'''Nightmare'''<ref name="Nightmare" /> is an organism outfitted with mechanical devices capable of manipulating gravity encountered by [[Samus Aran]] in ''[[Bottle Ship]]'' and the [[Biologic Space Labs Research Station|B.S.L research station]]. It can generate a gravitational field that impedes [[Samus Aran|Samus']] movement and diverts weapons fire. Nightmare is also capable of firing beams of energy and homing projectiles. | '''Nightmare'''<ref name="Nightmare" /> is an organism outfitted with mechanical devices capable of manipulating gravity encountered by [[Samus Aran]] in ''[[Bottle Ship]]'' and the [[Biologic Space Labs Research Station|B.S.L research station]].

On the way to [[Sector Zero]], Samus encounters areas of the [[Sector 2 (Cryosphere)|Cryosphere]] with irregular gravity. It is soon revealed that this gravity is a result of the presence of Nightmare, who descends from the ceiling when Samus attempts to enter its room. While its gravity generator spins, Samus's movement is impeded, and [[Missile]]s are ineffective until she can [[Ice Beam|freeze]] the generator; after that, she must fire Missiles at its mask until the cycle repeats again. Once enough damage has been dealt, the mask will shatter, revealing Nightmare's grotesque | On the way to [[Sector Zero]], Samus encounters areas of the [[Sector 2 (Cryosphere)|Cryosphere]] with irregular gravity.

Upon Samus's return from the sector, Nightmare attacks Samus once again; this time, it will send out black holes that draw in all of Samus's weapons fire. Once defeated, its body will fall apart and rest on the ground until the post-credits sequence, when it will have disappeared, presumably transferred to the [[Biologic Space Laboratories Research Station|Biologic Space Labs research station]] for its appearance in ''Fusion''. | Upon Samus's return from the sector, Nightmare attacks Samus once again; this time, it will send out black holes that draw in all of Samus's weapons fire.

After Samus damages the manipulator enough, it and the plate covering Nightmare's face will be destroyed. Nightmare will then move in erratic patterns attempting to ram Samus as well as firing energy beams. Nightmare's movements will make the [[Space Jump]] a powerful tool to evade Nightmare's attacks. After Samus inflicts further damage to Nightmare, its [[Core-X]] will become exposed, allowing Samus to destroy it and attain the [[Gravity Suit]] from it. | After Samus damages the manipulator enough, it and the plate covering Nightmare's face will be destroyed.
