Who's Toon Ganondorf?

Toon Ganondorf is the representation of Ganondorf from the Wind Waker. He is unique for wielding two swords.
Boss battle clip is featured below.
Since the Zelda series have various incarnations of key characters, it is necessary to label what kind based on art style. We do have Link, Zelda, and Ganondorf, but they represent a more mainstream aesthetic (OoT and Twilight Princess). Since the Wind Waker has cell-shaded art and more exaggerated bodies, the incarnations are given a sub-title Toon, like Toon Link.
Fighting Style
With Toon Ganondorf wielding two swords along with some martial arts, he has potential to stand out as a unique fighter by fleshing out moveset ideas. However, to stand out further from Ganondorf, which happens to have movesets derived from Captain Falcon, but slower and stronger, he will have to be slightly lighter and more agile, while still having archetypes of a typical villain of well-timed attacks with faster falling.
Why should Toon Ganondorf be added?
Need more Villains
In SSB4, only one new villain was added to the roster, despite that voting is happening now until October 3rd. With only 4 villains (Bowser, Bowser jr., Ganondorf, and Wolf), the anti-hero (Wario), and two villain/hero types (Dedede and Mewtwo), the roster needs new ones to potentially enjoy an all-out battle of the villains.
Diversify Dual-wield characters
Previously, Pit in Brawl was the only character that does dual-wield by switching between Bow and blades. With the inclusion of Dark Pit and that both Pits expanded their arsenal, there is not yet a character that uses only two weapons at once.
Expand Zelda Roster
The Zelda Roster has not been updated since Brawl with Toon Link, yet there are plenty of other characters that deserve to be in Smash, including Toon Ganondorf. If more are added, then the Zelda roster can catch up to Mario series's roster size.
Do what you can to bring in the legendary villain!
