''"You're doomed Rayman!"'' - Mister Dark.

{{Character
| name = Mr. Dark
| image = [[Image:MisterDark.jpg|160px]]
| alignment = Bad
| appears in = [[Rayman 1]], [[Rayman Junior]]
| sex = Male
| species = Unknown
| status = Villain
}}

'''Mr. Dark''' is the main antagonist in ''[[Rayman 1|Rayman]]''. He is a mysterious being that steals the [[Great Protoon]] because of its immense power, causing the world to lose its natural stability. He also uses his powers to defeat [[Betilla the Fairy]], who tries to defend the Great Protoon but is overpowered. At a later point of the game, Dark kidnaps Betilla and traps her in a crystal ball.

==As a villain==
Despite his role in ''Rayman'' as the main antagonist, he does not choose to fight [[Rayman]], but rather cast strange spells on him, such as creating [[Bad Rayman]], making Rayman run uncontrollably, and reversing his movements. Following this, by the time Rayman reaches the top of his castle, he tries to destroy him by trapping him between deadly walls of fire, but then combines the bodies of the previous bosses into 3 different battles to fight. The first fight is against a hybrid of [[Mister Stone]] and [[Mister Skops]], the second fight is against two hybrids of [[Moskito]] and [[Space Mama]], and the third and final fight is against a hybrid of Moskito, [[Mister Sax]] and Space Mama. After Rayman defeats these bosses, Mr. Dark flees. Because of this, the return of Betilla and the [[Great Protoon]] are not seen, though a picture shown afterwards suggests that they had been rescued.

==Fighting back==
[[Image:GBC11.png|thumb|Rayman fighting Mr. Dark at a high peak]]
Mr. Dark's role as a villain is looked into a lot more in the [[Rayman (GBC)|Game Boy Color release of ''Rayman'']]. In this game he has imprisoned the [[Electoon|Toons]] and uses their power for himself, throwing the world into darkness and chaos. Unlike the original, he engages in a final boss battle with Rayman. In between each level he can also be seen watching Rayman though a crystal ball.

==The Final Battle==

It starts out with Mr. Dark shielding himself from your fists with three bubble-like balls. Then, he slowly rises up, and when he is off screen, he rains fire upon you from above. After ten to fifteen fire balls are dropped, he descends back down to the stage, while still having the shield around himself, and turns into a ball. While in Ball form, he randomly floats around the stage trying to ram you. Your objective is to hit him while he is in Ball form three times. But as you hit him, he gets smaller and smaller, and becomes harder to hit. After hitting him three times, a heart appears at the top of the stage so you can replenish your health. Mr. Dark turns back to normal, and then he floats off screen again. This time, he throws ten meteors at you, two at a time. Then, he does the same routine as before: He comes back down, and turns into a ball. But this time, he will stay in Ball form for a shorter period than before, and if you can't manage to hit him three times within the time limit, he will turn back to normal and float back up into the sky to throw meteors at you again. If you do hit him three times, a heart will appear once again, and he will rise back up into the sky to unleash his final attack. This time, he shoots sixteen bolts of lightning. They are shot at the step you were just above on the stage, and can be easily avoided by using your Helico power to hover over a lower step for a short time. After the sixteen bolts of lightning are shot, he turns back into Ball form. It's same as before, but now the time he is in Ball form for even less time. But if you manage to hit him three times before he turns back to normal, you have beaten him. He turns back to normal form, burns up, and a spirit shape appears right where he burned up, then the spirit completely fades from existence.

==Stealing the Book of Knowledge==
Mr. Dark also appears in the educational version of ''[[Rayman 1]]'', ''[[Rayman Junior]]'', in which he steals the [[Great Book of Knowledge]] from the [[Magician]] and destroys a map to his hideout, which is also in a world based on desserts. Like the original game, he casts the same spells on Rayman, but due to the nature of the game being educational, he doesn't fight as a final boss at all.

Rayman (Game Boy Color)

2008-08-01T10:49:46Z

74.67.239.25: /* Notable differences */

{{Game
| name = Rayman
| image = [[Image:RaymanGBC.jpg|center|200px]]
| published by = Ubisoft
| developed by = Ubisoft
| release date = 2000
| genre = 2D Platformer
| gameplay mode = Single player
| platforms = Game Boy Color
}}

'''''Rayman'' (GBC)''' is a remake of the original ''[[Rayman 1|Rayman]]'' which was released for the Game Boy Color in 2000. Due to the handheld's technical limits, the game is a lot shorter than the original and Rayman himself is brought down to a small number of pixels high, yet it still manages to recreate the colorful universe of the original on the Game Boy Color.

