If you’re talking about that Dark Alpha Splinter thingy then you either keep shooting at it, keep using Charge Beams or do both and here’s a hint make sure you dodge its attacks by pressing B and left or right it is partly crucial that you dodge its attacks. I’m a Metroid Prime Genius and only get stuck on very hard parts this is because I’ve completed the first one on hard mode about seven times.

The Alpha Bog took me ages to defeat but on my 6th try I defeated him within 2 minutes flat.

The Alpha Bog can only get harmed when its attack whilst it charges towords you. what you must do is to first lock on and attack it, then it might get angry, quickly charge your beam (any will do but i found that the dark beam is particularly the best for beating Alpha Bog) fire and quickly dash away before it charges at you, it will get stuck in the wall (if it doesent it ill swim around and it might trow sonic waves at you, dodge them and fire at it) fire at the Alpha Bog and again repeat what you just did,charge your beam, fire and quickly dash away.

This method is the bets way of defeating Alpha Bog in my opinion and it will take a few trys and bare in mind, when i said 'quickly dash away' i mean a jump dash.

Also you can save once a hacth at one of the doors is raised by going to the bottom of the hydro, jump onto the first platfrom you come too (you might need to jump onto a ledge first), roll into your morph ball, enter the morph ball slot and you well get shot up the tube, get into combat mopde and look around, you will find a door, o into the room were the door is and there is a save station.
