Template:SSB Infobox Princess Zelda is the princess of the far away land known as Hyrule. Along with the hero Link, Zelda protects her kingdom and the sacred Triforce from the evil Ganondorf. Zelda has an alter-ego called Sheik. Princess Zelda usually plays the role of Princess Peach in the Legend of Zelda series.

Super Smash Bros. Series

Princess Zelda as she appears in Super Smash Bros. Melee.

Zelda is one of the newcomers introduced in Super Smash Bros. Melee. She is a default character. Most of her attacks don't do much damage, and the attacks that do a lot damage can be difficult to control. The strongest of these is the Lightning Kick, which can only be done midair. She is slow and light, and thus easy to kick off the screen. She can use her Transform ability to turn herself into Sheik, which gives her a broad range of different attacks suitable for different cases.

Zelda will return for Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Her design is now based completely off of her The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess appearance. She will still use a moveset with magic abilities. The Lightning Kick has been seen. In trailer movies, she is seen using a move similar to Din's Fire, but with a remarkably bigger fire sphere, and Farore's Wind. In a different trailer, she was praying, with the result that she, or Link, who was standing nearby, was charged up. This may be related to the charge move that was confirmed for the adventure mode, and thus only be available there. Sheik has not yet been confirmed.

Zelda transformed into a trophy by Wario.

In The Subspace Emissary, Zelda was watching Mario and Kirby fighting together with Peach, and ran down to assist them after the arrival of the Primids. However, she is soon captured by Petey Piranha and put into a cage along with Peach. Kirby, who battles Petey Piranha, has the choice to rescue either Peach or Zelda. When Zelda is rescued, she forms a team with Kirby for the story. When she is not rescued, Wario appears and uses a strange gun to transform her into a trophy and run off with her; it is presumed he escaped the explosion of the stadium.

In Super Smash Bros. Melee, the female Fighting Wire Frames are modelled after Zelda and have her basic moveset. Interestingly, when Kirby uses Swallow on Zelda, he will wear Young Zelda's wimple. This is odd, as Young Zelda does not appear in Melee. Zelda was voiced by Jun Mizusawa in both Japanese and English.

Trophy Information from Super Smash Bros. Melee

Classic

The crown princess of Hyrule. Zelda entrusted Link with the future of Hyrule after a revelation came to her in the world of dreams. She knows much about the Triforce; in fact, the only person who likely knows more about Triforce lore is Ganondorf himself, whom Zelda evaded in Ocarina of Time by transforming into her alter ego, Sheik.

Adventure

Zelda is a bit slow and, because of her light frame, easy to send flying. On the other hand, her magical skills lend her reliable and explosive attack power. Zelda's easier to use if you focus on waiting and countering rather than pressing attacks. She can use Nayru's Love to reflect projectile attacks or as an offensive weapon.

All-Star

Zelda's midair Lightning Kick centers immense magical power in the ball of her foot. If she strikes perfectly, the attack is as strong as can be. If her aim is slightly off, it'll be exceedingly weak. Farore's Wind again utilizes Zelda's magical prowess, this time by transporting her great distances. It's vital to know the lay of the land before using this move.

Trivia

  • All of Zelda's moves in Melee, except for Transform, are actually Link's attacks from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. The reason for this is because in the actual series, Zelda had not shown off her fighting skills, only Sheik did, and she didn't show her fighting abilities until after Super Smash Bros. Melee's release.
  • In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Zelda has an alternate costume which lets her look like in Super Smash Bros. Melee.
  • Zelda appears in Nintendo Monopoly, where she replaced North Carolina Avenue. She costs $200.
