Puppet Ganon is a Boss of Ganon's Tower, the last dungeon in The Wind Waker. It is fought just before the final clash against Ganondorf. This colossal marionette proves to be quite the challenge before the last boss is encountered in the game. When Link fights Puppet Ganon the battle shifts through three phases, each one with this monstrosity taking on a new form.
Before the battle begins, a scene will play where Link and Ganondorf discuss Zelda's dreams. Ganondorf comments about how what the King had said was all ridiculous, and instead that it was their gods who destroyed them. Ganondorf also states that he was waiting for Link to arrive, whom he tells to not betray his expectations. Ganondorf begins to deform until the curtains reveal that standing before Link now was none other than Puppet Ganon.
Strategy
First Phase: Puppet Form
For each of the three phases of Puppet Ganon, Link will need to use Light Arrows to hit the ball located on their tails. For the first phase, Link can pull out the Boomerang and use it to cut some of the puppet's strings. Most importantly, Link will want to cut the one holding up the puppet's tail. Each string takes a couple of hits to take down, so make sure to target each a couple of times in order to knock them down. The other strings attached to Puppet Ganon's arms may get in the way of aptly using the Boomerang, so be patient throughout this process. Once the tail is down, Link must target the crystal orb on the tail with a light arrow. After a successful shot to the orb, the puppet will fly upwards, and will be completely stringed once again. The process will need to be repeated a two more times before this phase is finished. After the Puppet Ganon fight is finished, the puppet will rise to the top of the room and then returns to the ground in the second phase as a spider.
Puppet Ganon has a few means of attacking Link. First, Puppet Ganon has a remarkable reach and can punch Link no matter the distance they are from each other. Puppet Ganon will also release some Keese to distract Link while he is trying to attack its tail. Midway through the fight, Puppet Ganon can also return to the top of the room and reattach the currently severed threads, restarting some of the fight over.

Second Phase: Spider Form
Now taking on the shape of a spider, Puppet Ganon rises above the battle field and Link must now use the water on the ground to see where the large puppet is going to land, as Puppet Ganon's reflection is clearly visible and the last thing the young hero wants is to get landed on. With Puppet Ganon spinning rapidly above him, Link seeks out the spaces between the large puppets long legs and avoids getting landed on; after this he quickly locates the crystal orb located on Puppet Ganon's backside and shot it with a Light Arrow. After the young hero successfully does this two more times Puppet Ganon once again writhes in, and then with a puff of smoke it soon returns to the battle field once again, this time around taking on a new snake like form.
Third Phase: Moldrom Form
Now taking on the shape of a snake, Puppet Ganon quickly slides around the room now, and Link really needs to watch himself or else the puppet will quickly knock the young hero around all over the place. The most difficult of the three forms, due to it's speed, unpredictability, and it's ability to run Link over, it must be fought with extreme caution. With sword in hand, Link cautiously approaches the hyperactive puppet and gives it a good whack on the head, and in response Puppet Ganon is stopped in its tracks giving the young hero an opportunity to hit the crystal orb on the tip of its tail with a Light Arrow. After Link successfully does this two more times, Puppet Ganon writhes in pain for a third time and ultimately blows up for good, and the young hero is able to move on to face Ganondorf. Other methods Link could use to temporarily distract or stun Puppet Ganon include throwing out some All-Purpose Bait, using a nicely placed Bomb, using his Skull Hammer to hit the puppets head as opposed to his Master Sword, or through sticking to the walls and attempting to shoot the orb on the puppet's tail while it moves around.
