Dark Link: Difference between revisions

There are many ways for Link to defeat Dark Link. Link can use the [[Deku Nut]]s to stun Dark Link and attack with the Megaton Hammer or the Sword. Din's Fire is the most powerful item Link can use against Dark Link, so he should stock up on [[Green Potion]]s. Once Dark Link is defeated, Link is rewarded with the [[Longshot]].

Dark Link has a very minor role in this game. In the second stage of the battle with [[Veran]], she summons 4 Dark Links, and they are far weaker than Link. They move in the opposite direction to the one Link is walking in, much like [[Arm-Mimic]]s. They cannot attack save for bumping into Link, and always drop a heart upon defeat. They serve merely as distractions for Veran, and can be defeated easily.

Dark Link is not fought in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'', but it appears in a cutscene narrated by the [[Light Spirit]], [[Lanayru (Light Spirit)|Lanayru]]. He tells Link the tale of how the [[Twili]] race was banished to the [[Twilight Realm]]. Dark Link is used to represent the [[Dark Interloper]]s in the cutscene. In the cutscene, three Dark Links destroy Link (representing a civilian) with their dark magic, resulting in them getting banished into the Twilight Realm by the Light Spirits.

Dark Link also appears in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks|Spirit Tracks]]'' as the final boss of the mini-game found in [[Castle Town|Hyrule Castle Town]] called [[Take 'Em All On]]. In this game, Dark Link can perform a [[Spin Attack]], throw [[Bomb]]s, and shoot [[arrow]]s. Unfortunately, while in battle with him, Link cannot use any of his items except the Sword. As Link begins to defeat him, he slowly becomes more and more transparent unlike his predecessors. Once defeated, Dark Link will fall on his back and disappear while Link is rewarded with High-value [[Treasure]].
