A '''Core-X''' is a type of [[X-Parasite]] typically found in creatures more powerful than those inhabited by weaker X.  This X will remain intact even after Samus defeats its host due to a hard shell that can only be cracked with [[Missile|missiles]]. Once Samus breaks through the shell, she may absorb the X regaining one of her latent abilities in the process.
