The Golden Torizo is a Torizo that Samus Aran encounters in Ridley's Lair on planet Zebes. Compared to the Bomb Torizo that Samus encountered earlier in her mission, the Golden Torizo is stronger and more intelligent. As well as being able to spew fireballs at Samus (like the weaker version), it can also use energy waves and boulders as weapons. Normal Missiles are ineffective against the Golden Torizo, who will simply turn to the side and dodge them; Super Missiles are not entirely effective either, as the Golden Torizo usually grabs them and throws them back at Samus, however it can only hold one Super Missile at a time so a barrage of missiles could damage it. The charge beam is also highly effective and the golden torzio cannot grab a charged shot. The Golden Torizo starts out gold, but gradually gets duller until it is colored brown much like the original Bomb Torizo. Upon defeating the Golden Torizo, Samus will be rewarded with the Screw Attack.
