A Phazon Blocker[1] or Phaaze Blocker[2] is a Phazon obstruction encountered thrice in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, in Cargo Dock B and within Generator B on Norion, and the Metroid Cavern on Phaaze. They form over Doors and are indestructible to Samus's weapons. The Blockers have the unique ability to spawn Phazon-type Metroids, glowing bright blue just before they do so. When all enemies summoned by a growth are eliminated, the growth begins to sizzle and then explodes, unblocking an area the growth previously surrounded. When exploding, the removed growth may leave behind further Phazon-related substances for Samus to either destroy or ignore. The creatures summoned by the growth consist of the following:
- 16 Hopping Metroids on Norion's Cargo Dock B. When exploded, it releases three puddles of Liquid Phazon that do not spawn Phazon Grubs.
- 10 Phazon Hoppers on Phaaze. When exploded, it leaves behind Phaz-Ing.
- 1 Metroid Hatcher in Norion's Generator B. This growth is notably larger than the other Phazon Blockers and glows twice, but does not leave behind any creatures or Phazon substances.
