Metroids first appeared in ''{{b|Metroid|game}}'' as an enemy and played a crucial part in the game's storyline. Metroids have also appeared in every ''Metroid'' game since except for ''{{s|metroidwiki|Metroid Prime Hunters}}''. Metroids are a parasitic species that use their gigantic teeth to drain energy from their prey. Their greatest weakness is cold, so [[Samus]] can destroy them with her {{s|metroidwiki|Ice Beam}} or {{s|metroidwiki|Ice Missiles}}. The only way for Samus to shake off a Metroid is to drop a {{b|bomb|Samus}} while in her {{s|metroidwiki|Morph Ball}} form, which deals damage and detaches it from her. | Metroids first appeared in ''{{b|Metroid|game}}'' as an enemy and played a crucial part in the game's storyline.

Metroids are native to the planet {{s|metroidwiki|SR388}}, but their parasitic nature makes them a constant target for Samus' archenemies, the {{s|metroidwiki|Space Pirates}}; they introduced Metroids as invasive species to other planets, such as {{s|metroidwiki|Zebes}} and {{s|metroidwiki|Tallon IV}}. Samus was eventually commissioned by the {{s|metroidwiki|Galactic Federation}} to travel to SR388 and put them into extinction, although she spared [[metroidwiki:Metroid Hatchling|a single hatchling]] that imprinted on her. She returned this specimen to the {{s|metroidwiki|Ceres Space Colony}} for research, where it was subsequently stolen by [[Ridley]]; after retreating to the Space Pirate base on Zebes, it was eventually killed by [[Mother Brain]], seemingly leading to the species' total extinction. | Metroids are native to the planet {{s|metroidwiki|SR388}}, but their parasitic nature makes them a constant target for Samus's archenemies, the {{s|metroidwiki|Space Pirates}}; they introduced Metroids as invasive species to other planets, such as {{s|metroidwiki|Zebes}} and {{s|metroidwiki|Tallon IV}}.

However, Samus's actions caused the Metroid's prey, the {{s|metroidwiki|X Parasite}}s, to multiply and thrive once more. After being infected by an X Parasite, the Federation saved her life by injecting her with the {{s|metroidwiki|Vaccine "Metroid"}}, which was created using the hatchling. In addition to saving her life, this also gave her body Metroid-like characteristics, such as immunity to X Parasites and weakness to cold temperatures. During her mission at the infested {{s|metroidwiki|Biologic Space Labs Research Station}}, she discovered that the Galactic Federation had begun a Metroid breeding program. Upon this discovery, she set the ship's path to SR388, destroying the last remaining Metroids upon impact. | However, Samus's actions caused the Metroid's prey, the {{s|metroidwiki|X Parasite}}s, to multiply and thrive once more.
