He's called "Porky" on the Dojo page about his music. - Cobold (talk · contribs) 10:55, 30 January 2008 (EST)

But that's his Japanese name, his American name is "Pokey". - Smashgoom202 17:49, 30 January 2008 (EST)

The game never appeared outside Japan! What's your source for that name? - Cobold (talk · contribs) 09:51, 31 January 2008 (EST)

Mother 3 wasn't released in America, yes. However, EarthBound (Mother 2) was released in America, and Pokey did appear in that game. For having played it, his name is infact Pokey Minch ingame. Blitzwing (talk · gnome work)
he has a type of a human in the glass thing does anyone no what it is? King Mario f_KMThumbm_38614a2.png

Er...King Mario, it appears your confused about who Porky is. Porky is the human. the machine is called a "Spider-Mech".File:Unknown Shy Guy.PNGHyper Guy (talk)File:Unknown Shy Guy.PNG

Old Pokey?

I think I've spotted a mistake.

"When Pokey is fought, he isn't the old Pokey that appeared with the machine from Mother 3, but rather, he appears as the young Pokey from EarthBound."

This is probably incorrect. If you look closely, you can see what looks like his moustache from Mother 3. [1]

Isn't it Porky in Brawl? I mean, the site says "Porky's Theme". Marcelagus (TCE)

Pokey

Can't we at least add that he was called "Pokey Minch" in EarthBound. I think it's important... - Smashgoom202 08:41, 19 March 2008 (EDT)

Yeah. Although his offical name in Brawl is Porky, his alias of Pokey should be mentioned. HyperToad

Uhum- He was called "Pokey" in Earthbound, as his brother is called "Picky". One, Pokes, one Picks. However, in MOTHER 3, he was changed to Porky to match the Pigmask army and such. We must include something about this. File:Unknown Shy Guy.PNGHyper Guy (talk)File:Unknown Shy Guy.PNG

Was he ever referred to as "Porky Minch" in a Mario-related game? Shouldn't the article be titled just Template:Fakelink? --Garlic Man (talk)

He was referred to simply as Porky in SSBB, but the name Pokeywas apparently a typo, so I think we should just leave this article as is and make a redirect from Porky to here.--FREAK ~Game GameBros.png Freak~ OUT!
