I'd say its Ridley, 100% sure without a doubt. I mean, who would it be if it wasn't Ridley? It doesn't look like Queen Metroid, Kraid, Parasite Queen, or whatever the boss alien to me. If somebody have played or watched Other M entirely before, then they should know Pyrosphere = Ridley. It doesn't matter whether its an original or a clone or whatever it is, because there's no difference Ridley has become a stage hazard character, and definitely Sakurai's not gonna change it as its already officially decided and confirmed. So just accept reality.
