The '''Grolgoth''' is a giant robot which [[Admiral Razorbeard]] uses in an attempt to put a stop to [[Rayman]] at [[the Crow's Nest]]. Piloted by [[Admiral Razorbeard|Razorbeard]], it is the final boss of ''[[Rayman 2]]'' and [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance/N-GAGE version of ''Rayman 3'']].

The Grolgoth is a large machine comprising of a large, golden-coloured bulk, with articulable arms and legs, similar to those of the [[Robo-Pirate]]s. The Grolgoth's hemisphere-shaped head can extend from the body, revealing the entrance to this robotic marvel. [[Admiral Razorbeard|Razorbeard]] jumps in and slides down a rope. At the bottom is located a cockpit, from which [[Admiral Razorbeard|Razorbeard]] controls the machine. For its right hand, it has a cannon, which fires [[helicopter bomb]]s that [[Rayman]] will have to [[Magic fist|shoot]] back at the Grolgoth in order to hurt it. The other hand has a hook, which sees no use in the battle. The Grolgoth can also shoot large energy balls from the soles of its feet.

A diagram of the Grolgoth can be found on a table in the [[Pirate Factory]], an area exclusive to ''[[Rayman Revolution]]''. This paradoxically seems to suggest that the [[Robo-Pirate]]s created the Grolgoth, or had some awareness of it prior to the cutscene in which [[Admiral Razorbeard]] purchases it from [[the General]].

The Grolgoth reappears in [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3'']], where it is once again used by the [[Admiral Razorbeard]] to battle [[Rayman]]. Presumably this Grolgoth is a different unit to the one which was destroyed at the end of ''[[Rayman 2]]''. It appears only in [[Heart of the Ancients]], the final level of the game (excluding bonus levels). As in ''[[Rayman 2]]'', this Grolgoth's battle consists of two separate phases. In the first phase, the Grolgoth is fought in a manner not dissimilar from those of the bosses in [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]]; [[Rayman]] must avoid the Grolgoth's alternating high and low energy blasts while punching its metal [[helicopter bomb]]s back at it in order to damage it. After being damaged 5 times the Grolgoth laughs at [[Rayman]] and passes over to the second phase. In that second phase, [[Rayman]] and the Grolgoth continue their battle in a spacious underground dungeon. [[Rayman]] rides a [[flying shell]], and must manoeuvre it to trick the Grolgoth's homing missiles into striking the Grolgoth itself; this is also how [[Rayman]] defeats the Grolgoth in the PlayStation version of ''[[Rayman 2]]''. Once defeated, this Grolgoth collapses to the ground, destroyed. [[Admiral Razorbeard|Razorbeard]] is not seen again.
