Little Birdie Main article: Little Birdie Ridley's life-cycle consists of at least 3 stages. Here, he is killed by a Queen Metroid and sapped of energy. Upon defeat, the severely damaged Ridley once again retreats. This shell can only be destroyed by Samus's Super Missiles. After taking enough damage, Ridley will hide in a black shell. Ridley uses his tail to dive down towards Samus and uses his Plasma Breath to attack her. Even an attack only before used by Ridley in a scene from Brawl's Subspace Emissary, where he drags Samus across a wall, is used here. Throughout the battle, Ridley uses many attacks seen elsewhere in the Metroid series. Before she can come to his aid, however, Ridley pushes Anthony into a large pool of lava. Her suit is deactivated, leaving her exposed, but Anthony distracts Ridley long enough to allow Samus to regain her focus. The realization that the creature they had been tracking was indeed Ridley shocks Samus, leaving her physically and emotionally paralyzed. She later finds the creature Ridley, in its adult form, in a room with Anthony. She finds the shed skin of the Mystery Creature attached to a wall, leading her to believe that the creature has changed once more. She is, however, obstructed from her path, and later finds another shed skin of Ridley. Adam Malkovich orders Samus to follow the escaped creature. The Mystery Creature escapes to Sector 3 of the Bottle Ship. Samus fights the creature and manages to damage it with help from Anthony's Plasma Cannon. This creature is one possible cause of Lyle Smithsonian's death. This more threatening creature is known as the Mystery Creature. The Little Birdie later sheds its skin, revealing a much larger creature. Samus hypothesizes that the Little Birdie form used the power of other predators to capture its own prey, and begins considering the possibility that it's dangerous, but moves on without destroying it. After defeating the Kihunters in the nest, the creature appears, devouring the fallen enemies. Later, after venturing through parts of the Bottle Ship, Samus battles King Kihunter. When Samus first encounters the infant Ridley, she doesn't recognize the creature as a threat and leaves it alone. Samus meets Ridley in a small, seemingly harmless form known as Little Birdie, who had, unbeknownst to her, mutilated one of the researchers that had raised it when it escaped. He was cloned accidentally when the Galactic Federation gathered DNA from cell fragments attached to Samus's suit in an attempt to recreate the extinct Metroid species for use as illegal bioweapons. Through this Ridley, Samus and the Federation learn of the bio-form's life cycle. Though the Ridley that was Samus's nemesis was killed at Norfair, a clone of him appears again in Metroid: Other M. Ridley is killed in this battle, though his legacy continues to haunt Samus in different forms. He is the fourth and final boss needed to open the path to Tourian. Much later, Samus encounters him again in the depths of Norfair. He appears much larger than his previous form and has many more attacks in Super Metroid. He escapes after a brief duel, reborn in an organic form with no sign of the enhancements present in the Prime series. He slaughters the scientists, but not before they send out a distress signal, which Samus responds to in time to witness Ridley stealing the last Metroid. Ridley was revived once more, as Proteus Ridley, he ambushed Samus at SR388 as she is leaving the planet, attempting to steal the Metroid Hatchling, but is subdued by the Bounty Hunter.Īfter his battle with Samus on SR388, Ridley once again turns his attention to the Metroid Hatchling that Samus entrusted to the scientists of the Ceres Space Colony. Metroid: Samus Returns Main article: Proteus Ridley Samus engages Omega Ridley in battle in the Pirate Homeworld Leviathan Core and emerges victorious. Through severe Phazon exposure, the Leviathan mutates Ridley into a new, powerful form known as Omega Ridley, and compels him to act as the core's guardian. He makes his way to the Space Pirate Homeworld, where a Leviathan impacts and lures Ridley into its core. He engages Samus in combat on Norion, but is defeated when she exploits a weakness in his unprotected mouth. Meta Ridley was revived once again after his defeat on Tallon IV, outfitted with a new, durable armorskin, and leads a Space Pirate attack on planet Norion, a Galactic Federation outpost. Metroid Prime 3: Corruption Main article: Omega Ridley
