Talk:Mr Dark
Mr. Dark (the member) put WAY too much GBC stuff here. There's about twenty images of the Mr Dark fight from the GBC version, and the Final Fight paragraph treats the GBC version is if it's the REAL version. This is frickin' unacceptable.
- First off, sign you posts plz, four tildes [~], simple as. I kinda agree there, there's LOADS of this, in fact I've been meaning to clean up some of the less important ones. --

Darkman
Where does that name come from? I've never heard about it! —Hunchman801 22:20, 9 January 2011 (UTC)
- In the Hoodlum article at the bottom of the page there's an interview with some guy. It claims his name is 'Darkman'. Iheckler9 07:39, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
- It's an interview with Rayman 3's character designer. He gives Mr Dark and the hunter passing mentions when talking about his inspiration for the Hoodlums, and he happens to get Mr Dark's name wrong. I found the mistake somehow endearing, and I didn't think it appropriate to edit the man's words, so I put a [sic] after 'Darkman'. I found the interview on RaymanZone. link —Spiraldoor 13:11, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
- Actually, I've just realised that iHeckler added the name to Mr Dark's page – I thought this was the Talk:Hoodlum page! Hunch is right, the name doesn't belong here. It was a just a mistake by the interviewee, and he's never called 'Darkman' anywhere else. By no means is it to be taken as canon! —Spiraldoor 13:14, 10 January 2011 (UTC)

His HP in GBC
I noticed that the HP in the article is related to the original Rayman 1, but what about the GBC version? Shouldn't it be also listed?
I cannot determine exactly his resistance because he acts differently in this version, 1 HP? 3 HP? More?
Here's the link for quick reference: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzitQyU-sYI

- He takes three times three hits, so 9 HP? —

- Mr Dark has 9 HP in this version. At the beginning of the battle he conjures three bluish energy balls. He then attacks Rayman by raining small fireballs down on him, then curling up into a ball of electricity – this is when Rayman finally gets to attack him. Each punch causes Mr Dark to shrink down to a smaller ball; after three hits (3 HP), the first of the battle's three stages is over. Mr Dark appears at the top of the screen: he now has two bluish energy balls instead of three. The second stage involves larger fireballs, and the third (and final) one involves lightning strikes. Rayman must punch Mr Dark three times in each of the three stages – that adds up to a total of 9 HP, unless charging his fist has some effect on the fight (which I doubt). (I typed all of this before seeing Hunch's response, by the way.) —Spiraldoor

- No, the charged fist doesn't increase damage. It only makes the fist go further. OK, I'll go with 9 HP too. --

Image uploading error
I've been trying to upload an image (the one Matyuv took of Mr Dark in the trailer) but whenever I try it gives me the following error:
- Could not create directory "temp/7/79".
Is anyone else experiencing this problem? —Spiraldoor 14:53, 8 June 2011 (UTC)
- It is happening the same thing to me. Huuuuunch? --Haruka 15:11, 8 June 2011 (UTC)
- It's the same for me. It's a problem for every image! —RaySpola 20:38, 8 June 2011 (UTC)
- The problem should be solved now, I was able to upload the image: see File:Mrdarkteensie1.jpg. — 20:06, 8 June 2011 (UTC)
Irrelevant picture
Even when Mr. Dark was beaten in the same level, I think this picture doesn't have anything to do with Mr. Dark himself:
The same image can be found in the Moons article, so there's no reason to repeat it. Also, some space is required, because there's a new image of Mr Dark (The one from Rayman Origins) that should be used as his new profile picture (because it's the newest). The place where it's situated right now deforms the wiki, so I'm going to replace the picture of Mr Dark using his binoculars with the new image from Rayman Origins, and then I'm going replace the irrelevant picture of the moons with the image of Mr Dark using his binoculars (so it won't get lost).--Sergiomonty 04:16, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
