==In ''Rayman 1''==
==In ''[[Rayman 1|Rayman]]''==
Fish make their first appearance in ''[[Rayman 1]]'', in the [[Dream Forest]], appearing as large [[piranha]]s, who soon become one of the recurring elements of the following games. They jump out of the water and take only one hit to defeat; when this task is done, the piranha's teeth shatter.

Fish make their first appearance in [[the Dream Forest]], the first land in [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]]. Large [[piranha]]s leap out of the water and obstruct [[Rayman]]'s path; these became one of the recurring elements of [[Rayman (series)|the series]]. Rayman can defeat a piranha by delivering a punch with his [[telescopic fist]]; this shatters the piranha's teeth and sends it tumbling back into the water.


Fish re-appear in the [[Caves of Skops]], in the [[Eat at Joe's]] level. There are three kinds here, all with over-exaggerated facial features: One has a large nose, useful for pushing bouys around, one has lots of teeth, which are very effective at hurting [[Rayman]] and the other species has an abundance of hair, which serves no purpose in the level. They do not appear again in the game.
[[Fish (Eat at Joe's)|Three more varieties of fish]] appear in [[Eat at Joe's]], a level in [[the Caves of Skops]], the fifth of the game's six lands. Each of these three varieties of fish bears an exaggerated facial feature: one type has an oversized nose, with which it aids Rayman by nudging buoyant platforms through the water; another type has an oversized cycloptic eye, with which it passively observes the action; and another type has an oversized mouth and teeth, with which it attacks Rayman. These three varieties of fish appear only in the final part of this level, and are not found anywhere else.


==In ''Rayman 2''==
==In ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape]]''==
[[File:TheFairyGladeDCFish.jpg|thumb|left|320px|Strange fish appear in [[the Fairy Glade]]]]
Fish appear much more often in ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape|Rayman 2]]'' than they did in [[Rayman 1|the original game]]. The firt time a fish is seen is when [[Rayman]] arrives in [[the Fairy Glade]] to search for [[Ly the Fairy|Ly]]. Several types of fish can be seen in the nearby ponds; these fish are passive, and some bear a slight resemblance to [[Fish (Eat at Joe's)#Large-eyed fish|the big-eyed fish]] from the previous game. Later on in the same level, Rayman must cross a marsh filled with polluted water. [[Murfy]] telepathically advises Rayman not to swim in it via a nearby [[Stone of Thought]]. The marsh is infested with tiny [[piranha]]s. This piranha variety is found in many levels throughout the game; they devour Rayman should he fall into dangerous waters. Large piranhas like those in the original game first re-appear in [[Whale Bay]], where they attempt to eat [[Carmen|Carmen the Whale]]'s [[air bubble]]s in order to soothe their heartburn.

==In ''[[Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc]]''==
[[File:PiranhaR3_2.jpg|thumb|right|320px|Piranhas in [[the Bog of Murk]]]]
The large piranhas return once more in ''[[Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc|Rayman 3]]'', although these ones have mechanical jaws similar to bear-traps. At one point in the [[Clearleaf Forest]], [[Rayman]] and [[Globox]] must ascend a rushing waterfall whilst being pursued by piranhas. The same type of piranha is enountered again in [[the Bog of Murk]], where they can be [[telescopic fist|punched]] and defeated by Rayman.


Fish appear in ''[[Rayman 2]]'' more often than they did in ''Rayman 1''. The firt time a fish is seen is when [[Rayman]] attempts to cross [[The Fairy Glade]] in search of [[Ly]]. Under the water, several types of fish can be seen. Later on in the Glade, Rayman must cross a marsh full of dirty water. A [[Stone of Thought]] is next to it; [[Murfy]]'s advice is to not swim in it. True enough, the marsh is infested with [[piranha]]s. Piranhas are next seen in [[Whale Bay]], trying to eat [[Carmen]] the Whale's [[air bubble]]s, since they suffer from heartburn. Carmen herself is not strictly a fish, whales are actually mammals.
Another type of fish is encountered in the underwater section of [[the Land of the Livid Dead]]. These fish swim passively about and do not react to Rayman's presence.

The piranhas appear twice more in the console version of ''[[Rayman 3]]''. At a specific part in [[Clearleaf Forest]], [[Rayman]] and [[Globox]] must ascend a rushing waterfall whilst avoiding piranhas. Once the duo have reached the top, the piranhas stop attacking.
