X-Naut

X-Nauts are aliens that work for Grodus and Lord Crump of the X-Naut Legion and they all appear in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. These guys are short and individually weak, but rush to defend their threatened leader, often Lord Crump.

Varieties and Ranks of X-Nauts

 * X-Naut Troopers are the lesser X-Nauts, also the weakest. These types of X-Nauts are field troops and the lowest of Grodus' underlings. When led by high-ranking commanders, such as Lord Crump, they can use more attacks.
 * Elite X-Nauts are high-ranking soldier X-Nauts and of course, the strongest X-Nauts. Unlike the Trooper X-Naut or the PhD, his type of X-Naut wears a red-and-black uniform with a white X to signify their rank. Judging by their rank, they are usually sent on special missions. One of their usual tasks include guarding their Headquarters on the Moon. The Elite X-Naut is much tougher in battle than a standard X-Naut.

 * Locations: X-Naut Fortress, The Great Tree
 * Tattle Number: 107
 * Tattle Log: A foot soldier that uses potions and attacks by ramming. This X-Naut is the lowest of Grodus's underlings.
 * Tattle: That's an X-Naut. Says here it's classified as an `enemy combatant'. This description stinks... You think it means they're just low-level foot soldiers? Max HP is 4, Attack is 3 and Defense is 0. They drink these potions that make them all big and burly and they attack! One's easy, but if there's two or more, better watch out! Use special moves and items!

X-Naut Platoon Stats

 * HP: 6/10
 * Attack: 4/5
 * Defense: 0
 * Location: Keelhaul Key
 * Tattle: That's an X-Naut platoon. Crump commands them all. Where'd they come from? Their Max HP depends on their condition, but Attack is 5 and Defense is 0. They're gonna come at us with coordinated group maneuvers, I'm sure. ...But they're pretty wimpy, so we should be able to handle it, don'tcha think?

 * Tattle: That's an Elite X-Naut. This guy is the creme de la creme of the X-Nauts. Max HP is 10, Attack is 5 and Defense is 1. He'll use regular attacks as well boosting his power or size. Elite X-Nauts are tough, but you just have to smack away until they go down.
