The '''Komayto''' (コメト ''Kometo'') is a creature in the game ''[[Kid Icarus]]''. This enemy bears a strikingly similar look to a [[metroidwiki:Metroid (species)|Metroid]] from the popular ''[[metroidwiki:Metroid (series)|Metroid series]]''. They move in the exact fashion as [[Commyloose|Monoeyes]], in groups of four in [[Skyworld]]. Their appearance was drastically altered in the Game Boy sequel, ''[[Kid Icarus: Of Myths and Monsters]]'', having only a single "tooth" and appearing in the [[Skyworld|Skyworld Tower]]. They attack [[Pit]] by [[Enemy Tactics#Pounce|ramming]] (using the Climbing behavior); unlike the average Metroid, Komaytos do not latch onto Pit and drain his energy (except where noted below for ''Kid Icarus: Uprising''). In Uprising, there is also a cellular version, which is the same except with slightly different colors and an odd complexion.
The '''Komayto''' (コメト ''Kometo'') is an extraterrestrial enemy in the [[Kid Icarus series]]. These creatures bear a striking resemblance to the [[metroidwiki:Metroid (species)|Metroid]]s from the popular ''[[metroidwiki:Metroid (series)|Metroid series]]''.

====Regular====
''"While this creature resembles a certain alien life-form, the last Komaytos are not in captivity and Skyworld is not at peace. Stray too close and it will latch on to you, draining your life energy and restricting your movement."''


Komaytos will appear in the game, acting much more like true Metroids than in previous installments of the series. They will latch onto Pit and suck his life energy if he does not dispatch them quick enough. Komaytos are almost identical to the modern depiction of Metroids, with the only real difference being that they now have tentacles instead of claws. Projectile attacks inflict no damage on them, limiting Pit's ability to deal with their life-draining attacks.

====Cellular====
''"This cellular version of the Underworld Komayto guards Hades's Belly from intruders. They act like white blood cells, latching onto foes and transferring heir life force to Hades's Belly. Take them out with melee attacks."''


'''Cellular Komaytos''' (コ細胞 ''Ko Saibou'') are rare enemies, found only during the land battle of ''[[Lord of the Underworld]]''.

*The topic of Komaytos resembling Metroids was brought up in ''Kid Icarus: Uprising'' in the chapter: ''[[The Chaos Vortex]]''. Pit mentions that the Komaytos bared a resemblance to Metroids with [[Viridi]] denying the thought, stating that the ''Kid Icarus'' universe and the ''Metroid'' universe were unrelated.
