Trophy
Trophy #171
- Moon
- High in the sky above the Clock Town Tower, a menacing moon slowly sinks towards the city. Shrouded in mystery and feared by all, it threatens to devour everything and everyone in a cataclysm of fire. Strangely, inside the moon is a beautiful, pristine plain broken by a single tree. The moon breaks after Link defeats Majora's Mask.

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
As a background character
The Moon reprises its role as a background character in Great Bay, which returns from Melee.
As an Assist Trophy
The Moon appears as an Assist Trophy. When summoned, it appears in the background of the stage, before crashing down to it, becoming more fiery as it gets closer. Once it hits the stage, it deals multiple hits, before disappearing.
Origin
The Moon, controlled by Skull Kid under the effects of titular mask, is the constant threat of Majora's Mask. Link is given three in-game days to save the world of Termina from the Moon's destruction (though he can turn back time with his ocarina), and if he should fail to do so, the Moon will crash into Termina and destroy the world. This sequence serves as a "game over" in Majora's Mask, and serves as the inspiration for the Moon's appearance as an Assist Trophy in Ultimate.
