'''Zazabi-X''' is the second [[:Category:Bosses|boss]] [[Samus Aran|Samus]] encounters aboard the [[Biologic Space Laboratories Research Station|B.S.L Research Station]] which orbits [[SR388]], the setting of ''[[Metroid Fusion]]''. It guards the [[High Jump Boots|High Jump]] ability ''(which in the Gameboy Advance [[Metroid (series)|Metroid]] games also includes the [[Spring Ball]] ability)''.

Its form resembles a [[Wikipedia:Medusa (biology)|Medusa]] or a mobile [[Wikipedia:Sea Anemone|sea anemone]], but of a size much larger than any found on Earth. It has a large, cyclopean eye, and a translucent pinkish-purple body lined with tentacles and what appear to be teeth.

Somewhat strangely, there is no information either in-game or related media in regards to the species the [[X Parasite]] is mimicking when in this form, apart from the assumed name ''Zazabi''. It is possible that it is a conglomeration of several species custom built by the X, as seen exhibited in [[Aqua Pirate|Aqua Pirates]], but there is little knowledge as to which creatures may be combined.


==The Battle==
===Attacks===

[[File:Zazabi.png|left|thumb|175px|'''Zazabi-X''' executing its Parachute Trap attack, while exposing its weak point.]]'''Stomp''': A basic attack which takes advantage of the creature's contact damage. '''Zazabi-X''' will jump across the room, landing harshly in an attempt to crush Samus with its mass.

'''Parachute Trap''': '''Zazabi-X''' is able to leap incredibly high and position itself above Samus, opening what is presumably its mouth to act as a parachute as it falls. Should [[Samus Aran|Samus]] be in its shadow when it lands, it will 'swallow' her whole. Samus can only counter this by laying [[Morph Ball Bomb]]s while in [[Morph Ball]] mode, which will allow her to escape in a similar manner as when trapped by a [[Metroid (species)|Metroid]]. It is also during this attack in which '''Zazabi-X''' reveals its 'weak spot', and opens itself to being damaged.

The jumping abilities of Zazabi-X's attacks may be the reason why its [[Core-X]] restores Samus's [[High Jump Boots|High Jump]] ability.

===Defences===

Zazabi-X is impossible to harm from the outside, as presumably its skin is incredibly resiliant to firepower. Should it be damaged, it is also able to "shed" its damaged parts in order to continue battle for as long as possible.

===Weaknesses===

During its ''Parachute Trap'' attack, Zazabi-X reveals its vulnerable insides in an attempt to "swallow" Samus. When this attack is attempted, it can be damaged by firing [[Missile]]s or [[Charge Beam]]s into its gaping maw. This must be repeated until all its shell has been shed.

===Core-X===

Being a [[:Category:Bosses|boss creature]], Zazabi-X reveals, upon defeat, a Core-X. As the ability guarded is not a beam upgrade, the Core-X revealed will attempt only to ram Samus, having no projectile attacks. It is, however, only able to be damaged by [[Missile]]s or the [[Charge Beam]].

==Trivia==

*'''Zazabi-X''' is one of only two enemies in ''[[Metroid Fusion]]'' for which there is no non-X equivalent known or suspected. The other is [[Yakuza-X]].
*It is theorized that '''Zazabi-X''''s ability to jump incredibly high is the reason for its Core-X holding the key to Samus's [[High Jump Boots|High Jump]] and [[Spring Ball]] abilities. This theme can be seen in several other bosses in ''[[Metroid Fusion]]''; the boss having a variant of the ability to be recovered ''(this is comparable to the similar convention in [[Metroid Prime 2: Echoes]], in which [[Ing]] have possessed [[Samus Aran|Samus's]] abilities and use them against her)''.

-'''Zazabi''', or '''Zazabi-X''', is a plant-like creature found on [[Sector 2 (TRO)]] of the [[Biologic Space Labs Research Station|B.S.L research station]]. It consists of a head with several appendages, several small sections of body formed into rings, and a suction cup with several sharp teeth at its bottom. Zazabi was one of many creatures on the research station that was infected by the X, though this one was infected by a more powerful [[Core-X]].
+'''Zazabi-X''' is the second [[:Category:Bosses|boss]] [[Samus Aran|Samus]] encounters aboard the [[Biologic Space Laboratories Research Station|B.S.L Research Station]] which orbits [[SR388]], the setting of ''[[Metroid Fusion]]''.

-Zazabi's attacks consist of jumping back and forth while trying to collide with [[Samus Aran|Samus]] and sucking her into itself so it can drain her life. It typically jumps back and forth several times, and then attempts to land directly on top of Samus, trapping her inside. If Samus is trapped, she can drop [[Morph Ball Bomb]]s to free herself. Zazabi's outer body is impervious to damage, so Samus can only damage it when it attempts to trap her. She fires [[Missile]]s or the [[Charge Beam]] inside the hole, damaging it.
-As Samus damages Zazabi, parts of it will be destroyed, causing it to partially collapse. After destroying all the middle segments and critically damaging the head, Samus reveals Zazabi's [[Core-X]]. Once Samus defeats and absorbs the Core-X, she acquires both the [[Spring Ball]] and the [[Hi-Jump Boots|Hi-Jump ability]].
