~~==Description==~~

The '''Grolgoth''' is a giant robot which [[Razorbeard|Admiral Razorbeard]] uses in an attempt to put a stop to [[Rayman]] at [[the Crow's Nest]]. Piloted by [[Razorbeard]], it is the final boss of ''[[Rayman 2]]'' (with the exception of [[Rayman 2 Forever|the Game Boy Color version]]) and [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance/N-Gage version of ''Rayman 3'']].

At a ~~very late point~~ in Rayman ~~2, Razorbeard is visited by a General who advertises~~ the ~~Grolgoth and its functions to him~~. ~~The Admiral pictures the contraption with Rayman in its deadly grasp and killing him~~, ~~and decides to buy~~ it ~~from~~ the ~~General. He then prepares for his attack while~~ Rayman ~~is going through~~ the [[~~Prison Ship~~]]~~. It is a large machine that somewhat resembles Clark, only that it is yellow~~ and ~~can shoot bombs from its arms. According to~~ the ~~General, "It does everything, except the dishes~~."

==In ''[[Rayman 2]]''==

At a very late point in ''[[Rayman 2]]'', [[Razorbeard]] is visited by [[the General]], a character who first appeared in ''[[Tonic Trouble]]'', another [[Ubisoft]] game which [[Michel Ancel]] worked on. [[The General]] advertises the Grolgoth and its functions to [[Razorbeard]]. [[Razorbeard|The Admiral]] pictures the contraption crushing and shaking [[Rayman]] to death with its deadly grasp, and decides to buy it, giving [[the General]] a chest of gold as payment. He then prepares for his attack while [[Rayman]] is makes his way through [[the Prison Ship]].

The Grolgoth is a large machine comprising of a large, golden-coloured bulk, with articulable arms and legs, similar to those of the [[Robo-Pirate]]s. The Grolgoth's hemisphere-shaped head can extend from the body, revealing the entrance to this robotic marvel. [[Razorbeard]] jumps in and slides down a rope. At the bottom is located a cockpit, from which [[Razorbeard]] controls the machine. For its right hand, it has a cannon, which fires [[helicopter bomb]]s that [[Rayman]] will have to [[Magic fist|shoot]] back at the Grolgoth in order to hurt it. The other hand has a hook, which sees no use in the battle. The Grolgoth can also shoot large energy balls from the soles of its feet.

A diagram of the Grolgoth can be found on a table in the [[Pirate Factory]], an area exclusive to ''[[Rayman Revolution]]''. This paradoxically seems to suggest that the [[Robo-Pirate]]s created the Grolgoth, or had some awareness of it prior to the cutscene in which [[Razorbeard|Admiral Razorbeard]] purchases it from [[the General]].

===Final battle, first phase===

[[File:TheCrowsNestPC.jpg|320px|thumb|right|[[Rayman]] battling [[Razorbeard]] in the Grolgoth.]]

[[Razorbeard]] places the Grolgoth at the top of the mast on the ''[[Buccaneer]]''. He also places [[Globox]], dangling over the edge of the ship from a large elevator's antenna. Before [[Razorbeard]] shoots [[Globox]] to his doom, [[Rayman]] appears through the elevator, shouting that [[Razorbeard]] shall leave [[Globox]] alone. [[Razorbeard]] takes advantage of [[Rayman]]'s position and shoots down the elevator. As [[Razorbeard]] believes himself victorious, [[Rayman]] pulls himself back up on the platform. After checking to ensure that [[Globox]] is safe, the fight begins.

The Grolgoth is immune to [[Rayman]]'s [[magic fist]], and starts with heavy attacks such as shooting [[helicopter bomb]]s, fast energy balls and trying to jump on [[Rayman]] to squash him. [[Rayman]] will have to shoot the [[helicopter bomb]]s back at the Grolgoth, but straight on, otherwise the Grolgoth will evade them.

===Final battle, second phase===

After [[Rayman]] has hit the Grolgoth three times, a cutscene starts in which [[Razorbeard]] make the Grolgoth jump on [[Rayman]] and squash him, but the jump cuts short, causing the Grolgoth to break the platform on which the fight is occurring. Both [[Rayman]] and the Grolgoth fall down into the heart of the ''[[Buccaneer]]'', a chamber filled with boiling lava.

[[Rayman]] is saved by [[Ly]] the Fairy, who sends a [[Silver Lum]]-like ball of energy to catch [[Rayman]] in mid-air, and lower him safely to a small pipe sticking out of the lava, on which a friendly [[flying shell]] has been stationed. [[Ly]]'s face appears in [[Rayman]]'s mind, and she informs him that [[Polokus]] has eliminated all of the [[Robo-Pirate]]s on the land and that the slaves have escaped (with the help of [[Rayman]], seen in the Dreamcast, PlayStation, and [[Rayman Revolution|PlayStation 2]] versions of the game). [[Rayman]] sees that [[Razorbeard]] has survived the fall as well, with the Grolgoth clinging between two metal pipes going up the chamber's walls.

