'''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.

*Metroid
:A parasitic life form that can absorb all types of energy. Metroids have a strong resistance to most conventional weaponry. To defeat them, Samus Aran had to freeze them with [[Ice Beam]] shots and then blast them with [[Missile|missiles]]. [[Mochtroid|Mochtroids]], which look like Metroids, are weaker, with fewer internal nuclei.

:''A {{wp|Biological engineer|bioengineered}} life-form found on planet [[SR388]]. Metroids attach to organisms and drain life energy. The [[Galactic Federation]] commissions Samus to eliminate them, but [[Space Pirate]]s try to harness their power. One of the few ways Samus can kill Metroids is by shooting them with the [[Ice Beam]] and then shattering them with [[missile]]s. The Metroid's cry is chilling and indescribable.''
