'''Toon Link''' is a swordsman who saved the Great Sea from [[Ganondorf]] after the flooding of Hyrule. His appearance, attacks, and personality are a mirror of the incarnation of [[Link]]. Toon Link's name refers to the "[[wikipedia:cel-shaded animation|toon-shading]]" animation technique used in both of the video games that he starred in: ''[[wikipedia:The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker]]'' and ''[[wikipedia:The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass|The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass]]''.To unlock him,you can play 400 V.S matches.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', Toon Link is a secret playable character.  His statistics and move set are based off of [[Young Link]] from ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''.  Link and Toon Link are very similar characters in the game, having almost the same move set in and the same [[Final Smash]]. In ''[[WarioWare: Smooth Moves]]'', in one mini-game, Toon Link is using his Deku Leaf to land on an island. This game uses the form "mohawk".
 
==Toon Link's Special Moves==
 
===Hero's Bow===
[[Image:Toon_Link_Bow.jpg|180px|thumb|left|'''Hero's Bow''']]
 
The '''Hero's Bow''' is Toon Link's and [[Link|Link's]] standard special move in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''.  Bow can be used by [[Kirby]] as well, but only if he sucks up Link or Toon Link's powers.
 
Once done, Toon Link will pull a bow and arrow out of nowhere, and start aiming. The attack can be charged up by holding the button. It will not increase the power of the move, but the arrow will be able to go farther if the move is charged. The attack can be done in mid-air as well, but it is harder to control the firing.
<br clear=all>
===Boomerang===
[[Image:ToonBoomerang.jpg|180px|thumb|'''Boomerang''']]
 
'''Boomerang''' is a side special move used by Toon Link in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. It is also [[Link|Link's]] and [[Young Link|Young Link's]] Side B move in ''Melee''. Link's Boomerang gets replaced by the [[Link#Gale Boomerang|Gale Boomerang]] in ''Brawl'' however.
 
Once the move is executed, Link, Young Link or Toon Link will throw a Boomerang sideways, which will hit a nearby opponent and then hit them again on the way back. The attack can also be moved slightly upwards and downwards. There are a few differences between Link's, Young Link's and Toon Link's versions of the attack. Link's can be thrown farther and does more damage, but lacks control. Young Link's cannot go as far as his adult counterpart's attack, nor can it do as much damage. However, Young Link is able to control it better, being able to tilt it up or down easier than Link. The difference between Link and Toon Link's attacks in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' are the same as Link and Young Link's differences from ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', with the added effect that Toon Link's Boomerang doesn't wrap opponents up in a small twister.
 
===Spin Attack===
[[Image:Toon_Link_Spin_Attack.jpg|180px|thumb|left|'''Spin Attack''']]
 
'''Spin Attack''' is an attack that can be used by [[Link]], [[Young Link]] and Toon Link in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]]. It is their Up Special Move.
 
Toon Link will spin around with his sword held out, severely damaging anyone who gets hit. The attack can also be used while jumping, acting as Toon Link's third jump. When an opponent is hit by Toon Link's ground attack, the attack will last longer.  The move can be charged up for a stronger hit.
<br clear=all>
===Bomb===
[[Image:ToonBombHold.jpg|180px|thumb|'''Bomb''']]
 
'''Bomb''' is [[Link|Link's]], Toon Link's and [[Young Link|Young Link's]] Down Special Move. They will pull out a Bomb with its fuse lit. They hold the Bomb until it is thrown. Once thrown, the Bomb will either stay at the spot it was thrown to and explode a few moments later, or it will explode on impact. The former is more common in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' However, the Bomb will explode even if Link, Toon Link or Young Link are holding it. Additionally, the two will be unable to pick up items while holding the Bomb. Young Link and Toon Link can not throw their Bombs as far, and it does not do as much damage, but he is able to run away from the explosion quicker. Toon Link's blast radius, however, is twice as big as Link's blast radius, and the Bomb's are harder to see. When using this bomb however, the player must be careful not to get caught in the blast.
 
Although the Bombs do decent damage, their knockback is minor compared to the [[Bob-omb]] item.
 
===Final Smash: Triforce Slash===
{{LLquote|Is he using the Triforce to slash enemies? Or is it the Triforce doing the slashing? You don’t have time to ponder such questions, as Link has just grabbed a Smash Ball.|[[Masahiro Sakurai]]|[http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/characters/link.html#3rd Smash Bros. DOJO!!]}}
[[Image:ToonTriforceSlash.jpg|180px|thumb|left|'''Triforce Slash''']]
 
The '''Triforce Slash''' is [[Link|Link's]] and Toon Link's [[Final Smash]] move in the game ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. Once the [[Smash Ball]] is collected, the Triforce on Link's hand starts to glow. He will then use a Triforce to trap another player. He will then slash away furiously, severely injuring the player. The final blow is the strongest, and has a high chance of KO'ing an opponent. However, an opponent can survive, if he/she is lucky enough to land on solid ground. This attack is easily done in midair as well. Toon Link's Final Smash is a slightly modified version of this move, as well.
====Attack Origin====
In ''The Legend of Zelda'' series, every Link gets a Triforce on the back of his left hand, except for in the [[Wii]] version of ''[[Wikipedia:The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess]]'' where he has it on the back of his right hand. Sakurai mentions that for this Final Smash, Link releases the Triforce he has in his hand and traps his opponents inside of it. This move hasn't been seen in any Zelda game, however Puppet Zelda in ''Twilight Princess'' used the Triforce as an attack similar to this.
====Differences====
*When Link hits with the Master Sword, it makes a slash sound, but when Toon Link swipes with his sword, it makes a 'slosh' sound.
*Link can shoot from far away, and the Triforce will make contact, but with Toon Link, the player has to be right next to him.
*The Triforce does not hurt foes when they are in the Triforce Slash target's launching range when Link fires, but when Toon Link fires, it does 10% damage.
*Toon Link's triforce is smaller in appearance.
*Link's Triforce is a light gold, while Toon Link's is a bit darker.

== Role in the [[Subspace Emissary]] ==
[[Image:0181465001201628972.jpg|thumb|left|Toon Link's snapshot in The Subspace Emissary.]]
After beating The Subspace Emissary, in the forest stage, if the [[player]] enters the first red door in the beginning of the level, he or she will be taken to the [[Pirate Ship (SSBB)|Pirate Ship]]. There, Toon Link will be looking out to the sea. However, once he sees the player, he's surprised. Thinking the player is an enemy, he attacks the player. The player then fights Toon Link, and if the player beats Toon Link and turns him into a [[trophy]].

===[[Solid Snake]] Codec conversation===
 
*'''Snake''': Mei Ling, who is this kid with the cat eyes...?
*'''Mei Ling''': Oh, they call him Toon Link. Doesn't he look familiar?
*'''Snake''': Yeah, he looks just like Link.
*'''Mei Ling''': But you know there've been several people who've gone by that name, right? They all have certain things in common--green clothes, a sword, a shield... But they all came from different lands and lived in different eras. And yet the spirit of the hero of the Triforce is timeless. It's an essence that transcends history.
*'''Snake''': I think I can relate to that.
*'''Mei Ling''': Huh? What do you mean?
*'''Snake''': There's been more than one "Snake," too, you know...
 
==Trivia==
*Toon Link appears on a badge in ''[[Donkey Konga 2]]''.
