X-Yux
A X-Yux (pronounced "Cross-Yux" instead of "Ex-Yux") is an upgrade of the original Yux found in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. It is the one guard of Grodus' that he trusts to protect his personal room in the fortress. It spawns two Mini-X-Yux each round, up to a maximum of four per X-Yux. As always, it's invincible while Mini-X-Yux are surrounding it. When an X-Yux is surrounded by four Mini-X-Yux, it shoots five beams at Mario and his partner. Each has the potential to make Mario Immobilized, so one should try to Superguard. For an easier battle, it is advised to obtain the Feeling Fine badges from the crane room before fighting the X-Yux, as it protects against most status ailments including Immobilized.
Notes
Although X-Yux is to be read "Cross-Yux", Goombella uses the word "an" before saying the creature's name, indicating that she is pronouncing it as "Ex-Yux".

Trivia
- Even though in the Peach intermissions it shows two X-Yuxes guarding Grodus' room, you only battle one when you get there as Mario.
