I think it said Bellum caused him to become human. He turned back into a whale after Link defeated Bellum.
Because after MM, Link begins to fear Ganondorf's reign over Hyrule, so he sets to sea, through the Great Bay, to return to Hyrule. In LoZ, he is washed up on shore and continues his journey north to find Ganon. In LoZ2 he finally reaches Ganon and defeats him. After that, he is banished because he is not in FS, then in LttP, he makes his return.
Four Swords could possibly be its own timeline, along with the Minish Cap and FS advemtures.
Wait what what do you mean banished twice?
He couldn't be banished. Mostly becuase Link killed Ganon at the end of LttP. You also have to remember there were numerous attempts to revive Ganon. Also every 100 years a Gerudo Male is born. And most of the time this guy is Ganondorf reborn.
Please watch the Wind Waker Intro. It mentions that Ganondorf broke out of his imprisonment. So the Gods flooded Hyrule to stop him.
Interesting to note in Wind Waker's intro.
Here is Link defeating Ganon. As you can see he's wielding the master Sword.
Here you can see Link going away from Hyrule, with a different looking sword. This sword looks alot like the Kokiri Sword.
Wait a minute. The Wind Waker intro both tells the ending of the two differnt paths of Link. Is it possible that the Hyilians of the Adult Time line created the Majora Mask legend from rumors of a another land named Termina, while in a cruel twist of fate, it actualy happens in the Child time line? It mentions that the Hyilians in the Wind Waker Intro mention they were waiting for the hero of time. It never mentions that he went BACK in the time. They must of thought he went to Termina, while in crazy reality, he does in the Child Time Line.
Also another interesting thing to note. The last scene of Link in Twilight Princess.
Really looks fimiliar to the above intro scene doesn't it? Really odd that both the Kokiri sword and the Ordon Sword, have similar designs.
Link has very elaborate dreams...
Ocarina of Time started with him dreaming about future events of Ganondorf taking over Hyrule. Yet the Deku Tree later explains that Ganondorf had been supplanting dark thoughts into people's dreams.
I find characters that are completely insane to be the most interesting.
Is this confirmed as fact anywhere? I mean the part about LoZ following MM, with AoL following that. Because it doesn't really make sense. After MM, Hyrule has not had need of the sages yet until Ganon commits that crime the creators mentioned, and they banish him. But in AoL, which by your theory would happen within a few years of OoT, the towns all are named after the sages. Why would this have happened? AoL must therefore be in the adult timeline. Hyrule also looks dramatically different in LoZ and AoL, so if maps count for anything, then some significant time must have passed. Also, I was under the impression that Link defeats Ganon in LoZ, and that AoL is partially based on evil forces trying to resurrect Ganon from the ashes or something.
Exactly my point. Link dreams for a reason. Or at least each time Nintendo sees it useful.
You know, a world where the towns are named after sages would have to take place in a timeline where the sages the towns were named after became somewhat known. It actually strike me as kinda odd that it would take place after WW in the WW timeline, seeing as almost all recollection of Hyrule was erased.

Ive noticed this mentioned incorrectly a couple of times now, so ill go ahead and correct it. Link's Awakening takes place inside the Wind Fish's Dream. As you complete the game, you end the game in the same place the game begun: laying on some driftwood at sea.
im just being forgetful, apparently.....What? Again, you are simply quoting the IGN timeline which, and as we have stated quite a few times now - is officially wrong, meaning Miyamoto and Aonuma's words have debunked it. Also, Link never reaches Ganon in LoZ2 (AoL), as he is never looking for him. Ganon is never encountered in that game, only appearing in the Game Over screen.
Ganon has only been seen being banished once, in Twilight Princess. But, this event took place far before TP did, most likely while Link was in Termina during the events of Majora's Mask. Yeah, Ganon has never died by the Master Sword, because it is the "Sword of Evil's Bane", meaning it is used to banish evil from the world of light, not necessarily kill. However, when Ganondorf lost the Triforce of Power in Twilight Princess and Wind Waker, I believe he actually died, only to be reborn in his pig form later on in the subsequent games (ALttP, LoZ, etc).
