* HigherTechSpecies: They developed their unique technology through a combination of contact with the Chozo and their own experimentation on Aether. In fact, they might very well have gotten the chance to join the Chozo as SufficientlyAdvancedAliens had they not gotten embroiled with the Ing. Deconstructed to a degree in several of their log entries, which reveal that they nearly drained their planet of its natural energy with their reckless use of technology. Their attempts to regulate their energy consumption after the fact inadvertently contributed to the birth of Dark Aether and the Ing after the Leviathan crashed into their planet.

* EneryWeapons: They use energy whips when you're outside of slashing distance

* WhipItGood: They use energy whips when you're outside of slashing distance

* SurveillanceAsThePlotDemands: U-Mos watches for Ing activity through the Luminoth's Sentinel Crystals, most commonly found in the Torvus area.

* SpectacularSpinning: Sometimes, during its first phase. Subverted, since getting sucked into a top-like mech to be battered is anything but better.

* ActionSurvivor: As far as what is shown, neither species has any combat potential whatsoever; they're quick and clever, and likely use both aspects to carve out a niche in Zebes. However, the group of five Samus ends up running into multiple times throughout her life are especially resilient. As shown in ''Dread,'' [[spoiler:X are ''incredibly'' adept at infecting entire planets within a span of hours, if not mere minutes, given the opportunity.]] Despite this, the Etecoons and Dachoras survive not only the destruction of Zebes, but also an untold period of time in the BSL station '''while infested by X.''' Even accounting for the potential that the X somehow couldn't enter their enclosure, there is an indeterminate amount of time following Samus freeing them where they somehow manage to make it back to Samus' ship, safe and sound. They have to qualify for this trope to pull something like that off; the walk from the enclosure to the ship is by no means short nor safe.

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: There is no mention of any of them in ''VideoGame/MetroidDread'', and it's unknown where they went or what happened to them after they escaped with Samus from the BSL Station.

* EverythingsBetterWithSpinning: Sometimes, during its first phase. Subverted, since getting sucked into a top-like mech to be battered is anything but better.

* AlienAnimals: The Etecoons are effectively alien monkeys with [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair green/blue]] fur with a capacity for wall-jumping, and the Dachora is a bipedal alien ostrich [[SuperSpeed that can run as fast as Samus can with her Speed Booster.]] They're implied to be {{Intelligent Gerbil}}s, as well, [[spoiler:as they are capable of piloting spacecraft, both to escape Zebes and to save Samus.]]

* {{Diary}}: Based on the opening line of their testament, J-Fme kept a journal of some kind, of which the testament was merely his final entry.

* BaitAndSwitchBoss: The second encounter with Trace begins with him sniping a Guardian that was bum rushing Samus.

* {{Expy}}: Hey there, Kraid. You're looking [[BlingOfWar pretty fancy in all that gold and decoration]]. Even his theme sounds similar to Kraid's ''Super Metroid'' and ''Zero Mission'' theme.

* BossBattle: Of the Ing Hive area.

* StunGun: It's disruptor can stun Samus, but can be dodged with the boost ball or deflected with a screw attack.

* NoSell: He'll casually block anything you try and hit him with, up to and including the devastating power bombs or reality breaking Sonic Boom.
