==Character description==
[[Category:Assist Trophies]]
Tingle is a short character that resembles a middle-aged, half-sized man dressed in a green suit. Equally as odd or perhaps moreso than that is his personality, primarily his delusional insistence that he is a reincarnation of a fairy. He made his debut in the game ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask]]'' and has become one of the ''Zelda'' series' oddest and most noticeable recurring characters.

==In ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''==
Tingle, having been introduced the previous year in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask]]'', is featured in two cameo roles in ''Melee'' in his first incarnation:
 
===Great Bay===
Tingle appears as a stage element in the [[Great Bay]] stage. Tingle is tied onto a balloon string and is floating over the stage. Tingle's balloon can be used as a platform. If the balloon breaks by either an attack or from standing on it too long, Tingle will struggle in the air then fall to the ground. If a character touches the balloon while it is popping, that character will take little damage. Tingle will blow his balloon up after being on the ground for a few seconds.
 
Tingle can be used like an [[item]] with an [[Action Replay]]. Tingle can only appear on the [[Test]] stage though if an Action Replay is used.
 
===Trophy===
[[Image:Tingle copy.jpg|thumb|150px|right]]
Tingle appears in this game as one of the many trophies that can be randomly collected by typical means, namely through the [[Trophy Lottery]] and the various single player Regular Matches. This is what it reads:
 
:'''Tingle'''
:Tingle is a mysterious middle-aged man who thinks he's "the very reincarnation of a fairy." His bizarre behavior and unique speech are just little pieces of his vibrant personality. Tingle travels by way of a small hot-air balloon, making maps of the lands below him. Pop his balloon, and Tingle will fall to earth to sell his maps. (''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask]]'' 10/00)
 
 
==In ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''==
Tingle makes a few appearance in ''Brawl'', being an assist trophy as his most prominent role. He also appears as a collectible trophy and sticker.
 
===As an Assist Trophy===
Tingle appears as an [[Assist Trophy]] in ''Brawl'', taking his appearence from ''The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker'' and also being the only character to represent the vast ''The Legend of Zelda'' series as an Assist Trophy. Tingle summons random effects while chanting "Tingle! Tingle! Kooloo-limpah!".
 
===List of Effects===
*Plethora of Hammers & Golden Hammers
*Flies away releasing a plethora of balloons, no negative effects.
*Makes the whole ground slippery, resulting in a lot of tripping.
*Zooming in on one character.
*Gives everyone [[Superspicy Curry|Curry]] status.
 
===As a trophy===
''A strange little man easily spotted by his trademark green bodysuit, bright nose, and pointy beard. Tingle has frequently appeared around Hyrule and always lets those he meets know that he's a fairy and selling homemade maps. In a recent adventure, Tingle escapes a sad and dreary life to embark on a magical adventure in the delightful, dreamlike paradise of Rupeeland.''
