m (The catcher appears in P2's destroyed chamber 19 so I added the respective info on it.)

The '''High Energy Pellet''' is a [[mechanics|puzzle mechanic]] introduced in ''[[Portal]]''. It is a fast moving energy ball, fired by an emitter built into a [[Test Chamber]] surface and usually accompanied by a receptacle that catches it. Players direct the ball into the receptacle in order to activate lifts or devices before it dissipates and explodes. The ball is extremely volatile, and as such instantly vaporizes [[Chell]] on contact. [[Turrets]], however, will be knocked over by it. The High Energy Pellet emitter makes a cameo in Chamber 7 of Portal 2, being lifted out and being replaced by a [[Thermal Discouragement Beam]] emitter.

==Portal 2==
The High Energy Pellet does not make an appearance in Portal 2; however, its emitter and receptacle do. These appear in [[Portal 2 Chapter 2 Test Chamber 1|Chamber 1 of Portal 2's second chapter]], which is identical to [[Portal Test Chamber 06|Test Chamber 06]] of Portal (albeit run down and degraded). However, this similarity is removed when [[GLaDOS]] replaces the items with those of the Thermal Discouragement Beam. They are also present in [[Portal 2 Chapter 1 Test Chambers 7 & 8|Chamber 7 of Portal 2's first chapter]], as this chamber is simply a run-down version of Portal's [[Portal Test Chamber 07|Test Chamber 07]]. The catcher appears in the ruins of [[Portal Test Chamber 19|Test Chamber 19]] from Portal and is visible once [[Chell]] moves towards the exit after being dropped in the incinerator.
