'''New Pork City''' ({{ja|ニューポークシティ|Nyū Pōku Shiti}}, ''New Pork City'') is a stage in  ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' based on the location of the same name in ''Mother 3''. In ''Ultimate'', it is where Lucas is fought when being unlocked.


==Stage overview==
'''New Pork City''' is a stage in  ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', hailing from the game ''Mother 3''. It is a massive stage, approximately the size of the [[Temple]] stage in both ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and ''Brawl''. It is comprised of dozens of buildings, giving the impression of a large city. However, the battle area consists of a series of platforms that seem to have no connection to the city itself.
New Pork City presents itself as a massive stage, being by far the biggest stage in ''Brawl''. It is composed of dozens of buildings, giving the impression of a large city (hence the name), though the battle area consists of a series of platforms that seem to have no connection to the city itself.


On the very right side of the stage, there are a series of thin platforms vertically arranged on top of each other, from which it is possible to do a [[stage jump]] with some characters. The top of these is the highest point on the stage, being about 3/4 of the way up to the upper blast line. To the left of these platforms is a swinging "pendulum" platform, resembling the swinging ship ride seen in the city's original appearance in the game. Directly below this is a large, sloped platform. The left edge of this drops down to a platform of wooden planks with a painting of a building laying flat. This platform is breakable, and can result in early deaths if one is not careful. The left side of this platform is connected to another bumpy platform, connected to a slope facing downwards to the left. Directly above this are two very thick, floating cubical platforms connected to each other. The rightmost point of this is slightly to the left of the rightmost point of the slope. Directly left of the sloped platform is a small floating slope. This is between the large cubical platforms and a small, thin platform connected to a larger, cube-shaped one. To the left of this is the left-most point on the stage, a flat, small platform with medium thickness. The bottom-most point of the stage is a small limousine that flies from the left to the right of the stage, though this only appears sometimes. Far into the background is a silhouette of an actual city, despite the fact that New Pork City itself is floating and unconnected to it. Interestingly, the camera does not zoom in very much, even if all characters are near each other, even though it zooms in when the game is paused.
Like the [[Temple]] stage, this stage is banned in many tournaments for being too large as well as the Ultimate Chimera hazard.


The [[Ultimate Chimera]] appears a major hazard in this stage. Appearing randomly on the large right platform, the bottom platform with the breakable floor, or the two large leftmost platforms, it walks slowly and its bite attack results in 100% damage with very high [[knockback]] in ''Brawl'',  usually a guaranteed [[one-hit KO]] if not [[tech|teched]] - which turns out to be quite helpful in [[event match]]es set in the stage, such as [[Event 27: Three-Beast Carnage]], as the knockback applied is strong enough to trump the factor of the amplified weight of the giant opponents. The attack has 2 hitboxes which can both damage the player simultaneously, potentially resulting in 200% damage. In ''Ultimate'', the bite no longer launches fighters, and instead deals an [[instant KO]] - likely as a result, the Ultimate Chimera roars when it first appears without attacking, giving nearby players a chance to get away. If the combo menu is open, it can be seen that the attack still deals 100% damage.
==Ultimate Chimera==
[[Image:Ultimate_Chimera.jpg|thumb|250px|The Ultimate Chimera]]
The '''Ultimate Chimera''' is a hazard in [[New Pork City]]. Appearing randomly in any part of the stage, it walks slowly and its bite attack results in a [[One-hit KO]] and deals about 100% or 200% damage each bite. The Ultimate Chimera can only be defeated by destroying the makeshift bridge platform at the lower center of the stage when it walks over it, although it will return later in the match. Also, it is possible to [[tech]] the attack.


===Ω form and Battlefield form===
===Chimera Facts===
In ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', the [[Ω form]] and [[Battlefield form]] is set on a metallic structure designed similarly to the metallic [[hard platform]] structures of the regular form, and it is the same size and shape as {{SSBU|Final Destination}} and {{SSBU|Battlefield}}, respectively. The three [[soft platform]]s' designs resemble the soft platforms of the regular form. The Ultimate Chimera is also absent.
*It is possible to [[air dodge]] through the Chimera.
<gallery widths="200px">
*When the Chimera appears the field becomes darker (like when a Smash Ball has been broken), and it will also make a *ching* sound--the same sound heard when it would notice [[Lucas]] in ''[[MOTHER 3]]''.

*It is also possible to survive the Chimera's bite while wearing a Metal form. If bitten, knockback and damage will be significantly reduced, but the Metal state will be lost.

*For some reason, when one walks over to the Ultimate Chimera as [[Giga Bowser]] the Chimera will not bite and completely ignore your presence.

*The sound effect used for it's roar in Mother 3 can be heard after defeating Porky Minch in Subspace Emissary.


