Editing Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary

[[File:Subspace Emissary Brawl map.png|thumb|200px|The map of the Subspace Emissary]]
'''The Subspace Emissary''' is the adventure mode campaign of ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. Rather than being based around organized one-on-one or group fights, it usually functions as a {{wp|beat 'em up}}-style game, with occasional more traditional ''Super Smash Bros.'' fights. Taking place in the [[#World of Trophies|World of Trophies]], The Subspace Emissary has a full-length plot and several stages, being more advanced than its {{iw|smashwiki|Adventure Mode (SSBM)|equivalent}} from ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. It has five {{iw|smashwiki|difficulty}} settings: Easy, Medium, Hard, Very Hard, and Intense. The main map shows the world map and which places can be entered, and when the player selects a stage, they can choose which characters in their team to use, with the number of options increasing as the storyline progresses. The player can use [[Sticker (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|sticker]]s, each granting a certain effect such as resistance or an increases statistic. When the player loses every {{iw|smashwiki|stock}}, they can be asked to continue, although any [[sticker]]s and trophies of enemies collected are reduced in half. If the player quits, they receive a {{iw|smashwiki|Game Over}}, resulting in the loss of half of their stickers, but not of the collected trophies. A method for unlocking each of the unlockable {{iw|smashwiki|fighter}}s is through The Subspace Emissary, but three of them can be unlocked only after completing the mode and defeating them in a battle.

The Subspace Emissary can be played in single-player or with two players. The {{iw|smashwiki|camera}} always follows the first player, so if the other player goes offscreen, they warp to the first player automatically. Even if only the first player is defeated, this still takes them to the continue screen. The Start Button or {{button|wii|Plus}} button can warp the second player to the first player, although this does not work during boss battles.

{{main-wiki|SmashWiki|Plot summary of The Subspace Emissary}}
The story begins with the [[#Subspace Army|Subspace Army arriving on the [[#Halberd|Halberd]] and interrupting a fight between [[Mario]] and [[Kirby]]. The [[#Ancient Minister|Ancient Minister]] deploys a [[#Subspace Bomb|Subspace Bomb]] controlled by two [[R.O.B.]]s, and while Mario tries to intercept it, he is knocked away by [[Petey Piranha]], who has both [[Princess Peach|Peach]] and [[#Zelda and Peach|Zelda]] each trapped in a cage. Kirby does manage to defeat Petey Piranha, rescuing only one of the princesses, while [[Wario]] arrives to steal the other. The Subspace Bomb eventually detonates, consuming the [[#Midair Stadium|arena]] into [[#Subspace|Subspace]].

[[File:WarioPeachTrophy.png|thumb|left|Peach turned into a trophy by Wario]]
Meanwhile, in the jungle, [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] is separated from [[Donkey Kong]] by [[Bowser]], though Diddy would soon team up with [[Fox]], who had been struck down into the jungle with his {{iw|lylatwiki|Arwing}}. The characters are joined by [[#Falco|Falco]], as well as [[#Captain Falcon|Captain Falcon]] and [[#Olimar|Olimar]], all of whom manage to rescue Donkey Kong from the Subspace Army. Fox and Falco leave the group to continue battling the Halberd, now with assistance from the {{iw|lylatwiki|Great Fox}}.

Elsewhere, [[#King Dedede|King Dedede]] turns [[Luigi]] into a [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]] then uses him to distract Wario as King Dedede steals his [[cargo]] and its contained trophies. [[#Lucas|Lucas]] and the [[#Pokémon Trainer|Pokémon Trainer]] later defeat Wario in retaliation for capturing Ness earlier. After the Pokémon Trainer catches [[#Pokémon Trainer|Charizard]], he and Lucas meet up with [[#Marth|Marth]], [[#Meta Knight|Meta Knight]], and [[#Ike|Ike]]. The fighters watch as the Halberd battles the Great Fox, prompting Meta Knight to scale the cliffs to try and reclaim the Halberd. On the way up, Meta Knight is joined by the [[#Ice Climbers|Ice Climbers]], then later [[#Lucario|Lucario]] after battling him on the summit. After the Ice Climbers fall as a result of the Halberd smashing the tethered Great Fox against the mountain, Meta Knight and Lucario take the opportunity to board the ship.

[[File:SubspaceBombEscape.png|thumb|Mario, Yoshi, Kirby, Link, and Pit escape from a Subspace Bomb.]]
Mario is later revived by [[#Pit|Pit]], while [[Link]] and [[Yoshi]] team up in the forest. When Kirby leaves, Bowser makes an evil clone of the captured princess: If the clone is of Peach, it attacks and is defeated by Link, who is met with retaliation from Mario; if the clone is of Zelda, it is defeated by Mario, who is met with resistance from Link instead. Either way, the conflict between Mario and Link ends when King Dedede arrives with the other princess statue, and both Mario and Link team up against him. The characters follow King Dedede back to his {{iw|wikirby|Castle Dedede|castle}}, though they are not able to prevent Bowser from crashing in and taking the princess, leaving behind a [[#King Dedede's Timed Badges|badge]] that King Dedede had put on his three stolen statues. The heroes soon team up with the Ice Climbers, Lucas, Pokémon Trainer, Marth, and Ike.

