If a [[Bully|bully]] is out of bounds, Mario runs into the [[Bully|bully]] repeatedly in order to very slowly cause the [[Bully|bully]] to gain speed with each hit. After, we can transfer the built speed back to Mario to move at hyperspeed. However, Mario needs to either use water or a [[Squish Cancel|squish cancel]] to escape the knockback state.

After, we can transfer the built speed back to Mario to move at hyperspeed. However, Mario needs to either use water or a [[Squish Cancel|squish cancel]] to escape the knockback state. Otherwise, the built up speed is immediately lost. The glitch is currently being used as part of a theory for a method to beat [[Bowser in the Fire Sea]] in 0xA-presses on N64. | ||
== Fast Bully Battery == | |||
When Mario gets hit by the bully, the bully speed is transferred to Mario after being multiplied by a conversion ratio of 3*73/53. This would put Mario in the knockback state and cap his speed, but with Squish Cancel, Mario can switch to the Squished state then switch into another state, bypassing the cap and keeping his speed. | |||
If Mario now gives this speed back to the bully, it is multiplied by a conversion ratio of 53/73. Overall, this corresponds to the bully's speed being multiplied by 3. Thus, the Bully's speed increases exponentially, with a speed increase on the order of <math>3^n</math>. | |||
== Slow Bully Battery == | |||
When the bully already has speed, Mario can give it even more speed by hitting the bully perpendicular to its velocity vector, giving the bully a new speed according to | |||
<math>v_{Bully}=\sqrt{[v_{Bully}]^2 + [v_{Mario}]^2}</math> | |||
Assuming Mario's speed is constant every hit, the bully's speed will equal <math>[v_{Mario}]\sqrt{n}</math> by the ''n''th hit. The speed is gained very slowly, making it take upwards of months for useful speed to be obtained but it is much less restrictive than the other method. | |||
