[[Caterpillar (disambiguation)\|Caterpillars]] are Nightmares of [[Polokus]]. Two distinct types of caterpillar are known to exist: the small ones and [[Caterpillar\|the big ones]].

	Baby caterpillars appear as small, round puffs of darkness, with malevolent-looking white eyes. They are constantly in flight, but never more than a short way above the ground. They can be heard before being seen, as they produce a high-pitched buzzing noise, similar to that of a fly or a [[mosquito]].

	In ''[[Rayman Revolution]]'', the PlayStation 2 version of ''[[Rayman 2]]'', a new boss named [[Boss Chenille]] is introduced. It looks just like a normal [[caterpillar]], but with some significant differences: whereas they are a purplish-black in colour, [[Boss Chenille]] is blood-red; [[Boss Chenille]] is also somewhat larger, and it eyes are identical to the baby caterpillars' ones.

	[[Boss Chenille]] is found in a room in [[the Sanctuary of Rock and Lava]]. It is summoned by [[Rayman]] performing a [[Rain Dance]] on what looks like a greyish version of one of the [[Magic Sphere]]s' bases. When this is done, it emits a beam of light towards another such base. When [[Rayman]] [[Magic fist\|shoots]] it, it too emits a beam of light towards another base. After [[Magic fist\|shooting]] several more bases, the beam of light has finished its circumnavigation of the chamber; a door opens, and [[Boss Chenille]] enters.

	When [[Rayman]] strikes [[Boss Chenille]] with his [[magic fist]], a red baby caterpillar splits away from its body. When the hero shoots it, it splits into five black baby caterpillars. When they are killed, [[Boss Chenille]]'s health meter decreases. As the battle wears on, the segments of [[Boss Chenille]]'s body slowly disappear; by the end, it resembles an enormous red version of one of the baby caterpillars. When this final form is defeated, [[Boss Chenille]] vanishes for good.		When [[Rayman]] strikes [[Boss Chenille]] with his [[magic fist]], a red baby caterpillar splits away from its body.