[[File:MinisterDepressed.png|thumb|left|The Ancient Minister reflects on his actions.]]
Meanwhile, [[Samus|Zero Suit Samus]] infiltrates the Subspace Army's base on the [[#Isle of the Ancients|Isle of the Ancients]], rescues [[#Pikachu|Pikachu]], recovers her {{iw|metroidwiki|Power Suit}}, and battles [[#Ridley|Ridley]]. She and Pikachu head over to the Subspace Bomb depot. Diddy, Donkey Kong, Captain Falcon, and Olimar all arrive too, having ridden an enemy barge to the island. The Ancient Minister confronts the fighters at first, but loses morale after so many R.O.B.s had been sacrificed to detonate Subspace Bombs. The Ancient Minister's robes are burned away by the R.O.B.s, whom [[#Ganondorf|Ganondorf]] has taken control of, revealing the Ancient Minister to be the main R.O.B. As more Subspace Bombs are being activated, the protagonists leave on the {{iw|fzerowiki|Falcon Flyer}}, being unable to stop them.

Back on the Halberd, Meta Knight and Lucario team up with [[#Snake|Snake]], free the captured princesses and kick a crew of [[Mr. Game & Watch]] clones out of the cockpit. Peach and [[#Sheik|Sheik]] (Zelda's disguised form) make their way onto the deck as Fox and Falco attack in their Arwings. Snake, Lucario, and Falco defeat [[#Duon|Duon]], who had formed from the Mr. Game & Watch clones, freeing the real Mr. Game & Watch. Meta Knight takes the helm of the Halberd and flies it to shore right as the Falcon Flyer lands, uniting all three groups of fighters.

[[File:GanondorfBowserGunship.png|thumb|Bowser and Ganondorf attack the heroes before going into Subspace.]]
From the massive sphere of Subspace that had engulfed the Island of the Ancients, Bowser and Ganondorf emerge with the [[#Subspace Gunship|Subspace Gunship]] and use it to fire larger Subspace blasts. Though the Halberd is destroyed from the attack, this was a diversion allowing the fighters to enter Subspace using smaller aircraft. The gunship is destroyed when Kirby uses the {{iw|wikirby|Dragoon}} to drive into its cannon. During the two villains' retreat, Bowser is betrayed by Ganondorf, who transforms him into a trophy as he visits [[#Master Hand|Master Hand]] before realizing [[#Tabuu (character)|Tabuu]] had been controlling Master Hand all along. Master Hand is defeated by Tabuu, who then transforms every protagonist into a trophy, Ganondorf included. The only exceptions are Ness, Luigi, and Kirby, since each of them had been revived by King Dedede's badges. Throughout Subspace, the three characters rescue every ally and former enemy alike. All of the fighters finally enter [[#The Great Maze|The Great Maze]] and defeat every boss and their [[#False Characters|false counterparts]]. When the fighters make it over to Tabuu, [[Sonic]] arrives unexpectedly and destroys Tabuu's wings, saving the fighters from transforming back into trophies. The story concludes with the fighters defeating Tabuu and finally restoring the [[#World of Trophies|World of Trophies]].

!{{anchor|World of Trophies}}[[File:Subspace Emissary Brawl map.png|200px]]<br>{{iw|smashwiki|World of Trophies}}
|The '''World of Trophies''' (referred to as "'''This World'''" on the Smash Bros. DOJO!! website and in [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]] descriptions) is the general setting of The Subspace Emissary. The characters that appear in the world are described as being fighters that do very little other than battle. After a fighter is defeated, they revert back to an inanimate trophy, though this can be undone if another fighter touches the trophy's base (or if the trophy has one of [[#King Dedede|King Dedede]]'s [[#King Dedede's Timed Badges|badges]] attached to it). The stages in the world consist of a large stadium, a forest, a large grassy land, a jungle, mountains, a large lake, a deserted zoo, a swamp, a desert (which also includes a large castle), a glacial mountain, some ruins, and a large floating island with a secret base.

!{{anchor|Island of the Ancients}}[[File:SSBB Isle of Ancients.png|200px]]<br>{{iw|smashwiki|Isle of the Ancients|Island of the Ancients}}
|The '''Island of the Ancients''',<ref>"''He was once the lord of this world, living on the floating Island of the Ancients with many robots—but the robots were taken hostage on Tabuu's orders.''" - The Ancient Minister's [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]] description</ref> also referred to as the '''Isle of Ancients''' and '''Isle of the Ancients''',<ref name=Dojo/> is home to several [[R.O.B.]]s, led by a single R.O.B. known as the Master Robot.<ref name="Dojo">[http://www.smashbros.com/wii/en_us/gamemode/modea/modea17.html Mysteries of the Subspace Emissary - Smash Bros. DOJO!!]</ref>

