Made this page for eventual testing and practicing purposes.

Amiibo format test. I believe it's ready now.

Those concept sections I think could be used for the amiibo article (minus my personal notes):
 * Splatoon series amiibo concept 2
 * In Splatoon concept 2
 * In Splatoon 2 concept 3

Splatoon series amiibo concept 2
Some introduction info here.
 * Speculation whether to have quotes here or not.
 * Also, should the images for the recolour be a bit smaller?
 * The squid icon for the US social media account used a green squid, until Splatoon 2 as seen here in Splatoonus. The orange squid icon was used by SplatoonJP and the UK Splatoon Facebook, until Splatoon 2.
 * Should the Squid Sister be listed together or separately? Try mentioning that the green squid amiibo was released exclusively as a bundle with Splatoon in Europe.
 * Are the main amiibo images too big? Maybe scale them down a bit.
 * Describe the some of the amiibo(s') appearance. For example, Callie and Marie striking the "Stay fresh" pose.

She appears to be based on the Inkling most commonly used to advertise the game, such as on the front cover and for commercials, along with the default girl Inkling. In July 8, 2016 a recolored version of the amiibo was released in North America as a part of the second wave of amiibo in the Splatoon series.

In July 8, 2016 a recolored version of the amiibo was released in North America as a part of the second wave of amiibo in the Splatoon series.

Other details, such as the release date, are yet to be revealed. They will be sold in a 2-pack for $24.99 in the US.

Both amiibo appear to be striking the Off the Hook's signature pose that they make at the end of their news segment.

In Splatoon concept 2

 * Either have the list say "amiibo with this functionality" or "compatible amiibo".
 * Under the Squid Sisters amiibo, check to see if you even can enteract or talk to anyone of the characters, such as Spyke. Also should it be mentioned that the Inkling NPCs are the same used, when the Plaza is offline? (Fun fact, the names for these NPCs are the same in Splatoon 2. Another fun fact is that in Splatoon 2, they updated the look of the NPCs during the big november update, where some Inklings now have the some of the new gear and hairstyles from the update. Specifically, these Inklings resemble the ones used in the promo material for the update. BTW should there be made an article or reference page for these "characters"?)
 * Add screenshot of the Splatfest Plaza mode and don't use a generic Splatfest photo.

Gameplay
The only amiibo that can be used in this game are those from the Splatoon series, where all currently released figures are compatible. The amiibo can be scanned in an amiibo case situated in Inkopolis Plaza, and used to unlock twenty different challenges with five unlockable boss challenges in Octo Valley and new exclusive gear to wear into battle. The amiibo case is located at the southeastern corner of Inkopolis and it appears as the packaging amiibo traditionally come in. When scanning an amiibo (if the amiibo is registered) a flurry of paint circles the inside as the corresponding amiibo forms inside of it. The character introduces themselves and lays down guidelines for their challenges.

The Inkling Girl, Boy and Squid amiibo feature twenty challenges if the single-player mode, Octo Valley, has been completed. The first challenge gives the player six hundred cash as a reward, with the reward increasing by one hundred more cash for each next challenge (i.e. one mission reward is 1000 cash, while the next mission reward is 1100 cash). Each challenge can be completed again, though for only a reward of 100 cash. When three challenges in the same row are completed, the fourth challenge for that set is unlocked, being the boss for its corresponding area in Octo Valley. As opposed to a monetary reward, the boss challenges provide three pieces of gear for the first three bosses, a minigame for the fourth, and a weapon blueprint for the final boss.

The Squid Sisters amiibo allow the user to view concerts in the plaza, similar to a Splatfest. The different versions of the Inkling Girl, Boy and Squid amiibo share the same behavior, whith the challenge tree also being shared between the different versions.

Inkling Girl
"Dude! Lemme tell you I am SO glad you called me! I'm pickin' up a fresh vibe from you. Tell me...are you a fan of weapons? Cuz that's my kinda thing—making up challenges where you gotta use orange! Are you game? Come to think of it...you've been pokin' around down in orange, yeah? Yup, I saw you in that rad outfit, fighting those...things. It looked super fun! But you know what would be even radder? If you used a orange weapon! That's my challenge to you. Clear missions with a orange, and I'll hook ya up!"

Wanna give one of my challenges a go? I heard you've been doing work in . Wearin' that crazy getup, wreckin' Octobros and junk! That's when I knew for sure that you've got what it takes to try my challenges. All you gotta do is beat those same missions using a weapon! So are you game? I've got some dope rewards lined up if you can pull it off!"

"Why, hello there, friend! Thank you kindly for summoning me here. I can see you're just itching for some way to test your skills. Well, I have been thinking up some challenges that might catch your interest! What do you say? Do you think you'll be up to the task? By the by, I hear that you've been making quite a splash over in orange. In fact, I saw you at it! Wearing outlandish getup and fighting odd creatures! I think that proves that you have what it takes to attempt my challenges. What do you have to lose? I have some nice rewards for you if you win!"

- Inkling Squid

The amiibo offers 16 Kraken and 4 limited-Ink challenges, and shooter challenges in Octo Valley and will provide the player with an exclusive costume piece after every four challenges completed. After completing all the challenges, the player will complete the set and receive the exclusive Power Gear along with the Squid Beatz minigame and the Hero Shot Replica blueprints, which is a reskin of the Splattershot.

Challenges
The Inkling Squid amiibo allows players to complete specific Octo Valley missions in two ways: some can be completed as a Kraken with limited time, and others must be completed with limited ink. In the Kraken Challenges, the player is given the ability to turn into a Kraken instead of a Squid for the entirety of the level. In limited ink challenges, the player is given three or four full Ink Tanks to complete the level, but ink cannot be replenished. The challenges are as follows:

Squid Sisters
Both the Callie and Marie amiibo can be used to unlock exclusive in-game Squid Sisters concerts, including two exclusive solo songs; one for each sister. Using either of the Squid Sisters causes the Plaza to take on its appearance during a Splatfest, themed after the game's last topic, namely the Callie vs. Marie Splatfest. The player will be colored after and wearing a Splatfest Tee for whichever Squid Sister was used. During the concert, no buildings can be entered, nor can Judd be talked to.

The Squid Sisters can perform the following songs, each with their own dance routine:
 * Ink Me Up (Splatfest Battle)
 * Now or Never! (Splatfest Battle - 1 Minute Remaining!)
 * City of Color (Splatfest Plaza)
 * Maritime Memory (Credits Sequence)
 * Calamari Inkantation (Vs. DJ Octavio - Final Phase)
 * Bomb Rush Blush (Callie's solo; can only be chosen with Callie amiibo)
 * Tide Goes Out (Marie's solo; can only be chosen with Marie amiibo)

In Splatoon 2 concept 2
Some introduction text here.
 * Replace "Order gotten" with "condition for obtaining reward", when it's figured out.
 * The description for the individual amiibo is too general that it can be applied to all 3 Inkling amiibo, and it would better fit as an overall description.

Inkling Girl
"Whoa! You've got a super-fresh vibe coming off you right now! You must have seen a whole lot of battle, huh? Hey, wanna be orange? I feel like I could learn a lot from you. Plus, I could memorize your orange and orange! That way you can equip gear super fast from the orange or orange menu! Pretty cool, right? So whaddaya say? Wanna be friends?"

- Inkling Girl



The amiibo offers to take pictures around Inkopolis Square, as well as all current multiplayer stages implemented in version 2.0.0. The player can also be given rewards from the amiibo in the form of gear and unlocking a music track for Squid Beatz 2, by battling online. While all Inkling Girl amiibo share the same dialogue, the game differentiates them according to¨whether they're from the Splatoon 2 or the original Splatoon lineup. The rewards the that are obtained depend on, which game the amiibo is from.

In Splatoon 2 concept 3

 * Remember to mention that the Squid Sisters amiibo can only be used once you've cleared the Octo Canyon campaign.
 * According to the official JP Twitter account the Off the Hook amiibo provide special gear.
 * Try setting in a screenshot of the photo function.

Gameplay
Like its predecessor, only amiibo from the Splatoon series are compatible in this game, where they can be scanned in into an amiibo case situated in Inkopolis Square. Some of the new features they offer are being able to save full equipment sets and control settings, with each amiibo being able to store one at a time. These can be loaded to the player's Inkling in the lobby or Equip menu. They can also be used as in-game friends where the player can take pictures with them, while having the option to dress the amiibo up in its saved gear set. The places for these photo ops are located around Inkopolis Square, which accounts for all current amiibo, as well as all multiplayer stages implemented in version 2.0.0, which only goes for the Inkling Girl, Boy and Squid amiibo. Opon scanning them in for the first time, the player is granted some headgear of the amiibo's corresponding set as a reward and further rewards can be obtained by battling.

All the amiibo, except the Callie and Marie amiibo, can be used from the start of the game. They become available to use after the player has cleared the Octo Canyon campaign. If they're scanned in before reaching the mentioned requirement both amiibo will display a message in the form of a letter from the representing character, stating that they are too busy to show up.
