Upon defeating [[Gandrayda]] on [[Space Pirate Homeworld]], Samus grabs the Grapple Voltage upgrade that Gandrayda drops. This upgrade can be used to either funnel in or exert energy through a Grapple Beam "string." Both can destroy enemies, by either removing any energy they require to live or by overloading them. It can also be used on certain terminals that either require energy to power up or are energized and need to be shut down. As Samus removes energy from targets, her [[energy]] fills up while releasing energy causes it to go down. Notably, Samus's energy can be exerted far quicker than it can be drawn in.

The Hyper Grapple functions as a stronger, [[Phazon]]-powered version of the Grapple Voltage. Samus uses the Phazon within her to power this powerful Grapple Beam. It allows Samus to exert and funnel Phazon from enemies and Phazon-based structures. This [[Hypermode]] addition is acquired after defeating the Phazon-infused behemoth, [[Omega Ridley]] in the [[Space Pirate Homeworld|Space Pirate Homeworld's]] [[Leviathan]]. The Hyper Grapple is necessary to advance to a [[portal]] between Space Pirate Homeworld and the Leviathan capable of opening [[wormhole]]s to the planet [[Phaaze]].

The Hyper Grapple becomes useful as Samus enters Phaaze. On Phaaze, Samus must keep the levels of Phazon in her body low; an easy way to accomplish this is by relieving her Phazon energy onto creatures using the Hyper Grapple. This is notably useful against the Phaaze-common [[Phaz-Ing]]s and those that can be grappled.
