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, such as manually detonating [[Boomer (Super Paper Mario)|Boomer]] to blow up the tail.
