Tel Tel is a sky blue doll-like weather-changing robot from Cloud Man's stage in Mega Man 7 that is featured in Mega Man Maker since version 1.9.0.

Behavior

When a Tel Tel is spawned in, one of six weather effects will take effect depending on the option set in the Level Builder: nothing, clear, heat, wind, rain, or snow. A Tel Tel may either be present on screen or invisible (indicated by a white outline in the Level Builder); if the former option is selected, after changing the weather for the first time, a Tel Tel can either be set to remain on screen, floating up and down in place and facing the player, or drop down below the screen. The current weather effect continues even across screens transitions.

If there are multiple Tel Tels placed on a screen, the Tel Tel that is leftmost and topmost will have its weather take priority unless there is a Tel Tel on the bottom half of the screen for which the bottommost Tel Tel's weather effect takes priority instead.

When shot at by the player, a Tel Tel will change the weather to one of five weather conditions depending on the type of weapon used:

Icon	Sprite	Weapon type	Weather	Weather appearance	Effect	Tel Tel appearance
		Electric	Clear	N/A	The current weather effect is cleared. No special weather effects take place.	Upright
		Other	Rain	Rain falls across the screen	Douses fires Decreases the acidity of Chemical Solution by one level every three seconds Unlike the Rain level object, the player's movement is not affected Rain Tel Tel takes priority over the Rain level object's effects and the rain decoration Flame Pillars immediately retract and do not spawn further fire beams	Upside down
		Ice	Snow	Powder snow falls across the screen	Invisible gimmicks are covered by snow Invisible spikes can be stood on safely during this time Fire gimmicks such as lava, Flame Pillars and Fire Walls all become frozen and cannot be unfrozen Melting Snow Blocks will slowly reform to full size and will not disintegrate A special green Melting Snow Block will only appear when the snow Tel Tel is active	Panels expand and contract as the Tel Tel remains upright
		Fire	Heat	A heating effect appears above tiles, spikes, and certain level objects such as Quicksand when they are out of water A sparkling effect appears in front of water, Burst Water, Section Wide Water, Section Chemical Solution, and Section Burst Water	Standing on tiles for two seconds in total continuously damages the player for 2 health each time Tiles with the ice effect are immune to heating and lower the heating effect quicker Any water that the player stands in will heal their health by 1 every two seconds continuously in water Water from a Tel Tel Fountain heals the player much quicker Certain ice level objects such as Ice Barriers and Melting Snow Blocks will melt Invisible gimmicks will be revealed Lava remains unfrozen and cannot be frozen Contact with MM4 Quicksand slowly drains health, as does contact with tiles. MM11 Hotplates remain constantly hot while Tel Tel is in the heatwave state. MM6 Oil is ignited during heatwave.	Periodically shoots fire out of its sides while it wears a helmet resembling that of Heat Man
		Wind	Wind	Wind blows vertically across the screen	Increases the player's jump height from 3 tiles high to 4 tiles high. Reduces the speed of Nonbrellan and Mini Snowman when they fall. Increases the speed of Rising Ballon. Extends the distance of Light Block when thrown with Super Arm.	Wears a helmet similar to that of Tornado Man: a small persistent gust blows below the Tel Tel as blades spin by its center portion

A cyan Bell Ringer will cycle through a Tel Tel's weather with each ring in the following order: wind, clear, rain, snow, and heat. Projectiles reflected by the player's weapons such as Mirror Buster and certain level objects such as Icicles will always transform a Tel Tel to the rain weather.

Tel Tel Fountain

The Tel Tel Fountain is a fountain that can heal the player while Tel Tel is in the heat status and the player is in contact with its water. In this case, the red bar due to heat damage accumulating quickly descends and a blue bar appears inside of the HP bar that quickly grows. When it fully ascends, the player heals by one point.

Much like normal water, a Tel Tel Fountain's water will extend beneath it until it reaches solid ground. A Tel Tel Fountain is also affected by gravity and heals the player much quicker than regular water.

Invisible level objects

When the player approaches these objects, a circular invisible outline appears that makes them visible. These objects are also always visible when the weather is snow or heat with invisible spikes being safe to stand on for the player when the weather is snow.

Trivia

• The heal sound effect when the player regains health while in water during the heat weather is the same sound effect as when the player uses Heal through the Command Selection menu.
• In Cloud Man's stage in Mega Man 7, the first Tel Tel in the stage changes to the rain weather regardless of which weapon it was hit by. However, the second Tel Tel changes to the snow weather when hit by Freeze Cracker.
