Article on Metroid Wiki Dark Samus

Dark Samus (ダークサムス, Dākusamusu) is a character from the Metroid series, specifically the Metroid Prime games. She is a doppelganger of Samus Aran, created when the defeated Metroid Prime absorbed the Hunter's Phazon Suit after the final battle of Metroid Prime. The result was a phenomenally strong creature, with the same abilites as the real Samus, as well as powerful Phazon-based attacks. She has made appearances in the Super Smash Bros. series, specifically in Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Super Smash Bros. 4.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Dark Samus appears as a trophy and as a sticker. Additionally, a "Dark Samus" appears in Co-Op Event 7: Battle of the Dark Sides, though it is merely a blackened version of Samus and not her Phazon doppelganger. She teams up with Dark Link against the two players that plays as their light counterparts, Link as player one and Samus as player two.

A twin image of Samus, encountered near the beginning of Metroid Prime 2: Echoes. Dark Samus is identical to Samus in every way but color—she even uses similar attacks. There are many theories on the origin of Dark Samus, but none are proven. Dark Samus uses Phazon for energy and can absorb it to heal damage. Samus encounters Dark Samus a number of times.
GameCube: Metroid Prime 2: Echoes

The description is inaccurate as Dark Samus' suit is a warped version of hers, and her origins are known: she was reincarnated from Metroid Prime when it absorbed Samus' Phazon Suit at the end of the game.

Dark Samus appears as an Assist Trophy in these games. Her attacks involve firing her arm cannon and summoning Phazon tentacles from the ground. She also poses with her Arm Cannon in front of her face. Her design in this game is based on Metroid Prime 3: Corruption.

Dark Samus's color scheme is also the basis of one of Samus's alternate colors.
