Ganon is not a Gerudo

That would also explain the perfect 100 year loop mentioned in Gerudo culture.

I think Ganon chooses a Gerudo form to reincarnate into because that is the strongest and most versatile humanoid vessel he could pick. I would say his true form is actually a Demon King and closest to what is seen in Skyward Sword and ToTK with the flaming hair and grey skin, however due to needing to manipulate other humans and humanoids and fit in with Hyrules society that sort of thing doesn't fly.

Exactly. The Gerudo are some of strongest and most robust of the races. I think it also helps him intially manipulate The Gerudo into being his army, so that he has more than Moblins, Bokoblins, and etc to use in his quest for Power.

I will agree, they are the strongest and one of the oldest races in Hyrue

I headcanon Din created them and The Goron, I got the idea from this art that said so.
I know Farore was supposably the major beings creator, but I think it makes more sense Din made The Gerudo and Goron, Nayru The Hylians and The Zora, and Farore The Kokiri and Deku.

What kind of “Ganon” is this?

The Boar/ Moblin form. I wonder if that is even his true form or just one he adopted before turning into a Gerudo? Ganon may be like SPOILERS (see Echoes of Wisdom topic), and take whatever form allow him to gain greater control. I imagine his Blue Skinned Bokoblin Form helped him make the Boko and Moblins his minions. He tried that same with the Gerudo, but Nabooru, and Urbosa saw through it.

but Link looks like link, not some Bokoblin.

I'm working on a timeline that suggests an answer, to a degree, but it isn't quite finished yet.

Well usually Ganondorf has golden yellow eyes not red. He does have red as Ganon in the older games and Echoes. I think frankly it was from a time when artists wanted be like "red eyes means evil for kids." Its why Link looks like Peter Pan and Robin Hood, the creators wanted kids to quickly recognize Link is the Hero.
