A '''Jawbus''' is an enemy found in the game ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. When attacking a Jawbus, their weak spot is their tail. In addition, their necks stretch out, so jumping over them would normally be very difficult. They also keep going in the same direction unless they hit a wall or are hit on their tail. There are several ways to beat them, most of which involve the use of [[Pixl]]s for help:
*Use [[Mario]] to flip to 3D and get behind it, then flip back to 2D and attack the tail.
*Use [[Thoreau]] to pick it up while it is not outsretched, then throwing it at other enemies.
*Use [[Boomer (Pixl)|Boomer]] in front of it and manually detonate him or wait until he explodes when it is near the tail part.
*Use [[Slim]] to turn invisible and get behind it to attack the tail.
*Use [[Barry]] to hit it into another enemy.
*Use [[Bowser]] to breathe fire on the tail (requires good timing).
*Use [[Fleep]] to flip it around in circles, then attack the tail while it faces the player.
*Use [[Luigi]] to [[Super Jump]] over its extendable head, and land on the other side to attack the tail.

A Jawbus is an enemy found in the game Super Paper Mario. Jawbuses first appear to be rolling, rhombus-shaped creatures with smiling face and a sphere for a tail. When the player gets closer, they reveal their dragon-like form and will try to bite them. In this form, a Jawbus has a long spiky neck and a spiky sphere-shaped body.

When attacking a Jawbus, their weak spot is their tail. In addition, their necks stretch out, so jumping over them would normally be very difficult. They also keep going in the same direction unless they hit a wall or are hit on their tail. There are several ways to beat them, most of which involve the use of Pixls for help, such as manually detonating Boomer to blow up the tail. Flipping to 3D and getting around them works too.
