—Raymesis, Rayman comics: The Grand Slam

Raymesis is a major antagonist in the Rayman series, being an evil clone created by Mr Dark to destroy the original.

in Rayman Adventures console edition

Raymesis is part of Mr Dark’s henchmen (the others being Moskito, Mr Sax, Mr Stone, Space Mama, and Mr Skops), and leads them during the presumed final battle. He jumps on their backs, depending on who is attacking them at the moment. The henchmen each get knocked out of the window when they are defeated, leaving Raymesis to fight the heroes alone. Once defeated, he also flies out of the window. He is seen messing around in the castle in the credits.

in Rayman Quest

He is a major character in the game. After Rayman and Globox escape Mr Dark’s Castle, Raymesis is sent to hunt them down, fighting as a mid-boss in each world, always failing to defeat them.

After the last fight with him, he goes back to Mr Dark’s Castle, where Mr Dark is disappointed that Raymesis has failed him so many times, and the latter begs for his life. Mr Dark tells him that he won’t destroy him, however, he creates another evil clone of Rayman to kill Raymesis and replace him, leading to the first level where you actually play as him as he escapes the castle with plenty of death traps.

When the heroes reach the final world, Mr Dark’s Castle, they see a traumatized Raymesis telling them that he’s with them now. Everyone else is suspicious, but Rayman says that he seems like he really needs help this time. So the heroes let him join, and they all defeat Mr Dark and throw him out of the window.

But then, Dark Rayman challenges the group to a battle, deciding to take over the world even though his master has been defeated. Upon finally defeating him, he tries to fight them again, when Raymesis opens up a portal to the Nightmare Veil. However, as Dark Rayman is about to get sucked in, he grabs Raymesis, so he goes to the Nightmare Veil with him.

Rayman, Globox, Barbara, the teensies, and everyone else go back to the Enchanted Forest and mourn the “loss” of Raymesis (with flashbacks from Rayman Redemption, Rayman Arena, Rayman Origins, Rayman Legends, Rayman Adventures console edition, and Rayman Quest), when suddenly, a portal opens up, and Raymesis appears! He said that he entered a deeper part of the Veil and found a portal in secret, and that’s how he returned to The Glade. Everyone celebrates, welcoming Raymesis as their newest recruit.

In the credits, it is revealed that he was found and adopted by Fee De La Mort. He also formed his own team of heroes consisting of Glombrox, Selena, and The First King.

in The Adventures Of Rayman

He appears in various episodes as Rayman’s arch-rival, often trying to tarnish his reputation as a hero so that he can become the new hero.

in Benoraloha Bash

He appears as an unlockable skin for Rayman, and he costs 20 lums.

trivia

-Him and Dark Rayman’s chases are later reused in other games by Benoraloha. In Crash and Spyro’s Amazing Adventure, they are chased by Evil Crash from Crash Twinsanity. In Cuphead 2, they are chased by Evil Cuphead and Vile Mugman from the bad ending of the original game.
