This list will obviously contain spoilers. Specific locations are only provided
for hard to find creatures.
The RED ENTRY guide is below these lists, and it contains the vital entries which
can only be obtained at one point in the game.

06) Large Energy(red): various

the pipes.
05) Pulse Bombu: The yellow and blue energy balls found in Phendrena Drifts.
06) Ice Shriekbat: In Phendrena's Ice Ruins West you'll find some of these guys if
you travel on the roof tops. Be ready to scan because they suicide bomb you with
great speed. These do NOT reappear later, so get them the first time.
07) Parasite Queen: Only available in the Space Pirate Frigate (it's the boss).
08) Scarab: These are the small explosive monsters that swarm the tunnels of the
Chozo Ruins.

16) Tangle Weed: Found in the Chozo Ruins and Tallon Overworld (the white variety)
17) Flying Pirate: Found in various places (especially later in the game). The first
ones are found in the Tallon Overworld next to the crashed ship.
18) Hive Mecha: This only appears when you're fighting for your first pack of
missiles. You have to look down under the water to get the creature scan
(not the part that you fire at). Don't forget to scan those Ram War Wasps as
well.
19) War Wasp: Found all over the Chozo Ruins.
20) Blood Flower: Found in the Tallon Overworld (it spits poisonous green balls).
21) Ice Beetle: Found in the Phendrena Drifts (after Thardus I believe).
22) Reaper Vine: Found in the Chozo Ruins, you'll have to look a little harder if you
pick this up late in the game.
23) Aqua Drone: Just like a security drone but underwater. Apparently these are only
found on your first trip through the crashed Frigate (Tallon Overworld). Don't
miss them (this is unverified, but better safe than sorry).
24) Ice Trooper: The white armored pirates in the Phazon Mines. There are some in
the room where you get the first Power Bombs (the Central Dynamo)
25) Sap Sac: The yellow sacs of explosive found all over the Tallon Overworld.
26) Flickerbat: The invisible flying creatures in the first major hub area of

29) Burrower: This species can be seen digging in the ground. Easily found through
out the beginning of Magmoor.
30) Plazmite: Found in at least two parts of the Chozo Ruins (they light up dark
rooms until you destroy them).
31) Barbed War Wasp: This can only be scanned while fighting the incinerator drone
early on for the bombs.
32) Flaahgra: The boss of the Chozo ruins.
33) Scatter Bombu: These tend to block tunnels in the Phendrena drifts. They are blue
energy spheres with smaller red spheres and emit 3 beams of electricity.
34) Space Pirate: As the game progresses, you'll find it more and more difficult to
find an ordinary Space Pirate. Scan this one early on (or find them in the
beginning of the Phazon mines).
35) Parasite: Can only be scanned in the Space Pirate Frigate (they swarm the tunnels
after you beat the boss).
36) Tallon Crab: Swarms one tunnel near the beginning of the crashed Space Pirate
Frigate.
37) Blastcap: Mushrooms found all over the Chozo Ruins.
38) Aqua Sac: These are found in the crashed Space Pirate Frigate underwater. They
are light blue in color and explode upon being fired on.
39) Lumigek: Another swarming creature found in the first part of the impact crater.
40) Incinerator Drone: The boss that gaurds the bombs early in the game (don't forget
to scan the wasps in the room as well)
41) Eyon: Laser shooting eyes which are perched on walls in the Chozo Ruins.
42) Fission Metroid: Found in the impact crater.
43) Oculus: This creature can be found in vertical tube that you must exit through
after beating the boss in the Chozo Ruins. You can go back and get them any time
though.
44) Meta Ridley: You may die a few times when fighting him, don't forget to scan him
at the beginning of each try and make sure you scanned him before saving
afterwards.
45) Plasma Trooper: The Pirates with red markings that are only hurt by the Plasma
beam. Found in the Phazon Mines on level 3.
46) Aqua Pirate: These are underwater flying pirates. Find them in the crashed
Space Pirate Frigate.
47) Baby Sheegoth: These are found all over the Phendrena Drifts, but if you wait
until late in the game, you'll find that some of them are replaced by full grown
sheegoths.
48) Seedling: Found on the ceiling of the passage of Tallon Overworld that leads to
the Cradle/Temple.
49) Plated Beetle: The armored beetles with vulnerable red tail sections (abdomens)
that are found all over the Chozo Ruins.
50) Sheegoth: Most easily scanned in boss form as you fight for the wave beam, but
some medium sized Sheegoth can be scanned in Ice Ruins West later in the game.
