'''Bad Rayman''' is an evil clone of [[Rayman]]. In one of the final stages of [[Rayman 1|the original game]], [[Mr Dark]] uses his magic to create Bad Rayman for the sole purpose of destroying his original counterpart. He can only be defeated by finishing the level.
'''Bad Rayman''', also known as '''Dark Rayman''', is an enemy which appear in [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]], its [[Rayman (Game Boy Color)|Game Boy Color]] and [[Rayman Advance|Game Boy Advance]] ports and in ''[[Rayman Junior]]''.  


Bad Rayman is referred to as Rayman's '''Wicked Double''' in ''[[Rayman Junior]]'' and '''Dark Rayman''' in ''[[Rayman Advance]]'' and ''[[Rayman Legends]]''.
==Description==
 
Bad Rayman is a clone of [[Rayman]], magically created by [[Mr Dark]] in an attempt to destroy the original.  
A playable character in ''[[Rayman Origins]]'', ''[[Rayman Jungle Run]]'', ''[[Rayman Legends]]'' and ''[[Rayman Fiesta Run]]'', named [[Raymesis]], is almost identical to Bad Rayman. ''[[Rayman Arena]]'' also features an unlockable skin named [[Dark Rayman (Rayman Arena)|Dark Rayman]], but this character bears little resemblance to Bad Rayman, despite being based on the same concept. [[Raymesis]] and [[Dark Rayman (Rayman Arena)|Dark Rayman]] also are evil clones of [[Rayman]]. Their connection to Bad Rayman is unknown.
 
This character became playable in ''[[Rayman Adventures]]'' under the name Shadow Ray.


==Description==
His appearance is very similar to that of [[Rayman]], but with different colouration. He seems to have somehow inherited Mr Dark's glowing yellow eyes. In ''[[Rayman 1|Rayman]]'', Bad Rayman's skin is grey, his hair and neckerchief are pink, his gloves are light blue, and his shirt and shoes are dark blue. He also has a green tongue, which can be noticed by having him make a [[grimace]] in ''[[Rayman Designer]]'' or ''[[Rayman Junior]]''.

In the ''[[Rayman Junior]]'', Bad Rayman appears in the penultimate level, [[Tasty chase]]. [[Betilla the Fairy|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 also makes appearances in the [[Rayman (GBC)|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 towards the end of the game, in the [[Arcane Forest]]. Bad Rayman behaves in the same way as he did in the original game - chasing, copying, and causing death upon touch.

But he doesn't die if he manages to kill [[Rayman]], apart if the hero falls into a chasm.
 
When [[Rayman]] reaches the exit in the area, Bad Rayman doesn't disappear, like in [[Rayman 1|the original game]]. And as he is never seen again in the game, his fate remains unknown.
 
It is possible to kill Bad Rayman in this game, by flying above a specific floor of red spikes.

===''Rayman Legends''===
Bad Rayman, named Dark Rayman, makes a return as an antagonist in ''[[Rayman Legends]]'', and acts as he did in [[Rayman 1|the original game]]. He appears in the last Invasion levels, in which [[Rayman]], in addition to having to reach a group of [[Teensie]]s before a certain amount of time while defeating enemies from another world and avoiding obstacles, must also avoid contact with Bad Rayman, who follows him and repeats his moves. This makes these levels some of the most challenging in the game. Bad Rayman's appearance is different from that of the previous games, as he is now almost completely dark with a purple aura emanating from his body. At certain points, Bad Rayman's crazy evil laughter can be heard, revealing a high pitched, echoed version of [[Rayman]]'s voice. This laughter, along with other variable noises, can be heard at the beginning of the challenge or when [[Rayman]] is defeated.

===Other appearances===
Bad Rayman was intended to appear in Phoenix Interactive's cancelled ''[[Rayman 4 (cancelled prototype)|Rayman 4]]'' project. One piece of concept art produced for the game shows [[Rayman]] standing in an enormous cathedral-like building, which is decorated with statues and stained-glass windows in the likeness of Bad Rayman. These depictions show Bad Rayman holding swords, carrying spears, wearing suits of armour and breathing fire. Here he appears to be mainly black in colour, and his eyes are red rather than yellow. Engravings on the walls mention the name 'Dark Rayman'. The artwork seems to imply that Bad Rayman would have been an enemy in the game – possibly a boss, or even the main villain.
