Super Metroid/Enemies

For bosses please see Super Metroid/Bosses.

Zoomers
Zoomers are the basic enemy of the Metroid series (seen throughout all games). In Super Metroid, Zoomers are extremely easy to kill, slow, and a minor annoyance throughout the game.

Red Zoomer
Alternatively, a red version exists; labled an easter egg for it's strange behavior and how it does not affect gameplay at all.

Geemers
There is a common mixup between Zoomers and Geemers, in that Geemers are the upgaded version of Zoomers (in Metroid Prime Geemers have retractable spines) with a higher tolerance to firepower.
