The Porky Statue made its first appearance in ''[[Mother 3]]''. Acting as a parody of the {{s|wikipedia|Statue of Liberty}}, the Porky Statue is a statue of [[Porky Minch]] with the inscription: "''The smartest, bravest, and toughest chubster of all time. Here stands a statue of our great leader, Master Porky.''"; instead of the torch and tablet held by the Statue of Liberty, the Porky Statue also holds a comic book and a slingshot.

In ''Mother 3'', the Porky Statue acts as an optional boss after [[Lucas]] and his allies locate [[Boney]] and defeat {{s|wikibound|Fassad}} for the last time. The statue does not attack unless it is interacted with three times. The statue, however, is effectively impossible to defeat, having one hundred million hit points as well as attack/defense stats that are beyond the normal character stats at level 99. Although it is possible for Lucas to land a particularly lucky [[PK Flash]] attack on the statue to instantly defeat it, a more practical method involves the use of the [http://www.wikibound.info/wiki/List_of_battle_items_in_Mother_3 New Year's Eve Bomb], an otherwise useless item which reduces its HP to 1. It is rarely possible for the item to fail on this enemy as well.

The statue does not attack unless it is interacted with three times. Its attacks are to "Stomp its feet," which produces a powerful shockwave that will try to KO all characters, to "Swing both arms all around," dealing medium damage to two party members, and to "Attack with a book," which does very high damage to one party member.

Its attacks are to "Stomp its feet," which produces a powerful shockwave that will try to KO all characters, to "Swing both arms all around," dealing medium damage to two party members, and to "Attack with a book," which does very high damage to one party member. If the player does manage to "defeat" the statue without Flash or the New Year's Eve Bomb (by hacking the player characters' stats) the game freezes as can be seen [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xgi2jHPSihc here]. The statue disappears after being defeated, leaving the highest experience reward in the game as well as 2400 "DP," the most money in the game. The "Trivia Card 4" item is also given as a reward by a man near the statue for defeating it.


Contrary to its depiction in the Subspace Emissary, Porky himself is not hidden within the statue in ''Mother 3''.

The Porky Statue appears as a [[hazard]] in [[Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|The Subspace Emissary]] level [[The Ruined Zoo]]. It is immune to all attacks and chases down {{SSBB|Lucas}}, slowly advancing while destroying all obstacles in its path. Touching its body deals immense knockback, being an [[OHKO]] on every [[difficulty]] except Easy (where it can still KO below 30%). It will also try to fall on the player with even higher knockback; this attack is always an OHKO.

During the level, the Porky Statue falls in a lake two time and respawns a few seconds later, falling from the sky. After enough time has passed {{SSBB|Ness}} shows up and destroys it, revealing [[Porky Minch]] who was hiding inside it.

''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.''
