'''Toon Link''' ({{ja|トゥーンリンク}}, ''Tūn Rinku'') is a playable character in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. ~~"Toon Link"~~ is ~~simply a reference name to give distinction between~~ the ~~two Links~~ that appear in ''Brawl'' and to not confuse him with Young Link (again, a reference name). In all actuality, he's simply named Link and comes from a different era and timeline branch than "Twilight" Link does. His moveset appears ~~similar to that of {{SSBM|Young Link}}. His appearance is based on his look~~ in ''{{s|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker}}'' and ''{{s|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass}}''. However, Toon Link looks slightly more realistic in ''Brawl'' than in ''Wind Waker''. This can be seen by comparing his standard trophy and his Outset Link trophy, as his character model in ''Brawl'' is not cel-shaded like that of ''Wind Waker'', ''~~Phantom Hourglass~~'' or ''~~Spirit Tracks~~''.

'''Toon Link''' ({{ja|トゥーンリンク}}, ''Tūn Rinku'') is a playable character in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. His appearance is derived from the Link that appears in ''{{s|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker}}'' and ''{{s|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass}}''. However, Toon Link looks slightly more realistic in ''Brawl'' than in ''The Wind Waker''. This can be seen by comparing his standard trophy and his Outset Link trophy, as his character model in ''Brawl'' is not cel-shaded like that of his model in ''The Wind Waker''. Additionally, "Toon Link" is simply a reference name to give distinction between the [[Link]]s that appear in ''Brawl'' and to not confuse him with his fellow childhood counterpart [[Young Link]] (again, a reference name). In actuality, he is simply named Link and comes from a different era and timeline branch than ''Twilight Princess'' Link does. As a semi-[[clone]] of {{SSBM|Young Link}}, they share a number of similar moves.

Toon Link is currently ranked 13th on the [[tier list]] at the top of the mid-high tier (the highest ranked character of all ''The Legend of Zelda'' characters). Toon Link's biggest asset is his variety of versatile [[projectile]]s, which when combined with his great [[jump]]ing ability and air mobility, gives him one of the strongest [[camp]]ing abilities and makes him one of the most difficult characters to [[approach]]. Toon Link additionally has a strong aerial game, with the aforementioned efficient jumping and aerial mobility, and access to fast, powerful [[aerial attack]]s, in addition to a damaging [[zair]], which is useful for keeping opponents at a distance and setting up subsequent attacks. Toon Link also has two great [[combo]] starters in his [[up tilt]] and [[back aerial]] that can combo into themselves, a far reaching and relatively safe [[recovery]], and strong approaching capabilities from his fast movement speed and projectiles. Toon Link however suffers from substandard [[KO]]ing ability, possessing finishers that aren't that powerful with short reach, or in the case of his [[up smash]], being too predictable while lacking strong enough traits to make up for it. Toon Link additionally possesses short [[reach]] throughout his moveset, and a very punishable [[grab]] that lacks the reach to make up for its high [[ending lag]] (in addition to possessing rather poor [[throw]]s). Toon Link overall has strong [[matchup]]s (with his only {{b|counter|matchup}} being {{SSBB|Meta Knight}}), and has achieved above average [[tournament]] results (which have been especially strong in Meta Knight-banned tournaments).
