The Pig King Statue, also known as the King P. Statue is a huge statue of Porky Minch from Mother 3. It can be seen in New Pork City and appears as a boss there in Mother 3.

In Mother 3

The Pig King statue is an optional boss in New Pork City (Chapter 8) and is fought by examining it 3 times and answering yes on the third. It has 999,999,999 HP and when using the New Years eve bomb on it, reduces it's HP to 1. It can also be defeated by using Lucas's PK flash ability (although it may take a few tries.)

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl

The Pig King Statue (called the Porky Statue by its in-game trophy) can be seen in the background of the New Pork City stage in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. The statue is also a collectible trophy.

The Pig King Statue also plays a role in The Subspace Emissary. It chases Lucas down until Ness shows up after enough time has passed and destroys it, revealing Porky Minch, himself. Strangely, it cannot be defeated when it chases down Lucas, even though it is a boss.

Trophy Description

A guardian statue standing inside New Pork City that's clearly based on Porky himself. Investigate it, and the statue will turn hostile and start a battle. And it has 100,000,000 HP! It has very high stats, so you'll never win if you attack it straight-on. Thankfully, there's an item called "New Year's Eve" that can reduce its HP to 1--then you can defeat it with ease.
