The '''Big Fish''' is an [[enemy|enemies]] originally appearing in the third Wily stage in [[Mega Man 2]] and returning in Mega Water S stage in [[Mega Man: The Wily Wars]]. It was added to Mega Man Maker in version [[1.1.0]].
'''Bubble Lead''' is [[Bubble Man]]'s signature weapon, originating from ''[[Mega Man 2]]'' and reappearing in ''[[Mega Man: Dr. Wily's Revenge]]'' and ''[[Mega Man: The Wily Wars]]''. It is featured in ''[[Mega Man Maker]]'' as of version [[1.7.0]].


As its name indicates, the Big Fish is a big robotic fish. When the player character is close to it, it flies up from pits, then falls down ignoring terrain collision.
It shoots out a slow bubble in a small arc that then travels across the floor and down corners, only stopping if it hits a wall or enemy with more than 3 HP. It will continue onwards if it destroys an enemy or destructible object barring [[Weapon Block]]s, but it cannot travel across [[Ice Block]]s. When used underwater, it will rise up 2 tiles before falling due to the lower gravity. Since it is a water-based weapon, it can douse [[Flame Pillars]], extinguish burning [[Oil]], and dilute [[Chemical Solution]]. All members of the [[Spine]] family are susceptible to this weapon. Up to 2 Bubble Leads can be onscreen at a time.


[[Quick Boomerang]] and [[Crash Bomber]] are capable of destroying it in one hit. Other weapons that can damage it, like [[Flash Stopper]] or [[Needle Cannon]], can only defeat it if they manage to deplete its HP before it falls again. After being attacked with weak projectiles that damage it, the Big Fish has some invincibility frames. Despite being immune or resistent to most projectiles, it can be defeated by the Fire Wall.
Unlike the original weapon, it can damage almost all enemies. However, it is no longer a weakness for [[Hothead]]s.


A Big Fish can get stuck if it falls on certain [[Level Objects|level objects]] such as [[Crash Lift]]s or [[Rotating Platform]]s. This was intended by the developers.
==Tutorial==


In the [[Level Builder]], the Big Fish is placed in the maximum height it is meant to reach. Big Fish's main skin is an 8-bit recreation of its ''[[Mega Man: The Wily Wars]]'' sprite implemented for aesthetic purposes, while a skin with its original appearance in ''Mega Man 2'' was added in [[1.6.2]].

==Glitches==
*If objects similar to the Falling Platform are placed just right where Big Fish's path ends under it, it can destroy it without any weapon.
*Prior to [[1.6.3]], a Big Fish would be immune to its weaknesses when frozen by [[Ice Slasher]].


==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*The Big Fish was originally meant to be a developer-only enemy. WreckingPrograms secretly added Big Fish to the game because the former staff member [[MrKyurem]] hated the enemy. This can be seen in the first line of Big Fish's description stating it is "the best enemy". However, other development members requested Big Fish to be added to the game thus the enemy was modified and made functional for release.
*Despite being originally stated ''(in the Mega Man Archie/Megamix Comics series)'' to be made out of sulfuric acid, Bubble Lead lowers Chemical Solution's level instead of raising it.
*Leading up to the release of version [[1.6.0]], an #update_hype channel was created and temporarily opened in the [[Mega Man Maker Official Server]] for users to share excitement regarding the release of the major versions. On February 22, 2020, the day of release of version 1.6.0, a meme of Big Fish was posted several times by many users in the channel; thus, resulting in the enemy again becoming a community meme after 1.6.0's release.
*The description is a joke on how the pronunciation of Lead in the weapon's name is unclear within the Mega Man community.
*[[SnoruntPyro]] led WreckingPrograms to make Big Fish be carried over by Crash Lift platforms and Rotating Platforms.

Bubble Lead is Bubble Man's signature weapon, originating from Mega Man 2 and reappearing in Mega Man: Dr. Wily's Revenge and Mega Man: The Wily Wars. It is featured in Mega Man Maker as of version 1.7.0.

It shoots out a slow bubble in a small arc that then travels across the floor and down corners, only stopping if it hits a wall or enemy with more than 3 HP. It will continue onwards if it destroys an enemy or destructible object barring Weapon Blocks, but it cannot travel across Ice Blocks. When used underwater, it will rise up 2 tiles before falling due to the lower gravity. Since it is a water-based weapon, it can douse Flame Pillars, extinguish burning Oil, and dilute Chemical Solution. All members of the Spine family are susceptible to this weapon. Up to 2 Bubble Leads can be onscreen at a time.

Unlike the original weapon, it can damage almost all enemies. However, it is no longer a weakness for Hotheads.
