| Khuutra said: In fairness, the Metroids in Prime were all on one frigate, which is the one that crashed on Tallon IV. They were the ones that were evacuated from Zebes before Samus tore the whole place a new ass. I kind of forget where they were supposed to come from in the other two games but I believe Dark Samus had something to do with it - since Dark Samus was a Metroid that had become a Leviathan Guardian, it makes sense that she could spawn Phazon-based Metroids. |
See, i resolved the issue of the origin of Metroids in my head, between Fusion's testimony and Prime's.
Metroid Prime (the creature itself) was the original Metroid, not a Metroid that became a Leviathan. The Chozo encountered this beast on Tallon IV, but in turn saw that it could be useful, and bred the race of Metroids off of that template for use in combatting the threat of the X Parasites that they encountered on SR388.
I doubt that the other Metroids were bred straight off Dark Samus, since they were called Tallon Metroids, i imagine they were meant to be of the stock bred on Tallon IV
Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.
