Plated Puffer
From Metroid Wiki
Template:Enemy-infobox Plated Puffers are armored, poison gas filled organisms found on Tallon IV, though similar species are found on several different planets. They have no attacks, though if they are ruptured they will explode, releasing their poison gas in the process.[1] Samus cannot rupture Plated Puffers with most of her weapons, their armor can only be breached with Missiles. She encounters them in the Chozo Ruins.
Logbook
Trivia
- The Logbook suggests to use concussive weapons against Plated Puffers ("concussive weapons" usually refers to Morph Ball Bombs), however it is impractical to use Morph Ball Bombs against Plated Puffers as they can only harm Samus at close proximities.

Concussive weapons can still do the job, however. The gas within the Plated Puffer is just as deadly as that within their 'cousins'." — Logbook "Plated Puffer" (Metroid Prime)
