Taking place supposedly a short while after the events in ''[[Rayman 3]]'', the game begins with [[Rayman]] and [[Globox]] sleeping in [[The Fairy Council (Rayman: Hoodlums' Revenge)|the Fairy Council]], when [[Globox]]'s dreams are disturbed by the memory of him swallowing the [[Black Lum]] [[André]]. He is awakened by a strange sound, and goes off to search for its source. Later, [[Rayman]] awakens up to find that [[Globox]] is missing, and goes off to look for him.

He is awakened by a strange sound, and goes off to search for its source. Later, [[Rayman]] awakens up to find that [[Globox]] is missing, and goes off to look for him.


As he progresses onward, [[Rayman]] is told by [[Murfy]] that the [[Hoodlum]]s are trying to clone [[Reflux]]; the other main rival of ''[[Rayman 3]]'', and that the clone is [[plum juice]]-powered. Before he finally meets up with [[Globox]], he must destroy [[the Infernal Machine]], which manufactures the potent [[plum juice]]. It is later discovered that it is [[Globox]] himself who is being turned into [[Reflux#Appearance in Rayman: Hoodlums' Revenge|Reflux's clone]].

Before he finally meets up with [[Globox]], he must first destroy the [[Infernal Machine]], which manufactures the potent [[plum juice]]. It is later discovered that it is [[Globox]] himself who is being turned into [[Reflux#In Rayman: Hoodlums' Revenge|Reflux's clone]].


Meanwhile, in [[Bog of Murk (Rayman: Hoodlums' Revenge)|the Bog of Murk]], [[Globox]] is unknowingly being slowly taken over by [[André]], and this is apparent by [[Globox]]'s sudden mood swings in which he become condescending, aggressive, and mean. Later, when he and [[Rayman]] are reunited, [[André]] often insults [[Rayman]] or the feeble attempts of the [[Hoodlum]]s ("meddlesome loser" and "Lame-man" being some of the jeers he throws at [[Rayman]]). However [[Rayman]], unused to [[Globox]] acting in such a manner, simply does not hear most of it, though at one point he asks [[Globox]] if he was hit in the head.

As they continue through the lands they must save the [[Teensie]]s. They will also come up against [[Bégoniax]] once again, [[the Infernal Machine]], a [[Firemonster]], and finally, [[Reflux]]'s clone. In the [[Pit of Endless Fire]], after the defeat of the [[Firemonster]], [[André]] takes full control of [[Globox]] and announces his return.

In the [[Pit of Endless Fire]], after the defeat of said [[Firemonster]], [[André]] takes full control of [[Globox]] and announces his return. Shortly after, he turns [[Globox]] into the [[Reflux#In Rayman: Hoodlums' Revenge|clone of Reflux]] and fights [[Rayman]] in the new body.


When [[Rayman]] finally defeats the cloned [[Reflux]], it changes back into [[Globox]] as [[André]]'s black spirit flutters away through [[Globox]]'s mouth, and he awakes his full self, even asking if he missed breakfast. The story ends with the pair walking off into the forest.

* On the North American box art of the game, there is a typographical error whereby the apostrophe is placed between the word ‘Hoodlum’ and the letter ‘s’, making the subtitle seem as if there is only one [[Hoodlum]] rather than a group of them.

* Although this is not a Game Boy Advance version of ''[[Rayman 3]]'' (but rather, a direct sequel), it does mark many ''[[Rayman 3]]'' characters' first and only appearance on handheld, many of which were absent from [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the actual Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3'']]. These characters include [[Reflux]], [[Roméo Patti]] (referred to as Doc), and [[Bégoniax]] (though there was a level in [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3'']] called [[Swamp of Bégoniax]] but the character never actually appeared). It is possibly [[André]]'s first appearance in a handheld game, although the [[Black Lum]] swallowed by [[Globox]] in ''[[Rayman 3]]'' may be him, simply unnamed and with a smaller role. [[André]] does not strictly appear in this game, as he merely possesses [[Globox]].

This is one of the few occasions when real world events are referenced in the [[Rayman series]].
