Before fighting [[Rayman]], Mr Dark casts strange spells on him as he makes progress through [[Candy Château]], such as creating [[Bad Rayman]], reversing [[Rayman]]'s movements, making him run uncontrollably and eventually stealing his [[telescopic fist]]. Following this, by the time Rayman reaches his hideout, he tries to destroy him by trapping him between deadly walls of fire and throws fire balls at him. When his situation seems desperate, a group of [[Electoon]]s rescue [[Rayman]] by giving him back his [[telescopic fist]]. The final battle then begins: Rayman must battle Mr Dark, who transforms into hybrids of the previous five bosses. These hybrids each have Mr Dark's face as their resistance icon.

The second trailer of ''[[Rayman Origins]]'' shows a brief glimpse of a [[Teensie]] with a top hat and a dark cloak, standing on a stone platform, surrounded by [[Darktoon]]s and [[Psychlops]]. Several months later, clearer artwork of the character was released, and the official website confirmed him to be Mr Dark, stating ‘The archenemy from Rayman 1 returns’. Like [[Betilla the Fairy]] and most other returning ''[[Rayman 1|Rayman]]'' characters, Mr Dark has been redesigned for this game, and is no longer limbless. The game itself contains no references to Mr Dark making a plan to take over [[the Glade of Dreams]] as in previous games, as the game does not seem to have a fixed plot or a real villain. However, in the level '[[The Reveal]]', the heroes discover that [[the Magician]] is the one responsible for the evil steampunk empire of the [[Moody Clouds]]. A diagram on the wall explains that he has been collecting the heroes' [[Lum]]s throughout the game and using them to power his machines. In response to his cover being blown, the Magician rips the golden star off his top hat, showing more clearly his resemblance with the artwork of Mr Dark, and possibly revealing him to have been Mr Dark the whole time, faking a friendship with Rayman.
