Finding power-ups

To get the leftover items from the enemies you have defeated easily, hold A and they will float directly to you.

Whenever you are near a power-up, you can hear a pulsating noise. Go to where the sound seems at its loudest and check the area with your Scan and X-ray visors. This will usually help pinpoint its location. All power-ups make this noise, including Chozo Artifacts.

Get unreachable power-ups

If energy or ammunition is out of your reach, aim and charge your beam. The energy or ammunition will come to you.

Charging any arm cannon weapon will attract energy and missile ammunition to you. However, different weapons have different reaches. The default Power Beam seems to have the furthest reach, while the Wave Beam seems to have the weakest. Keep this in mind when some power-ups do not seem to come to you while using this technique.

Morph Ball

Go to the Chozo Ruins via the elevator. Then, go to the shrine and follow the passages until you get to the center room, where you will see the Morph Ball power-up. When you jump down the ledge, a wall rises up to block you and about ten beetles will burrow up. Defeat these with your Power Beam and get into scan mode just after you kill the last beetle. An intermission sequence featuring a plated beetle burrowing up (the Boss) will start. Scan it quickly by locking on to it and enter combat mode. Lock on to it and press B to dodge. Keep dodging until it tries to ram you. Dodge it and fire a Power Beam (and/or missile) onto its exposed red rear. Repeat this until it is defeated and claim the Morph Ball.

Plasma Beam

Enter the Triclops Pit from the Lava Lake side. Walk forward, then look to the right with the X-Ray Visor. You will see a floating platform. Leap to it, then jump to two more platforms and look around until you see a Missile Expansion. Use a Super Missile to destroy the rock encasing the expansion, then hop over and pick it up. Once you have the Grapple Beam, you can careen through Magmoor Caverns with little concern about your own safety. Use the new tool (and strategically placed grapple points) to swing over lava pits easily. Jump to the other side of the Geothermal Core, then look for platforms on the right-hand side of the wall (assuming you are facing away from the twin fires area). Jump to the top, then use the Grapple Beam to swing to the pillar in the middle of the room. Roll into the Spinner Device and twirl with the Boost Ball until you raise the platform. Jump to the other two platforms and repeat the process. Look for a Spider Ball track on the third pillar. Roll up the track, then drop down. Jump to the highest pillar in sight and plant a bomb in the Morph Ball slot. Get on the Spider Ball track, then go through without falling. The best way is to hold R and roll on the Spider Ball track. If you need to go up, place a bomb. If you need to go down, release R, then immediately when it touches the next track, hold R again. If you find enemies, lay a bomb and stand back. It is better to destroy them than to avoid them. Go through the door to the Plasma Processing room and get the upgrade. Note: No bosses need to be defeated to get the Plasma Beam, as it is left unguarded. It is a fire-based beam, and is very effective on ice-based creatures.
