-'''Link's Adventure''' ({{ja|リンクの冒険|Rinku no Bōken}}, ''Link's Adventure'') is the 18th [[event match]] of the 51 event matches in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. This event takes place as a two-stock match between {{SSBM|Link}} and [[Dark Link]]; Dark Link is given a completely black sub-color and he lacks any voice samples, but otherwise, he behaves identically to Link. His character icon is dark, indicating he is an all-black character.
+'''Link's Adventure''' is the 18th [[event match]] of the 51 event matches in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''.
-A similar event with the same number appears in ''[[Brawl]]'' under the name [[Dark Link Duel]]. However, rather than using the standard percentage-based damage meter, that battle is fought in [[Stamina mode]]. [[Doppelgänger Duel]] in ''[[Smash 4]]'' is also a similar event to Dark Link Duel except that it consists of {{SSB4|Pit}} and {{SSB4|Dark Pit}} and the player plays the Dark character instead.
+The player controls red {{SSBM|Link}} and must win a 2 [[stock]] match against a CPU [[Dark Link]] on the [[Temple]] stage. This event match features no time limit. Dark Link’s [[artificial intelligence]] is set at Level 8 and is given a completely black sub-color. He lacks any voice samples, but otherwise, he behaves identically to Link. His character icon is dark, indicating he is an all-black character.
-The entirety of the Event Match acts as a reference to the video game ''{{s|zeldawiki|Zelda II: The Adventure of Link}}''. The Japanese name of the match is the same as the Japanese name of the game. Link's red palette swap in the match references the shield spell Link could cast before the climatic fight to reduce damage taken; in the game, it would make his tunic turn red. The match takes place in the [[Temple]] stage; the background music of the stage is a remix of the Temple theme from ''Zelda II''.

[[Doppelgänger Duel]] in ''[[Smash 4]]'' is also a similar event to Dark Link Duel except that it features {{SSB4|Pit}} and {{SSB4|Dark Pit}} and the player controls Dark Pit instead.
+==Names in other languages==
-The description of the Event Match states that Link "has two" dark sides; the significance of this is of debate. Some claim it acts as a reference to the fact that Dark Link's first appearance was in the second ''Zelda'' game, though others claim it references that Dark Link made a second appearance in the Zelda series with ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time]]''. However, it could merely be a reference to the fact that Dark Link has two stocks and must therefore be defeated twice.

 ==Trivia==
-*This event match is the one of the two events where the player's assigned character is in an {{SSBM|Alternate costume}}. The other event is [[Event 27: Cold Armor]].
+*This event match is a reference to the boss battle in ''{{s|zeldawiki|Zelda II: The Adventure of Link}}'' where Link battles Dark Link in the {{s|zeldawiki|Great Palace}}, which the Temple stage is based on.
+**Link's red costume is a reference to the {{iw|zeldawiki|Shield|Magic}} spell used by Link, which would reduce damage taken from the boss battle against Dark Link, which also turns his green tunic red.
+*The description of this event match states that Link has "two" dark sides. The significance behind this state has been claimed that it serves as a reference to Dark Link's debut appearance in the '''second''' ''Zelda'' game, though it has also been claimed that it serves as a reference to Dark Link's second appearance as a miniboss in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time]]''; however, it could merely be a reference to the fact that Dark Link has two stocks and must therefore be defeated twice.
