'''Professor Pascal''' is a major antagonist and the sixth boss of ''[[Rayman: The Dark Magician's Reign of Terror]]''. He's a sadistic mad scientist of {{rw|Rayman's species}} and a dear friend of the [[Dark Magician]], responsible for creating the [[Techno Towers]] and [[Secret Lab]], as well as the machines and experiments found within them such as [[B.A.D Machine]].

Professor Pascal's existence is mentionned many times throughout the game, until [[Rayman]] finally meets Pascal in person in [[Pascal|the level of the same name]]. After threatening to torture and cook [[Rayman]], Pascal teleports onto a flying machine equipped with two toxic [[cannon]]s to fight [[Rayman|the hero]]. A [[Big Power]] can be picked up from the right corner of the area to make the fight easier.
Each [[cannon]] has five health points tied to Pascal's health and they attack [[Rayman]] relentlessly by shooting toxic projectiles directly aimed at him.

Once they're both destroyed, Pascal deploys a bouncy spring on the bottom of his machine, dangerously jumping around the place. Some [[cloud]]s appear during this second phase, allowing [[Rayman]] to reach a [[Simple Power]] and a [[flying cube]] [[switch]]. [[Rayman]] must use the [[flying cube]] to hit Pascal three times, after which the spring will disappear and Pascal will fly upwards to a heavily protected area, no longer attacking [[Rayman]].
[[Rayman]] must then control the [[flying cube]] through various obstacles above, including toxic [[cannon]]s on the walls, so he can reach and damage Pascal two more times.

While his health bar displays twenty health points like all bosses in the game and he loses one point per hit dealt to his [[cannon]]s during the first phase, it takes less total hits to defeat him as the [[flying cube]] does two points of damage once he loses his [[cannon]]s, for a total of fifteen health points across all phases.
If the player is fast enough, [[Rayman]] can hit Pascal with the [[flying cube]] while he's flying towards his final phase, making it possible to finish him off in only one trip of the [[flying cube]].

Once hit a final time, professor Pascal's machine blows into bits and he's sent flying away, never to be heard of again, and [[Rayman]] is rewarded with five [[coin]]s.
If [[Rayman]] later returns to confront Pascal again, the player can skip the battle by pressing the Enter key.
