Entrance
I'll take the ship!/Squadala!
Rides onto the stage via his ship. There was a originally a different entrance, where he gets dropped off by Gwonam, but the ship entrance was used instead.
Special Attacks
Neutral B - Triforce of Courage
The King throws the Triforce in an attack similar to Din's Fire. When hit by the glowing entity, they will be stunned for a few seconds. The move is much faster than Zelda's.
- Triforce of Wisdom - A faster variant with no vertical movement, and less damage at all distances.
- Triforce of Power - Much more vertical movement and a delayed explosion that grows based on distance travelled.
Origin
The triforce has been a staple in the Zelda series. It is said to be the ultimate source of power. It is made up of three pieces, the top triangle is the triforce of power, the left is the triforce of wisdom, and the right is the triforce of courage. These pieces can be easily seperated, but it's most recognizable by fans when the three pieces are put together to make the triforce itself.
Side B - Dinner Throw
The King throws 3 types of Food items (namely and in order, a Hamburger, a Sushi Platter, and Fried Rice). There is a ⅓ chance that the item will land on the ground and heal it's respective amount of damage.
- Extreme Food - Only Brussels sprout and a Hamburger being throwned and only does 2% damage, but heals more, and the brussels deals more.
- Random Food - As the name implies, he throws food at random order, and does 7% damage, but the brussels and food deals and heals less.
Origin
The attack comes from a cutscene the CD-i game Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon, where the King asks what's for dinner.
Up B - SQUADALA!!!
The King hops on Gwonam's (known as Squadala by fans) magic carpet. If used corrects it can be used to fly for an unpresidented amount of time. Dinner Throw can be used in conjunction with this. In Super Lawl however, he can no longer glide and throw dinner, but the vertical reach has been increased.
- Squadaquick - Increases startup, but goes in a horizontal way, and deals less damage.
- Lazy Gwonam - A slower loop, then strike with a single attack. It has increased vertical height, though it has a different startup animation that lasts longer and removes the initial hit.
Origin
The move comes from a cutscene from Link: The Faces of Evil that plays whenever Link travels to a new town.
Down B - Slippery Spill
The King spills the drink from it's goblet (possibly red wine or fruit punch). It can be used as a projectile in mid-air. When it's spilled on the ground, an enemy can trip in it. Pressing A near the spill will clean it up. In Super Lawl, he can no longer spill another drink, and is larger, making it useful, but cleans slower.
- Drink Toss - Spills a small drink farther that does more damage and cleans faster, but cannot trip the opponent.
- Super Drink - Spills a much larger drink that can trip the opponent thrice, but cleans much slower.
Origin
The scene comes from the final cutscene from The Wand of Gamelon where Zelda and the King have a laugh. The drink from the King's goblet can be seen spilled in a few frames.
Final Smash - Dinner Blaster
The screen zooms into Harkinian and he laughs evilly, then he starts shooting barage of hamburgers rapidly. It can cause damage and push opponents off the stage. The barrage goes on until a giant hamburger comes out, ending the attack. The blaster can be aimed by moving the control stick up or down. However in Super Lawl, instead of shooting burgers, he shoots a light-blue laser beam that is more arking to the modern YTPs starring the attack, but still retain the giant burger at the end (Deals 15% from the laser, and 30% from the giant burger).
This is the only attack not to be from Link: The Faces of Evil or Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon. It comes from this video.

Character Description
King Harkinian is a King of Hyrule and father of Princess Zelda.
Harkinian appears in the video games Link: The Faces of Evil and Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon. Although not having much of a role in The Faces of Evil, he plays a bigger role in The Wand of Gamelon when he leaves Hyrule to help his cousin, Duke Onkled, whose lands of Gamelon are being attacked by the evil forces of Ganon. After a month of absence, Princess Zelda, Harkinian's daughter, decides to go to Gamelon to find her father. It is later revealed that Onkled betrayed his cousin, had him imprisoned, and sided with Ganon in exchange of power. Link was sealed into a mirror by Ganon with the use of magic. Zelda then manages to free both her father and Link, and Onkled is made to "scrub all the floors in Hyrule".
These games are often used to create "YouTube Poop" remix videos, and Harkinian is often used as a character in them. Most of his dialogue has become an internet meme, with such phrases as "Dinner," "My boy" (often phoneticized as "Mah boi"), and "Scrub all the floors in Hyrule" being especially popular.

Role In SSE
He is confronted by I.M. Meen, who teleports into his castle. Seeing an army of Primids approach the castle, the winner revives the loser to aid him in defeating the primids. They then travel across the Hyrulean landscape to chase down the Halberd, which had released the Primids. Meanwhile, a Subspace Bomb was left in Hyrule, and most of it is sucked into the Subspace void as a result. Determined to exact vengeance, he and I.M. Meen defeat "the gluttonous demon of the cavern" Glutko and travel through the Lost Woods. He finally finds Link (MAH BOI!!!), but is trophitized by Robotnik. However, he is defeated by Meen, and the resulting explosion sends him very close, incidentally to Leonidas, who revives him. Thanks to his help, Leonidas survives an ambush that was set for him by Robotnik and Xerxes. From there, the two kings adventure onward, sharing a common goal.
