	Ridley is first encountered in [[Ceres Station]]. When Samus's energy goes below 30, Ridley will fly away and the escape will begin, so the goal for optimally 'defeating' him is to take damage as fast as possible. This is best accomplished by standing next to the right wall as Ridley appears, since Ridley's tail deals the most damage per hit. After the third hit, you will need to jump up to take damage from Ridley's tail as he will begin to hover. The hitbox for Ridley's tail exists primarily at the tip.

	After the fourth hit, moving slightly to the left may help manipulate Ridley's tail into staying on-screen, allowing the fifth hit to happen as soon as Samus' i-frames run out.

	If you can get Ridley to pick you up on one of the spots highlighted in this image, you might be able to get him to explode immediately instead of waiting a few seconds.		If you can get Ridley to pick you up on one of the spots highlighted in this image, you might be able to get him to explode immediately instead of waiting a few seconds.

			=== Stuck ===

			Under certain conditions Ridley can get stuck, either on the floor or in the air.

			The air stuck setup happens when Samus breaks out of spin frame-perfectly while at a certain height, while Ridley is also at the same height, at the peak of a tail bounce. There is no known consistent setup for either stuck form, but both can be broken out of by laying a Power Bomb, which will make Ridley attempt to dodge it.
