Okay, for a long time, people have stated that the Trident in FSA is the same as the one in LttP. I beg to differ, so let's have a serious discussion about it. Now it makes sense for Ganondorf to wield a Trident, as he's so tall. However, are all the tridents he uses the same one? Let's look at all the games that he uses them in:
LttP
The trident is white and has two of the prongs curved up with a skull between them.
OoT
It's Phantom Ganon that uses it, but we should still consider it. The trident is grey and has two of the prongs splayed to the sides with a gemstone between them (well a little lower than that, but you get the idea).
OoX
The trident is white and has two of the prongs curved up. There is also a skull on the pummel of the weapon. It is almost identical to the one used in LttP
FSA
The Trident is grey and has two of the prongs angled up with a gemstone between them. The two prongs on the side are the only differences between this and the trident in OoT.
You can't give me the "different design teams" argument. That was only a problem once for the Master Sword, and the remake of LttP rectified that. In the original LttP, the hilt of the Master Sword was red, rather than blue. The same team that worked on that remake worked on FSA and used the same engine. Yet they didn't reuse the trident from LttP.
