The Swamp (湿地, Wetlands) is the eighteenth stage of the Subspace Emissary in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
Overview[edit]
The stage begins with Fox and Diddy Kong battling through their way through the swamp. After making it through part of the swamp, Diddy and Fox are walking and talking, but unexpectedly, a blast from Bowser's Dark Cannon strikes the former, reducing him to his trophy form. Fox turns and sees the Koopa king as he attempts to do the same to him, but Fox dodges and slides, while Bowser orders some Shadow Bugs to swarm the trophified Diddy. Fox looks at this in a surprised state and then glares at Bowser, who is ready to take aim once more. Blasts are shot around Bowser, who seems to almost trip. An Arwing flies overhead and Falco ejects himself from it, similar to his on-screen appearance. He lands and dashes up to Bowser (possibly using Falco Phantasm, as the sound effect for it can be heard), kicks the Cannon upwards and does a flip. He then starts shooting the Cannon with his Blasters , destroying it as Bowser retreats in his Koopa Clown Car. After this, the Shadow Bugs become a False Diddy, whose size soon enhances. Fox revives the real Diddy and a boss battle starts against the clone. After winning, Diddy will cheer, while Falco walks away. Diddy drags him back and tries to tell him what is happening, but Falco once again walks away. Diddy grabs him and drags him away in the same manner that he did with Fox; and while Falco is dragged away, Fox shrugs and follows.
The trio continue through the swamp, battling many enemies, most of them being the forces of the Koopa Troop. After making it through the swamp, Diddy, Fox, and Falco, standing at the top of a waterfall, spot a platform with Primids on it (ascending to the Isle of the Ancients) and Donkey Kong's trophy. Diddy stomps the ground, mad, but Falco glares over towards the other side of the waterfall, and the Great Fox appears. Fox goes on his own and finds the Halberd at The Glacial Peak, where he proceeds to battle it once again. Falco then joins the player's team.
After clearing the Subspace Emissary, the player can return to this stage, enter a newly placed red door and be taken to Pokémon Stadium 2. There, the player will fight Jigglypuff. If defeated, Jigglypuff will then become unlocked as a playable character and join the player's party.
This and The Great Maze are the only levels in The Subspace Emissary to feature the Thorn Helix hazard.
