After the events of [[Metroid Zero Mission]]/[[Metroid]], [[Ridley]] was revived as Meta Ridley. The [[Space Pirates]] resuscitated his mortally damaged body, enhancing him with mechanical infusions and an array of weapons systems, including a missle system, plasma cannon, and plasma bombs. Meta Ridley was then to go to the [[Frigate Orpheon]] to finish repairs, at least, until disaster struck.
'''Meta Ridley''' is a cybernetic transformation of the dragon-like creature geoform 187, code-named [[Ridley]]. After the events of ''[[Metroid (game)|Metroid]]'', Ridley was revived as a mechanical counterpart, Meta Ridley.

After Ridley's defeat at the hands of [[Samus Aran]] on the planet [[Zebes]], the [[Space Pirate]]s resuscitated him and began reconstruction on his mortally damaged body on [[Frigate Orpheon|Frigate ''Orpheon'']],<ref>{{cite|Subject >> Meta Ridley<br>Weapon update complete<br>Stinger ballistics >> online<br>Plasma fuel cell >> online|Scan Data|Metroid Prime}}</ref><ref>{{cite|Subject >> Meta Ridley<br>Cerebral casing stable.<br>Exoskeloton seal holding.<br>Begin umbilical retraction.|Scan Data|Metroid Prime}}</ref> enhancing him with metagenetic and cybernetic improvements and an array of weapons systems, including a [[Multi-Missile System]], a [[Kinetic Breath Weapon]], an [[Ultrathermal Flamestrike Projector]], and a [[Meson Bomb Launcher]]. These supplements resulted in a drastic increase in strength, mobility, and offensive capability, making him a perfect candidate for the pride of the Space Pirate security force.<ref>{{cite|The reconstruction of geoform 187, code-named Ridley, was recently completed. After his defeat on Zebes, Command ordered a number of metagenetic improvements for him. Though aggressive, we were able to implement these changes in a cycle. The metamorphosis was painful, but quite successful in the end. Early tests indicate a drastic increase in strength, mobility, and offensive capability. Cybernetic modules and armor plating have been added as well. We believe our creation, now called Meta Ridley, will become the mainstay of our security force, a job he will certainly relish.|[[Space Pirate Data]] "Meta Ridley"|Metroid Prime}}</ref>

Meta Ridley was completing his final upgrades in the Frigate Orpheon when the 2 out of 3 [[Parasite Queens]] busted out of their containment module's and began to ravage the Frigate Orpheon apart. One of the Parasite Queens went into the evacuation room and the Space Pirate's were able to destroy it. The second one went to the Reactor core of the ship. [[Samus Aran]] came because of a distress beacon and killed the final Parasite Queen and then met Meta Ridley at last. Meta Ridley finally was able to escape the Frigate Orpheon, and Samus followed...
==Appearances==
Meta Ridley wasn't seen until [[Phendrana Drifts]] and he was seen heading towards [[Phazon Mines]].
===''Metroid Prime''===
Finally after Samus got the 12 [[Chozo Artifacts]] and was about to enter the [[Impact Crater]]. Then suddenly Meta Ridley attacked. Samus defeated him and Meta Ridley was hit by a laser beam from the artifact temple statues and fell to his death, or so it seemed...

[[file:Meta_Ridley_mp3_Artwork.png|right|200px]]
Meta Ridley was on-board the Space Pirate Frigate ''Orpheon'' when the mutated [[Parasite Queen]]s being experimented upon there broke free and began wreaking havoc, and briefly encountered Samus Aran before escaping the deteriorating Frigate and heading for [[Tallon IV]]. Samus follows Meta Ridley but does not encounter him again until she is exploring the [[Phendrana Drifts]], where his shadow is seen as he flies overhead in the direction of the [[Phazon Mines]].


== Meta Ridley in ''[[Metroid Prime 3: Corruption]]'' ==
After Samus obtains all 12 [[Chozo Artifact]]s and is about to enter the [[Impact Crater]], Meta Ridley confronts her in the [[Artifact Temple]] and a battle ensues. Initially, Meta Ridley attacks Samus from the air with his long-range arsenal, destroying the [[Chozo]] totems in the process. After incurring sufficient damage, however, his wings disintegrate and he engages her in melee combat on the ground.


Meta Ridley was revived after that fall and was re-equiped with the same systems and given [[Phazite]] Armor. Meta Ridley was seen attacking [[Norion]] and was first seen attacking a platoon of [[Galactic Federation Marines]]. Next Samus had to face him while in [[Morph Ball]] and used bombs to shake him off. Then she had to go to [[Generator C]] where Meta Riley attacked. They engaged in an epic free fall battle. Samus defeated him and he fell to his death but was revived as [[Omega Ridley]].
Samus defeats Meta Ridley, and he is assumed dead after a direct hit by a laser beams emitted from the statues adorning the Artifact Temple and a fall off a cliff into the Impact Crater.

===''Metroid Prime 3: Corruption''===
Meta Ridley was revived after that fall, re-equipped with the same systems, and given [[Phazite]] Armor before he appears again. Samus witnesses Meta Ridley attacking [[Norion]] and was first seen attacking a platoon of [[Galactic Federation#Trooper Classes|Galactic Federation Marines]].
 
[[file:Meta Ridley mp3 Artwork 02.png|150px|left]]
Samus has to face him while in traveling through confining spaces in [[Morph Ball]] form and use [[Morph Ball Bomb|Bomb]]s to shake him off while evading his attacks.
 
Afterwards, she manages to get to [[Generator C]], where Meta Ridley attacks again. He lunges at her from above and forces them both through the floor into an extremely long shaft beneath the generator. They engage in battle while in a state of free-fall, and Samus manages to emerge victorious [[Countdown|before they impact]] the base of the shaft. Meta Ridley is presumed destroyed, but he is revived again as [[Omega Ridley]].

Meta Ridley is a boss in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. He can be fought, like all other bosses of that game, in the Subspace Emissary and in Boss Battles mode. In the Subspace Emissary, Meta Ridley attacks Samus as she and company are escaping on Captain Falcon's Falcon Flyer. He attacks by swooping, knocking the Flyer off-screen, and by breathing a variety of fiery projectiles.
