'''The Ruined Zoo''' (Japanese: 台無しにされた動物園, ''Dainashi ni sa re ta Doubutsu-en'' ) is a level in the [[Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|Subspace Emissary]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. 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]]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 Pig King Statue walks on. The higher the difficulty, the faster the Porky statue will go. When Lucas reaches the end, he trips and gets caught on a branch. Just when the Pig King Statue almost has him, [[Ness (SSBB)|Ness]] arrives and destroys the statue, revealing [[Porky Minch]], himself. The two fight and defeat Porky, but [[Wario (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. He eventually runs into the [[Pokémon Trainer (SSBB)|Pokémon Trainer]], who uses his [[Squirtle (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. When the stage is over, both Lucas and Pokémon Trainer join the player's group.

==Enemies Introduced==
*[[Porky Statue]]
*[[Buckot]]
*[[Porky]]
*[[Floow]]
*[[Bytan]]

==Music==
*While running from the Porky Statue and while fighting Porky, ''Porky's Theme'' plays.
*During the first part of the section including Pokmon Trainer, ''Wild Pokémon Battle! (Diamond / Pearl)'' plays.
*During the second part of the section with Pokémon Trainer, ''Team Galactic Battle!'' plays.

==Trivia==

*This is the only level in the Subspace Emissary where the player can control a hidden character (in this case, [[Ness (SSBB)|Ness]]) during the level and yet not unlock them at the end.
*The first part of the level is based on the "Revenge of Meta Knight" section of ''Kirby Super Star'', in which the player must run from the Heavy Lobster. Similarities include breakable obstructions, the pursuer destroying anything in its path, hitting switches to open doors in the player's way, momentary delays of the pursuer, and a boss fight at the end of the pursuit. The only major difference is that the ''Kirby Super Star'' level didn't feature any enemies other than the Heavy Lobster, while The Ruined Zoo features many enemies, such as Primids and Buckots.
*A green pipe from the ''Mario'' series can be seen in the background a few times.
*Pairing Lucas with Pokémon Trainer is not as far-fetched as some of the other partnerships in the Subspace Emissary, as Creatures Inc. (formerly Ape Inc.) worked on both the ''Pokémon'' series and the ''Mother'' series.
*Before Lucas is introduced, a portion of the Love Theme from Mother 3 can be heard.

-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.

-==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==
-*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.
