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 is seen walking through what seems to be an old and broken-down area that hasn't been used for years. Before too long, Shadow Bugs fall from the sky, and form Primid. Lucas starts getting scared, when suddenly, a 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. When Lucas reaches the end, he trips and gets caught on a branch. Just when the Pig King Statue almost has him, Ness arrives and destroys the statue, revealing Porky Minch, himself. The two fight and defeat Porky, but 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, who uses his Squirtle to fight off oncoming Primid. Afterward, Lucas decides to stick with the Pokémon Trainer.
This stage is a cleverly hidden refrence to Earthbound's prequal, 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 charachter Ninten is tasked with stopping the Starman Jr. You need to get the Franklin Badge to defeat it.
