The Plunger Guard is a technique used by Rayman in Rayman in the Phantom Show, the third DLC of Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope. It allows him to spawn two plum-shaped weapons which open in the middle, revealing a plunger gun inside.

Rayman can either leave the Plunger Guards where they are, or grab them and throw them in a different spot. Other heroes can move them too.

When an enemy moves within its range, the Plunger Guard fires two or three plungers at them, depending on its upgrade level. Plunger Guards disappear from the battlefield after firing, or if newer Guards are summoned, as there can only be a maximum of five active ones.

-The [[Xowar]], also known as the '''Xovar''', is a species of gigantic gorilla-like creature from ''[[Rayman 3]]''. In all its appearances it has a distinctive tusk protruding from the right side of its lower jaw.
+The [[Plunger Guard]] is a technique used by [[Rayman]] in ''[[Rayman in the Phantom Show]]'', the third DLC of ''[[Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope]]''. It allows him to spawn two [[plum]]-shaped weapons which open in the middle, revealing a [[plunger]] gun inside.
-The Xowar was planned to be the boss of [[Clearleaf Forest]], and [[Rayman]] would have escaped the battle during a race/chase (viewed from the front), while doing his best to avoid certain obstacles (similar to the idea of the fight with [[Foutch]] in ''[[Rayman 2]]''), but its size made it too difficult for the programmers to work with, so it was replaced by [[Master Kaag]]. Another reason for dropping the Xowar was because there was nothing in the game story to justify a pursuit.
+[[Rayman]] can either leave the Plunger Guards where they are, or grab them and throw them in a different spot. Other heroes can move them too.
-In the loading screen of ''[[Rayman 3]]'' and for the PC [[Rayman 3 (early production)|demo version]], a Xowar is partially shown, lining up with various [[Hoodlum]]s for a police mugshot.
+When an enemy moves within its range, the Plunger Guard fires two or three [[plunger]]s at them, depending on its upgrade level. Plunger Guards disappear from the battlefield after firing, or if newer Guards are summoned, as there can only be a maximum of five active ones.
-According to an examination of the files on the ''[[Rayman 3]]'' disc, a Xowar minigame was once planned for inclusion in the game. The premise of the minigame was that the Xowar is the kindest of creatures, and that it takes pity on [[Rayman]] due to the fact that he has no limbs. Convinced of [[Rayman]]'s suffering, the Xowar chases him in an attempt to kill him and put him out of his supposed misery. The player would presumably have controlled [[Rayman]] as he fled from the Xowar. The Xowar minigame's description is similar to that of the [[Rayman 3 (early production)|scrapped]] Xowar boss fight in the [[Clearleaf Forest]], making it seem likely that the minigame was a recycled version of the fight. It is not known why the minigame was omitted from [[Rayman 3|the final version of the game]]; the Xowar was initially removed as a boss because he was too large for the programmers to work with, and the minigame may have been removed for similar technical reasons.
