Since the deku sticks do full master sword damage in OoT, its clear.

The Deku stick is the real master sword, and the one sleeping in the Temple of Time is just a decoy.

Its the literal key to the Sacred Realm, but its not the actual blade that seals the evil. The ¨blade that seals the evil' is a rare plant that only grows in kokiri forest.

In Wind Waker, to ensure that ganon wouldn't hunt them down, one lone Deku stick was nurtured in Hyrule castle at the bottom of the great sea, disguised as the master sword since Ganon had at that time figured it all out and would spend his time in the great sea tracking down and destroying deku sticks since there are none left at the great sea.

The 'master sword' lies in the forest in ALTTP and BotW so that is pretty self-explanatory.

In TP, the 'sword' is still only the key and there are no deku sticks, but in order to gain power, the Interlopers transfered the power of the deku sticks to link's fishing rod with dark magic, again to trick ganondorf and that's why he gets distracted by it in the final fight, because he was so frustrated that neither the 'master sword' nor the deku sticks turned out to have the power that seals the evil so he just gets awestruck when he sees the fishing rod

Back when SS showed the first big trailer, a handful of us foolishly theorized Ghirahim was Vaati. Good times... :shrugs:

Since there are no cuccos in skyward sword, cuccos evolved from loftwings :cucco:
Actually, that might actually explain the lack of oocoo in SS, despite them living in the sky in TP and being said to have helped create hyrule..... oocoo evolving from loft wings make a lot of sense...

The DT is actually the original course of events. The upset in time occurs when Ganon eventually wins and destroys everything, prompting whoever was alive at the time to send Navi back in time in hopes of helping OoT Link stop Ganondorf from ever getting the ToP.

This could explain why the Deku Tree was so sure that the fate of the world depended on Navi, as well as the significance of her "This time, we fight together!" line at the end.

Significance of that "This time, we fight together!" is literally cuz the Dorf force-pushed her outta the boss room cuz he figured she was the reason link was such a goddamn crack shot. He used Phantom Ganon to (the only boss who operates like him) to probe links abilities and he learned that Navi was the source of links magic aiming.........cuz c'mon how the balls did link only just pick up a bow and suddenly become Annie Oakley?

Though honestly i do feel like OOT was just the point where Time fractured due to the G-man winning, in only one timeline is the Pig Beast entirely, in the the others he's still relatively human and in the CT he does go beast mode. So yah i reckon Ganondorf drew on the full triforce itself, because all 3 pieces had started to resonate at that point, to become Pig Ganon and doing so fracture time completely, Zelda attemptes to fix it and just instead drops the ball in time and space.

Well in other games he doesn't have a companion to target lock with, I chalk it up to the Spirit of the Hero making him a natural with swordplay, and using a bow and what not.

Also in OoT target locking with the bow only works in close quaters combat anyway, so all the really fantastic shots happen by free aiming (and besides in the 3DS remake, I sucked at using the bow in OoT). Getting rid of Navi was more a means to add a challenge to the lightning tennis, and like you said, he figured out that Navi was aiding him to make that easier with the Phantom Ganon fight with that second half of the fight where the Phantom uses a version of it (which imo is a bit more difficult than lightning tennis during the real Ganondorf fight). I suppose he thought by eliminating Navi he could get an upperhand with his trademark move.

Ganondorf wanted to start a rock band in Ocarina of Time in which he would play lead organ. In his tower, all those rooms where he has Silver Rupees laying around are flexes on how rich he is - he has Rupees to spare, so maybe he did make his dream come true.

He threw up after Link beat him because he was really hung over from a crazy night of partying like a rockstar.

The Happy Mask Salesman is the reincarnation of Rupin from SS. They do favor each other quite a bit in both appearance and mannerisms. That, and they're both creepy salesmen.
