==={{DQHRS}}===
A jargon named Pot Belly appears as a boss in [[Mt. Krakatroda]], inside a building where initially lies the [[Krak Pot]]. Pot Belly tries to steal the [[Krak Pot]] for its own whimsical purposes and [[Rocket]] goes to stop him to retrieve the object to [[Boingburg]] in [[Slimenia]]. Pot Belly is immune to Elasto Blast, so the only way to defeat it is to make it damage itself with the objects it takes from the [[Krak Pot]] such as banana peels and [[rockbomb]]s, as well as throwing [[chimaera wing]]s to the {{MFamilies}} that it also takes out of said pot.
