The '''Paralyzer''', earlier known as the '''Emergency Pistol''', is [[Samus Aran|Samus's]] only secondary weapon, generally inferior but useful when Samus is without her [[Power Suit]]. It is self charging and will stun opponents when it is fully charged, but it is nonlethal. An uncharged shot does nothing to opponents. It is capable of destroying blocks obstructing Samus's path. | The '''Paralyzer''', earlier known as the '''Emergency Pistol''', is [[Samus Aran|Samus's]] only secondary weapon, generally inferior but useful when Samus is without her [[Power Suit]].

After [[Samus Aran's Gunship|Samus's Gunship]] is shot down in ''[[Metroid: Zero Mission]]'', she is left without her [[Power Suit]] and is forced to infiltrate the [[Space Pirate Mother Ship]]. The only weapon available to her is the Paralyzer, which at the time was only known as the "Emergency Pistol." After evading the Pirate defenses, Samus will make it to the [[Ruins Test]] and defeat it with the Paralyzer. Once Samus defeats the Ruins Test, she gains the [[Legendary Power Suit]] and loses need for the Paralyzer. | After [[Samus Aran's Gunship|Samus's Gunship]] is shot down in ''[[Metroid: Zero Mission]]'', she is left without her [[Power Suit]] and is forced to infiltrate the [[Space Pirate Mother Ship]].

The Paralyzer appears alongside [[Zero Suit Samus|Zero Suit Samus's]] second playable appearance. The pistol appears strapped to Samus's left thigh during death sequence and certain cut scenes. She only uses the gun in battle against [[Zebesian]]s as she [[Self-Destruct Sequence|escapes]] the [[Main Sector]] of the exploding [[Bottle Ship]]. This time around, the Paralyzer seems to be more powerful. Unlike her earlier experience, a charged shot is not required to paralyze enemies, however a charged shot will leave enemies paralyzed longer. Samus also uses the paralyzer to open certain hatches. She can either shoot multiple beams to open them or shoot one charged shot. In this game, the Paralyzer is not self-charging, Samus must charge it herself. | |||
