The final boss battle with Ganon is finally at hand. After defeating his pawn, Agahnim, Ganon rises up from the lifeless heap and flies off to the Pyramid of Power, where the Triforce lies within.

Ganon starts off simple, he throws his trident around and will randomly teleport to another part of the room. Keep in mind that the trident will continue to fly and will change direction to keep up with Ganon as he moves about.

Once he has taken enough damage he will stop throwing the trident and instead summon a ring of fireballs that morph into birds and fly at Link, breaking the circle.

In the third phase Ganon will begin to take out the flooring at the edges of the room, along with summoning a fire spiral every time he stomps the ground. This will also stun Link, so stay away when the fire spiral comes out.

The fourth and final phase involves careful timing and precision- now that the edges of the arena are unsafe (as falling off will force you to restart the entire battle) Ganon only appears when the torches at the bottom of the screen are lit, but when he is struck by the sword he is stunned for a very short period of time, only the Silver Arrows will damage him at this point. Four arrows will finally do him in.
