(Also Mother 3 apparently doesn't call him the Pig King - it's "King P". The Pig King is a remnant of one of Mother 3's in-development subtitles.)

'''Porky''', also known as '''King P''' and originally localized as '''Pokey''', is a character from the [[wikibound:Mother (series)|''MotherEarthBound'' series]], known as (''EarthboundMother'') in Americaseries]]. He is the secondary antagonist in ''[[wikibound:Earthbound|EarthBound]]'', and is the main antagonist in ''[[wikibound:Mother 3|Mother 3]]''. Porky appears as a boss in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' in his spider-bed mech. 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 appear in the background of the [[New Pork City]], along with his statue. A variation of ''His Highness{{'}} Theme'' is among the playable tracks in New Pork City.
 
Though [[Nintendo of America]] localised his name as "Pokey" in ''EarthBound'', they used "Porky" was used in his subsequent appearances in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]]. His originalJapanese 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>
 
==Role in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl#The Subspace Emissary|The Subspace Emissary]]==
When Lucas walks alone in [[The Ruined Zoo]], [[Porky Statue|a giant statue of Porky]] appears and begins chasing him through the zoo, attempting to crush him. At the end of the scene, Lucas gets his leg stuck under a root and is about to be hit by the statue, when Ness appears to Lucas's rescue, destroying the statue by using [[Ness#PK Thunder|PK Thunder]] and [[PK Flash]]. It reveals Porky inside his spider-like bed machine, and the boys battle him. Ness and Lucas defeat Porky and destroy the machine.
