Grappling fist: Difference between revisions
Castlefania (talk | contribs) Like I said in a previous edit, you CAN grab lives with the grappling fist in Rayman GBC. Now, in my previous edit, I mistakenly said this was the only way to get a life in one of the Rocky Peak levels; turns out it's not, you can also get it with a well-timed jump and helicopter. Still, I can assure you the grapling fist CAN be used to grab lives. Just tried it again to make sure I wasn't wrong. Try it for yourself if you don't trust me ;) |

The '''grappling fist''' is the third power that [[Rayman]] is bestowed by [[Betilla]] the Fairy in [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'' game]]. A variation of it appears in most [[Rayman (series)|''Rayman'' titles]]. | |||

[[Rayman]] is given the grappling fist power at the end of [[Moskito's Nest]]. It is normally the third power he receives, however, it is possible to get the [[helicopter]] before it. It allows [[Rayman]]'s [[Telescopic fist|fist]] to grab things such as extra [[Life|lives]] and [[flying ring]]s. In [[Rayman (Game Boy Color)|the Game Boy Color version of ''Rayman'']], [[Rayman]] is given this ability by the [[Ting]]s at the end of part 4 of [[Rocky Peaks]]. | |||

In this game, the [[telescopic fist]] is replaced with the [[magic fist]], and therefore the grappling fist does not technically appear, however [[Rayman]] is granted a similar ability by [[Ly]] the Fairy at the end of [[the Fairy Glade]]. The [[Silver Lum]] she gives him changes the color of his projectiles from white to blue, and most importantly, it lets him grab onto [[Purple Lum]]s, which are used in the same way as the [[flying ring]]s from [[Rayman 1|the original game]]. | In this game, the [[telescopic fist]] is replaced with the [[magic fist]], and therefore the grappling fist does not technically appear, however [[Rayman]] is granted a similar ability by [[Ly]] the Fairy at the end of [[the Fairy Glade]].

In ''[[Rayman 3]]'', the grappling fist is replaced by the [[LockJaw]] power-up can of the [[Laser-Washing Powder]], which allows [[Rayman]] to swing on [[flying hook]]s, similar to the [[flying ring]]s or [[Purple Lum]]s.
