Line 11:
* [[Amnesiac Hero]]: Link wakes up barely remembering anything other than his mission, but gains bits and pieces of his memories during the story.
* [[An Ice Person]]:
** There's Lizalfos with the ability to spit balls of Ice at Link. Fittingly, Link mostly
** Sacred Beast Vah Ruta uses ice objects it creates to attack Link and Sidon. {{spoiler|As it turns out, this was Waterblight Ganon's power all along, since it uses its ability again when Link fights it directly}}.
* [[And 99 Cents]]: Kilton's wares are priced in this manner.
* [[Apocalypse How]]: Class 0, but Calamity Ganon wants to make it
** [[Apocalypse Not]]: The individual towns of Hyrule seems to be managing okay - for now - despite the disaster.
* [[Back from the Dead]]:
** Implied by the name of the shrine where Link was sleeping, "Shrine of Resurrection", though
** During the Blood Moon, Ganon resurrects enemies slain by Link so they can try to kill him again.
* [[Badass Princess]]: Zelda has fit the Trope before, but this is, without a doubt, the most badass version yet. She's been ''fighting Ganon nonstop'' for the past 100 years!
Line 23 ⟶ 24:
* [[Bat Out of Hell]]: Keese, pests who appear at night, sometimes in large swarms. Electric, fiery, and icy versions exist too.
* [[Blob Monster]]: Chuchus, blue blobs with yellow eyes. Also come in Electric, fiery, and icy versions.
* [[Bloodless Carnage]]: To a cartoonish level: if Link kills a normal animal, the animal puffs and turns
* [[Boom! Headshot!]]:
**Shooting arrows to a monster's head inflicts more damage than what they normally deal.
Line 36 ⟶ 37:
* [[Continuity Nod]]: During a ceremony, Zelda makes references to others Links' lives:
{{Quote|Whether [[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|skyward bound]], [[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|adrift in time]], or steeped in the [[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|embers of twilight]], the sacred blade is forever bound to the soul of the hero...}}
* [[Convection,
* [[Cool Sword]]: The Master Sword, of course, but there are others, like the [https://zelda.wikia.com/wiki/Ancient_Bladesaw Ancient Bladesaw]. It's [[Chainsaw Good| a ''freakin' chainsaw'']] that Link uses like a sword!
* [[Cordon Bleugh Chef]]: Purposely
* [[Darkest Hour]]: Shown as history, the battle a hundred years ago which ended with Ganon winning. The ''literal'' darkest hour is [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QVNJL7bErZc shown via cutscene] as a recovered Memory, complete with a [[Hope Spot]].
* [[Dead All Along]]: {{spoiler|The Old Man in the Great Plateau is a dead king. More exactly, King Rhoam of Hyrule}}.
Line 46 ⟶ 47:
* [[Exposed to the Elements]]: Again, subverted. Link needs warm clothing or magic to survive blizzards and high altitudes, and the colder it is, the more protection he needs.
* [[Fingerless Gloves]]: Zelda wears them, apparently only because it looks [[Rule of Cool|cool]].
* [["Get Back Here!" Boss]]: A variant. When Link first meets Naydra, the dragon is covered with Malice that is attempting to corrupt him. Link has to chase after Naydra using the Glider and fire arrows at specific parts of the Malice to purge it and free Naydra. ▼
** Also a good way to fight Guardians, as hitting the eye with an arrow will stun it, but attacking the legs - if it has them - does even more damage.
▲* [[Get Back Here Boss]]: A variant. When Link first meets Naydra, the dragon is covered with Malice that is attempting to corrupt him. Link has to chase after Naydra using the Glider and fire arrows at specific parts of the Malice to purge it and free Naydra.
* [[Good Colors, Evil Colors]]: Anything associated with the Sheikah Slate (like the towers, the Shrines, and the Sacred Beasts) is [[Red and Black and Evil All Over]] until Link uses the Slate on its console; then the red parts turn blue.
* [[Grievous Harm With A Body]]: When Moblins are found with Bokoblins, the former will sometimes ''throw'' the latter at Link!
** Pebblits are unhurt by weapons, but Link can pick
* [[Healing Hands]]: Mipha's special ability is to be able to heal wounds with her hands.
* [[Heroic Mime]]: While this is the first Zelda game to have voice actors, Link, as always, remains silent. This is emphasized in one scene where [[Action Girl| Urbosa]] asks him a question, but he does not vocally answer, and she says, [[The Silent Bob| "Yes, your silence speaks volumes."]]
Line 58 ⟶ 59:
* [[Humongous Mecha]]: The Divine Beasts are robots constructed to fight Ganon, to be piloted by Champions.
* [[Improvised Weapon]]: Link can use wood sticks as weapons. Later, he can use soup ladles like swords, brooms and pitchforks like spears, and pot lids as shields.
