Jerry

Jerry is a monster encountered in Snowdin Forest. Jerry is unique in that it has no attack of its own, but instead causes other monster's attacks to last 2 seconds longer than normal.

Appears With

 * Snowdrake
 * Icecap
 * Chilldrake

Strategy

 * Ditching Jerry will cause it to disappear, though it will return after two or three turns. Sparing all other monsters while Jerry is ditched will end the fight.
 * Alternatively, Jerry can be spared after joking while Snowdrake is present.
 * Jerry is painstakingly slow to kill. In a Genocide Route, it may be faster to spare Jerry and look for another monster to kill instead. (Sparing random encounters is always allowed on a Genocide Route, so long as the kill counter is exhausted in each area.)
