Yuxes are X-shaped creatures created by the X-Naut army, appearing in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. They are first encountered in the Great Tree where they are used as security by the X-Nauts. A smaller number appear later in the X-Naut Fortress on the Moon.
In battle, Yuxes produce a Mini-Yux from within themselves at the end of every turn; the Mini-Yux sustains a barrier around the Yux that renders it invincible. The Yuxes attack with ring beam that pierce defence; even Damage Dodge badges have no effect on the damage they deal. This means that a Yux's attack will always deal at least one damage unless the target performs a successful Superguard.

Trivia
- Another Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door creature known as Grodus X also resemble Yuxes. These smaller creatures are also green and cross-shaped (though with smaller arms), but they act more like Mini-Yux, and provide a lesser defence enhancement to their creator, Sir Grodus.
- Similar creatures called Barribads appear in the sequel title Super Paper Mario; these creatures resemble Yuxes in their facial appearance and their use of protective barriers.
- In addition. one of the Sammer Guy warriors of Sammer's Kingdom is named Yowling Yux in tribute to the enemy.
