==Description== | |||
Like the other members of [[Mosquito|his species]], Moskito is a giant flying limbless insect with large, round eyes and a prominent telescopic proboscis. | |||
During the battle against him in the PlayStation and Sega Saturn versions, and during both the chase and the battle in the [[Rayman (Atari Jaguar)|Atari Jaguar]] version, Moskito is red-skinned with red wings, pink gloves, a grey proboscis, and grey stripes and shoes. But on both occasions in the PC version and its ports, and only during the chase in the PlayStation and Sega Saturn versions, Moskito appears purple-skinned with white wings, white gloves, a yellow proboscis, and yellow stripes and shoes, like [[Bzzit]]. | During the battle against him in the PlayStation and Sega Saturn versions, and during both the chase and the battle in the [[Rayman (Atari Jaguar)|Atari Jaguar]] version, Moskito is red-skinned with red wings, pink gloves, a grey proboscis, and grey stripes and shoes.

When Moskito is first encountered in the third part of [[Moskito's Nest]], the final level of [[the Dream Forest]], he chases [[Rayman]] with a giant [[prickly fruit]]. He returns in the fifth part of the same level, where he must now be defeated. During the battle, Moskito attacks [[Rayman]] by trying to poke him with his proboscis and uses [[prickly fruit]]s of various sizes to attack. With precise timing, it is possible to hit him twice per turn, before he flies up and away after the first hit. After 12 hits, Moskito is defeated and falls to the ground as [[Rayman]] celebrates his victory. | When Moskito is first encountered in the third part of [[Moskito's Nest]], the final level of [[the Dream Forest]], he chases [[Rayman]] with a giant [[prickly fruit]].
