Gooplot

The Metroid Dread Perfect Guide is a species found on ZDR in Metroid Dread.
==Description==
The Gooplot is a slimy creature first found in Dairon, although they can also be found in Burenia. These enemies attach their sticky purple bodies to walls; when Samus Aran approaches, they expose their red eyeball before launching themselves towards her. This is their only attack and it is susceptible to a Melee Counter. Its slimy exterior gradually diminishes with each jump, revealing a bright blue body underneath that is most noticeable in rooms of Dairon without power. If Samus dodges a Gooplot's launch attacks five times, it will die on impact.Torvus (TorvusBolt).

Gooplots will bounce off of fired Missiles that collide with them during their launch attack; repeating the process causes them to revert to X upon hitting the floor.Looygi Bros.

Several Gooplots can be seen suspended within tubes in the background of Dairon. Their eyes watch Samus as she passes.Looygi Bros. "14 Cool Details in Metroid Dread (Part 4)". YouTube.

After the X Parasite outbreak, all Gooplots become infected by the X, which also mimic their form in Hanubia during the final countdown. While the ordinary Gooplot's appearance and behavior remains unchanged, the X combine their DNA with multiple other creatures to create enhanced hybrids. This includes the Yamplot-X, which combines the Yampa's body with the Gooplot's slimy form and increased maneuverability, and the Gooshocker, which gives Gooplots the electric powers of Ground Shockers.
