Skull Kids first appeared in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time]]'' as minor characters, with one in particular who befriends Link once he plays Saria's Song to him and rewards Link with a piece of heart. In ''{{iw|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask}}'', a Skull Kid becomes a central character. Lonely and depressed due to a lack of friends, he is shunned and downtrodden by the people of {{iw|zeldawiki|Termina}} because of his many tricks and pranks. Still, he managed to find companionship in {{iw|zeldawiki|Fairy}} siblings {{iw|zeldawiki|Tatl}} and {{iw|zeldawiki|Tael}}. One day, he manages to steal a mask from the {{iw|zeldawiki|Happy Mask Salesman}}. This mask was [[Majora's Mask]], which corrupts him when he puts it on. He now wished to destroy all of Termina by striking it with the [[Moon]]. He crosses Link during this time, which sets the events of the game into motion. This Skull Kid is the basis for ''Super Smash Bros. 4''{{'}}s Assist Trophy. A Skull Kid also appears as a minor character in ''{{s|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess}}'', who plays hide and seek as a form of guidance towards the Master Sword and the Temple of Time and as a miniboss who sends shadow puppets to attack Link.

The Skull Kid's attack as an Assist Trophy is not based on any known ability of Majora's Mask itself, although Skull Kid has been seen using the power of the mask to curse people for his own amusement. Two of his attacks, however, have a mechanic that makes reference to the {{s|zeldawiki|Stone Tower}} and [[zeldawiki:Stone Tower Temple|its respective temple]], which must be inverted for Link to progress.

It'll move into the background and bring down a world of chaos on the whole stage. Even the fighter who summoned him will be affected, so try to keep a level head!

Skull Kid serves as the basis for the Skull Kid's Hat Headgear and the Skull Kid's Outfit for the {{SSBU|Mii Brawler}}.

Skull Kid's Spirit Battle uses a Mii Brawler puppet fighter wearing a Skull Kid's Hat and Outfit and can be fought on the [[Distant Planet]] stage. He is fought along two [[Tiny]] {{SSBU|Meta Knight}} puppet fighters representing Skull Kid's fairy companions, Tatl and Tael. During the battle, Skull Kid appears as a hostile Assist Trophy while the stage is covered in fog, referencing the fog of the Lost Woods where the Skull Kid resides.

Skull Kid & Majora's Mask can be obtained by [[enhanceable spirit|enhancing]] the Skull Kid spirit at level 99.