==Notable differences==
* While Rayman's sprite is a smaller version of that in the original Rayman, the rest of this version's artwork uses his ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape|Rayman 2]]'' appearance.
* The Tings are now tiny fairies that float inside magical balls Rayman has to collect.
* The entire game uses no music from the original, instead replaced with music from Rayman 2.
* The games uses only a password feature.
* There are no bosses at the end of each world, apart from [[Mister Dark|Mr. Dark]] who this time will actually fight you at the very end. This has made the game a lot short and somewhat easier than the original.
* Several characters from the original ([[The Magician]], [[Tarayzan]], [[Betilla the Fairy|Betilla]] etc) do not appear in the game.
* Access to bonus levels is represented by an exit sign which has an arrow facing upwards, rather than the Magician.
* When Rayman is near a cage, the music changes.
* The World Map is accessible at the end of the game.
* All levels have completely original names, and slightly original scenery.

==Other Features==
===Ubi Key===
The Ubi Key was an exclusive feature in which two Game Boy Colors would transfer data to each other using the infra-red links (the small black tabs next to where the user inserts the Game Pak). In this case, a giant key would be found at some point of the game, and when these are transferred they would give you access to bonuses, such as a secret level.

===Sticker Book===
New copies of the game would contain a small sticker booklet and some stickers using some ''Rayman 2'' artwork. Oddly enough there is also a page that featured [[Rigatoni]], the main antagonist from the ''[[Rayman: The Animated Series|Animated Series]]'', which was possibly a means to advertise the series though it never aired in more than a few countries. The rest of the stickers could be obtained at the now defunct official Rayman 2 website, Rayman2.com.

Rainy Forest

2008-07-31T22:41:51Z

74.67.239.25:

'''''Rainy Forest''''' is the third world in the [[Rayman (GBC)|Game Boy Color version]] of [[Rayman 1|the original Rayman]]. It's also the first world to only have three parts. The Helico power is achieved once you reach here. The second water/lava rising level is in the third part of this world too.

Rayman 2 Forever

2008-07-31T15:34:34Z

74.67.239.25: /* Time Attack */

{{Game
| name = Rayman 2 Forever
| image = [[Image:Rayman2 forever gba box front eu.jpg|center|200px]]
| published by = Ubisoft
| developed by = Ubisoft
| release date = 2001
| genre = 2D Platformer
| gameplay mode = Single player
| platforms = Gameboy Color
}}

'''''Rayman 2 Forever''''' (known as ''Rayman 2'' in the USA) is a remake of [[Rayman 2: The Great Escape]] that was released only on the Game Boy Color, and is the sequel to ''[[Rayman (GBC)|Rayman]]'' on the same handheld console. Unlike its predecessor, which had a plot similar to that of the original ''[[Rayman 1|Rayman]]'', this game follows the same plot as Rayman 2. All of the music is taken directly from the first Game Boy Color game, only with added beats. And instead of using a password system, Rayman 2 Forever has a save battery, and allows you to have three save files. The graphics also appear less advanced, most likely due to the fact that the game is longer and cartridge space limits would not allow for more complex visuals.

==Lums==
Also, playing a similar role to the [[Ting]]s in the previous title, the [[Lum]]s are what you find and collect through out the levels. Unlike Tings, Lums will only be picked up once, and will not reappear once you have found it. There are eight hundred Lums in all.

==Cages==
Cages are not as high priority as in the previous title. They are often put to easier-to-find places, and a typical level would only have one cage to be found. Also, to better mimic [[Rayman 2: The Great Escape|the console versions]] of the game, [[Teensie]]s are now trapped in these cages instead of [[Electoon]]s.

==Time Attack==
Time Attack makes a return in the sequel, and instead of collecting Tings before time runs out, you are tasked to collect [[Baby Globox]]es. The portals that you go into to get to the Time Attacks are like typical exit portals, although they spin left instead of right.

==Powers==
Unlike the first GBC Rayman title, or Rayman 2 The Great Escape, you start out with all powers, and keep them through out the game. The only other power there is that you don't start out with, or keep at all times, is the Super Helico power.
