Resistance to Extreme Heats, Extreme Colds, & Weather Manipulation (Robot Masters are made to withstand extreme terrains and weather conditions), Mind Manipulation and Soul Manipulation (Despite how active Robot Masters are they do not actually possess the feeling to think, feel, and make decisions of their own as this level of technology wasn't realized until the reploids of the X era. Along with Reploids having something closer to a human soul then any robot Robot Master has. Robot Masters have a "consciousness" though it is different from the standard humans consciousness as it's at the level of a "cognitive circuit" embedded inside each one of them[17]), Cosmic Radiations (All Robot Masters can breathe and survive in space just fine, with an entire game revolving around traveling through space[18]), Information Manipulation & Conceptual Manipulation (Can take hits from characters that can directly interact with, harm, and destroy a robots data, which all robots "true existences" rely on their data, thus as long as their data is stored they can be remade or come back if their data is specifically "SAVED". All data resides in the deep log of each game's data and information of the Mega Man Franchise and many other Capcom franchises, with it being stated that data makes up the characters' personality, memories are data pieces that can be used to materialize hunter programs and also have the feelings of the characters, their data is even what determines their own canonicity in reality, with all characters being considered data alongside all universes being made of data. With data further being explored through here), Plot Manipulation (As data determines one's canonicity in reality and all universes are made of data, one would need to fully change one's data in order to change their narrative. With data further being explored through here), Electricity Manipulation (Robot Masters are able to tank and survive attacks from electricity based Robot Masters attacks, even those with a weakness can survive hits from it), Heat Manipulation & Fire Manipulation (Robot Masters are able to tank and survive attacks from heat and fire based Robot Masters attacks, even those with a weakness can survive hits from it and survive the intense heats), Magma Manipulation (Robot Masters are able to tank and survive attacks from magma based Robot Masters attacks, even those with a weakness can survive hits from it), Ice Manipulation & Absolute Zero (Robot Masters are able to tank and survive attacks from ice based Robot Masters attacks, even those with a weakness can survive hits from it, even with ice as cold as absolute zero), Gravity Manipulation (Is completely immune to gravity hold.

~ Wave Man |
Background
Wave Man is an amphibious combat Robot Master created by Dr. Wily to invade and take control of the water quality administration in Mega Man 5. Armed with his Special Weapon, the Water Wave, Wave Man attacks by producing pressurized columns of water which burst from the ground towards his opponents' positions. His offensive capabilities are augmented by the ability to launch razor-sharp harpoons from the cannon on his right arm, but since these main means of attack are ranged, he tends to be more vulnerable when fought in close quarters. Unlike his predecessor Bubble Man, however, Wave Man has good mobility both on land and when submerged in water.

Mega Man 5
Alternately, sliding rapidly to one side of the room and jumping over the harpoon will cause Wave Man to create a waterspout under himself or directly in front of the player (when extended, the buster on the sprite protrudes through it, although no contact damage is dealt), allowing him to be attacked. Jumping just before he fires his next harpoon and sliding rapidly to the other side of the room repeats the pattern, although sometimes the Water Wave may rise directly under the player if they do not slide fast enough. Wave Man is weak to Charge Man's Charge Kick, and it can be used to go through the harpoons, but not through his Water Wave. Wave Man can be destroyed with seven hits from Charge Kick.

Codex Statistics
Tier: At most High 6-A, Higher with Rage Power
Cardinality: Finite

Durability: At most Multi-Continent level (Can take hits from Mega Man)
Striking Strength: At most Multi-Continent Class (Potency), Higher with Rage Power
Lifting Strength: Class G (The Robot Masters are normally made to be on par or superior to Mega Man, who was able to hold up Dr. Wily's fortress at end of Mega Man 5, with Robot Masters such as Guts Man being superior in strength and Robot Masters such as Splash Woman having comparable feats such as lifting entire ships from the ocean)
Travel Speed: Massively Hypersonic (Can move this fast compared to Mega Man, who can keep up with Duo, who can travel around the earth destroying evil energy around this timeframe), Faster Than Light with Teleporters (Robot Masters teleporters should scale to Mega Man and Proto Man’s teleportation, where they are able to travel planets and solar systems in a short time frame[1], reaching this levels of speed)

