In the [[Rayman (Game Boy Color)|Game Boy Color release of ''Rayman'']], Mr Dark has imprisoned the [[Electoon|Toons]] and uses their power for himself, throwing the world into darkness and chaos. Unlike the original, he does not transform himself when he engages in a final boss battle with Rayman. In between each level he can also be seen watching Rayman though a crystal ball.

In [[Arcane Forest]], he casts two spells on Rayman, the first one summoning [[Bad Rayman]], and the second one reversing Rayman's controls.

The final battle starts out with Mr Dark shielding himself from Rayman's [[telescopic fist|fist]] with three bubble-like balls. Then, he slowly rises up, and when he is off screen, he rains fire upon him from above. After ten to fifteen fire balls are dropped, he descends back down to the stage, while still having the shield around himself, and turns into a ball. While in ball form, he randomly floats around the stage trying to ram Rayman. His objective is to hit him while he is in ball form three times. But as he hits him, he gets smaller and smaller, and becomes harder to hit. After hitting him three times, a heart appears at the top of the stage so he can replenish his health. Mr Dark turns back to normal, and then he floats off screen again.

This time, he throws ten meteors at ~~him~~, two at a time. Then, he does the same routine as before: he comes back down, and turns into a ball. But this time, he will stay in ball form for a shorter period than before, and if Rayman can't manage to hit him three times within the time limit, he will turn back to normal and float back up into the sky to throw meteors at him again. If Rayman does hit him three times, a heart will appear once again, and he will rise back up into the sky to unleash his final attack.

This time, he shoots sixteen bolts of lightning. They are shot at the step he was just above on the stage, and can be easily avoided by using the [[Helicopter]] to hover over a lower step for a short time. After the sixteen bolts of lightning are shot, he turns back into ball form. Then, the time he is in ball form for even shorter. But if Rayman manages to hit him three times before he turns back to normal, he has beaten him. He turns back to normal form, burns up, and a spirit shape appears, then he completely fades from existence.

Mr Dark in referred to by name in the manual for ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape]]'', where it is revealed that his defeat at the hands of [[Rayman]] is what convinced the inhabitants of [[the Glade of Dreams]] that the hero was trustworthy. However, he makes no actual appearance in the game.
