We know enough about Phazon now to begin combining it with Space Pirate DNA. The code name for this venture will be 'Project Helix'. Preliminary studies indicate that Phazon infusion could produce radical new Pirate genomes. Benevolent mutation levels are high in current test subjects. Phazon madness is a concern, but refinements in the infusion process should reduce or neutralize the odds of mental degeneration.|[[Space Pirate Data]]|Metroid Prime}}</ref> [[Samus Aran|Samus]] battles three in the [[Phazon Mines]], though there were several in stasis that did not attack Samus.

After Samus enters Elite Control, the exits will become blocked with shields. The first Elite Pirate will break out of its stasis pod and attack. While dodging its shock waves Samus may use her [[Thermal Visor]] to target its plasma cannon allowing her to destroy it. This enables her to stay outside of the range of all of its attacks. | After Samus enters Elite Control, the exits will become blocked with shields.

{{Logbook|Elite Pirate|Phazon-enhanced Space Pirate. Incredibly strong, armored, and well armed. Elite Pirates are potent foes. Their energy-siphon system absorbs Beam weapon shots, which they use to fuel a massive Plasma Artillery Cannon. The nature of this system makes them vulnerable to concussion-based weapons. Well armed, the Elite Pirate is effective in close combat and at a distance. Their massive size can be a weakness, and their sluggish speed allows for evasion and quick attacks.<ref>{{cite|Phazon-enhanced Space Pirate. Incredibly strong, armored, and well armed.
