'''The Ruined Zoo''' ({{ja|荒廃した動物園|Kouhaishita Doubutsuen}}, ''Ruined Zoo'') is the seventh stage of the [[Subspace Emissary]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''.


==Overview==
'''The Ruined Zoo''' (Japanese: 台無しにされた動物園 ) is an area in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''.  It is part of the [[The Subspace Emissary]].  Here, [[Lucas (SSBB)|Lucas]] is seen depressingly walking through what seems to be an old and broken-down area that hasn't been used for years.  It is unknown what was here before. Before too long, [[Shadow Bugs]] fall from the sky, and form [[Primid]]. Lucas starts getting scared, when suddenly, a [[Pig King Statue|giant Porky statue]] crashes down and chases after Lucas.
{{SSBB|Lucas}} is seen dejectedly walking through an old and broken-down zoo. Before too long, [[Shadow Bug]]s fall from the sky, and form [[Primid]]s. Lucas gets scared, when suddenly, a [[Pig King Statue|giant Porky statue]] crashes down and chases after Lucas.


The Ruined Zoo is a side scrolling area in which Lucas must run away from the Pig King Statue before he knocks him out. The camera scrolls forward (to the right) as the statue walks on. The higher the difficulty, the faster the statue will go. At one point, the statue will fall into the water; however, the statue respawns shortly thereafter by falling from the sky. When Lucas reaches the end, he trips and gets caught on a branch. Just when the Pig King Statue almost has him, {{SSBB|Ness}} arrives and destroys the statue, revealing [[Porky Minch]]. The two fight and defeat Porky, but {{SSBB|Wario}} appears and attempts to turn Ness into a trophy with his [[Dark Cannon]]. However, when Ness proves to be too difficult to hit, Wario sets his sights on Lucas instead. Noticing this, Ness sacrifices himself, pushing Lucas out of the way while he himself turns into a trophy. When Wario leaps from his perch to claim his prize, Lucas runs away in fear.

Just when the Pig King Statue almost has him, [[Ness (SSBB)|Ness]] arrives and destroys the statue, revealing [[Porky Minch|Porky Minch]], himself. The two fight and defeat Porky, but [[Wario (SSBB)|Wario]] appears and turns Ness into a trophy (after attempting to turn Lucas into one).  Lucas runs away in fear and eventually runs into the [[Pokémon Trainer (SSBB)|Pokémon Trainer]], who uses his [[Squirtle (SSBB) | Squirtle]] to fight off oncoming Primid. Afterward, Lucas decides to stick with the Pokémon Trainer and both of them are now in your group.


He eventually runs into the {{SSBB|Pokémon Trainer}}, who uses his {{SSBB|Squirtle}} to fight off oncoming Primids. Afterward, Lucas decides to stick with the Pokémon Trainer in order to save Ness and get revenge against Wario.
==Enemies Introduced==
 
*[[Porky Statue]]
==Origin==
[[File:PodunkZoo.png|thumb|Ninten in front of the {{s|wikibound|Choucream Zoo}} in ''Mother''.]]
The concept of characters from the ''Mother''/''EarthBound'' series exploring a ruined zoo may be based on the Choucream Zoo thrown into chaos in ''[[Mother]]'' by the forces of a Starman Jr. until the game's protagonist, Ninten, stops the Starman Jr. and restores order to the zoo.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*This is one of three levels (alongside [[Midair Stadium]] with {{SSBB|Mario}} and one of {{SSBB|Peach}} or {{SSBB|Zelda}} alongside [[The Jungle]] with {{SSBB|Donkey Kong}}) in the Subspace Emissary where the player can play as a character (in this case, {{SSBB|Ness}}) during the level and not unlock them at the end. As Ness is the only one of these to be an unlockable character in general, completing this level does not unlock him for other modes.
*This stage is a cleverly hidden refrence to Earthbound's prequel, Mother. In Mother, an alien named Starman Jr. is using a hypersonic sound to cause the animals to destroy the zoo in a town named Podunk, and the main character [[Ninten]] is tasked with stopping the Starman Jr. You need to get the [[Franklin Badge]] to defeat it.
*In addition, it may be a reference to the Pokémon Safari that appears in Pokémon Red & Blue which was under renovations in Gold & Silver.
*This is the only level in the Subspace Emissary where you get to control a hidden character (in this case, [[Ness (SSBB)|Ness]]) during the level and not unlock them at the end. He can be unlocked much later where he officially joins your team in the SSE.
*The first part of the level is based on running from the Heavy Lobster from Revenge of Meta Knight in Kirby Super Star. It includes breakable objects, hitting switches, a small delay of the foe and the foe destroying anything in its path. Also in both, leads into a boss fight. The differance is the fact that enemies (Primids and Buckots) appear in the area.
