• Blazing Bats: Ganon creates a ring of several fireballs around himself that he can expand outwards to attack his opponent, after creating the fireballs he will transform them into flaming bats that will then fly towards his opponent while leaving a trail of fire behind them. He can also quickly send out a single bat if he so chooses without the need of creating several fireballs.
• Inversion Room: Ganon will warp the surrounding area into a distorted blue vortex that reverses his opponent's movements, making up-down and left-right as examples of the effects, disorienting them so he can much more easily attack them as they struggle to coordinate their movements.
• Banishment: Ganon will banish his targets either to the gap between dimensions or into the Dark World, a twisted version of Hyrule that passively transforms any who enter it into a reflection of their heart and mind. The Dark World can also occasionally drive people insane or erase their consciousness if they remain in the realm long enough, and is filled with demons and monsters loyal to Ganon who will attack people on sight (It should be noted the Dark World only exists during the events of A Link to the Past, making BFR to the realm and its effects only applicable to his completed Triforce key)
• Spectral Knights: Ganon will shoot out several ethereal orbs that summon ghosty knights on horses to aid him in combat, and should any of them be destroyed he can continually summon more to replace them.
• Technique of Darkness: Using this technique allows Ganon to cover the surrounding area in supernatural darkness that renders him both invisible and intangible, becoming intangible even to Link who can attack and destroy ghosts. However, this technique has a major drawback in that a sufficient amount of light will negate the effects of the darkness and forcibly render him tangible and visible once again.

• Ganon turning himself into Twilight particles.
• Ganon as a swarm of particles entering Zelda's corpse to possess it.
• Ganon disappearing into the Twilight Realm.
• Ganon reappearing via a Twilight portal and bull-rushing Link and Midna.
• Ganon making use of several portals to disorient Link.

1/5

• Twilight Deconstruction: Can deconstruct himself into twilight particles granting him a form of intangibility and allowing him to enter the body of others to possess them. He can likely also deconstruct other beings and objects much like Midna can, turning them into twilight particles and sending them to another location.
• Twilight Portals: Ganon will enter twilight portals and disappear from his opponent's sight before emerging from another portal in an attempt to take them by surprise and bullrush them. He can also create fake portals before he reappears to disorient his foe.

Note: The Sealed War is the only point in the Mainline series thus far where Ganon was ever stated to being amped by the full Triforce, as no other games in the timeline have any showing or statements of him being amped due to him either not absorbing the full Triforce, or the Triforce being in a completely different location than he is, as such, none of the Links from any of the mainline games would scale to the Completed Triforce Ganon.

Note 2: Ganondorf's final battle from Wind Waker is considered to be an outlier for the sake of profiling. Versions of Ganondorf with the Triforce of Power and further power boosts have been shown to be notably staggered and rendered vulnerable by attacks from the Light Arrow and incredibly damaged by items such as the Master Sword. Ganondorf without the Triforce of Power withstanding multiple light arrow hits and Master Sword hits is inconsistent with his other stronger appearances and has been ignored for scaling purposes.

Note 3: Ganon's Twilight magic abilities and the Sword of Six Sages only apply to him during the events of Twilight Princess, as such if his Triforce of Power key is used in a VS Thread it should be specified if it's his Twilight Princess incarnation or not.
