Lag Reduction
You can reduce powerbomb lag by taking damage to Shaktool. The amount of lag can be significantly affected by the exact timing of the hit; you can get up to 20 frames extra lag by being 20 frames too early, since the blinking from the invulnerability will end prematurely. You want to take the hit right as the lag would begin otherwise.
Cutting out the splash effects from entering and leaving the water can also help reduce lag, so taking the hit while running, then quickly morphing, seems to work best for humans, as opposed to simply rolling into Shaktool.
