Jaxi Statues are sculptures resemblingJaxis. They are found in theSand Kingdom inSuper Mario Odyssey. At least one can talk and move, which letsMario ride on it as long as he pays a one-time fee of 30coins. It is strongly suggested, however, that more than one Jaxi can move. Six stands for Jaxi Statues are found atop theInverted Pyramid around its edge, five of which are occupied; the empty corner is stated to be the former resting spot of the moving Jaxi.[1] Taking the Jaxi to this spot rewards Mario with aPower Moon. Pairs of Jaxi Statues are also present at theTostarena Ruins Entrance and the entrance to theJaxi Ruins. Near theDesert Oasis, there is a lone Jaxi Statue located on a pedestal and facing an empty slot; if Mario takes the rideable Jaxi to said empty slot, then he will recognize the statue as his family and give a Power Moon to Mario.Cappy can interact with the tails of the Jaxi Statues atop the Inverted Pyramid, producing one coin per statue, though one of the statues instead rewards a Power Moon; the other Jaxi Statues cannot be interacted with in this way.
One of the purchasablesouvenirs from the Sand Kingdom is a small replica of a Jaxi Statue. There are also extremely small Jaxi Statues atop the souvenir of the Inverted Pyramid.
Additionally, they appear on the Inverted Pyramid inCaptain Toad: Treasure Tracker on theNintendo Switch andNintendo 3DS, in the levelSecret of the Inverted Pyramid.
