Text
The Watcher in the Water enters tapped with nine stun counters on it. (If a permanent with a stun counter would become untapped, remove one from it instead.) Whenever you draw a card during an opponent's turn, create a 1/1 blue Tentacle creature token. Whenever a Tentacle you control dies, untap up to one target Kraken and put a stun counter on up to one target nonland permanent.

For the last ability, the target Kraken can (and probably will) be The Watcher in the Water. If it is, and if it has at least one stun counter on it, you'll remove a stun counter from it instead of untapping it.
