The '''Blastcap''' is a creature native to [[Tallon IV]]. Blastcaps are weeds that often grow in small clusters and will rattle in warning when anything approaches. The fungal cap, which is filled with toxins, will detonate if {{samus}} comes in contact with it, or if she fires upon it repeatedly. The resulting explosion and venomous fumes will cause damage. Even the flesh of the weed itself is poisonous, keeping it from being eaten by indigenous lifeforms.

Blastcaps vary in size and thrive in moist areas like [[Tallon Overworld]], but are versatile enough to survive in drier conditions like those of [[Chozo Ruins]].
