The Subspace Emissary (Japanese: 亜空の使者 The Subspace Emissary) is a single-player game that is contained within Super Smash Bros. Brawl. It is a side-scrolling action game with a storyline that is said to emphasize character development. Most of the playable characters are protagonists, including Pikachu, Pokémon Trainer and Lucario.
The characters form teams based on the developments of the story. Masahiro Sakurai has stated that most hidden characters are unlocked by simply playing through The Subspace Emissary and, indeed, Lucario is unlocked in this fashion. A second player can join at any time, though the camera will focus on player one.
In order to obtain trophies of the enemies in this game, the player must throw a Trophy Stand at them. This acts just like a Poké Ball as it 'captures' the opponent when they are at low health. It also works against bosses, such as Rayquaza.
Plot
Led by a being known as the Ancient Minister, the Subspace Army's plan is to cut apart the world and carry it into Subspace. This is achieved by two R.O.B.s detonating a Subspace Bomb and the minions known as Primid attacking anyone who resists. Now everyone must join together to stop this threat.
Rayquaza
Separated from DK, Diddy Kong sees an Arwing get shot down by a blast from a nearby lake. Upon reaching the lake, Rayquaza emerges from the water and captures Diddy Kong but then Fox jumps out of the ship and makes a dramatic rescue. Rayquaza then attacks Fox with a ball of energy, but Fox reflects it back at Rayquaza. Fox and Diddy Kong then fight Rayquaza.
Along with the other bosses in the game, Rayquaza is fought again in the final stage, The Great Maze.
Pikachu
While searching for her stolen power suit in the research facility, Zero Suit Samus discovers Pikachu, whose electricity is being harnessed for the facility's power in a capsule-like machine. Seeing the pain it causes to Pikachu, Samus uses her Paralyzer Whip to free it, sounding an alarm. Pikachu and Samus travel together throughout the facility and the Bomb Factory.
Pokémon Trainer
Lucas bumps into the Pokémon Trainer at The Ruined Zoo. They decide to team up to help rescue Ness from Wario and help Pokémon Trainer capture Ivysaur and Charizard. The two travel together throughout most of the game.
He starts out with only Squirtle, and later captures Ivysaur and Charizard at The Ruins.
Lucario
At the top of a snowy mountain, Meta Knight and the Ice Climbers encounter Lucario. After a fight that unlocks Lucario, he helps Meta Knight in his mission to recover his stolen battleship Halberd from a hoard of Mr. Game & Watches.
He later uses his aura to detect Snake hiding in a box and an approaching enemy threat. Lucario then assists the characters in fighting Duon.
Jigglypuff
After beating the Subspace Emissary, the player can return to the swamp and locate a door that did not exist before. Upon entering the door, a cinematic shows Jigglypuff singing at Pokémon Stadium. The player then fights Jigglypuff; if they succeed, Jigglypuff joins the player's team. Other than this, Jigglypuff doesn't have a significant role in the story.
