[edit] Story
Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.
In the first regular game in a Linked Game session, they first appear in the guise of an elderly woman to dissuade Link from pursuing his quests against Veran or Onox, depending on who Link tackles first. They once again appear before the final confrontation with that villain, revealing themselves to be in fact Koume and Kotate before flying off once again. After defeating one of the two villains, it is revealed that he/she lit their corresponding flame, which is needed to revive their surrogate son, Ganon. Veran's sowing of misery lights the Flame of Sorrow, while Onox's rampage lights the Flame of Destruction.
It is revealed that Twinrova were in fact using Veran and Onox as unwitting pawns in an attempt to light these said flames and resurrect Ganon. To complete these, they also kidnapped Princess Zelda in order to sacrifice her and light the third and final Flame of Despair. Link intervenes, however, and rescues Zelda after confronting the witches. Desperate, they sacrifice themselves as a replacement for Zelda, but since they were not pure of heart Ganon was revived as a mindless, raging monster rather than his old, cunning self.

[edit] Battle
[edit] Phase One
All Links needs to do is stay on the bottom of the screen and hit the ice ball at the fire twin or the fire ball at the ice twin. It only takes three shots in all to defeat them. Instantly after their defeat, the two join together to form Twinrova.
[edit] Phase Two
Link takes out his Scent or Ember seeds with the Hyper Slingshot or Seed Shooter. If Twinrova is in her fire form, Link needs to avoid falling into the lava in the center of the room; if Twinrova is in her ice form, the floors are icy and Link has trouble getting a good footing. After he attacks her enough, she will face Link, revealing both of her fire and ice side at once. Link uses his Hyper Slingshot/Seed Shooter to shoot her with the scent/ember seeds. After being hit several times, she is defeated, and unable to sacrifice Zelda; however, she makes an impromptu sacrifice of herself to revive Ganon.

While Link is heading to fight Onox, Koume and Kotake disguise themselves as old women in order to throw Link, Maple, and Ricky into a trap. After Veran is defeated and the Flame of Sorrow are lit, Koume and Kotake immediately sacrifice themselves to light the last Flame of Despair, without fighting nor merging into Twinrova beforehand.
