'''Metroids''' are feared parasitic organisms created by the [[Chozo]], with the ability to leech the life energy from living organisms. As explained in the [[Metroid Manga]], they were created in order to eliminate a more menacing parasitic organism native to SR388, the [[X Parasite|X]]. They have been the overall focus of the entire [[Metroid (series)|Metroid series]] in general. Metroids also appeared as Assist [[Trophy|Trophies]] in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

The [[Galactic Federation]] discovered the Metroid on SR388, several specimens were acquired for research. On the way back to headquarters, the Federation ship was ambushed by  [[Space Pirate|Space Pirates]]. Recognizing the military potential, the Pirates took the Metroids to [[Zebes]].

The Federation then ordered [[Samus Aran]] to eradicate all Metroids on Zebes, a mission that she accomplished. Some time later the Federation ordered Samus to eradicate every Metroid on SR388. After destroying every Metroid in her path, she battled and destroyed the Queen Metroid. [[Metroid Hatchling | Another Metroid]] hatched shortly after the Queen was destroyed, Samus spared it and took it to researchers at [[Ceres Space Colony]].

Shortly after Samus left, the Space Pirates attacked the colony. Receiving a distress signal, Samus returned to the station and witnessed [[Ridley (specimen)|Ridley]] escape with the Hatchling. Returning to Zebes, there Samus encounter failed clones of Metroids that were far weaker. After making her way into the new [[Tourian]], she destroyed the Metroids gathered there and eventually encountered the Hatchling, this time far larger. It drained Samus' energy leaving it at critical levels before it left. It reappeared again, just as [[Mother Brain]] was about to kill Samus and sacrificed itself to save her.
