'''Draygon''' is the main boss of [[Maridia]], a region on Planet [[Zebes]], and is one of the four bosses that are required to be defeated to gain access to [[Tourian]] during the events of ''[[Super Metroid]]''. The beast resembles a crustacean with a hard outer shell. Draygon is a fully matured [[Evir]] and even produces hatchlings of the same species, indicating that the monster is a female, unless she is similar to terrestrial seahorses in breeding. The method for defeating the boss is for [[Samus Aran|Samus]] to aim [[Missile]]s and [[Super Missile]]s at her vulnerable underbelly.  Alternatively, she may intentionally be grabbed by the creature and fire her [[Grapple Beam]] at the remains of turrets (optionally destroyed by Samus in the moments before the fight) on the wall. By causing herself minimal damage, Samus can effectively electrocute Draygon in a matter of seconds.

==Strategy==
In order to defeat Draygon, [[Samus Aran|Samus]] must aim [[Missile]]s and [[Super Missile]]s at her vulnerable underbelly.  Alternatively, she may intentionally allow herself to be grabbed by the creature, and fire her [[Grapple Beam]] at the remains of the damaged turrets (optionally destroyed by Samus in the moments before the fight) on the wall. In this way, Samus can effectively electrocute Draygon in a matter of seconds while incurring minimal damage to herself.
 
Through the use of glitches and/or cheating, Samus can obtain the Plasma Beam and X-Ray Scope early. After firing a fully charged shot from the Plasma Beam, Samus can activate the X-Ray Scope repeatedly, causing multiple damaging strikes. In so doing, Draygon will technically be defeated with one shot, as demonstrated [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tj0VybUH6ZY here].

*The method for defeating Draygon with electricity is similar to the [[Grapple Guardian|Grapple Guardian's]] method of defeat.
