Pepper Jack

Pepper Jacks are enemies in Papa Louie 2. The badge "Hand to Hand Combat" is earned by defeating 30 Pepper Jacks while playing as Ninjoy.

Information/Battle Strategy
Before noticing you, pepper jacks stand still with half-lidded eyes. When you come within range of them, their eyes will bug out, then resume to half-lidded as they chase you. They can outdistance a character easily, but waste valuable time reversing direction, so your best bet is to run from them then jump up as they careen under you, then hit them with your weapon while they change direction. For thrown weapons, time jumping precisely to stun a pepper jack as they run under you (if your character has Ground Pound then you may as well go ahead and use that) then put a little distance between you and them, enough to hit them with your thrown weapon. If there is more than one, your best bet is evasive action (ignore them) or to stun all except one and focus on one at a time.

Trivia

 * They are the only enemies in Papa Louie 2, aside from Radishes and Pararadishes, to actively chase a character. Most other ground-based enemies will just walk in a straight line until they fall off a ledge.
