Despite only competing once, Raphaël is widely considered one of the most legendary players of Koh-Lanta due to his big heart, his work ethic, his leadership, and his outstanding fishing exploits, which included fishing a shark by its tail with a cord. Raphaël was one of the two scouts of the all-male Mogo tribe assigned to travel to camp by helicopter and get a head start on setting up their tribe for camp life, the other being Romuald Lafite. Though the two seemed to get along, Raphaël noticed that Romuald was being lazy and didn't like that. When the whole tribe reunited at Mogo beach, Raphaël joined Philippe Bordier, Vidéli Dittmar, and Nelson Parente in the construction of their tribe's shelter. At one point, Nelson suggested that they create a floor, but the rest of them disagreed. When the Mogo tribe lost the first Immunity Challenge, older tribe member Jean-Bernard de Cools gave the middle finger to the tribe and threw his belt at them. Because Jean-Bernard was sanctioned for these actions by losing his right to vote at the first elimination and being exiled for 48 hours, he was unable to cast a crucial vote against Romuald, who he and most of the other older tribe members were targeting for his laziness, that would have caused the vote to result in a tie. Instead, the three youngest men were now in the majority as they and Vidéli voted against Nelson due to their dislike of his leadership style and Nelson was eliminated in a 4-3 vote.
On Day 8, the Mogo tribe sent Alban and their two scouts, Raphaël and Romuald, to what they thought was going to be a challenge for reward, but it turned out to be a tribe switch. As a result, they were reassigned to the Chapera tribe and their representatives, Linda Alario, SL, and Catherine Ehret-Mader were reassigned to the Mogo tribe. On their end, the Chapera women were happy to have men on their tribe and the tribe got along very well, but Nathalie Lapicque was annoyed because Raphaël had taken over her leadership role in the tribe and became negative. Raphaël bonded very well with Odile Héritier and developed a sort of father-daughter relationship with Amélie Grégoire. After they eliminated Vicky Lemarié on Day 13 due to her depleted morale, some of the Chapera tribe members, including Raphaël, pondered over whether Nathalie was being so negative on purpose to influence her tribemates into wanting to go home. Nathalie finally managed to bond better with her tribemates during the sixth cycle, but it was still too late for her to salvage her game because she was eliminated during the corresponding elimination as her tribemates were still annoyed with her. Before she was eliminated, Nathalie took the map of Chapera Island that had been given to her tribe at the beginning of the game as a souvenir. When Raphaël, who the tribe had earlier agreed would receive the map as his souvenir, noticed that the map was missing from his bag, Alban checked Nathalie's bag for the map as she was voting. He found the map and gave it to Raphaël before Nathalie got back, but when the voting was over, Denis Brogniart asked Raphaël to give him the map as it was property of the show.
At the merged tribe's first elimination, Raphaël joined the majority of the second Chapera tribe members and Catherine in voting out Guillaume Brauer, who had received the Ambassadors' vote earlier in the cycle. Over the next few days, many of the contestants became ill. Many of the second Chapera tribe members blamed their sickness on eating the moray eel that Raphaël had caught earlier, but the minority alliance of Linda, Philippe, and Sophie used this to their advantage and convinced Raphaël that his allies were being ungrateful of him. Despite this, Raphaël didn't budge from his alliance that now included Catherine as an affiliate and Linda was voted out next. During the night, wanting to ensure that his alliance didn't take him for granted, Raphaël hid all of the cassava. However, after the next Reward Challenge, he felt that the tribe deserved merit and unhid the cassava. When Odile was evacuated and eliminated from the game on Day 26 due to persisting illness, Linda returned to the game in her place with immunity at the upcoming elimination. Sophie was the next intended target of Catherine and the majority alliance because of her injured finger and because Linda was immune, but she and Linda argued to the majority alliance that Catherine did not actually deserve to go any further because of her consistent weakness in challenges. With this, the majority alliance realized that tensions between Linda, Sophie, and Catherine would end right away and the camp would be peaceful if Catherine were eliminated next, so all of Catherine's tribemates, except for Alban, voted out Catherine at the next elimination.
In spite of warnings from Denis Brogniart to stop fishing until further notice due to too many sharks migrating close to the island, Raphaël and Philippe still did so on a couple of occasions. They were warned again at the next elimination. At the Final Six, Alban won the Reward Challenge and, when told that he could share the reward with one of his tribemates, he chose his closest ally Romuald. When the pair came back to camp, the rest of the tribe criticized Alban for his decision because Romuald had benefited from more rewards than the rest of the tribe and because Romuald was lazy around camp. Though Romuald won the next Immunity Challenge, Alban's decision at the Reward Challenge was what broke the camel's back in terms of Raphaël staying loyal to his alliance. Therefore, to the relief of Linda and Philippe, Raphaël and Amélie flipped and Alban was voted out.
Amélie and Romuald were the next ones voted out. Raphaël made it to the final three mostly due to his tribemates judging that he deserved to win more than everybody else. Linda won the Final Immunity Challenge. She decided to vote Raphaël out, eliminating him right before the Final Tribal Council and making him the final jury member.
Later that night, Raphaël cast his vote for Philippe to win, which he did in a unanimous 7-0 vote. After being declared the Sole Survivor, Philippe gave a portion of his winnings to Raphaël, who he felt was the "spiritual winner" of the season.
