| '''The Caves of Skops''' (French: '''''Les Caves de Skops''''') is the fifth world in [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]]. It consists of a gigantic cave system, which sprawls through the underground of [[the valley]]. Most of the caverns are filled with water, and the apparent absence of life gives the place an eerie atmosphere, as the sound of water dropping into pools is the only thing to disturb the deadly silence. Some of them are so dark that it is impossible to see anything without a [[firefly]]. [[Joe the Extra-Terrestrial]]'s diner is located on a beach, in front of a subterranean lake. [[Rayman]] will have to punch the plug that turns on the diner lights, as well as a network of [[flying saucer]]s, held with wires which make up [[Joe the Extra-Terrestrial|Joe]]'s electricity system. Strange platforms, [[rebounding hammer]]s and abandoned treasures can also be found amongst stalactites and stalagmites. As [[Rayman]] reaches the depths of the caves, he starts finding [[lava ball]]s, and even unstable lakes of lava, which can start rising because of tremors.
| |
| Note that in the ''[[Rayman Junior]]'' games, wooden palisades and dancing mushrooms of various colours can also be found.

| |
| | |
| The enemies in the Caves of Skops include [[antitoon]]s, [[hunter]]s, [[stone dog]]s, [[Spider (Caves of Skops)|spiders]] and [[large-mouthed fish]]. The boss is [[Mr Skops]], a giant scorpion. [[Rayman]] will meet him at the end of [[Mr Skops' Stalactites]], and fight him after waking him up.

| Once beaten, [[Rayman]] hears [[Betilla the Fairy]] calling for help.
