In ''[[Rayman 3]]'', Reflux was looked upon as the most powerful of all [[Knaaren]]. [[Rayman]] is forced to confront Reflux in a mid-game battle in [[the Desert of the Knaaren]], and defeats him, destroying his reputation as [[Knaaren]] Champion. From then on, he strives for revenge, power, and dominance. He carries a strong grudge and deep hatred against [[Rayman]] after losing his battle with him.

[[André]] goads him into stealing the [[Sceptre of the Leptys]] from his king, [[Gumsi]], so that the two villains can gain the power of the [[Leptys]] and use it to defeat [[Rayman]]. At the end of [[the Tower of the Leptys]], the game's final level, Reflux battles [[Rayman]] for a second and final time, and morphs through several physical forms using the power provided by the [[Sceptre of the Leptys|Sceptre]], which he embeds into his in order to access its full power. [[André]] also seems to be inside of Reflux during the battle. | ||

However the Knaaren that corner him are quickly sent away by Reflux who announces to [[Rayman]] that he will be fighting in the arena. [[Rayman]] is [[cage]]d and taken to the aforementioned arena where he finds [[Globox]], also caged, with the [[Knaaren]] ruler [[Gumsi]]. | ||

Reflux took for himself the [[Leptys]]' power which [[André]] began to use in order to mass-produce [[Black Lum]]s. They then took refuge at [[the Tower of the Leptys]]. [[Rayman]] climbed to the top of the tower and confronted Reflux a second time. | ||

After [[ | After the [[Sceptre of the Leptys|Sceptre]] has received thorough damage, Reflux utilizes more energy to levitate himself as well as the fighting area. [[Rayman]] must use the [[Throttle Copter]] to scale the levitating rock before it all vanishes and reach the [[Shock Rocket]].

As [[Globox]] flys the [[Armaguiddon]] he found in the last segment, [[Rayman]] fires a weapon with Reflux on their trail to try to, again, hit the [[Sceptre of the Leptys|Sceptre]]. Finally, [[Rayman]] had severely damaged the [[Sceptre of the Leptys|Sceptre]], and Reflux, with no energy source left, falls to the ground, crystallizes, and shatters, releasing [[André]]. | ||

In ''[[Rayman: Hoodlums' Revenge]]'', it is revealed that some fragment of [[André]]'s spirit lingered on in [[Globox]]. As the game goes on, [[André]]'s influence over [[Globox]] grows, making [[Globox]] nastier and more mean-spirited. At the end of the game, [[André]] finally succeeds in transforming [[Globox]] into a clone of Reflux, and fights [[Rayman]] in this cloned body. The [[André]]-controlled Reflux-clone [[Globox]] drinks [[plum juice]] to make himself more powerful. When [[Rayman]] defeats him, [[André]]'s spirit flees and [[Globox]] reverts to his original form with no memory of the possession. | In ''[[Rayman: Hoodlums' Revenge]]'', it is revealed that some fragment of [[André]]'s spirit lingered on in [[Globox]].
