Ganon

Ganon is the main villain of the entire Legend of Zelda series. He is usually depicted as a gigantic blue pig, whose weapon of choice appears to be a trident. Ganon was revealed in Ocarina of Time to have once been human, a man who went by the name of Ganondorf. This human persona also appeared in The Wind Waker. He is the holder of the Triforce of Power and is usually nearly successful in his plots for the possession of the other two Triforce pieces.

Misscellaneous Notes

Stained Glass

This is a screenshot of a stained glass window from The Wind Waker. It depicts the sealing of Ganondorf into the Sacred Realm at the end of Ocarina of Time.

Ganon has faild to appear in only three games: Majora's Mask, Four Swords, and The Minish Cap.

Ganon's weapon of choice appears to be the trident, but in Ocarina of Time he wields dual swords, and in the original Legend of Zelda he uses no weapon and only attacks through magical fireballs.

Due to a mistranslation, Ganon's name was written GANNON in the original Legend of Zelda. This has led to a myriad of misspellings and fans often use the term GANNON-BANNED to point out such misspellings, as well as other misinterpretations of the series.
