Shriek Bats
Space Pirates
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.
Zoomers
File:SuperMetroid Creatures Zoomer.png 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.
