Varia Suit
The Varia Suit is one of Samus Aran's many Chozo-created suits, and is usually the second suit to be obtained, however, in some games like Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, she starts off with this suit. It offers a higher level of shielding than the basic Power Suit, and prevents Samus from taking damage in extreme heat and acid. Its name delivers from a mistranslation of the word "Barrier".

Metroid
In the first game, the Varia Suit can be obtained in Brinstar. Its effects are reducing damage by 50%.
Metroid II: Return of Samus
In the first Metroid, the Varia Suit was just a Pink variation of the Power Suit. However, Metroid II was in the original gameboy, and the only way to differ the Varia Suit was changing its design; which created how the Varia suit is seen today. Its effects in the game are reducing damage by 50%, and it also increases movement speed.
Super Metroid
The Varia Suit is obtained after defeating Kraid. It was in Super Metroid that the Varia Suit gained its Heat-proof traits. It reduces damage by 50%, and stops damage from superheated areas.
Metroid Fusion
The Varia Suit reduces damage by 40%, and also resists damage from areas with intense heat or cold. It also makes possible to absorve the Blue X Parasites.
Metroid: Zero Mission
Like in the first game, the Varia Suit is obtained in Brinstar. It resists intense heat, reduces damage by 20%, and also resists damage from Bomb Parasites and acid.
Metroid Prime
Received after defeating Flaahgra, the Varia Suit reduces damage by 20%, and, like in Super Metroid, stops damage from superheated areas.
Metroid Prime: Hunters, Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
Samus starts with the Varia Suit, and it doesn't provides any damage resistance. In Prime 2 and Prime 3, it is replaced by another suit later.
