This article is about the Pirate Commandos from Metroid Prime 2: Echoes. For the similar enemy from Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, see Commando Pirate.

Commandos are armed with an energy scythe, pulse cannons, and an EMP grenade launcher. Pirate Commandos can also temporarily generate a shield that can deflect nearly all attacks.[1]

Samus encounters Pirate Commandos twice in Metroid Prime 2, first in Torvus Bog where she was attacked by a pair of Commandos. Later in Sanctuary, Samus is attacked by a large group of Commandos. Dark Pirate Commandos, which are Commandos possessed by Hunter Ing,[2] are encountered far more often in Echoes.

First Location: Torvus Bog - Torvus Grove
Dedicated to "hunting the Hunter," Space Pirate Commando units have been equipped with the latest weapons, including a variable pulse cannon, e-grenade launcher, and energy scythe. Powerful thrusters carry them at high speed over any terrain. A portable barrier shield repels most attacks, but can only be deployed for limited periods.[1]
