Sheldon's Picks

"Each set contains new weapon combos which Sheldon carefully selected and modified based off of existing weapons, such as the “Wasabi Splattershot” and “Fresh Squiffer.” Will you discover new strats with the new combos?"

Sheldon's Picks are a set of reskins of existing weapons with new sub and special weapons. They were first announced during the 2016-03-03 Nintendo Direct presentation that were released in two volumes. The first came on 2016-04-13 as part of Version 2.7.0 and the second was added on 2016-06-08 part of Version 2.8.0. All of them are unlocked at Level 20, with the Tempered Dynamo Roller and Aerospray PG also requiring the fifth and third Boss Scrolls, respectively. It seemed to be replaced by the Kensa Collection in Splatoon 2
