|notes=An evil creation of Ganondorf and the boss of the Forest Temple. First, you must shoot Phantom Ganon three times with an arrow as he tries to exit a painting. To make things difficult, Phantom Ganon has his own phantom, riding through the paintings with him. The fake Phantom Ganon turns and heads back into its painting while the real one leaps out of the painting while casting lightning bolts at the Triforce emblem in the middle of the arena. To avoid being hit by the electrical blast, do not stand in the center of the arena, or on the small Triforces that surround it. The best place to stand is right between two of the small Triforce emblems on the floor, which ensures that you will be safe from the electricity. The easiest way to determine the real one is to look at both the paintings they are coming from and find the phantom that looks slightly brighter: the brighter of the two is the real Phantom Ganon. After being hit with 3 arrows, he descends from his horse and float above the arena. In the second phase of the battle you must return Phantom Ganon's energy ball attacks with your sword. You must time your strokes so that you'll deflect the ball of electricity before it hits you. Continuously {{control|{{N64|Z}}|{{gc|L}}|{{wii-cc|L}}}}|{{3ds|L}}|{{Switch|ZL}}}}-Target him to keep your attacks aimed. Shorter distance attacks are more likely to hit him. When you hit him with one of his own spells, run toward him and attack him with your sword. After being hit four times, he will add a new attack: when you see him charge up his staff with a kaleidoscopic light, prepare to move fast. Phantom Ganon will hop on his staff and ride it like a broomstick. If you wait until he targets you and starts his swoop, you can sidestep him and avoid taking damage. Keep reflecting his balls of electricity and move in and strike him until he is defeated. Another way to defeat him is to wait until he gets close to the ground. Then hit him with your sword to stun him. After he falls to the ground hit him with your sword until he gets back up.
