The '''Blue Punch''' is a power-up that appears in ''[[Rayman Origins]]'' and ''[[Rayman Legends]]''.

===In ''[[Rayman Origins]]''===
==In ''Rayman Origins''==
The Blue Punch is an extremely rare power-up in ''[[Rayman Origins]]''. Players can acquire it only in the second phase of the game, when [[Helena Handbasket]] tells the heroes to go and find the [[Four Kings]] of [[the Glade of Dreams]]. The Blue Punch power-up can usually be found inside a well-hidden [[bubble]]. Collecting it gives the player a set of seven blue boxing gloves (each of which has a face that highly resembles that of a [[Lum]]). These boxing gloves can be thrown by pressing the attack button. They move linearly, instantly destroying every enemy it touches on its path. The Blue Punch is considerably more powerful than a regular attack, as it can defeat enemies that are usually indestructible, like [[Robot (Rayman Origins)|robots]]. When all seven of the boxing gloves are used, the player character returns to their regular attack pattern; however, if they get hurt by an enemy before using up all of the gloves, they instantly lose them all. In this sense, the Blue Punch resembles the [[Power Fist]], a similar power-up which increased the strength of [[Rayman]]'s [[magic fist]] in ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape|Rayman 2]]''. The player can reload their gloves if they gather another Blue Punch bubble; however, the limit is seven gloves per character. At one point in the development of the game, the Blue Punch gloves were larger, and each character could hold only four at a time. A scrapped yellow version of the Blue Punch, named the [[Super Punch]], was found in the game's files; however, its purpose and function are unknown.

===In ''[[Rayman Legends]]''===
<gallery widths="320px" heights="180px">
The Blue Punch returns in ''Rayman Legends'' as a level specific power-up, unlike in ''[[Rayman Origins]]'', where it can be obtained as a collectible. In certain levels, a [[Teensy Sorcerer]] will grant the heroes the power-up. Also unlike in ''[[Rayman Origins]]'', they are now unlimited, allowing the Heroes to use the power-up to their hearts' content when in a level granting its use. The fist itself behaves the same as in ''[[Rayman Origins]]'': when attacking, a Blue Punch is launched in the direction attacked, and by spin attacking, or throwing a charged punch, the Blue Punch will turn red and be set alight on take-off, increasing its speed and the amount of damage it is capable of dealing. It also one of the only weakneses of the [[Dark Creature|Dark Creatures]]

==In ''Rayman Fiesta Run''==
[[File:GoldenPunch.png|thumb|110px|The Ultimate Flying Punch]]
The Flying Punch returns in ''[[Rayman Fiesta Run]]'', with the same appearance as in ''[[Rayman Origins]]''. Just like in ''[[Rayman Legends]]'', the heroes can shoot as many punches as they want, but it is now a time limited power-up. The Flying Punch notifies the player that it is about to run out by flashing.
''[[Rayman Fiesta Run]]'' also introduces a variant named the Ultimate Flying Punch which is golden in color and grants unlimited punches until the end of the level, just like the Flying Punch in ''[[Rayman Legends]]''. The Ultimate Flying Punch can be bought for 60 [[Lum (UbiArt games)|Lums]] for one use in the level it was bought in, or the player can buy it for unlimited use in any level in the shop menu for either real world currency or 10.000 [[Lum (UbiArt games)|Lums]].
==In ''Brawlhalla''==
Flying Punches appear in ''Brawlhalla'' as [[Rayman]]’s down aerial attack. They use their appearance from ''[[Rayman Legends]]''. When used, [[Rayman]] throws three Flying Punches downwards onto his enemies (an action that is impossible to perform in the [[Rayman (series)|''Rayman'' games]], as attacking downwards in the air triggers the [[crush attack]]).
