Ganondorf, The King of Evil is Link's arch-nemesis in most games in The Legend of Zelda™ series. As the embodiment of all evil, Ganondorf seeks to take control of Hyrule. 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.
For information on the fighter for which this amiibo becomes, see Ganondorf (SSBStrife).
All variations of the Ganondorf amiibo are compatible with Super Smash Bros. Strife. Like with Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U, the amiibo becomes a Figure Player (FP) when scanned. While computer-controlled, the amiibo levels up as it fights, learning from its opponents as it does. Unlike in Super Smash Bros. 4, it can be levelled up to level 80 as opposed to 50. The FP collects collectible items during battle, which can be fully obtained by scanning the amiibo in the amiibo menu.
Data from Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U is compatible with Super Smash Bros. Strife. Data from Super Smash Bros. Strife is not compatible with Super Smash Bros. 4, however, due to the higher level cap.
The Ganondorf amiibo, like all other amiibo, is compatible with Hyrule Warriors II. Like the other amiibo based on characters from the The Legend of Zelda series, the first time the amiibo is used, the player is granted an exclusive weapon. In the case of the Ganondorf amiibo, the player unlocks the Bracers weapon for Ganondorf. Subsequent uses of the amiibo will grant a random weapon for Ganondorf, any of the Great Swords, Trident, or the aforementioned Bracers; rated 3 stars or higher.
