## In the games

#### *Bikdip's Adventure 2: Electric Boogaloo*

Prior to the events of the game, while Bargo was unconscious in the old Level 9, Bikdark approached Ganon and pledged allegiance to him, offering to aid him in conquering Hyrule.

Bikdark was first seen at the end of Level 2, where he reached the room that had contained one of the Triforce of Wisdom Pieces, after Bargo had already taken it.

Later, Bikdark was called upon by Ganon to seek out the final two Triforce Pieces that Bargo had not yet found, and was supplied with the items Ganon had stolen from Bargo during their previous encounter, in addition to copies of Bargo's new equipment. Bikdark then investigated the forest in the north-west of the map and found a large warehouse that DRKNT-042, a robotic super-soldier created by Ganon, had constructed to act as a base for his schemes. There, he found a Hammer and an invention created by DRKNT-042, the Medallion of Water, which had been abandoned due to only functioning when used by spherical things. Being spherical, Bikdark was able to use the medallion to ascend the warehouse's drainage pipe, retrieve the Magical Sword which DRKNT-042 had lost in it, and kill the robot before claiming the Triforce Piece they had been guarding.

Following this, Bikdark traveled to the Caves of Manikvraad, where he found a Wand, a Book of Magic, a Fire Boomerang, six keys to Level 9, and the final Triforce Piece being guarded by a pair of floating skulls. He used the keys he found to re-enter Level 9.

Shortly thereafter, Bargo broke into the lair and fought Bikdark, defeating him despite his inferior equipment and claiming the items and equipment Bikdark had, including the Triforce Pieces he had found. To slow Bargo's progress, Ganon ordered Bikdark to carry out a trap for Bargo in the form of a game show, Electric Boogaloo. After Bargo successfully won the game show, Bikdark fled deeper into the lair as Bargo reunited with Granpappy.

When Bargo reached the heart of the lair to confront Bikdark and Ganon, the former betrayed his boss, stealing the vuuntergrist orb and killing him with lightning magic that drained Ganon's power into himself, before eating the orb. He then fought Bargo, using his new power to shapeshift between multiple forms, taking an opportunity to rest a few times by sending in minions to buy time. Through a combination of waiting for openings to attack and reflecting Bikdark's shots, Bargo was able to significantly weaken Bikdark. In response, Bikdark drank a Potion he had been carrying, though its magical effects made Bikdark feel strange as Ganon's weakness to silver and gold began to affect Bikdark. Bargo used this opportunity to fire his favorite spoon at Bikdark, which killed him, reducing him to ashes, which, along with Ganon's ashes, were later spread on Princess Zelda's frozen form to free her from Ganon's magic.

In a conversation with Zelda and Granpappy, Bargo incorrectly concluded that the other two had been hiding the fact that Bikdark was Bargo's long-lost twin brother. However, none of them actually knew any details of Bikdark's origin. With Bikdark and Ganon dead, it is unknown if this will ever be revealed.

## Trivia

* The switch of player character partway through Part 1 of *Bikdip's Adventure 2: Electric Boogaloo* from Bargo to Bikdark was achieved using the palette change caused by secretly obtaining the Blue Ring during the cutscene in which Bikdark is instructed to find the remaining Triforce Pieces before Bargo does. Later, the same method is used to switch from Bikdark to Bargo in Part 2 using the Red Ring. This means several things:
	+ Bikdark takes half as much damage from enemies as Bargo in Part 1.
	+ Bargo in Part 2 takes half as much damage from enemies as Bikdark did, or a quarter as much as he himself took in Part 1, with no in-game explanation (though his eyes turn red as when the Red Ring is obtained in Bikdip's Adventure, so it can be assumed that he found the Red Ring off-screen while Bikdark was collecting the seventh and eighth Triforce Pieces).
	+ If the player saves the game between getting the Triforce Piece in Level 6 and the cutscene playing, they will permanently miss the Blue Ring and continue to play as Bargo. This causes the line spoken by somebody off-screen when you enter the new Level 9, (*"Why have you returned? You don't have all the Triforce Pieces yet!"*) to no longer make sense, as they address Bargo as if he is Bikdark.
	+ As the Triforce Piece in Level 2 (Bikdip's Adventure 2) is not required until the player enters the new Level 9, it is possible to wait until switching to Bikdark before collecting it, humorously resulting in the cutscene showing Bikdark being angry that he beat himself to the Triforce Piece.
* BikdipOnABus edited screenshots and clips of Level 7 and Level 8 to replace Bikdark with Bargo in promotional material and previews of the game to avoid spoiling Bikdark's existence as a playable character.
