:::::The plural may be in-game (in the English text at least), though in fairness, we don't exactly know how long ago the brochure was printed. I also don't know much about a Japanese version of the artbook, but this still looks more like a reverse-Toad/Yoshi situation. EDIT: Well, upon closer inspection, there seem to actually be three types of Jaxis - the main rideable Jaxi (referred to as "Raidon Bus" in Japanese), the five Jaxi statues on the Inverted Pyramid, and the Jaxi Statue souvenir that appears to be a replica of the second. I presume this is where SmokedChili sourced the Japanese name. The English description reads as follows: "''In the Tostarena region, the Jaxi has lived alongside the people since ancient times. This statue is made from the stones of the ruins!''" <s>Can someone check the Japanese text for me?</s> [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RCg_0Zu-q8&t=56s Here] is the Japanese text, referring to it as 「ライドン・バス像」 (Raidon Bus Statue). It basically translates to the same thing except the names were localized, notably Raiden Bus becoming Jaxi. Still though, I think it's pretty obvious there is mainly one active Jaxi left by the time Mario enters the Sand Kingdom (maybe two if you count the Jaxi that appears within Jaxi Ruins as a separate one since you can't take it outside, supported by the Prima guide and the fact that it's located ahead of Mario's spawn point, but it's implied to be the same one the player probably entered with), given the brief history it has as the missing statue on the Inverted Pyramid. However, for reference, the game's Prima guide is inconsistent on whether Jaxi is singular or plural. That also leaves the question of the source of SmokedChili's Japanese name.
