==Metroids==
Jellyfish like creatures that latch their mandibles onto pray and suck out their life for food. Metroids have appeared in every [[:Category:Metroid|Metroid]] game, in various forms. They appear in different sizes and forms, but the most common are the original jellyfish-like ones.

In Super Metroid, all metroids except one (in a previous encounter, Samus "befriends" a baby metroid and eventually sets it free) are enemies of Samus. The baby metroid that Samus once found has also made its way to Planet Zebes and is now a full grown adult. It aids Samus in her fight with the final boss of the game.

==Shriek Bats/Skrees==
==Shriek Bats/Skrees==
Shriekbats are bat-like aerial creatures who hang upside-down from ceilings. They have an extremely high body temperature and are very territorial - if anything wanders into their territory they fly towards the intruder and explode. They have two large claws, and when they slam into the ground they shatter into flying shrapnel (traveling only a few spaces from where it explodes).

They have two large claws, and when they slam into the ground they scatter debris from drilling into the ground (traveling only a few spaces from point of impact).

Space pirates are the first units you encounter within Super Metroid.  They look like mechanical praying mantes with serrated arms.  They have the ability to shoot lasers and leap from wall to wall in small areas.
