Skull Kid
|
Skull Kids (スタルキッド, Stal Kid) are recurring characters in The Legend of Zelda series. They appear in Super Smash Bros. Brawl as stickers. The one from The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask appears in Super Smash Bros. 4, wearing the titular mask, as an Assist Trophy. ContentsOrigin[edit]Skull Kids first appeared in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time as minor characters, but one returns (specifically, the one who befriends Link once he plays Saria's Song to him) in Majora's Mask as the main antagonist in the game under the control of Majora's Mask. This Skull Kid is the basis for Super Smash Bros. 4's Assist Trophy. A Skull Kid (thought to be the same one as he knows Saria's Song) also appears as a minor character in The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess as a miniboss. The Skull Kid's attack as an Assist Trophy is not based on any known ability of Majora's Mask itself, although Skull Kid has been seen using the power of the mask to curse people for his own amusement. Two of his attacks, however, have a mechanic that makes reference to the Stone Tower and its respective temple, which must be inverted for Link to progress. In Super Smash Bros. Melee[edit]Skull Kid himself did not appear, but he was mentioned in the description of the Four Giants trophy and the Majora's Mask trophy. In Super Smash Bros. Brawl[edit]Skull Kids appear on two stickers in Brawl. Stickers[edit]
In Super Smash Bros. 4[edit]As an Assist Trophy[edit]The Skull Kid from The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask appears in Super Smash Bros. 4 as an Assist Trophy. As one of the Tips mentions, Skull Kid is one of the only Assist Trophies to have potentially detrimental effects to both enemies and the user. When he appears, he can do one of three things, chosen at random:
Trophy[edit]![]() Skull Kid's trophy in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS ![]() Skull Kid's trophy in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U
In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate[edit]As an Assist Trophy[edit]Skull Kid once again returns as an Assist Trophy from Super Smash Bros. 4. Training Mode describes his Assist Trophy: Does disruptive things like turning the stage upside down or making fighters invisible. Can't be KO'd. When playing on the Spear Pillar stage, Skull Kid cannot be summoned which is likely due to Palkia which can affect the screen most likely similar to what Skull Kid usually does as an Assist Trophy. Along with Spear Pillar, Skull Kid cannot be summoned on 3D Land, Arena Ferox, Dream Land, Hyrule Castle, Jungle Japes, Magicant, Mario Circuit, Midgar, Peach's Castle, Reset Bomb Forest, Skyloft, Super Mario Maker, Tortimer Island, Umbra Clock Tower, and WarioWare, Inc. As a costume[edit]![]() A Mii Brawler dressed as the Skull Kid. Skull Kid serves as the basis for the Skull Kid's Hat Headgear and the Skull Kid's Outfit for the Mii Brawler. Spirit[edit]Skull Kid also appears as two different primary spirits. In Adventure Mode: World of Light, Skull Kid is presumably one of the countless spirits captured by Galeem during his takeover of the universe. After Galeem's defeat, Dharkon takes control of Galeem's spirits, including Skull Kid. Skull Kid's spirit is located in the Sacred Land sub-dungeon of The Dark Realm. Skull Kid's Spirit Battle uses a Mii Brawler puppet fighter wearing a Skull Kid's Hat and Outfit and can be fought on the Distant Planet stage. He is fought along two Tiny Meta Knight puppet fighters representing Skull Kid's fairy companions, Tatl and Tael. During the battle, Skull Kid appears as a hostile Assist Trophy while the stage is covered in fog, referencing the fog of the Lost Woods where the Skull Kid resides. Skull Kid & Majora's Mask can be obtained by enhancing the Skull Kid spirit at level 99. Gallery[edit]Names in other languages[edit]Trivia[edit]
