Elite Pirates are Space Pirates that have had Phazon infused with their DNA as part of a Space Pirate program called Project Helix.[1] Samus battles three in the Phazon Mines, though there were several in stasis that did not attack Samus. There are two, even more powerful, Elite Pirates present as well: the Phazon Elite and the Omega Pirate.

Elite Pirates attack by using Wave Quake Generators to create shock waves that spread out in a sizable radius and by siphoning the energy from beam weapons to fuel the plasma cannons kept on their shoulders.

After Samus enters Elite Control, the exits will become blocked with shields. The first Elite Pirate will break out of its stasis pod and attack. While dodging its shock waves Samus may use her Thermal Visor to target its plasma cannon allowing her to destroy it. This enables her to stay outside of the range of all of its attacks.

A second Elite Pirate is fought shortly after Samus collects the Power Bombs. Then a third shortly after Samus returns to the Phazon Mines after collecting several upgrades, this one does not have a plasma cannon.
