Videogame appearances
Bad Rayman first appears at a very late point in Rayman, when the real Rayman finally reaches the Candy Chateau, and has a spell cast upon him by Mister Dark. The evil double appears behind him, and follows him wherever he goes as well as copying his actions. Rayman cannot stand still for too long at this point, because he and the double will die if they come to close contact with each other. However, Bad Rayman will die only as soon as the real Rayman reaches the exit in the area.
He also makes appearances in the Game Boy Color version of the game, in which he appears in a slightly different colour scheme; and in the educational versions of the game, Rayman Junior. Reminiscent to the original, Bad Rayman behaves in the same way - chasing, copying, and causing death upon touch.
Bad Rayman is later alluded in the North American Gamecube and XBox version of Rayman Arena, in which a similar dark skin can be unlocked for Rayman.
Character description
Being an evil clone, Bad Rayman comes in a completely different colour scheme. His skin is grey, his hair and neckerchief is pink, he wears a darker purple shirt which still has the ring, and his shoes and gloves are blue. In the GBC version, this is the same except for the shoes and gloves, which are yellow, and his skin, which is darker than Rayman's. Finally, he has glowing yellow eyes with no pupils.
