Hunch confirmed the correct translation of "Lunette": Spyglass. The R2 template and the title name must be changed. (I don't know how to do that.) |

The | The Spyglass Pirate's role in the N64, PC, Dreamcast and DS versions of ''Rayman 2'' is very small. He appears in many cinematics in which he reports to [[Admiral Razorbeard]] regarding [[Rayman]]'s progress and whereabouts, but does little more. In every version, he debuts in the cinematic preceding Rayman's first visit to [[the Bayou]]. | ||

At multiple points he encounters Rayman and brings with him a difficult challenge. The lackey first strikes chronologically in ''[[Rayman Revolution]]'', in which he leads the attack on [[Clark]] and Rayman at the entrance to the [[Rainbow Creek]]. His next appearance, also ''Revolution''-exclusive, is a boss fight: the Spyglass Pirate jumps into the Boss Biditank to personally battle Rayman. The Spyglass Pirate next encounters Rayman in both the PlayStation and PlayStation 2 versions at the end of [[the Tomb of the Ancients]], where it is seen that the Glasses Pirate is controlling [[Clark]] via remote control. The Glasses Pirate makes his final chronological appearance solely in the PlayStation version, at the end of the [[The Iron Mountains|Gloomy Island]], where he makes his final attempt to get rid of Rayman with his remote-controlled [[Robot Dinosaur]], which he had been using to search for the fourth [[Four Masks of Polokus|Mask of Polokus]]. Fortunately for Rayman, the Glasses Pirate had forgotten to fill up the [[Robot Dinosaur]]'s fuel tank, and the [[Baby Globox]]es escape with Rayman. This is the only time dialogue occurs between the lackey and Rayman. | ||

He then orders the Spyglass Pirate to prepare the [[Grolgoth]] for him in the meantime. However, it is not clear whether this punishment was ever carried out, and the fate of the Spyglass Pirate remains unknown. | ||
