(I know Porky is technically an aged old man in Mother 3 and this game, but the whole point of his character is that he is this child in an old-man's body and even the Battle Memory makes that clear And even if you want to disregard non-Super Mario titles, a sticker for him portrays him as a child, so I don't think it's that big of a deal, since both old!Porky and young!Porky are represented in a game covered on this wiki.)

'''Porky''', otherwise known as '''The Pig King''' and as '''Pokey Minch''' in earlier appearances, is a character from the ''Mother'' series, known as ''Earthbound'' in America.  He was a major character in ''EarthBound'', appearing as [[Ness]]'s rival, and is the main antagonist in ''Mother 3''. Porky appears as a boss in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' in his Spider Mech. In the Subspace Emissary he fights Ness and [[Lucas]] and later appears in [[The Great Maze]]. His theme was first revealed in the [http://smashbros.com Smash Bros. DOJO!!]. Porky (as a kid) along with his statue make an appearance in the background of the [[New Pork City]] stage; his theme is also playable in New Pork City.
 
==Role in [[Subspace Emissary]]==
When Lucas was walking alone in [[The Ruined Zoo]], [[The Pig King Statue|a giant statue of Porky Minch]] appears and begins chasing him through the zoo, attempting to crush Lucas. At the end of the scene, Lucas got his leg stuck under a root and was about to be killed by the Statue, when Ness appeared to Lucas's rescue, destroying the statue by using [[Ness#PK Thunder|PK Thunder]] and [[PK Flash]]. It revealed a spider-like machine that had Porky inside it, and the boys battled him. Ness and Lucas defeated Porky and destroyed the machine.