Exactly, who knows? None of us do. However, how did Link get to the section of the Lost Woods seen in the intro to MM, as they were significantly different than those depicted in OoT? This is definitely a longshot, but you know that beta forest made for TP? It sure looks a lot like the section of the Lost Woods seen in the MM intro, whereas those played in both OoT and TP (Sacred Grove) resemble one another. What it all boils down to is that Link is riding away into the forest, perhaps back to Ordon, or perhaps away from Hyrule to look for Midna, just as he left Hyrule to look for Navi, and this may further be attributed to the fact that Midna said that they would meet again one day, and so Link leaves to find this way.
You do realize you just provided a basis for saying Majora's mask occured after TP, right?
Yes, I even pointed out that Gohdan the Arbiter is a boss in WW's tower of the gods. It makes me wonder why the TP location is almost named after a boss only found in WW.
Hehe, yeah, I did realize that. The only problems would be Link's age really. Introducing the Fused Shadow in Twilight Princess, and hypothetically following TP with MM would make parallel Majora's Mask to the Fused Shadow, which would establish a counterpart-connection that OoT lacked. Also, the fact that Link sets the Master Sword back in its pedestal at the end of TP allows for Link to not have it if MM were to follow. Also, Link did meet a Skull Kid in TP whose face already resembles The Moon from Majora's Mask, so he could very well take the place of the Skull Kid encountered in MM, as both met Link in Hyrule. Wow, MM really could easily follow TP, and in some ways, better than it could OoT (although the absence of the Deku Scrubs and Gerudo could potentially be a big problem).
Wow, I never realized that. They both have that Roman Colosseum architecture going on. What I recently realized is that despite not having a conventional Water Temple in WW, The Tower of the Gods was a water temple. That was another great thing about WW, the irregularity of the dungeons (fire dungeon first!?)
Well of course it's a direct sequel to OoT. There's absolutely nothing denying that
Man, did my TP-MM post have that much of a timeline-changing impact? I've always been 100% sure that it is a sequel to OoT (and thanks for reminding me of the Ocarina of Time -- that's the absolute biggest factor as to why MM could not hypothetically follow TP). Anyways, moving on from this touchy subject.
Well technically, it was Forsaken Fortress first.
The Great Sea isn't identical to OoT's Hyrule layout, nor TP's. I actually think that the Tower of the Gods is supposed to be based directly over the Temple of Time, and perhaps its design carried on into the development of the Arbiter's Grounds. They didn't do a great job with lining up the Great Sea with Hyrule, so it's debatable.
Cool, thanks!
So would I, as well as a number of other Zelda characters (Impa, Majora, Fierce Deity, etc, etc). However, this was made in response to Twilight Princess alone, using the high-res 3D renders I found for the sake of unity. Plus, no Zelda Smash Bros could be made without Tingle
For me personally, it would have to be one of the twilight princess artifacts. Either the twilit mirror or that weird embodiment of twilight magic Zant used on Link, or maybe even the fused shadows. Only because they're awesome, and Twilight Princess is by far my favorite game in the series.
I'm debating between either The Fused Shadow or Majora's Mask. I still see them as one in the same, being potential Hyrulean-Terminian counterparts.
Obviously, the most important to the series itself is the Master Sword. Though, it isn't my favorite.
What about the Triforce?
If you'll notice, Midna's Imp form appears [although faded] behind her. Plus, who's to say that Link doesn't transform? I wasn't going to include the two as separate characters, because they aren't.
Really? I would sacrifice his arrows in a second. But then again, that's why I don't main Link.
I used to 2nd link, and Links arrows are teh pwn. never give them up. If Link is going to switch, it needs to be like ZSS- how epic of a Final Smash can you think of for wolf link?
I'm thinking of WW's command melody, aren't I?