When [[#Tabuu (character)|Tabuu]] first found the Island of the Ancients, he decided to use the robots to help him make Subspace Bombs. Taking the island over, he uses their advanced technology to build weapons for the Subspace Army, such as the [[#Subspace Bomb|Subspace Bomb]]s, the [[#Dark Cannon|Dark Cannon]]s, and the [[#Subspace Gunship|Subspace Gunship]]. The Master Robot, not wanting to lose so many R.O.B.s to Tabuu, agrees to join the Subspace Army and reluctantly begins production of the Subspace Bombs, becoming the [[#Ancient Minister|Ancient Minister]] out of shame.<ref name="Dojo"></ref>

After [[#Ganondorf|Ganondorf]] takes control of the robots on the island, he forces them to detonate several Subspace Bombs at once. He does this so as to transport a Subspace Gunship through to the World of Trophies. Later, after the defeat of Tabuu, a shining "X" appears in the sky where the Island of the Ancients was; it did not return to the world as a side effect of the detonation of the many Subspace Bombs at once.<ref name="Dojo"></ref>

!{{anchor|Subspace}}[[File:Subspace.jpg|200px]]<br>{{iw|smashwiki|Subspace}}
|'''Subspace''' is a dark dimension that is highly important to the game's plot. In The Subspace Emissary, the Subspace Army uses [[#Subspace Bomb|Subspace Bomb]]s to draw anyone and anywhere into Subspace. Each time a bomb detonates, a certain part of the [[#World of Trophies|World of Trophies]] is consumed and sucked into a place known as Subspace. The first area ever consumed was the [[#Midair Stadium|Midair Stadium]]. Throughout the game, the Subspace Army kept consuming many other parts of the world. Subspace explosions do not kill characters sucked into it (unless they are at ground zero, as happens with the various [[R.O.B.]] units) and instead just warp them to a world of darkness. 

All the characters in the game eventually enter Subspace, where they follow [[Bowser]] and [[#Ganondorf|Ganondorf]] after the destruction of the [[#Subspace Gunship|Subspace Gunship]]. However, once there, they are attacked and incapacitated by [[#Tabuu (character)|Tabuu]]. [[Luigi]], [[#King Dedede|King Dedede]], and [[#Ness|Ness]] (and later [[Kirby]]) are revived by [[#King Dedede's Timed Badges|badge]]s created by Dedede and come to the rescue, journeying through Subspace and reviving all the trophies. When the heroes have regrouped, even recruiting the former villains into the team, Tabuu forces all the characters to go through [[#The Great Maze|The Great Maze]], a fusion of the areas of the ''Smash Bros.'' world previously pulled into Subspace. After a long journey, the group reaches Tabuu's chamber. [[Sonic]] joins them in the fight. They then defeat Tabuu, causing the consumed locations to be restored to the world.

To face Tabuu, rematches must be taken against the game's large bosses, as well as fake versions of the various characters, all scattered in odd places across the maze. The maze is so large and time-consuming that it has Save Points (which also restore life and allow characters and stickers to be reselected) and Warp Points scattered throughout, while a map appears when the level is paused, adding indicators to remaining battles once a full loop around the maze has been made; it is the only stage with these features. Once Tabuu is faced, he attempts his devastating attack again, only to be interrupted and crippled by [[Sonic]], who joins the heroes for the final battle. Once Tabuu is defeated, all the Subspace explosions cave in on themselves and restore the land to its origin. The [[#Island of the Ancients|Island of the Ancients]], however, remains destroyed due to the amount of bombs deployed at once on it; a glowing X remains in the sky where it once floated.

==Subspace Army==
[[File:Subspace_Army.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|A small fraction of the Subspace Army]]
The '''{{iw|smashwiki|Subspace Army}}''' is a group of formless beings led by {{iw|smashwiki|Tabuu}}, though with a lower hierarchy of other rulers such as {{iw|smashwiki|Master Hand}} and the {{iw|smashwiki|Ancient Minister}}. Their goal is to pull the entire {{iw|smashwiki|World of Trophies}} into {{iw|smashwiki|Subspace}} and destroy it, something that they had hoped to accomplish by using the powerful and deadly {{iw|smashwiki|Subspace Bomb}}s. Some ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' enemies are part of the organization, and both [[Bowser]] and [[Wario]] are commanders, along with fellow ''{{iw|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda (Series)|The Legend of Zelda}}'' villain {{iw|zeldawiki|Ganondorf}}. The army has several weapons and doomsday devices such as the {{iw|smashwiki|Subspace Gunship}}, a flying fortress that can trap entire areas in subspace without the use of the Subspace Bomb, and the {{iw|smashwiki|Dark Cannon}}, which both Bowser and Wario have used to turn characters into [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophies]]. The creatures in the Subspace Army were created from {{iw|smashwiki|Shadow Bug}}s, which originated from [[Mr. Game & Watch]].

|Consists of a big green blob inside of a tank-like structure that moves on treads. It attacks with a very powerful arm and can only be damaged in very small amounts at a time. Attacking the claw destroys it temporarily and causes the tank to open, allowing it to be attacked for much greater damage while it is helpless.
