"Bubbling" is the process where a Gem encases a specific object inside a bubble via contact or energy projection, and either takes it with them or transfers it to a different location. Items and Gems that are bubbled remain inactive until released.

When a bubbled Gem is released, it instantly regenerates with seemingly no problems or awareness of their time contained as seen with the Centipeetle Mother and Peridot.

Process

The Gem picks an object that they desire to encase inside the bubble, and concentrate to create a bubble that can surround the object. This bubble is able to float independently from its creator. The majority of bubbles are seen in the Crystal Temple inside The Burning Room that only Garnet is allowed inside of. After bubbling an item, the holder can either keep it in their possession or teleport it to a different location via physical contact.  As mentioned earlier, the bubbled gems are transported to the Burning Room.

Objective

The objective of bubbling of Gem is to contain its gemstone so it can't regenerate into a physical form.
