A Darknut (タートナック, Tartnuc) is an enemy type from The Legend of Zelda series.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl

A Darknut appears in Brawl as a trophy using its design from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, and as a sticker using its design from The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. Despite appearing as an enemy in almost every Zelda game, the trophy only references Twilight Princess.

Darknut
A knight enemy clad in heavy armor that defends with a shield and attacks with sword techniques and kicks. Darknuts lose their armor as they take hits, but they grow faster in the process. Their sword skills are quite accomplished. The most fundamental way of dealing with Darknuts is having good command of spin attacks and back slices.

In Super Smash Bros. 4

Darknuts appear as enemies in Smash Run in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS. As in Brawl, they use their design from Twilight Princess. As in Twilight Princess, their armor must be broken off first, after which they can be defeated with continued attacks. Darknuts will attack by swinging their large sword, which does heavy damage and knockback, and their shields are a reflector. Defeating them yields large stat bonuses.

Ntsc These heavily-armored, bulky enemies often seen in the Legend of Zelda series are slow but powerful and can use their swords to block attacks and projectiles. When you're faced with one, you'll need to slowly cut away its armor. Once it's gone, the Darknut will become more agile, but it'll also be more vulnerable!
