'''Pirate Grenadiers''' are [[Space Pirate|Space Pirates]] armed with an experimental grenade launcher.<ref name=Logbook>{{cite|he Space Pirates have begun to use an experimental energy grenade launcher in the field. The weapon is viewed as a mixed blessing to the Grenadier units: while the grenade launchers are powerful weapons, Grenadiers must leave their rifles behind to carry them. Fast-moving targets can close range on Grenadiers rendering their main weapon somewhat ineffective.|Logbook|Metroid Prime 2: Echoes}}</ref> The size of the launchers prevent Grenadiers carrying the scythes or beam weapons wielded by other Pirates; the launcher is also ineffective against nearby opponents.<ref name=Logbook></ref> At close range, the Grenadiers will resort to ramming. Due to the time it takes to charge the launcher [[Samus Aran|Samus]] can easily get out of the grenades' blast radius. Samus first encounters the Grenadiers in the Space Pirate base in [[Agon Wastes|Agon]] then later in the [[Temple Grounds]].
