Monotoli Building

The Monotoli Building, referred to as the Monotoly Building in Japan ( Monotoly Building), is the headquarters of mayor Geldegarde Monotoli located in Fourside in EarthBound. It is a 48-story office building owned by Monotoli himself. Prior to this, however, it was known as the Enrich Flavor Building during its ownership by Fourside's former mayor Enrich Flavor, and in the post game when Monotoli resigned and returned the ownership to him. The building itself is most likely based off the in.

During the game's events, Monotoli had fallen under control by the Mani-Mani Statue and was being given further advice by Porky Minch, who is in his own office within the building. At first, Ness and his friends are only allowed up to the 47th floor where Porky and his father can be found. The building is also where Paula is being held captive by the brainwashed Monotoli. They are later given special permission by the maid Electra upon giving her the Yogurt Dispenser, granting access the 48th floor.

Overview
The Monotoli Building is one of the tallest buildings in Fourside surpassed only by the city's hospital, and is located near the Grand Department Store. The only areas visited in game is the lobby on the first floor, the 47th floor where Porky's office is located, and the 48th floor containing Monotoli's office. The 47th floor consists of two rooms. Porky's office is the room on the right. When spoken to, he will insult Ness then have his bodyguards kick him and the party out, saying to never show their faces to Porky again. Beside that room his father Aloysius can be found where he boasts about living as a rich man due to his son's success.

On the 48th floor, there are many security robots who will fight off intruders. Aside from the two inaccessible bathroims, there are four doors on the hallway of the 48th floor. The two doors on the right of the bathrooms both lead to the same room. The two doors left of the bathrooms, however, have an extra door in the back which leads to a maze of office rooms. At the end is a set of double doors guarded by the Clumsy Robot which leads to Monotoli's head office.

History
When Ness first arrives there, he and his friends find that Porky now works there in his own office, where he is referred to as Master Porky. He had been giving Monotoli, who is already under the Mani-Mani Statue's control, further political and economical advice. During the blackout in the Fourside department store, Paula was kidnapped and then taken to Monotoli's office in the building. Monotoli's maid Electra made an agreement with Ness and Jeff to allow them to access the top floor should they give her the Gourmet Yogurt Machine, as she and Porky are eager to try Trout yogurt. Ness gives her the Yogurt dispenser and as thanks, gives them the permission to the 48th floor where they are given Trout yogurt as thanks. Ness and Jeff then search for Paula in the building. Just as they are about to enter Monotoli's head office, they are ambushed by the Clumsy Robot, however the Runaway Five rush in to rescue them by flippng off the switch on the robot's back.

In the office, they find Paula and Monotoli, where Monotoli apologizes for kidnapping Paula. She reassures the team that she is fine and that Monotoli is not actually a bad person, and advises that they listen to his speech. He explains how the Mani-Mani Statue took control of him and was told by Giygas in the illusion to stop Ness. He advises that Ness and his friends should visit Summers as Giygas does not want them to, and allows Ness and the party to use his personal helicoptert as transportation. However, Porky steals the helicopter as they are about to board, forcing them to travel to Summers another way with the Runaway Five's help.

After Giygas's defeat, Monotoli resigned as mayor and gave the ownership of the building back to Fourside's former mayor, Enrich Flavor, with Monotoli now working as the elevator man.

In the series
Fourside appears as a stage in Super Smash Bros. Melee and later Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, and the Monotoli Building makes an appearance in both iterations of the stage. The building itself is the centermost building with a generic apartment building on the right, and the Dinosaur Museum on the left. Battles take place on the roof of the building.

The building is a more rounded shape with the right side extending farther, the helipad where Monotoli's helicopter occasionally lands on part of the background on the right side. In Ultimate ' s iteration of the stage, if the camera is positioned just right, Monotoli's office is fully rendered inside the building.
