<\/figure>\n

The young princess of Hyrule always kept an enigmatic air about herself. Between taking on different identities and\u00a0residing in Ganon’s castle\u00a0until the game’s final confrontation, Zelda always presented herself at a distance. On several occasions, though, she found herself helping Link fight against evil.<\/p>\n

In the Legend of Zelda<\/em><\/a> series, the titular princess surrounds herself with an aura of mystery. She’s proven to be good at hiding secrets. Even among longtime fans of Zelda, players may find new things to discover.<\/p>\n

Please be mindful of the series spoilers below.<\/p>\n

10 <\/span>The Phantom Comes from Spirit Tracks<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

In the Smash Bros<\/em>. series, Zelda gains the Phantom ability. This armor-clad knight comes with a sword and a shield. Charging it will allow him to both strike the enemy and protect Zelda.<\/p>\n

However, Zelda never summoned armor in the series. In fact, she was never an adult\u00a0while using it in her own series. The Phantom Armor comes from the DS games, particularly Spirit Tracks<\/em>, where Toon Zelda, as a spirit, can inhabit the armor and fight while inside of it.<\/p>\n

9 <\/span>Became Link’s Sidekick Once<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Speaking of Spirit Tracks<\/em>, even Zelda once found herself aiding Link throughout his journey. Losing her body to a demon named Malladus, Zelda becomes a roaming, disembodied spirit. As a ghost, however, she aids Link in a way similar to Navi, Tatl, Ezlo, Midna, and Ciela of past titles.<\/p>\n

In Spirit Tracks<\/em>, Zelda not only helps guide Link but also, as mentioned earlier, possesses armor. She’ll help Link fight and solve puzzles throughout dungeons. When she’s not fighting, she’s simply floating with her hero as he rides the tracks across Hyrule!<\/p>\n

8 <\/span>Actually Good in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

In the Smash Bros<\/em>. series, Zelda has a history of being a low-tier<\/a> character. In fact, tier lists on the websites indicate that she’s among the worst characters in each game. This began since her debut in Super Smash Bros. Melee<\/em>\u00a0and carried through over a decade.<\/p>\n

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate<\/em> was the first title where Zelda was made good. Based on her moveset from Super Smash Bros. for Wii U<\/em>, Zelda retains the same moves as before but with massive frame data improvements. As a result, she’s seen results at tournaments<\/a> that were never precedented by this character until now.<\/p>\n

7 <\/span>Wears Pants in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

While nothing is sacred in the world of Smash Bros<\/em>., for some\u00a0players a favorite pastimes is to look up the dresses of Peach, Zelda, Rosalina, and Palutena. This activity originates as far back as Melee<\/em>. Even the developer, Masahiro Sakurai, touched on this action<\/a>.\u00a0However, he noted that detailing their design\u00a0without censorship would raise the CERO rating in Japan.<\/p>\n

As such, underneath Zelda’s dress is a pair of white pants<\/a>. These pair of pants are nearly invisible when fighting but can be seen when tilting the camera properly. Interestingly enough, the only series title where Zelda wears pants is in Breath of the Wild<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

6 <\/span>Kissed Link Twice<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Link got kissed twice when rescuing Princess Zelda. While a kiss from Peach is common in the Super Mario<\/em> series, rarely does it end this way in the Zelda<\/em> series. However, Nintendo decided to throw a curveball for its players twice.<\/p>\n

The first was in Zelda II<\/em>. In the ending, Zelda embraces Link<\/a> just as the curtains fall. The player can see them move closer at the end. The second is in the Oracle<\/a><\/em> series. After playing the complete adventure, via passwords, rescuing Zelda earns the player a kiss which puts Link in a daze.<\/p>\n

5 <\/span>Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Design Comes From Two Zelda Games<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

When revealed in the initial trailer for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate<\/em>, Sakurai mentioned that her design comes from The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds<\/em><\/a>. This was because he saw Breath of the Wild<\/a><\/em>‘s Zelda as more of a researcher. As such, along with Link and Ganondorf, Zelda received a fresh design upon entering Ultimate<\/em>.<\/p>\n

However, Zelda’s design also takes cues from A Link to the Past<\/a>. While it’s a given since A Link Between Worlds<\/em> is a direct sequel to that title, Nintendo made subtle changes to Zelda’s jewelry from the former to the latter title. Sakurai, who takes liberties with character designs such as the Star Fox<\/em> characters, put his own take on the\u00a0Zelda by\u00a0using elements from both games.<\/p>\n

4 <\/span>Competent Fighter of Multiple Weapons<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

In Twilight Princess<\/em><\/a>, Zelda’s official art features her holding a sword. During the scene where Hyrule Castle is invaded by Zant, she appears holding her blade. However, she never gets the chance to use the weapon. However, Hyrule Warriors<\/em> allows Zelda to fight with the sword.<\/p>\n

In addition to the magic spells she wields, she can also summon armor in Smash Bros<\/em>. Furthermore, she’s wielded a bow twice. In both cases, she fired Light Arrows to aid Link in his final fight against Ganondorf.<\/p>\n

3 <\/span>Dress Color Changes Color in the Original NES Title<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

The original Legend of Zelda<\/em>‘s original art depicted the princess wearing a pink dress. However, upon rescuing her, she was not wearing pink. This is likely due to the NES’ color limitations.<\/p>\n

However, Zelda’s color actually changed. This was dependent entirely on what color Link’s tunic was. Wearing the Red Ring or Blue Ring would make her dress Red or Blue, respectively. Zelda gained Green, Red, and Blue color alts in the Smash Bros<\/em>. series.<\/p>\n

2 <\/span>Can Be Attacked During the Final Battle<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

During the final battle in Wind Waker<\/em><\/a>, Zelda aids Link. She’s able to fire Light Arrows at Ganondorf<\/a>. However, it’s entirely possible to attack her.<\/p>\n

For whatever reason, Link can swipe at Zelda during the battle for the fate of Hyrule’s overworld. Attack her enough and she will retaliate. and Zelda will begin to fire arrows at Link instead.<\/p>\n

1 <\/span>A Link to the Past Originated Zelda’s Lullaby<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Zelda’s classic theme became a major feature in Ocarina of Time<\/a><\/em>. It plays when meeting Zelda in Hyrule Castle and is the first song taught to Link on his Fairy Ocarina. Playing Zelda’s Lullaby allows him to solve puzzles and open gateways marked with the Triforce crest.<\/p>\n

While this theme has played in nearly every series title featuring the princess, it originated in the SNES game\u00a0A Link to the Past<\/em>. When rescuing Zelda from Hyrule Castle, the song plays in its entirety. However, when rescuing the maidens, as well as Zelda from Turtle Rock, only the first part of the song plays.<\/p>\n
