The Kagoubinôme is a characters who was scrapped from the final version of [[Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc]].
{{Quote|text=The Kagoubinôme, as his name suggests, is in fact composed of two completely different, but complementary, [[Hoodlum]]s. He can carry out two distinct attacks, playing on the size and shape of the [[Hoodlum]]s who make up his two-person character. To begin with, at long-distance, the smaller of the two perches on the fatter one and the latter starts rolling around like a ball. The small one - looking like a circus tightrope walker - steers him along, trying to crush [[Rayman]]. Later on, in close combat, it's the big [[Hoodlum]] who attacks [[Rayman]], using the little one as a nunchaku.


The Kagoubinôme, As his name suggests (binomial meaning two options), is in fact composed of two completeley different, but complementary, Hoodlums. One Hoodlum appeared very small and thin, the other Hoodlum appeared tall and very fat. The Kagoubinôme couple could carry out two distinct attacks, playing on the size and shape of the Hoodlum who make up his two-person character. To begin with, at long distance, the smalle of the two perches on the fatter one and the latter starts rolling around like a ball. The small on - looking like a circus tightrop walker - steers him along, trying to crush [[Rayman]]. Later on, in close combat, it's big [[Hoodlum]] who attacks [[Rayman]], using the little Hoodlum as a nunchaku. 
Despite the character's original and attractive game design, the Kagoubinôme was discarded by the developers because his first attack required a lot of space in the level and the second proved very difficult to programme. [''sic'']|sign=VIP-zone description|source=[[RaymanZone]]}}


Despite the character's original and attractive game design, the Kagoubinôme was discarded by the developers because his first attack required a lot of space in the level and the second proved very difficult to programme.
The '''Kagoubinôme''' was a variety of [[Hoodlum]] which was initially planned to appear as an enemy in ''[[Rayman 3]]'', but was cut from the final version of the game. His French name would most likely have been changed before the game's release, possibly to one containing the word 'hood'. Since the name can roughly be translated to 'Hoodpair', the [[Conjoined Hoodlum]] could be an earlier concept of the Kagoubinôme.


*Note on the name: Many [[Hoodlum]] types have a name with the word "Hood" in it (for example: Hoodstomper, Hoodoo, Hoodboom, etc.), but in the development of [[Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc]] all the different types [[Hoodlum]] had a name with the word "Kag"in it (for example: Kagustick, Kagalfa, Master Kaag). Therefore the Kagoubinôme's name would have been changed to something with "Hood" in it in the final version of the game.

==Trivia==
* Kagoubinôme textures have been found in the [[Rayman 3 (early production)#E3 2002 prototype|''Rayman 3'' E3 2002 demo]] files in the 2000 texture folder as well as more updated versions of the textures in the 2002 texture folder, which may suggest that he was included in some way at that date.
