'''Metroids''' are feared parasitic organisms created by the [[Chozo]], with the ability to leech the life energy from living organisms. As explained in the [[Metroid Manga]], they were created in order to eliminate a more menacing parasitic organism native to SR388, the [[X Parasite|X]]. They have been the overall focus of the entire [[Metroid (series)|''Metroid'' series]] in general. Metroids also appeared as Assist [[Trophy|Trophies]] in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
