Young Link

Young Link is a main character of the Legend of Zelda series. He could almost be considered to be THE main character, as he is actually the younger form of the franchise leader, Link. He is shown to be quite skilled with a short sword, as well as many other weapons.

Mario crossed paths with Young Link in Super Smash Bros. Melee. Here he was an unlockable character. He is shown to have a fighting style similar to Link's, but cannot throw Bombs as far. He can use a variety of weapons, including Arrows, a Boomerang, and a Wooden Shield.
