Ganondorf was originally introduced in the original ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'' game as Ganon. Here, he was established as a power hungry monster who had kidnapped [[Princess Zelda]] for her piece of the Triforce, but was destroyed by Link at the end of the game. Since then, collecting the Triforce and conquering Hyrule has usually been Ganon's main goal in the series. He has appeared or been mentioned in nearly every Zelda game, with some exceptions: ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask]]'', ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass]]''.

Ganon's appearance has changed over the course of the series. In his first appearance, he appears as a monster who's facial features are like that of a pig's and with turquoise skin (though it will change to red at one point, which is the cue to hit him with the Silver Arrow), while in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past]]'', he has blue skin and turns silver when weak to the aforementioned Silver Arrows. In ''Ocarina of Time'', Ganon's skin is dark green and he has yellow eyes (and so far, this and Twilight Princess are the only games to depict Ganon with a tail).  ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess]]'', in a departure from previous games, features a quadrupedal Ganon for the first time, and appears as more of a boar than a pig. This may be to make Ganon similar to Link's "wolf" form.)
