Day 4 of creating a Generations gameplay route for each Smash character!
In a hypothetical Super Smash Bros. game with a story mode, the villain somehow manages to summon the Time Eater from Sonic Generations. Using it's power, the Smashers are all flung into their own versions of White Space, where they must team up with past versions of themselves (or future versions in some cases) to explore many locations from their past, collect all seven Chaos Emeralds, and defeat the Time Eater to escape.
In each character's route, I will go over the gameplay styles for both the Classic and Modern versions of each character, every Level (or whatever else they may have) on their quest, and what they must do in order to acquire Chaos Emeralds. Some of these will be slightly more descriptive than others, either because it will be necessary to do so or just because I'm more familiar with some franchises than others. I will attempt to release one of these daily until I've passed through all 86 characters on the Smash roster, going in order of official Fighter Number.

Day 4: Samus
Classic Samus follows the gameplay of Super Metroid, while Modern Samus follows the gameplay of Metroid Dread. Instead of individual levels, the two Samuses will explore a large interconnected map featuring locations from every Metroid game that have been mashed together. Both Samuses have different abilities they can collect around the map, so swapping between them (which is done at Save Stations) is necessary to complete their objective...which is to locate all of the Seven Bosses and collect the Chaos Emeralds they guard.
The areas that make up the map include:
- Brinstar (Metroid)
- Phase 2 (Metroid II)
- Wrecked Ship (Super Metroid)
- Restricted Laboratory (Metroid Fusion)
- Phendrana Drifts (Metroid Prime)
- Chozodia (Metroid: Zero Mission)
- Ing Hive Temple (Metroid Prime 2)
- Vesper Defense Outpost (Metroid Prime Hunters)
- Phaaze Sanctum (Metroid Prime 3)
- Pyrosphere (Metroid: Other M)
- Excelcion (Metroid Prime: Federation Force)
- Phase 6 (Metroid: Samus Returns)
- Hanubia (Metroid Dread)
The Chaos Emeralds are guarded by seven Bosses who hide out in different parts of the map. The Bosses are:
- Ridley
- Kraid
- Mother Brain
- Metroid Queen
- Dark Samus
- Sylux
- Raven Beak
