Spore Spawn The Spore Spawn

Game(s) Super Metroid Weakness(es) Power Beam Missiles Location(s) Brinstar Rewards Super Missile

The Spore Spawn is a mini-boss that appears in Brinstar in Super Metroid. It slowly moves around the room, shaking down spores that damage Samus if she touches them, before pausing and opening its weak inner maw. At this point, Samus can fire her Power Beam or Missiles at it before it closes up again. As the battle goes on, the Spore Spawn will move more quickly, making it more difficult to avoid. However, if Samus rolls into her Morph Ball at the bottom of the room, it will be unable to touch her, although its spores still pose a threat. After defeating it, Samus may reach her first Super Missile expansion.

Trivia

• Through the use of sequence breaking, Samus can obtain Super Missiles early, allowing her to skip Sore Spawn entirely.
