I looked through several hundred pages here and couldn't find an answer. This is my first post so sorry if this is an inconvenience.

I want to get Power Bombs before Chozodia.

The only pbs not guarded by pb blocks is the one in the lava to the left of Norfair. If you shinespark down in the lava I don't think
you can spark on the slope so you don't have enough time.

The only other way I could think of was to maybe use one of the fire creatures to lure into the exit hole and around to get enough height.
I havn't tried it yet but I'm pretty sure there is not enough time for such things in the lava. What with losing health and all. I havn't tried in
Easy or Normal yet. >_<

It's been ages and I was just wondering if anyone ever got it.

Just another thought. a frozen enemy wouldn't stop the drop block from re-spawning would it? That could maybe make it faster to get to the block.
Also been thinking about how sometimes if you speedrun off a block and hit down you can still charge a shinespark. I think your gun has to be out facing front and the distance has to be short.
I've only managed to repeat it in Crateria where you shinespark to get the SM early.

I have a few other small questions too. Not sure if its bad protocol to ask in the same topic but aw well.

I want to shinespark into the back end where mother brain is.

Entering from the start "elevator shaft" doesn't work because of pbs.
I can't get enough time sparking going across where the power grip is. The broken bridge doesn't help.

Going from the right of the powergrip room and going down on the left side and sparking in the "unknown item" room doesn't give me enough time.
Nore does going over the top towards the sm and down the right side.

I need someone to double check these with either tas or actual skill. lol
There is enough room to shinesprite in the water just to the right of the Cratera elevator to Norfair but I move too slow in it until I get the full suit in "mother ship"

Any ideas? I was mainly just wondering what would happen if I did either of these though the pb would be mighty useful.

Thanks so much for the info.

Any idea about my fire enemy idea? It's kinda like going through super metroid in Maridia without gravity or highjump. =P
I doubt that its possible... it would take far too much time but it would still be neat if you could. btw you can only freeze the enemies afew times.
that's impossible afaik.

Aww well. phooey.

Any idea about entering motherbrain from the back? You've been heaps of help. ^-^
If that's possible I'll eat my GBA SP.

EDIT: I mean possible without major hax

No way of entering Mother Brain from the back.  As for using enemies to climb the lava room, there are no enemies in that room, so that won't work

yeah I remembered the two rooms weren't actually "connected" after. Just out of interest what happens when you freeze an enemy in a crumble block? 
I doubt that the block would not reappear but perhaps if you jump into the creature you could jump through the block.

I know all these idea are pretty much stupid but I'm just really thinking out loud and out of the box.

Oh and TheGreenManalishi no need to eat your SP. I've pretty much exhausted all options and its impossible.
I'd like to find my roms for the pc and see what exactly happens if you go to motherbrain from the exit none-the-less. As for the pbs... well it would make life easier but its impossible.
I wouldn't have said I'd eat my SP if I didn't already know it was impossible. I love my SP, if and when it dies on me, she'll get a proper burial, she won't become my dinner.

I seem to remember someone getting in to MB's room from the back using cheats, and it did nothing. Don't remember if you got stuck or if you just had to go around again.

You enter the room and Mother Brain warps you in front of her
