Only? ONLY? You avoid quite alot of stuff. Icecles, lightning, big grey thunder clouds, tornadoes, boulders, his charge by bringing his fists foward, that sounds like quite a few to me. Pretty unexpected point of view if you ask me.

But you could fly, as long as I know (I have no R2R). This made it easy to avoid shots.

Those things all fall under one category: avoiding attacks. And only by means of steering. I'll grant you Grolem 13 was great as a boss, but the boss battle in which he fought was just ordinary and boring.

But still Grolem 13 is my favorite boss in the WHOLE Rayman series!!
Except maybe Axel...

(truly, Rayman 2 and Revolution had interesting bosses)

As a boss he was magnificent (although still replicated from Axel in my opinion), but the boss FIGHT was very shallow.
Um... I posted videos links showing the Axel, Foutch, and Grolem 13 battles, and in each of them you can tell the differences between them (both in appearance and attack pattern). From the comments I've quoted above, I'm getting the impression that no-one actually followed the links to view the battles.

Did anyone actually check the vids out?

Of course, and believe it or not I have actually played Rayman 2, but the two bosses are very similar. Yes, I recognise slight differences in body patterns and facial figurement, but generally I believe Foutch was simply a 'remake' of Axel.

Uh... I'm guessing by Foutch you actually mean Grolem?

Grolem 13 is more different from Axel that Foutch is.

Just an opinion. Foutch's personality.... makes you preparing to die.

(I mean "than", not "that")

Foutch has a different colour from Axel.
Foutch has different markings on his body from Axel.

Grolem 13 has a different colour from Axel.
Grolem 13 has different markings on his body than Axel.
Grolem 13 has a different face from Axel.

It's not boring with the background music. And just dogding is still fun.

In the Dreamcast version, Axel has a yellow aura and Foutch has a blue one. If Grolem 13 was in the Dreamcast version, or if the Guardians has auras in Revolution, Grolem 13's should have been red.

Yeah, red would be cool, but the light blue still works well.
Perhaps green?

BLACK!

Anyway, this would look fun in Japanese version: cyan Rayman with yellow aura (because of Power Fists Gloves) and Yellow Foutch with blue aura...

I think you misunderstood me; I was talking about the colour of the glows that surround the Guardians in the Dreamcast version, not the actual colour of the Guardians themselves.

Ah, I see.
I got confused because the aura is based on the colour of the guardian (e.g. Axel is blue and has a blue aura).
