</tabber>
==Summary==
Its exact origins are unknown due to multiple different stories of how it came be, but with each origin, it turns more heinous than the last... Its name is Phantoon, the first spirit/supernatural enemy in the Metroid timeline.
Original Origin: Phantoon was borne in the vessel that the Chozo had arrived in Zebes. Its "mother" was Mother Brain's evil soul, which Phantoon had became a manifestation of.
English Origin: Phantoon is a Space Pirate General that had joined the pirates because Mother Brain's brainwaves were so vile that it became an incredible food source for Phantoon.
Other M Origin: The Phantoon that is fought by Samus is merely a fraction of what the third dimension can hold. Apparently, Phantoon can also ascend to higher dimensions using an organ in its brain. It was brought to Zebes by the ancient Chozo, through their crashed vessel.
