In this anime; it is revealed that the Bacterians capture sentient life to create leaders for their space armada via a dark fog going through space changing inorganic matter into organic matter; (the large brain-like final bosses in the games) and that they are a crystal-like life-form in origin. Though in Gradius III the final boss, Bacterion, (revealed to be the bacterian's center of power in Gradius Gaiden) claims that he/they were born from the greediness of mankind. In Gradius V, Bacterion claims that he is only a small part of Venom; possibly referring to Dr. Venom. Whatever the case; the Bacterians' exact place of origin is unknown as of yet; but it could be revealed if a Gradius VI or Salamander 3 is released by Konami.
