Polokus does not appear in ''[[Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc]]'', and his absence is not explained. His next appearance is in ''[[Rayman Origins]]'', where he is now known as the Bubble Dreamer. He has become a relaxed, jolly, whimsical being with a more childish attitude, and now dwells among his people. His appearance has changed: while still a fat, pale, amphibious creature, he no longer wears clothes, and he now has a long orange beard. He has become good friends with [[Rayman]], [[Globox]], the [[Teensie]]s and other characters. A magical instrument he uses to bring his dreams to life is seen for the first time: a wooden bubble-blowing pipe. Bubbles are introduced as a major motif which recurs throughout the game. It is revealed that the [[Electoon]]s are the stuff of Polokus's dreams and the substance of his world. | Polokus does not appear in ''[[Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc]]'', and his absence is not explained.

One day, the Bubble Dreamer and his creations are sleeping at [[the Snoring Tree]], their sound of their snoring annoys an irritable [[Granny]] who dwells deep in the subterranean [[Land of the Livid Dead (Rayman Origins)|Land of the Livid Dead]]. She sends an army of [[Antitoon|Darktoons]], [[Psychlops]] and other nighmare creatures to invade [[the Glade of Dreams]] and put a stop to the heroes' snoring. The creatures capture Rayman and his friends, imprisoning them in cages. Rayman soon escapes and pulls the Bubble Dreamer's beard, causing him to destroy his cage and free himself. [[Murfy]] appears, telling the heroes that in order to restore the Bubble Dreamer's memories (to make more playable characters appear), they should collect [[Electoon]]s. The Bubble Dreamer spends the rest of the game levitating inside the Snoring Tree, sometimes acting crazy, pulling his left eye, clucking like a chicken and pulling his head off. Characters can pull his beard to make him laugh and cause him to give a brief, whimsical description of the player's current character. | One day, the Bubble Dreamer and his creations are sleeping at [[the Snoring Tree]], their sound of their snoring annoys an irritable [[Granny]] who dwells deep in the subterranean [[Land of the Livid Dead (Rayman Origins)|Land of the Livid Dead]].
