'''Porky''', otherwiseoriginally known as '''The Pig King''' andlocalized as '''Pokey Minch''' in EarthBound (but still called Porky in Mother 2), is a character from the [[wikibound:Mother (series)|''MotherEarthBound'' series]], known as (''EarthboundMother'') in Americaseries]]. He wasis athe majorsecondary characterantagonist in ''[[wikibound:Earthbound|EarthBound]]'', appearing as [[Ness]]'s rival, and is the main antagonist in ''[[wikibound:Mother 3|Mother 3]]''. Porky appears as a boss in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' in his Spiderspider-bed Mechmech. In theThe Subspace Emissary, he fights [[Ness]] and [[Lucas]] and later appears in [[The Great Maze]]. His theme for ''Brawl'' was first revealed in the [http://smashbros.com Smash Bros. DOJO!!]. Several depictions of Porky (as a kid) along with his statue make an appearanceappear in the background of the [[New Pork City]], stage;along with his themestatue. A variation of ''His Highness{{'}} Theme'' is alsoamong the playable tracks in New Pork City.
 
Though [[Nintendo of America]] localised his name as "Pokey" in ''EarthBound'', "Porky" was used in his subsequent appearances in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]]. His Japanese name, 「ポーキー」 (''Pōkī''), can be interpreted as either, but with ''Mother 3''{{'}}s heavier "pig" themes, "Porky" is believed to be the intended name.<ref>[http://earthboundcentral.com/2012/01/pokey-or-porky/ Pokey or Porky?]</ref>
