	While travelling through [[the Fairy Council]], [[Rayman]] and [[Murfy]] soon found André again, and [[Murfy]] distracted him while [[Rayman]] beat him up.

No creature knows the true origin of the [[Dark Lum]] Lord, who began the reign of havoc on [[The Glade of Dreams\|Rayman's world]]. It has been whispered that one day, a single [[red lum]] beheld something so terrible it grew black with fear and evil. This transformed Dark Lum spread the evil to other red lums, eventually forming an army of cloaked soldiers called [[Hoodlum]]s. Soon [[Rayman]] and [[Globox]] discovered the [[Hoodlum]]s' plan: to taint [[the Heart of the World]].\|sign=Official description\|source=''[[Rayman 3]]''}}

	André makes a small appearance in this game, though he is not named. At the beginning of the game, [[Rayman]] is berating [[Globox]] for accidentally swallowing a [[Black Lum\|Dark Lum]] while attempting to save the [[Teensie]]s. [[Globox]] suddenly flees. When [[Admiral Razorbeard]] hears that [[Globox]] has swallowed a [[Black Lum\|Dark Lum]], he decides he wants to capture [[Globox]] so that he can take advantage of its power, and use it to conquer [[the Glade of Dreams]] and get revenge on [[Rayman]] (this game apparently takes place between the events of ''[[Rayman 2]]'' and ''[[Rayman 3]]'', though its canonicity is uncertain). It is unclear how exactly [[Admiral Razorbeard\|Razorbeard]] plans to use André, but it is most likely that he plans to devour him; [[Robo-Pirate]]s are known to gain energy by eating [[Red Lum]]s, and [[Admiral Razorbeard\|Razorbeard]] is shown eating a [[Yellow Lum]] at one point in ''[[Rayman 2]]''. At the end of the game, once [[Rayman]] defeats [[Admiral Razorbeard\|Razorbeard]] and his [[Grolgoth]] in the [[Heart of the Ancients]], [[Rayman]] manages to track down [[Globox]]. [[Globox]] spits out the [[Black Lum\|Dark Lum]] and returns to [[~~baby~~ Globox\|his children]].		André makes a small appearance in this game, though he is not named.
