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 species that live on SR388, and survive by latching onto other organisms and draining their energy with their gigantic teeth. 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. In ''Brawl'' and ''SSB4'', Metroids act the same as they do in the ''Metroid'' series, grabbing players and dealing damage. They can also phase through platforms, similar to a Phazon Metroid in ''Metroid Prime 3: Corruption''. The form most commonly depicted in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series is the Metroid larva~~, while the~~ fully-matured [[Queen Metroid]] (using its appearance from ''{{s|metroidwiki|Metroid: Other M}}'') ~~has~~ appeared as a ~~trophy~~.
