Jammyfish are underwater jellyfish enemies featured in Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2. They are stronger larger variants of Jellyfish. Jammyfish are transparent and have a multicolored, rubbery orb inside their head.

Profile[]

Physical description[]

If you get too close to a Jammyfish and touch it, it will shock you. You can defeat these enemies by throwing a shell at them or spinning into them; the former method is safer, but both will yield a coin that Mario can use to replenish his life meter. Firing Star Bits at Jellyfishes will only make them bounce a little, showing that the small attack doesn't hurt them.

They do not use range attacks but they move around. Mario can take damage or lose a life if he comes in contact depending on his health meter. They can be found in the Bigmouth Galaxy and the Deep Dark Galaxy. The Jammyfish can be defeated by throwing three Green Shells or two Gold Shells at it. The Jammyfish leaves a Coin after its defeat. Like the smaller Preying Mantas, they are found in dark underwater caves or coves and are also found in the same general locations as them.

In Super Mario Galaxy 2, it has the same role as in the first game appearing in the Cosmic Cove Galaxy however this time, it only takes two shell hits to kill it and it releases Star Bits instead of a Coin.

Trivia[]

  • Their name is a pun on "Jam" and "Jellyfish" as Jam is often viewed as an alternative to Jelly.
