Jells are blue amoeba-like creatures with solid red cores. They can will their bodies into various shapes in combat and generally assume the form of humanoids from the waist up. Their protoplasm color varies depending on the subspecies, but the appearance changed quite a bit for Monster Rancher 3, becoming far less humanoid and more small and cute (supposedly what Jells looked like before copying the forms of humans). The Jell has been been slightly redesigned in Monster Rancher 4 and Monster Rancher EVO, taking on more of a melted face with flailing arms and a thinner body. These changes seem to indicate that the Jell gene pool is breaking down over time after more and more exposure to humans.
A Jell attacks by forming itself into various weapons, punching with its amorphous arms, or forming itself into a blob and hitting the enemy with momentum.
Etymology
So-named because of their jelly-like bodies.
