'''Yellow Lums''' are the most important of all [[Lum]]s. They, along with the [[Red Lum|Red]], [[Blue Lum|Blue]], and [[Purple Lum]]s, created the god [[Polokus]], who went on to create [[the Glade of Dreams]]. There are exactly 1000 Yellow Lums in existence; when united (which seems to be their natural state), they form [[the Heart of the World]], which was shattered into its constituent Yellow Lums by the [[Robo-Pirate]] army prior to the beginning of ''[[Rayman 2]]'' and [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3'']], and by the [[Rabbid]]s in [[Rayman Raving Rabbids (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman Raving Rabbids'']]. In such cases [[Rayman]] is required to collect all of them throughout the course of the games; [[The Heart of the World|the Heart]] (which contains them) is seen for the first time in [[the Fairy Council]] in ''[[Rayman 3]]''. [[Rayman Raving Rabbids (Game Boy Advance)|The Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman Raving Rabbids'']] contradicts the previous games regarding the number of Yellow Lums, featuring 1550 of them to collect, rather than the previously established 1000.

There is some evidence to suggest that the [[Great Protoon]] and [[the Heart of the World]] are in fact the same object; the reason for its differing appearance in [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]] and ''[[Rayman 3]]'' may be its destruction by the [[Robo-Pirate]]s and its subsequent reconstruction by [[Rayman]] and the [[Teensie]]s. If this is true, then the 1000 Yellow Lums (in the form of the [[Great Protoon]]) could have actually have first appeared in [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]].

In most versions of the game, there are 1000 Yellow Lums to collect, which are scattered across the many levels that [[Rayman]] will travel through. Many will be encountered individually, floating at the same spot until collected, others have merged into [[Super Yellow Lums]], which are worth 5 normal Yellow Lums, and some can be found hidden in [[cage]]s. As [[Rayman]]'s count of Yellow Lums increases, he will unlock more of [[the Knowledge of the World]], which contains lore based on the past of [[Polokus]] and the current situation with the [[Robo-Pirate]]s. It is because of the blowing of [[the Heart of the World]] and the scattering of the Yellow Lums that [[Rayman]], [[Ly]], the [[Teensie]]s and possibly many others are in a weakened state at the beginning of the game.

Yellow Lums are also required to unlock passages through to [[the Hall of Doors]] and the worlds containing each of the [[Four masks of Polokus]]. 5 (10 in the PS1 version) are required in [[the Woods of Light]] to allow for a [[Grand Minimus]] to open a door leading to [[the Hall of Doors]] ([[the Isle of Doors]] in the Dreamcast, [[Rayman 2 (iOS)|iOS]] and [[Rayman 3D|3DS]] versions, or [[the Front]] in ''[[Rayman Revolution]]'').

Yellow Lums do not make an appearance in the main console versions of ''[[Rayman 3]]'', however, they do make appearances in both portable titles. They have the same spherical form as the [[Ting]]s from ''[[Rayman 1]]'', but are coloured Yellow to reflect their role assigned from ''[[Rayman 2]]'' as pieces of energy from [[the Heart of the World]]. [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|The Game Boy Advance version]] has a total of 1000 Yellow Lums, while [[Rayman 3 (mobile phone)|the mobile phone version]] merely has 175 in total.

Much like in ''[[Rayman 2]]'', the [[1000th Yellow Lum]] is secluded from the regular path a player would take to normally beat the game, however, unlike ''[[Rayman 2]]'', where the final Yellow Lum was merely hidden in a secret passage, the final Yellow Lum in [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3'']] is hidden in the [[Lum Challenge]]. This level serves as a final gauntlet, lacking enemies but having extreme platforming, in order to reach the Lum.
