Ganondorf (SSB. Amplified)

Ganondorf is an unlockable character in Super Smash Bros. Amplified from the Legend of Zelda franchise. He is no longer a clone.
==​Moveset==
Ganondorf may not be a clone, but his playstyle remains the same. He is slow, powerful, and calculating. He is prone to getting hit with combos due to slow attacks overall. He still packs power in spite of a new moveset.

==Trophy Info==
===Ganondorf:===
Dubbed the "King of Evil," Ganondorf spreads nothing but more evil to gain more power in Hyrule. He is a reincarnation of Demise and his hatred for the Hero and the Goddess, Hylia. Possessing the Triforce of Power, he poses a huge threat to Hyrule. In Smash, that power and cunning shows through here. It is up to the Hero of Hyrule stop his villainy from destroying the peace of Hyrule.  
===​Ganondorf (Alt):===
Ganondorf's Dead Man's Volley is slow, but powerful so watch out if it gets deflected. The charged variant splits into smaller one, but those are also deflectable. The Deflecting Arm deals with projectiles uniquely, sending projectiles away if the hand doesn't hit the projectile. Hitting the projectile with hand sends it back. Levitation is a good recovery with some control, but leaves him wide open while it happens. Ground Punch creates shock waves, but the air based ones are weaker.
===Beast Ganon:===
Ganondorf shows his vile use of the Triforce of Power and transforms into a pig-like beast. He stomps once burying, any foe, and gallops off the screen taking anyone he contacts. He is, however, easy to dodge. He is actually slower and slightly smaller than previous entries, but his power is still there.