Intelligence: Gifted Intelligence (Was made with amphibious combat. Can keep up with Mega Man in combat)
Powers and Techniques
Resistance to Gravity Manipulation (Is completely immune to gravity hold)
Equipment
- Harpoon: Harpoons shot out of his buster.
Notable Techniques
- Water Wave: Water Wave is Wave Man's Special Weapon in the Mega Man series. The weapon uses high pressure to inject compressed water in one direction with enough power to pierce through steel. When Wave Man uses this weapon, he sends out three water spouts as a small wave across the floor that can absorb some enemy projectiles. The waves can only be fired when Wave Man is in contact with the ground. It will stop when it hits an enemy that is strong enough to sustain the hit, or until it hits a wall. It cannot be activated while Wave Man is in the air or on a levitating platform. It also can't be activated if Wave Man is at the very end of a ledge. However, it can be activated on a ledge provided it has time to flow off the edge where it will fall to the ground, and continue to travel until it hits something in its path.
Other
Standard Tactics: Wave Man will hop around and use his water wave along with shooting out harpoons.
Weaknesses: Has a weakness to Charge Man's charge kick. Noted that due to mainly using ranged attacks, Wave Man is vulnerable when fought in close quarters. If his data is corrupted, he will be incapable of coming back.
Trivia
- Wave Man's stage in the Game Gear Mega Man uses Gravity Man's music, while his own themed is played in the game over screen.
- Wave Man and Crystal Man are the two Robot Masters from Mega Man 5 to not have a NetNavi counterpart in the Mega Man Battle Network series.
- Wave Man's name is shared with a Robot Master submission from Daniel Vallée, who was the person who created Knight Man.
- How he is weak to the Charge Kick is in reference to how beach waves themselves are able to be overcome with direct head on force of greater mass and energy behind it; one such example is the use of sails on boats to break through the surf and wake near the mainland to access the ocean.

- ↑ PEACE HAS COME TO THE WORLD.
Dr. Wily has reformed, and he and Dr. Right have joined forces, working together to develop a giant peace-keeping robot named “GAMMA”.
“GAMMA”…… It was the life-long dream of Dr. Right, a giant robot to protect and serve world peace.
Their research almost complete, all that remained was to combine 8 energy elements that were scattered about the uncharted planets, and bestow them to “GAMMA”…
–However, each planet met with an unexpected incident. The robots who were mining the energy elements suddenly began going berserk!! Upon learning of this from Dr. Right, “ROCKMAN” immediately set out on a path for the uncharted planets–a new battle was about to begin!! - ↑ Q. What kind of foods does Rockman like to eat?
A. Well… Actually, Rockman’s body is powered by “Solar Energy.” Therefore, he doesn’t really eat, but there are some things that are okay for his consumption… Around the lab, he enjoys drinking “Energy Juice.” As responsibly as he behaves, he’s still a kid after all. - ↑ Q. The shots that the Rockbuster fires from the hand, what are those exactly?
A. The Rockbuster on the arm fires something called a “Solar Bullet”, essentially emitting a compressed form of solar energy that’s very powerful. - ↑ Weapon: Transforming Rockbuster, fires a solar bullet
- ↑ Q. Do robots like those made by Dr. Wily or Dr. Cossack have self-awareness, and can they talk? And do they run on solar energy like Rockman does?
A. I take it you’d like to know if Wily and Cossack’s robots possess “sentience”? Naturally, they each have a “consciousness”, although the level of every “cognitive circuit” embedded inside each one of them varies, producing as many different “personality” types as found in people… Just like you or I, they can speak, and have emotional responses like shyness, or anger, just as we do.
Regarding their energy systems, many of them do utilize “solar energy” in some way. - ↑ PEACE HAS COME TO THE WORLD.

- ↑ This all-purpose robot can take on the same abilities of every other robot merely by switching its program data. Still, if it just copies the powers of robots that Rockman has already been able to defeat, one might expect for Rockman to overcome them again…
