SR388: Difference between revisions

'''SR388''' is the name of the home planet of the [[Metroid (species)|Metroid species]]. It is also home to the [[X-Parasite|X-Parasites]], the natural prey of Metroids.

In ''[[Metroid II: Return of Samus]]'', [[Samus Aran|Samus]] traveled to SR388 to exterminate the Metroid species due to the threat they posed to the galaxy. Once she accomplished this task by defeating the [[Queen Metroid]], she found the [[Metroid Hatchling|Metroid Larva]] which hatched before her and mistook her for its mother. Rather than killing it, Samus took the creature with her.

In ''[[Metroid Fusion]]'', Samus led a [[Galactic Federation]] research team on the surface of SR388. While there, she encountered a mysterious, parasitic organism which entered her body. She later discovered that the organism was an X parasite, an organism which attacked living creatures and copied their DNA. The planet would later be destroyed when Samus changed the orbit of the [[Biologic Space Labs Research Station]] to impact it in an attempt to eradicate the X parasites.
