Zeta Metroids are Metroids which have hatched from their familiar infant eggs, and gone through the alpha and gamma stages of their life. Zeta Metroids are the third in a series of Metroid evolution including [[Alpha Metroid]]s, [[Gamma Metroid]]s, Zeta Metroids and [[Omega Metroid]]s.


==Appearances==
'''Zeta Metroids''' are [[Metroid (species)|Metroids]] which have grown past their [[Alpha Metroid]] and [[Gamma Metroid]] forms. They are followed by [[Omega Metroid|Omega Metroids]] and, if the Metroid has the proper genetic coding, [[Queen Metroid|Queen Metroids]]. Zeta Metroids attack by firing projectiles and by ramming.

{{Samus}} encounters three Zeta Metroids while on her mission to exterminate the Metroids on [[SR388]]. She can defeat them by firing twenty [[Missile|Missiles]] at their head or back.


===''Metroid II: Return of Samus''===
In Metroid Fusion onboard the {{BSL station}}, Samus finds a single Zeta Metroid in a stasis tank in the [[Restricted Laboratory]]. This one is not battled.
==Manual==

''[[Metroid II: Return of Samus]]'' marked the first appearance of the Zeta Metroid.


===''Metroid Fusion''===
==Gallery==
In ''[[Metroid Fusion]]'', the Galactic Federation holds a top secret program which tries to breed Metroids of all kinds. While a Zeta Metroid is seen in a stasis pod, Samus never faces any.
