I was mad when I found out that the statue was X infected. One thing I hate about the X is that they take all powerful enemies they can and then they use them to turn on Samus! ALL (except SA-X and Ridley) ARE GOOD GUYS, IT'S JUST THAT THE X TOOK THEM AND MADE THEM ATTACK SAMUS!! Even A chozo statue?? Samus must've been angry at what the X have done to something related to in her Zero Missions! >:(=
this is no chozo statue, u see the real one and get charage beam out of it near the start of the game, thats a chozo statue. this is a weridy thingy with greenyness around it :3
Chozo Statues are actually living things. Well, sort of. So, were this thing not an X, it would have been totally possible for that thing to appear elsewhere on another planet.
anyone wondering how the x infected a statue needs to remember the Golden Torizo in super metroid. It's clearly a captured golden torizo that was killed by the x.
It could be considered an android, which of course has organic components...perfect for the X to kill....
This boss is reminiscent of Mother Brain. At least, to me. Nettori (golden statue) = Mother Brain. Man eating plants = acid. Spores = Rinkas. Lot of similarites, in my opinion.
I'm a Metroid fan and played the 1st 3 games, and don't get me wrong, this boss is interesting, weird, freaky, and the music adds to the freakiness, but all and all, this looks like a cop-out boss created at the last minute... to be honest this whole game, though it had cool aspects, was ALL about last-minute cop-outs, I think they could have done a better job...
To me, this boss reminds me of both a Chozo statue and the Spore Spawn (remember him?).
this is a good strategy: lay a power bomb and it will damage nettori a bit, but will also destroy any pollen. so then just start firing ice missiles into nettori until the pollen is about to hit u and continue repeating this.
NOTE: this is only good for the first phase, and always stay on the upper platform.
Lol if you stand on the very tip to the the right of the piller on the right the very left,flower thing ownt shoot...things at you so u can juts inload untill the plant core-Xstarts firin pierce lazers at you. :3
@InstantMix weird how the x came back to its original form after defeating the chozo duplicate form.... plus the prime series is non cannon and is destroyed in 3...
A quick tip if you decide to fight him again: try using Power Bombs to clear all the pollen out of the air. It damages the boss a little and it eliminates all the pollen for a short period of time. It makes it much easier to fight this boss without taking much damage.
Nettori

@NTHN34X It seems more likely that the X parasite infected the plantlife that ensnared the Chozo statue.

the original japanese name is nettori, there is no information of an english title.
it looks like a torizo, one of the guard beings used by the chozo.
its unknown if some have contol over vegetation, or if its the result of x-mutation

It's called Nettori.
It happens to be a torizo that mutated with both the X and the plants

It's real name(s) are: Nettori, "The Plant", Plasma Plant or Plant Core-X.

noel057 3 years ago
I did understand that, but i wanted to give out the actual name(s).
So i guess you just got me wrong. I did laugh at that, because Nettori DOES look like fighting Mother Brain -- well, in the opposite direction.
I could guess a much much more powerful version of Nettori could be what happened if Mother Brain was infected by the X.

Not bad, but not outstanding, either.

Overall, not a bad performance, though.

Another variation, is to stand on the pillar directly in front of the boss, and then shoot the plant then attack the pollen.
