| '''Zoomers''' are creatures native to [[Zebes]] and [[Tallon IV]]. These creatures can be found throughout the ''[[Metroid (series)|Metroid]]'' series. | |
| | |
| They are small creatures that are relatively insignificant, as they do not willfully attack [[Samus Aran|Samus]] and simply walk in a set path. Zoomers are related to the slightly larger, red [[Geemer]]. | |

| |
| Zoomers appear in ''[[Metroid (game)|Metroid's]]'' [[Brinstar]]. Their behavior is similar to many other enemies, such as [[Moheek]] or [[Tsumuri]]. Zoomers walk forward in a path and will follow that path indefinitely. They are one of the most feeble creatures on [[Zebes]] and can be killed with few shots of Samus's [[Power Beam]].

| [[Tallon IV]] Zoomers are not very different from Zebesian Zoomers. These Zoomers are pictured as more gray, but their behavior is similar to their predecessors. They pace back and forth or in a circle, clinging to walls or ceilings if they please.
| |
| | |
| These Zoomers were among the species studied by [[Space Pirate]]s for use in [[Phazon]] experimentation on their research frigate [[Frigate Orpheon|''Orpheon'']].

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *In the original ''[[Metroid (game)|Metroid]]'', if a block is destroyed while a Zoomer is on it, it will float and circle rapidly in one area.
| |
| *Yellow Zoomers are the first enemies encountered in ''[[Metroid (game)|Metroid]]'' and, in turn, the entire ''[[Metroid (series)|Metroid series]]''.
| |
| *There is a similar enemy in ''Super Metroid'' and ''[[Metroid Fusion]]'' known as the [[Owtch]].
| |
| *The name Zoomer is a mistranslation of {{hover|ジーマ|Jīma}}. After the first game (excluding the Prime series where the name is {{hover|ズーマー|Zūmā}} and Zero Mission,) it is translated correctly as [[Geemer]].