51) Stone Toad: Found in the Chozo Ruins in two places. These are the creatures that
eat you when you roll up into a ball. One is found right after you get the bombs,
and the rest are located in the Reflecting Pool
52) Metroid: Found all over the Phazon Mines and Phendrena Drifts lab.
53) Venom Weed: Red colored weeds that impede movement and cause damage. These are
found in various places.
54) Phazon Elite: If I'm not mistaken, this is the smaller version of the Phazon
Mines boss and it can only be fought once (it gaurds a Chozo Artifact).
55) Metroid Prime: This is Metroid Prime's second form.
56) Ice Burrower: Found in early Phendrena digging through the snow. They pop out of
the ground to attack. Get them ASAP since they vanish later in the game. You'll
come across them on your way to the boost ball (at the end of the "u-turn".
57) Flaahgrah Tentacle: I got this from LordDraconis's list, so I only assume this
is gotten during the Chozo Ruins boss fight.
58) Elite Pirate: These are found in the Phazon Mines. They are the ones with the
large Plasma cannons and standard bodies. I'm not sure if you ever have to
refight these so scan them the first time.
59) Omega Pirate: Phazon Mines boss. Scan away.
60) Puddle Spore: These are the large "lava clams" found in Magmoor.
61) Chozo Ghost: Found in many parts of the Chozo Ruins later in the game.
62) Thardus: The rock boss that you fight in the Phendrena Drifts.
63) Shriekbat: Found in the Chozo Ruins and early Magmoor (flying green bats that
charge you).
64) Hunter Metroid Found in the Phazon Mines, late Phendrena and while fighting the
very last boss.
65) Magmoor: Lava snake/dragon found in Magmoor Caverns.
66) Hive: Any time you see war wasps, there should be a war wasp hive. All over the
Chozo Ruins.
67) Metroid Prime: This is Metroid Prime's first form.
68) Shadow Pirate: Found in the Phendrena labs after the lights go out and in other
places.
69) Ram War Wasp: Can only be scanned while fighting the boss that gaurds the first
missile pack early in the game (don't forget to scan the boss machine as well).
70) Ice Parasite: In Phendrena look in the Chozo Ice Temple
71) Geemer: Hard-shelled red spiky creatures found in a few spots of the Tallon
Overworld. These are like zoomers only much more vicious looking.
72) Crystallite: Early Phendrena crawling organisms that have a large spike of ice
on their backs.
73) Plated Puffer: These are found only in the Chozo Ruins - Tower of Light. You must
start destroying the ceiling for these to begin appearing.
74) Power Trooper: Space Pirates wearing yellow power suit armor. They can be found
in various places in the Phazon Mines.
*****************
*RED ENTRY GUIDE*
*****************
The red entry guide lists, in order, the entries that can only be found at a
particular point in the game. Read the first entry and keep an eye out for it. Once
you fill it, immediately stop and read the next entry. Unfortunately, Metroid Prime
does not allow you to copy save files, so be careful that you do not save the game
at any point unless your red entries are completed up to that point.
01) Map hologram: scan this in the Space Pirate's Frigate *before* you get the map.
You can do this at any map station in the game, but it's best to remember now
since there are only a few others.
02) Fall of Zebes: (Pirate Data) this is in the Biohazard Containment room of the
Space Pirate Frigate in the beginning of the game (check your map for room names).
If you land on the planet Tallon IV without this Pirate Data, you cannot go back
for it.
03) Parasite Queen: Scan the Space Pirate Frigate boss before defeating it or you
won't have another chance (it'll make the fight a lot easier as well).
04) Parasite: These swarm the tunnels after the boss, but a few can be found just
before fighting the boss as well. Again, if you leave the Space Pirate Frigate
without scanning these creatures, you won't get another chance.
05) Hive Mecha and Ram War Wasps: This pair defends the first pack of missiles.
You'll have to scan under the water from the edge of the central platform to
get the Hive Mecha (scanning the red ports that you fire at does not work).
Don't forget to scan the Ram War Wasps and the Hive Mecha during the fight.
If you defeat this mini-boss without making these scans, you won't get another
chance at them.
06) Missile Blast Shield: As soon as you pick up your first pack of missiles (or
just before), you should scan the Missile Blast Shield. There are dozens of
other blast shields, but it is possible to destroy them all without scanning
any of them.
07) Locked Door: This is technically not a red entry, but it may be difficult to
track down later in the game. In the Energy Core Room, you'll see your first
locked door in the distance over the green water.
08) Barbed War Wasp and Incinerator Drones: Like the Hive Mecha and Ram War Wasps,
this boss fight is your only chance to scan these two creatures. There's no
special trick for this duo though. You'll encounter this fight just after the
Energy Core Room.
