===[[The Dream Forest]]=== | ===[[The Dream Forest]]=== | ||
The first world of the game is [[the Dream Forest]], a lush jungle. [[Rayman]]'s journey begins in a region known as [[Pink Plant Woods]]. On his way through these woods, he encounters [[Betilla]] for the first time in the game; she grants him the [[telescopic fist]] ability, which takes advantage of his detached hands and allows him to throw them, defeating enemies or smashing [[cage]]s. [[Rayman]] passes into [[Anguish Lagoon]], where he encounters a [[mosquito]] who is later identified in ''[[Rayman Revolution]]'' as [[Bzzit]]. The two fight briefly, and [[Bzzit]] begins to cry when [[Rayman]] defeats him. [[Rayman]] takes pity on [[Bzzit]] and cheers him up; they become friends. [[Bzzit]] allows [[Rayman]] to ride on his back as he flies over the otherwise impassable waters of the lagoon. [[Betilla]] appears again and gives [[Rayman]] another power: the ability to [[Hanging|hang onto ledges]], which helps him to avoid falls and lets him climb onto certain platforms. [[Rayman]] then moves on to [[the Swamps of Forgetfulness]], where he meets [[Tarayzan]] (a pastiche of Tarzan). [[Tarayzan]] has lost his loincloth and is hiding behind a shrub. [[Rayman]] returns it to him, and [[Tarayzan]] rewards him by giving him a [[magic seed]]. Suddenly the rain begins to flood the area, and [[Rayman]] must use the [[magic seed]] to grow [[Water lily|water lilies]] which he can climb to escape the flood. | The first world of the game is [[the Dream Forest]], a lush jungle.

Next, [[Rayman]] passes into [[Moskito's Nest]], where he is chased by a [[mosquito]] called [[Moskito]]. As the main boss of [[the Dream Forest]], [[Moskito]] is essentially a more powerful and unpleasant version of [[Bzzit]]. Eventually [[Rayman]] and [[Moskito]] have a climactic battle in the deepest part of the forest. After [[Rayman]] defeats him, [[Betilla]] appears to give him another power: the [[grappling fist]] ability, which enables him to swing from [[flying ring]]s and cover large distances without touching the ground. | Next, [[Rayman]] passes into [[Moskito's Nest]], where he is chased by a [[giant mosquito]] called [[Moskito]].
