The '''Glasses Pirate''' <sup>[http://www.raymanpc.com/wiki/en/File:Gorilla_Pirate_and_Glasses_Pirate_names_source.jpg [source]]</sup> is a unique [[Robo-Pirate]] character who appears in ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape]]'' and its remakes, as well as making cameo appearances in ''[[Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc]]'' and ''[[Rayman Dictées]]''. | |||
==Description== | ==Description== | ||
The appearance of the Glasses Pirate is somewhat different from those of the other [[Robo-Pirates]]s. While he is still robotic, he looks more like a slightly chubby stereotypical pirate. The lower part of his mechanical body is coloured green to resemble trousers. He wears a yellow scarf covered with red polka-dots around his waist, and has a red-and-white striped bandana tied round his head. A pair of armless black sunlasses cover his eyes. Like most [[Robo-Pirate]]s, he is noticeably taller than [[Admiral Razorbeard]]. | |||
The Glasses Pirate appears to have been in charge of the ground operations during [[Admiral Razorbeard]]'s campaign. He was a mechanical genius, and created many dangerous devices. | |||
==Role in the | ==Role in the games== | ||
The | The Glasses 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]]. | ||

In the two Sony versions of ''Rayman 2'', the | In the two Sony versions of ''Rayman 2'', the Glasses Pirate is given much more importance. 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 Glasses Pirate jumps into the Boss Biditank to personally battle Rayman. The Glasses 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. | ||
Before the final boss battle in [[ | Before the final boss battle in [[the Crow's Nest]], [[Admiral Razorbeard]] says that he will punish the Glasses Pirate for his consistent failure to stop [[Rayman]] by seeing how well he would swim in molten lava. He then orders the Glasses 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 Glasses Pirate remains unknown. | ||
