'''Porky''', oftenly entitled '''Lord''', '''(Pig) King''' or '''Master''', originally localized as '''Pokey''', is a character from the [[wikibound:Mother (series)|''MOTHER'' series]], known as ''Earthbound'' in America. He is the major antagonist in ''[[wikibound:Earthbound|EarthBound/MOTHER 2]]'', and is the main villain in ''[[wikibound:Mother 3|MOTHER 3]]''. Porky appears as a boss in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' in his Spider-bed Mech. In the 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" in his subsequent appearances in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros. series]]. His original name, ポーキー (Pōkī), can be interpreted as either, but with ''MOTHER 3''{{'}}s "pig" themes, fans believe ''Porky'' to be the intended name.<ref>[http://earthboundcentral.com/2012/01/pokey-or-porky/ Pokey or Porky?]</ref> |

When Lucas walks 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 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. His appearance in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' is outside the ''Mother'' series' canon. |
