Who are Kraid and Ridley?
Kraid and Ridley are Mother Brain’s two flunkies, and you always have to fight them at some point in the game before you get to Mother Brain. Kraid is a big fat ugly lizard, and Ridley is a cool and supremely nasty dragon. Super Metroid introduced more mini-bosses to the Space Pirates’ roster, such as Crocomire, Draygon, and Phantoon.
