Dark Grenchlers are much darker in color and their spikes are sharper and shaped more like spines thier main horn also has a bluish tint to it. the grapple guardian. Some people belive that the Grapple Guardian is an adult Dark Grenchler.

When hunting, a Grenchler hides and then springs onto prey when it draws near. Grenchlers are amphibious, and can both jump to impressive heights and swim in pursuit of [[Samus Aran|Samus]] or other prey. The Grenchler has two main attacks: it can both bite and fire an electrical blast at Samus. The beast has one weak spot, which is caused by a genetic defect. That is, its back armor is vulnerable to explosive weaponry. Once its armor is gone, its exposed flesh can be targeted by Samus.<ref name="Logbook"/>


Many people belive that the Grapple Guardian is the adult Grenchler due to the fact that it si about the same size as the dead Grenchlers in the beging of the game. The Grapple Guardian was possessed by an Ing who had the Grapple beam power up. It appears as a large Dark Grenchler with a blue horn one large eye and hair like spikes.
Grenchlers are reptilian, bipedal lizards with armor and horns. The Grenchlers are gray, have a red underbelly, and a blue tongue. There are nine eyes on either side of their heads: eight on the upper jaw, and one on the lower jaw. They have several horns: one on their snout, two on the back of their head, and a large amount of spikes on their back armor. This makes the Grenchler very similar to [[Baby Sheegoth]]s in appearance and attacks.

===battle===
The Grapple Guardian will charge at Samus so you should shoot at its eye. Once this is done enough it will fire the grapple beam at samus if you can get it to fire the beam at one of the electrical pillars it will become stuned and you can attack its back. After it has lost enough health it will lose its shell and it will create a force feild for its self. you can temeraily disable it by shooting at its eye giving Samus just enough time to fire a charge shot at its weak point.

Grenchlers are water-based hunters native to Torvus Bog. These powerful predators have impressive natural might and are extremely aggressive.

Properties[edit | edit source]

When hunting, a Grenchler hides and then springs onto prey when it draws near. Grenchlers are amphibious, and can both jump to impressive heights and swim in pursuit of Samus or other prey. The Grenchler has two main attacks: it can both bite and fire an electrical blast at Samus. The beast has one weak spot, which is caused by a genetic defect. That is, its back armor is vulnerable to explosive weaponry. Once its armor is gone, its exposed flesh can be targeted by Samus.[1]

Grenchlers are reptilian, bipedal lizards with armor and horns. The Grenchlers are gray, have a red underbelly, and a blue tongue. There are nine eyes on either side of their heads: eight on the upper jaw, and one on the lower jaw. They have several horns: one on their snout, two on the back of their head, and a large amount of spikes on their back armor. This makes the Grenchler very similar to Baby Sheegoths in appearance and attacks.
