'''Phazon Corruption''' is a state that any living organism can go through if exposed to too much [[Phazon]]. It is most likely to happen when wearing a [[Phazon Enhancement Device Suit|Phazon Enhancement Device]] and misusing its devastating power. Corruption happens to living organisms, even vegetation, causing aggressiveness combined with raw power.
'''Phazon Corruption''' is a state that any living bioform can go through if exposed to too much [[Phazon]] radiation. It is most likely to occur when one is wearing a [[Phazon Enhancement Device Suit|Phazon Enhancement Device]] and misusing or abusing its devastating power. Corruption infects living organisms and even vegetation on contact causing aggressiveness combined with raw power and a hunger for more Phazon. Phazon can also eat away at deceased bioforms, similar to that of decomposition.

[[Hypermode]] is a state in which an organism can amplify themselves and their weaponry with Phazon intentionally with a Phazon Enhancement Device. This form can be manually activated and deactivated at will by the user. However, if one remains in Hypermode for an extended period of time without venting Phazon levels, the user will become Corrupted and will have a limited amount of time to deplete all Phazon, through weapons or excretory means. If the Phazon is not fully rid from the victim's body, the organism will become permanently Corrupted, and therefore become extremely aggressive with power.  
[[Hypermode]] is a state in which an organism can amplify themselves and their weaponry with Phazon intentionally with a Phazon Enhancement Device (PED). This form can be manually activated and deactivated at will by the user. However, if one remains in Hypermode for an extended period of time without venting Phazon levels, the user will become Corrupted and will have a limited amount of time to deplete all Phazon, through weapons or excretory means. If the Phazon is not fully rid from the victim's body, the organism will become permanently Corrupted, and therefore become extremely aggressive with power. If one's Hypermode system is unable to be shut down but has not become permanently corrupted, then an auto-vent will ensue at twenty seconds of use. The auto-vent does not inflict any harm on one with the PED suit except the venting of energy tanks, which is normal in the use of the Hypermode function.
