I think it’s a combination between “polokus” and “curse”

Think well ! Polokus will therefore become evil ? And will we fight or save him ?

I mean this is the same book that says on the page that you took a screen that Uglette is playable in the Ubiart games through Red Globox

Are you sure that’s Uglette? They probably were initially the same colour but then the “mosquito incident” happened

That's right, Mike did a great job with L'Histoire de Rayman but it still contains a few mistakes there and there, like this "Glute" name he got from Wikipedia (it's still there, interestingly enough), the screenshot of PluM's hacked game, the number of planned episodes for the (thankfully) cancelled animated series, the superimposition of Cielle with artwork from Phoenix's Rayman 4 (most likely), etc.

That's the thing, it doesn't have a name. Thats why the wiki just calls it "Globox's species".

On a side note, I've merged this topic with the one where the original debate took place.
