Ganondorf's moveset is mostly copied from [[Captain Falcon]]'s, the only character in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' to share moves with a character from another series. Compared to Falcon, Ganondorf is slower, stronger, larger, and heavier, meaning he is less mobile and attacks more slowly, but makes up for that with his greater attacking power and weight, making him harder to KO horizontally (though Falcon's faster fall speed makes him harder to KO vertically), and his added size, while making him easier to hit, also gives his attacks greater range. His standard special move is the [[#Warlock Punch|Warlock Punch]], his side special is the [[#Gerudo Dragon|Gerudo Dragon]], his up special is the [[#Dark Dive|Dark Dive]], and his down special is the [[#Wizard's Foot|Wizard's Foot]]. Ganondorf also possesses the strongest [[meteor smash]] move (his down aerial attack), and his up strong attack, despite being slow in execution, is stronger than most smash attacks. Ganondorf's attacks also deal dark damage, as opposed to the fire of Captain Falcon's attacks.
Though his official artwork portrays him with a sword, Ganondorf only uses the sword in a victory pose when he wins a match in one of the Melee modes. He is voiced by [[Takashi Nagasako]], his voice actor in ''The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time'' and ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker]]'', using voice clips taken from ''Ocarina of Time''. As a possible [[Easter egg]], the eyes of all of his trophies glow red when the background is turned dark.

Ganondorf again appears as an unlockable playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. He can be unlocked by clearing Classic mode with [[Link]] or [[Zelda]] on hard difficulty, playing 200 Brawl matches, or having Ganondorf join the party in The Subspace Emissary, which can be done by finding Link and Zelda during the stage "Subspace (Part II)"; using the former two methods, he must be defeated on [[Final Destination]] afterward to be unlocked. His appearance in this game is based on his appearance in ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess]]''. He is also voiced by his voice actor from ''Twilight Princess'', [[Wikipedia:Hironori Miyata|Hironori Miyata]], using voice clips from said game. In The Subspace Emissary, not counting the [[False Character]]s, Ganondorf is the only playable villain character who is never fought.
Ganondorf, along with [[Falco Lombardi|Falco]], is one of the only "clone" characters from ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' to return as playable characters in this game. Ganondorf is still a hard-hitting character in this game, but he is much more sluggish in movement. Also, some of his attacks are weaker than they were in ''Melee''. In addition, some of his moves have been altered or completely changed to make him a more unique character. His side special move has been replaced with the [[#Flame Choke|Flame Choke]], in which Ganondorf charges forward, grabs the opponent and chokes them, slamming them into the ground. His [[Final Smash]], [[#Beast Ganon|Beast Ganon]], involves him transforming into his [[Ganon]] form from ''The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess'' and charging at enemies.

[[File:SubspaceIntro-Ganondorf.png|thumb|Ganondorf's snapshot in The Subspace Emissary]]
In The Subspace Emissary's storyline, Ganondorf is the true commander of the [[Subspace Army]], though [[Bowser]] believes he is. He is working for [[Master Hand]] to bring the world into Subspace, though he plots to betray him and seize his power. He gathers several other villains such as [[Wario]], [[Ridley]], and [[Porky]]. Bowser acts as his second in command, while Ganondorf works behind the scenes. Wario, however, chooses to act independently (until he was turned into a trophy and sucked into [[Subspace (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|Subspace]]). When many of the heroes infiltrate [[
Soon after that explosion, some of the game's heroes emerge from the explosion riding in ships belonging to [[Captain Olimar]], [[Samus]], [[Captain Falcon]], and [[Fox McCloud]], all in their own ships. They all shoot at the Subspace Gunship, but the gunship is too powerful for them to destroy. Ganondorf attempts to destroy all the ships, but before he can do so, [[Kirby]] arrives, riding on [[Dragoon]]. He flies straight through the gunship's cannon, causing it to explode. The rest of the heroes keep firing at the Subspace Gunship, causing it to burst into flames, several parts exploding as well. However, shortly before the gunship is completely destroyed, Bowser and Ganondorf retreat into Subspace.
Afterward, the two travel to Master Hand. However, Ganondorf then betrays Bowser, using the only remaining [[Dark Cannon]] to reduce him to a trophy. Master Hand himself is seen to be controlled by [[Tabuu]], the embodiment of Subspace. Ganondorf, surprised at this revelation, leaps to attack him, only to be turned into a trophy himself. When Bowser is revived by [[King Dedede]], he furiously attacks Ganondorf's trophy in vengeance. [[Link]] and [[Zelda]] come across the trophy and revive him, forming a temporary alliance as all the characters prepare for the final battle against Tabuu. He initially

'''Warlock Punch''' is Ganondorf's standard special move. The move is similar to [[Captain Falcon]]'s [[Captain Falcon#Falcon Punch|Falcon Punch]], with Ganondorf charging up dark energy and unleashing it as a punch. Compared to the Falcon Punch, the Warlock Punch is more powerful, dealing more damage and knockback, but takes longer to execute. Also, like the Falcon Punch, the move is more powerful when used in the air.
Starting with ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', Ganondorf can turn around while charging the attack, which deals increased damage, but is also slower than the normal Warlock Punch. In addition, in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' / ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U|Wii U]]'', Ganondorf is given "super armor" while using the Warlock Punch, meaning that attacking him during execution
In ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'', this move receives two custom variants:
