"Cleanser of Inklings Octo Shower"

- intro to the Octo Shower boss fight.

The Octo Shower is the fourth boss mission in Splatoon 2's single-player mode, Octo Canyon.

Boss Appearance
The Octo Shower resembles a large disembodied shower head with a large blue shower cap on it with several logo's printed on it, on which a normal sized rubber duck rests with a hair bun like of Callies. It has two large grated lamps that can turn off and on to resemble eyes blinking, it can glow red or a yellow-white light depending on its attacks. slightly hidden under the shower cap are two vents that spout out steam while it fly's, or smoke if it is grounded, it also makes comical train whistle sounds as it goes. Under it is a extending shower nozzle that activates and sprays down ink as it attacks, it is chrome at the nozzle but the area around the nozzle is red-orange. it has 4 valves that may or may not be useless to it, the front valves have small aposeable tiny useless legs with yellow sneakers as feet, however this can be seen shooting missiles. on the back of the machine are a couple of ventilation boxes near the back valves. on the very top of the Octoshower is a drain like hole that houses the tentacle, plugged shut by a chain plug held up by a few yellow hatted octocopters with their feet chained down. when the octoshower attacks with one of its 3 weapons it has large blue-gloved hands connected to the back valves of the octoshower by a similar pipe seen in the gootuber

The Octoshower often hisses hot steam out its vents like it is mad, it does this during attacks or to signal the Octocopters holding it up to fire at the player.

Walkthrough
The Octo Shower itself is carried by a group of Octocopters. The player must splat the Octocopters so the shower falls down and exposes its tentacle. The Octocopters are too high to be shot at ground level, you must climb up the various blocks in the arena. The boss will try to keep its distance, and its movements become unpredictable once one Octocopter remains.

If the player replays the battle without using a Charger, Ride Rails, Dash Panels, and Rolonium will be placed in the arena to compensate for the increased difficulty in hitting the Octocopters.

Phase 1

 * The boss is carried by three Octocopters.
 * The boss pulls out a weapon similar to the Classic Squiffer. The shower head uses a tracking laser that shows where he will fire. He will only fire once with this weapon before using a different attack.
 * The boss quickly flies across the arena while shooting down a stream of ink. The shower head flies backward before he does this.
 * The boss fires missiles that chase the player. The player can shoot these down.

Phase 2

 * The boss is carried by four Octocopters.
 * The boss uses a hand crank cannon that behaves like the Heavy Splatling.
 * The Octo Showers still uses all its attacks from Phase 1.

Phase 3

 * The boss is carried by four, faster moving Octocopters. This set of Octocopters like to dodge the players shots at the last second.
 * He uses everything from phase 1 and 2, but now he uses a Sting Ray. The shower head can move the laser much more easily than Inklings can.

Trivia

 * When there is only one Octocopter left holding the Octo Shower, they are seen struggling with holding it up.
 * When using a weapon, the Octo Shower has hands with blue rubber gloves on and the plug that the Octocopters use to attach themselves to the Octo shower resembles a bath plug. Both items show the theme of cleanliness - the main theme of the Octo Shower.
 * The rubber duck that sits on the top of the Octo Shower wears a bow that resembles Callie's tentacles.
 * The charger that the Octo Shower uses resembles the Classic Squiffer and the hand crank cannon resembles the Sloshing Machine. Both of these weapons resemble cleaning appliances, a spray bottle and a washing machine respectively; a central theme of cleanliness that the Octo Shower has
