Bad Rayman, also known as Rayman's Wicked Double in Rayman Junior, Dark Rayman in Rayman Advance (though not to be confused with the Dark Rayman from certain versions of Rayman Arena) and Dark Ray in Rayman Origins is an evil clone of Rayman created by Mr Dark for the sole purpose of destroying his original counterpart before reaching his hideout.

Character description

Bad Rayman's skin is grey, his hair and neckerchief are pink, he wears a dark blue shirt which still has the ring, and his shoes and gloves are also blue.

Videogame appearances

Rayman

He first appears at a very late point in all versions of Rayman except for the Atari Jaguar version, when the real Rayman finally reaches the second part of Mr Dark's Dare in Candy Château, and has a spell cast upon him by Mr Dark. The evil double appears behind him, and follows him wherever he goes as well as copying his actions. Rayman cannot stand still for too long at this point, because he and the double will die instantly if they come to close contact with each other. However, Bad Rayman will die as soon as the real Rayman reaches the exit in the area.

In Rayman Advance, Bad Rayman is called Dark Rayman, which has fuelled numerous debates on his real name, and the nature of the relationship between the two.

Rayman Junior

In the educational versions of the game, Bad Rayman appears in the penultimate level, tasty chase. Betilla refers to him as Rayman's "Wicked Double". However, he does not chase Rayman during the whole level, but only makes short appearances and disappears after a certain distance.

Bad Rayman in the Game Boy Color version of the game

Game Boy Color version of Rayman

Bad Rayman also makes appearances in the Game Boy Color version of the game, in which he appears in a slightly different colour scheme; his shoes and gloves are yellow, and his skin is darker than Rayman's. He is found at the end of the game, in Arcane Forest. Bad Rayman behaves in the same way as he did in the original game - chasing, copying, and causing death upon touch.
