Bubble Man

Bubble Man (バブルマン) is the first aquatic Robot Master created by Dr. Wily for underwater combat. However, a defect in his system makes him unable to walk underwater, being only able to move by jumping. After seeing this, Wily couldn't help but laugh at his way of moving. Despite this flaw, Bubble Man is able to swim.

Bubble Man attacks with normal shots from his arm cannon, and can shot Bubble Leads from his arm cannon and the top of his head. Bubble Leads are durable bubbles mixed with sulfuric acid that can be used for several purposes, like hit opponents with small bubbles, wrap opponents inside large bubbles, or protect himself.
