Here's one I wasn't expecting to do when I was first making my notes but then rose back to my consideration in the blog writing process. Beast Ganon is commonly the bestial form taken by Ganondorf during many of the 3D game final battles, heavily influenced by the Ganon of most 2D games, but having a generally more animalistic concept to him. His core design will likely pull from Ocarina, Twilight, and Hyrule Warriors.

Across his two major battles we'll be covering today, we see this form carry around two giant swords and swing them around haphazardly, create a barrier of fire to keep Zelda out and Link in, charge like a raging bull, teleport around, and body slam with his enormous bulk. Not the biggest pool, but big enough.

Here's the moveset I came up with:


Standard B: Raging Beast

He will swing his two swords around himself haphazardly, dealing heavy blows in several directions around him.


Side B: Bestial Charge

He will slam the ground and charge forward like a rampaging boar, slamming into anyone who gets in his way.


Up B: Teleport

He will rush forward into a portal, re-emerging from another portal several feet upward in the air.


Down B: Barrier of Flame

He will roar and a square of fire will appear directly around him, burning any who contacts it and protecting him from harm.


Final Smash: King of Demons

Since his size has always been his biggest threat, he will expand up to probably around Calamity Ganon's final form's size and attack in one vicious volley, devastating anyone within the scope of the entire stage.


Entrance: He will start as Ganondorf before starting to glow and transforming.


Taunts: Up, he will throw his head back and screech in anger. Side, he will swing around his swords for a second. Down, he will paw the ground as if ready to charge.


Thanks for reading! Next up, the Great Calamity itself.
