Pirate Grenadiers are Pirate Troopers armed with an experimental grenade launcher.[1] 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.[1] At close range, the Grenadiers will resort to ramming. Due to the time it takes to charge the launcher, Samus can easily get out of the grenades' blast radius. Samus first encounters the Grenadiers in the Space Pirate base in Agon after the first battle with Dark Samus. They also appear Temple Grounds on the way to Torvus Bog, but they do not respawn on subseqent trips.
Along with the Aerotroopers, Pirate Grenadiers are the only space pirate varieties in Echoes that were not possessed by the Ing.
