Bubble Splash

Bubble Splash (バブルスプラッシュ) is the Special Weapon that X obtains from Bubble Crab in Mega Man X2.

When equipped, X fires a stream of bubbles that float in an upwards arc for a moment before bursting. The amount of bubbles generated in the stream depends on how long the player presses the FIRE button: up to seven bubbles can be generated in a single stream when the button is pressed one time long enough, and a minimum of one or two bubbles will be generated if the button is pressed lightly. This weapon will continue to fire if the weapon button is held down, including during charging. When Bubble Splash is fully charged, X is surrounded by a ring of bubbles that can be used as a "shield" to damage enemies.

The behavior of Bubble Splash changes when used underwater: upon firing Bubble Splash, the bubbles will rise up much quicker than if they were fired normally; when charged, the ring of bubbles will allow X to jump incredibly high.

In Wire Sponge's stage, Bubble Splash can cause the weather patterns in the stage to become rainy by striking a weather orb and turning it turquoise with it, but this is not recommended as it causes X to be pushed back every time he jumps and can even cause death if he's near a pit of spikes.

Bubble Splash is Flame Stag and Violen's weakness.
