A Databot is a hovering robot on SkyTown, Elysia and Eastern SkyTown, Elysia in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. If it is shot, then it can be scanned for SkyTown Data. Databots are indestructible to all forms of weaponry. When a Databot is shot, it folds in half and projects a holographic screen with circular symbols into the air. After the data is scanned and downloaded, the Databot unfolds and resumes its patrol. There are twelve Databots scattered throughout the planet. Little is known of these mechanoids, except that they were left behind to give future visitors to Elysia information about the fate of the Elysians.

Logbook entry
Databots were designed by the Elysians as a means to record and pass on historical data. They patrol along their set area until disrupted, and then project a holographic datafile. However, only those equipped with Chozo-based visor technology can access this information.
