Zeta Metroid from Metroid II
[edit] Battle Tactics
The Zeta Metroid is much quicker and more maneuverable than its last form. You can no longer cause damage by firing missiles from underneath; only from the creature's front and behind. The Metroid will spit damaging fluid from its mouth, so firing at it from behind would be more favorable. But this creature is constantly using this strategy against you, and will try and swoop behind you many times. If you're in a wide open space with no ledges, it is easy to get back behind the creature by rolling into the morph ball and going under it as it erratically hovers around in the air. 20 missiles are required to destroy a Zeta Metroid.
Samus Aran encountered Zeta Metroids during her mission to SR388.