09) Flaagrah and Flaagrah Tentacles: These are both parts of the first major boss
in the Chozo Ruins. As with all bosses, this is your only chance to scan the
pair. You may die a few times while fighting this boss. Be sure to rescan
Flaagrah and its Tentacles each time you restart. The tentacles fill the four
bomb tubes at ground level.
10) Ice Burrower: These are found in early Phendrena. They'll be in a small cavern
with low ceilings digging through the snow. The location is connected to the
Phendrena Shorelines (hub) location, but you'll have to take the long way around
to get to it the first time (since you won't have Space Jump Boots). They look
just like ordinary Burrowers (they jump out of the ground and spit rocks at you
before diving back under the snow). Get them while you can since they are
replaced by Security Drones later in the game. Thanks to "Joe" for the heads up.
11) Stalactite: Their are quite a few stalactites in Phendrena and Magmoor, but
it is possible to dislodge all of them without scanning one first. The first
stalactite is in the Ice Ruins West portion of Phendrena Drifts. You'll need
the space jump to destroy it, but it can be scanned from the ground level.
12) Ice Shriekbat: After you scan that stalactite, you should see a cave to its
left. If you have the Space Jump Boots, jump into the cave with your scan visor
turned on. Do not step forward or the bunch of Ice Shriekbats will suicide
attack you. They are in the distance perched under an overhanging ceiling. Scan
them before moving forward because they move very quickly in flight. I'm not
sure when they stop appearing here either. It's possible that they never
reappear after they are killed (by your bullets or their suicide attack), so be
sure and get them when you first see them. If you do not have the Space Jump
Boots yet, look upward and toward the Wave Beam door from the entrance area of
the Ice Ruins West. You should be able to see the overhanging ceiling from this
point for a safer and earlier scan.
13) Ice Parasite: After getting the Space Jump Boots, you'll have to enter the Chozo
Ice Temple. This location contains two variety of creature that crawl on the
blocks. One is common and can be found all over Phendrena, the other is the rare
Ice Parasite. After you get the Wave Beam, this creature vanishes so scan them now.
14) Thardus: This is the boss composed of rocks in Phendrena Drifts. As with all bosses,
this is your only chance, and be sure that you rescan it each time you die and
restart the fight. Double check to make sure you got the previous three entries
since I'm practically certain that beating Thardus (if not before then) will end
your chance to scan them.
15) Aqua Drone: After you obtain the Gravity Suit and you begin exploring the Space
Pirates Frigate underwater, keep an eye out for Aqua Security Drones. They appear
just like ordinary security drones, but only on your first run through the Space
Pirate Frigate.
16) Elite Pirate: The elite pirates are rather difficult to miss since they are such
an intimidating foe. Though you do get to fight about three of them during the
game, they do not reappear, so be sure to scan one of them.
17) Phazon Elite: After you get Power Bombs, you can reclaim a Chozo Artifact from this
guy near the beginning of the Phazon Mines (though it's a bit out of the way at
this point). He looks just like the Omega Pirate (Phazon Mines boss) but he's the
size of an ordinary Elite Pirate. This is not a second (or first) chance to get the
Omega Pirate boss entry, this is a separate entry.
18) Omega Pirate: This is the Phazon Mines boss. As with all bosses, don't forget to
scan him each time you die and restart.
19) Meta Ridley: You're almost done here! Again, don't forget to rescan Ridley each time
you fight him.
20) Metroid Prime: The end of your logbook. There's no point in approaching Prime with
the intent to scan unless the rest of your logbook is filled. Make sure you get the
Lumigek and Fission Metroids, which live in the impact crater after the final save
point (though you can scan them and go back to save). During the fight, make sure
that you scan BOTH FORMS of Metroid Prime. If you're reading this guide as a spoiler
(shame on you), you'll know Prime's second form when you see it, since it looks
completely different from his first form.
21) Metroid Prime: Just to be redundant, don't forget to scan Prime's second form.
*********************
*ITEM LOCATION NOTES*
*********************
First of all, this guide will necessarily contain a lot of spoiler information related
to the different items that you can pick up in the game and the different areas you
visit. However, there are no storyline spoilers.
The guide provides details about what power-ups you'll need to get various
non-esential items, and where to get them. If you must already have an item before
you enter a room, then that item will not be listed as a needed item for obtaining the
hidden item. So "nothing needed" means that when you first encounter the room you
should be able to get the item. I intentionally didn't go into great depth when
explaining some of the expansions. Between your different visors and the "humming"
sound that power-ups make, you should be able to secure most of the items on the room
name alone.