* [[Instant Awesome, Just Add Dragons]]: There are three dragons in Hyrule
* [[Kill It With Fire]]: Icy enemies ranges from losing their frigid aura to dying in one hit when exposed to fire.
* [[Large and In Charge]]: Dorephan, king of the Zora, is gigantic, despite the fact his race have more humanoid proportions.
Line 70 ⟶ 71:
* [[Ms. Fanservice]]: In a game that isn't that sexual, Urbosa walks around using a scarf as a skirt and using only small breastplates to cover her torso. Without mentioning the high heels.
* [[Not So Harmless Villain]]: The evil Yiga Clan are decent fighters, but their obsession with bananas and over-the-top buffoon of a leader may lead you into thinking that they are just comical foes like the Bokoblins. {{spoiler| But then you learn about Dorian's backstory as a former Yiga Clan member. The Yiga Clan, in response to his defection, killed his wife and now threaten to kill his children if he does not give up information about Link and Kakariko Village. Even when he complies to their wishes, the clan members decide to execute him for outliving his usefulness, and would have succeeded if Link had not intervened. Despite their goofy demeanor, they are still a ruthless and murderous cult carrying out Ganon's will.}}
* [[Obviously Evil]]: Ganon, even more so than before. He's like a giant spider-demon [[Made of Evil| covered with black
* [[Older Than They Look]]: Purah has the looks and the size of a preteen thanks to an experiment [[Gone Horribly Right]].
* [[Overly Long Gag]]: Sidon swings his arm, smile, and his teeth shine. From the time you first meet him until Link has to go inside Vah Ruta, he probably already did that 12 times.
Line 80 ⟶ 81:
* [[Sealed Good in a Can]]: Zelda, seeing as she's sealed ''herself'' in order to keep Ganon sealed.
** Also, the Sheikah monks, who have been inside the shrines in deep meditation for ''thousands'' of years until needed.
* [[Shock and Awe]]: In a nutshell, being electrocuted in this game temporarily stuns you as you drop
** Electrical Keese, Electrical Chuchus, and Lightning Wizzrobes, as their names make it obvious. They'll try to shock Link by contact, but don't have other forms of attack.
** Lizalfoes and Lynels often carry Shock Arrows; Link can use them too, and they are useful against enemies in water. They are required for the battle against
** Thunderblight Ganon is a lightning-themed boss.
* [[Starfish Robots]]: The Guardians have way more than four limbs and have cephalopode-like heads
* [[Super Drowning Skills]]: Link's ability to swim is handled rather realistically; he can swim as long as his stamina wheel holds out. However, he can swim just as well in plate armor as he can in a regular shirt and trousers. It's different for monsters
* [[Trademark Favorite Food]]: The evil Yiga Clan ''really'' likes Mighty Bananas; Link can use them [[Delicious Distraction| to distract members]] while [[Stealth Based Mission| infiltrating their hideout.]] {{spoiler|Monk Maz Koshia - the [[Bonus Boss]] of the Champions Ballad DLC - loves them too, but unlike the Yiga, the distraction trick only works on him ''once''.}}
** A journal you find in the ruins of Hyrule Castle library states that Zelda's favorite dessert is fruitcake, and also has the recipe.
* [[Trick Arrow]]: Link can use arrows that have elemental powers, like ice, fire and lightning.▼
* [[The Undead]]: Stalkoblins, [[Dem Bones|reanimated Bokoblins' skeletons.]]
* [[Underground Monkey]]: Moblins and Bokoblins have Red (weakest), Blue, Black, Cursed, and Silver (toughest) varieties; Master Mode adds the even tougher Gold variety. Keese, Lizalfos, and Chuchus come in normal, Fire, Ice and Lightning varieties; Wizzrobes have the same types except "normal". Octorocks have normal, Forest, Rock, Snow
* [[Video Game Cruelty Potential]]:
** You can force Link to suffer in cold areas by removing his warm clothes, leaving him shivering. Conversely, you can also make him trudge through deserts and volcanoes in full metal armor.
Line 100 ⟶ 102:
** An NPC will give you 500 rupees if you agree to meeting a Great Fairy and making an offering in his place. Nothing is stopping you from ignoring the request and just keeping the money for yourself, though doing so does deprive you of a means of further upgrading your armour.
** When you find an NPC looking over the edge of one of the towers, you have the option of having Link sneak up behind him and shout, "BOO!" (Don't worry, he doesn't fall.)
▲* [[Trick Arrow]]: Link can use arrows that have elemental powers, like ice, fire and lightning.
* [[You Kill It, You Bought It]]:
** Link can use the clubs of Bokoblins he kills, though sometimes you just need to knock the weapon from their hands.
