'''Dark Link''' (also known as '''Shadow Link''' or '''Link's Shadow'''; in Japan, simply as '''Doppelgänger''') is the evil counterpart of the hero of Hyrule, [[Link]]. This shadowy being resembles Link exactly, except for the fact that Dark Link is completely black. Shadow Link is also a master swordsman, just like the original. Unlike other enemies featured in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]], Dark Link does not have a [[trophy]].

==History==

Dark Link has appeared in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' as the opponent of Event Match 18: Link's Adventure. In the battle, the player controls a red-clad Link, who has two [[extra lives]]. The fighter must defeat Shadow Link, who also has two lives. The two swordsmen fought at the [[Temple]], with no time limit. However, any character can become completely black like he is, using an Action Replay cheat.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', Dark Link is one of Link's alternate costumes. This time, he takes his appearance from ''The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess'' where he has more detail and red eyes. Dark Link still appears in an Event, where Link has to fight him once again. This time, they fight in a Stamina match on the [[Bridge of Eldin]], and have 200 [[HP]] each. One of [[Toon Link]]'s alternative costumes is a Dark Toon Link.