===Hazards Off===
===In Mother 3===
With hazards off in ''Ultimate'', the Ultimate Chimera does not appear, the flying limousine does not fly into the playing field, the breakable floor can no longer be hit, and the swinging platform does not swing.
In Mother 3, The Ultimate Chimera is first seen in the Chimera Factory (in chapter 7) then appears in the Empire Porky Building in New Pork City (in chapter 8). When it sees or is near Lucas' party, it will pursue them. Engaging it in battle is useless as it will kill the party in one hit when it is engaged. The Ultimate Chimera still has an "off" button on his back, but the bird on its head will turn it back on when turned off in Mother 3, and is useless in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

*''Porky's Theme''
New Pork City is the final location in ''{{s|wikibound|Mother 3}}'', where one of the {{s|wikibound|Seven Needles}} is located. The city was built by [[Porky Minch]], who forcibly brainwashed and gathered the inhabitants of the {{s|wikibound|Nowhere Islands}}—along with various peoples across different time periods—in order to commemorate the destruction of the world by the {{s|wikibound|Masked Man}} pulling the final Needle. [[Lucas]] and his partners were the only people invited to the city, chauffeured by a flying limousine. There are many attractions in the city, including an amusement park, a movie theater, an arcade, a restaurant, and the [[Porky Statue|King Statue]]; however, most of the buildings in the city are actually just wooden billboards. The most prominent building, however, is the {{s|wikibound|Empire Porky Building}}, which is a 100-story skyscraper where Porky resides. In this stage, the city itself is in the background and, for the most part, uses the original sprites from ''Mother 3''; however, the size of the city has been greatly increased. The swinging platform bears resemblance to the pirate ride in the amusement park, and the destructible wooden platform on the bottom has a face of a building painted on it.

*'''''You Call This a Utopia?!'''''
In ''Mother 3'', Porky gathered various scientists from different times and ordered them to create {{s|wikibound|chimera}}s—creatures made through mechanizing animals or combining them with each other. The {{s|wikibound|Ultimate Chimera}} was designed to be a killing machine; it is an incredibly dangerous creature feared even by its creators, and if Lucas approaches it, he'll be instantly defeated by its powerful bite. It was created in the {{s|wikibound|Chimera Laboratory}} in the {{s|wikibound|Murasaki Forest}}, and appears again on the Empire Porky Building's restroom floor.

==Tournament legality==
'''Songs in bold must be unlocked'''
New Pork City has been banned universally in tournament play since the beginning of ''Brawl's'' competitive scene. The most significant of its problems is its extreme size and extreme amount of empty space; characters can live to absurd [[damage]] percents without the aid of a [[cave of life]], and can easily outcamp slower characters just by running away. Besides being able to cause [[broken|game breaking]] [[camping]], this can make it impossible for matches here to finish without going to [[time out|time]], and greatly prevents matches from flowing smoothly. The stage is additionally difficult to traverse due to irregular [[floor]] design and [[platform]] placement and the aforementioned extreme amount of empty space, and the [[camera]] has issues with being able to zoom in properly, which further disrupts gameplay within the stage. The stage also has several walls, allowing for wall [[infinite]]s and [[zero death]]s, as well as places to [[tech]] against to extend survival even farther. The final major problem is the Ultimate Chimera, which while can be reasonably (and arguably easily) avoided, still has guaranteed OHKO power if a player is bitten by it in a stage where characters can realistically approach [[sudden death]] damage percents consistently, making it an overly powerful stage hazard that can have too large of an impact in a match regardless.
 
==Trivia==
*In the background on the right side of the stage you can see the [[Porky Statue]].
*There is also a glitch that can be performed with [[Falco]].  If you stand on the facade floor and shoot your blaster to the left, the shots will stick onto the far platform for a short time.
*In event match descriptions, New Pork City is often called "the tyrant's town". The tyrant is [[Porky Minch]].
*The flying limo acts as a platform, but only when it appears at the bottom of the screen.
*The buildings in the background are not rendered in 3D. Instead, they are the original 2D sprites from ''MOTHER 3''.
*On the stage selection, it refers to the stage hailing from Earthbound, although it is not from said game (although it could be refering to the series as a whole).
*Despite being a stage threat, The Ultimate Chimera does not have a trophy.
*It is obvious that New Pork City is supposed to represent New York City.  Their names sound similar, both have lots of buildings.  The Pig King Statue is obviously supposed to represent the Statue of Liberty as well as the Empire Pork Building mimicking the Empire State Building.

==Trivia==
[[File:NewPorkCitySkyscraper.png|thumb|The Empire Porky Building, as seen with an unrestricted camera in ''Brawl''.]]
*In ''Brawl'', the model for the Empire Porky Building extends far above the stage, and it even pierces the stage's skybox.
*Although this stage originates from ''Mother 3'', ''Brawl''{{'}}s stage selection screen labels it ''EarthBound'' (''Mother'' in the Japanese version). This was changed to ''Mother 3'' in all versions of ''Ultimate''.
*When {{SSBB|Pokémon Trainer}} is selected, he will stand on the streets in the background.
*The Pigmask's logo appears stamped on all solid [[platform]]s.
*{{SSBB|Fox}}, {{SSBB|Falco}}, and {{SSBB|Pit}} can perform the [[Laser Glitch]] here in ''Brawl''.
*[[Shadow Sneak]] will sometimes warp Greninja off the ground in this stage.
*In ''Ultimate'', the following [[Assist Trophy|Assist Trophies]] can only appear on the Battlefield and Omega forms of this stage: [[Metroid (creature)|Metroid]], [[Kapp'n]], [[Dr. Kawashima]], [[Arcade Bunny]], and the [[Ghosts]]. [[Color TV-Game 15]] and [[Nikki]] (due to the dark background obscuring her drawings) cannot be summoned on this stage at all. Additionally, [[Alolan Exeggutor]], [[Lunala]] and [[Marshadow]] can only be summoned from [[Poké Ball]]s on the stage's Battlefield and Omega forms.
