The Pipi is a flying bird robot enemy that originates from Mega Man 2 and makes an appearance in Mega Man: Dr. Wily's Revenge, Mega Man II, and Mega Man: The Wily Wars. The Pipi was the first asset to be shown off for version 1.7.0 of Mega Man Maker.
A Pipi attacks by dropping an egg if it is 3 or less tiles next to the player character's vertical axis. Upon contact with a solid floor, the egg cracks in two and a flock of seven small Pipis called "Copipis" are released. The Copipis fly in a straight path to the player character's current position. The Copipis are not released if the egg falls down a pit or if it is destroyed before it collides with a solid floor. If a Pipi is shot before it drops the egg, the egg will drop and will release any Copipis inside if in contact with a solid floor.
Pipis come in three different colors—light-orange and white, dark-orange and light-orange, and dark-pink and white. They can be set to either move left or right in the Level Builder. There is also a Pipi spawner that will constantly spawn a Pipi in the direction the player is facing if the player is in the spawner's area.
