==Characteristics==
Jargons are bipedal [[Dragon family|dragons]] with immense bellies and bumpy yellow scales, known for carrying around jars of a mysterious liquid on a strap across their chests. In battle, they can take a swig from their jars to breathe out flames or disperse magical sand to blind their opponents. They also attack by tackling opponents with their large bellies.

==={{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.
==={{DQTact}}===
Jargon appears as a C-rank monster of the [[Dragon family]]. It can be recruited from Chapters 13-2, 13-6, 13-8, and 15-1 of the main storyline, as well as the Great Wing Plains level at any difficulty during the Dragon Fest event. It also appears as the story boss of Chapter 7, Episode 9: The Jarring Jargon. Jargon can participate in the [[Green dragon]], [[Gasbagon]], and [[Baran]]'s Battle Roads as a party member.