[[Rayman]] flies on the [[flying shell]], both having to find ammo hidden inside the chamber and avoid the homing energy-balls that [[Razorbeard]] shoots after him. [[Rayman]] must use the ammo to shoot energy-balls at the Grolgoth's hands, causing it to slip and fall into the lava. When the Grolgoth is struggling to get out of the lava, it loses some health; [[Rayman]] can damage it more by shooting at it while it is still in the lava. Should [[Rayman]] get hit just once during this phase of the battle, his [[flying shell]] will explode and the battle begins as new from the beginning of this phase. When [[Razorbeard]] reaches 20% health, he will climb up to the top of the chamber and temporarily raise the level of lava. This can happen several times. When [[Razorbeard]]'s health reaches 0%, the Grolgoth stalls and falls into the lava. [[Razorbeard]] crawls out, dragging an escape pod with him. Before abandoning the ''[[Buccaneer]]'', he says: "I've saved one last little surprise for you", and presses a button on a remote-control device, triggering the Grolgoth's self-destruct mechanism. [[Razorbeard]] in his escape pod flies straight up the mast of the ship, through [[the Crow's Nest]] and to safety. The Grolgoth detonates, blowing the ''[[Buccaneer]]'' to pieces and apparently killing [[Rayman]]. [[Razorbeard]] continues flying upwards until he reaches space.

===Final battle, second phase (PlayStation version)===

In the PlayStation version of ''[[Rayman 2]]'', the second phase is entirely different from the other versions. After the cutscene where [[Rayman]] and [[Razorbeard]] fall down into the ''[[Buccaneer]]'' and [[Rayman]] is saved by [[Ly]] the Fairy, [[Rayman]] will have to fly the [[flying shell]] through a long horizontal pipe, with controls limited to 2D movement. The Grolgoth will be flying backwards, facing [[Rayman]]. [[Rayman]] can [[Magic fist|shoot]] normally from the [[flying shell]], but his [[Magic fist|shots]] are almost ineffective. [[Razorbeard]] will shoot slow-moving energy-balls that [[Rayman]] must avoid, and shoot [[helicopter bomb]]s which can be fired back at him. Should [[Rayman]] get hit, he will not die, but lose health as normal. Every time [[Razorbeard]] has fired six [[helicopter bomb]]s, he will cast a number of spiked mines, which fill increasing amounts of the screen as the battle wears on. [[Rayman]] must find a spot to pass in between the mines without getting hit. After the Grolgoth has reached 30% health, it begins to shoot powerful homing missiles, which fly towards [[Rayman]]. [[Rayman]] must dodge them, after which they will circle around and appear behind him, still homing; [[Rayman]] can then position himself (and the homing missile) towards [[Razorbeard]], so that the homing missile will hit the Grolgoth. [[Razorbeard]] can dodge the missiles if they are not aimed correctly. When [[Razorbeard]]'s health reaches 0, the final cutscene begins as normal.

==In [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3'']]==

The Grolgoth reappears in [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3'']], where it is once again used by the [[Razorbeard|Admiral Razorbeard]] to battle [[Rayman]]. Presumably this Grolgoth is a different unit to the one which was destroyed at the end of ''[[Rayman 2]]''. It appears only in [[Heart of the Ancients]], the final level of the game (excluding bonus levels). As in ''[[Rayman 2]]'', this Grolgoth's battle consists of two separate phases. In the first phase, the Grolgoth is fought in a manner not dissimilar from those of the bosses in [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]]; [[Rayman]] must avoid the Grolgoth's alternating high and low energy blasts while punching its metal [[helicopter bomb]]s back at it in order to damage it. After being damaged 5 times the Grolgoth laughs at [[Rayman]] and passes over to the second phase. In that second phase, [[Rayman]] and the Grolgoth continue their battle in a spacious underground dungeon. [[Rayman]] rides a [[flying shell]], and must manoeuvre it to trick the Grolgoth's homing missiles into striking the Grolgoth itself; this is also how [[Rayman]] defeats the Grolgoth in the PlayStation version of ''[[Rayman 2]]''. Once defeated, this Grolgoth collapses to the ground, destroyed. [[Razorbeard]] is not seen again.

==Trivia==

*In the Japanese version of ''[[Rayman Revolution]]'', the Grolgoth is half yellow and half black.

*The Grolgoth's design was inspired by a Robot Soldier from Hayao Miyazaki's 1987 film ''Laputa: Castle in the Sky''.<ref>YouTube, 'Devs Play S2E09', https://youtu.be/l6AgSHT8Ve0?t=3562</ref>
