[[File:Morph Ball mpp Model.png|left|The Morph Ball model from Pinball]] The '''Morph Ball''', known as '''Morphing Ball''' in ''[[Super Metroid]]'', is [[Samus Aran|Samus Aran's]] alternate form. When using the Morph Ball, Samus is transformed into a one meter diameter metallic sphere. This allows her to travel through tight passages into which she would normally not be able to fit. Using various modular upgrades, its abilities can be extended. Other creatures and [[Bounty Hunter|hunters]] can use systems similar to Samus's Morph Ball. | [[File:Morph Ball mpp Model.png|left|The Morph Ball model from Pinball]] The '''Morph Ball''', known as '''Morphing Ball''' in ''[[Super Metroid]]'', is [[Samus Aran|Samus Aran's]] alternate form.

==Appearances== | |||
===''Metroid''=== | |||
The Morph Ball made its first appearance in the game ''[[Metroid]]''. It is located on a pedestal to the left of where Samus starts the game in [[Brinstar]]. It allows Samus to fit into tight spaces and, once the [[Morph Ball Bomb|bomb]] upgrade is acquired, lay bombs. | |||
===''Metroid: Zero Mission''=== | |||
The Morph Ball reappeared in the game ''[[Metroid: Zero Mission]]'', a remake of the original ''Metroid''. It is once again located a pedestal in [[Brinstar]] right to the left of where Samus starts the game. Its role is identical to its role in the previous game, including the use of Bombs after the appropriate upgrade has been found. | |||
===''Metroid Prime''=== | |||
Samus is in possession of the Morph Ball at the beginning of ''[[Metroid Prime (game)|Metroid Prime]]'', but she loses it when a wall of fire hits her on the [[Frigate Orpheon]]. Samus acquired it again after defeating a large group of [[Beetles]] and one [[Plated Beetle]] in the [[Chozo Ruins]]. It functions the same as in previous installments, with the addition of the unlockable [[Boost Ball]] and [[Spider Ball]] features and the ability to lay [[Power Bomb|Power Bombs]] after the corresponding upgrade has been found. | |||
===''Metroid Prime Hunters''=== | |||
Samus has possession of the Morph Ball throughout ''[[Metroid Prime Hunters]]''. Samus is also able to gain the use of other bounty hunters' alternate forms, which all function similarly to the Morph Ball. | |||
===''Metroid Prime 2: Echoes''=== | |||
Samus kept possession of the Morph Ball throughout ''[[Metroid Prime 2: Echoes]]'', keeping possession of it even when the [[Ing]] swarmed over her, stealing most of her upgrades. The Morph Ball functions in the same manner as in ''Metroid Prime'', including the use of Bombs, the Boost Ball, the Spider Ball, and Power Bombs. | |||
===''Metroid Prime 3: Corruption''=== | |||
Once again, Samus possessed the Morph Ball through all the events of ''[[Metroid Prime 3: Corruption]]''. In this game, it was upgraded not only by the returning Boost Ball and Spider Ball, but a brand new upgrade known as the [[Hyper Ball]]. | |||
===''Metroid II: Return of Samus''=== | |||
Samus has possession of the Morph Ball throughout ''[[Metroid II: Return of Samus]]'', and it is once again supplemented by the ability to lay bombs after the upgrade has been found. | |||
===''Super Metroid''=== | |||
In ''[[Super Metroid]]'', Samus loses the Morph Ball along with all of her other upgrades, leaving only the [[Power Beam]]. Fortunately, the Morph Ball is on the same pedestal just to the left of the elevator coming into [[Brinstar]]. In this game, the Morph Ball can be upgraded by both bombs and the new unlockable [[Spring Ball]], which enables Samus to jump in Morph Ball form. [[Power Bomb|Power Bombs]] can also be found in this game, and once again require the use of Morph Ball mode to be used. | |||
===''Metroid Fusion''=== | |||
When Samus is injected with a [[Metroid (species)|Metroid]] vaccine at the beginning of ''[[Metroid Fusion]]'', she loses all her abilities once again, including the Morph Ball. The Morph Ball is located in the [[Main Deck]], and can be obtained by defeating [[Arachnus X]]. The Morph Ball is once again upgraded by the Morph Ball Bomb and the Spring Ball, now known as the Jumpball. | |||
