 * "Hello, hel- Oh my, is that truly the only weapon in your possession? You'll need more than that if you want to be taken seriously around here! I'd offer to help... bit I'm not sure you could handle my firepower at lowly Level 1. No, I simply can't let you adopt any of my beautiful children until Level 2... at the very least! Go raise your level in some regular battles, and then come see me again, yes?" -Sheldon when entering Ammo Knights at Level 1
 * "Hello, hello! What kind of weapon are you in the market for?" - When a player enters the store
 * "You're looking fairly fresh! Yes, I think you have what it takes to wield my WEAPON! Go on, give it a try!" - When a player gains a rank or when new weapons are added
 * "And that's not all! You're also ready to wield the WEAPON!" - When more than one weapon is newly available
 * "Buy this one?" - When a player selects a weapon
 * "Equip it?" - When a player purchases a weapon
 * "Thank you! I know you'll give it a good home. Remember-tap Equip on to change weapons!" - After a player chooses whether to equip a new weapon
 * "I admire your devotion, but you already have that weapon!" - When a player tries to buy a weapon they own
 * "Hello, hel- Oh... I'm afraid you're offline right now. Come back when you're connected to the internet!" - When the player is offline.
 * "Hmmm? Wait... Are those some of my Grandpappy's long-lost blueprints you have in your possession?! Where did you find them?! Let me see those! Quickly! With these blueprints and my slightly above-average intellect, I'll be able to expand my product line!" - When a player brings some blueprints to the shop
 * "Whew...! Weapon creation: successful! If only Grandpappy were here to see his work come to life! But I still have to pay the rent here... You understand. As you know, I can't let anyone handle my wares without the proper level and, of course, payment." - After Sheldon makes a weapon from the blueprints
 * "Let's see... at your current level, you can buy the WEAPON!" - When the player is eligible to buy a weapon from the blueprints
 * "Let's see... at your current level, you can buy the WEAPON! Though it pains me to admit it, I couldn't reproduce the technology used in these blueprints... But I did manage to remodel a standard WEAPON so that it LOOKS like the gun in the pictures! Cool, eh?" - When the player is eligible to buy the reward from defeating the final boss in an Amiibo challenge
 * "Oh, the irony! I couldn’t have crafted this weapon without you, but you’re not fresh enough to wield it! I’ll keep it in my warm, crabby embrace for now. Come back and buy it after you level up, friend." - When the player is ineligible to buy a weapon from the blueprints

Shooters

 * Sheldon on the Custom Splattershot Jr.: I took my inspiration for this weapon from a strange liquid that was stuck to my grandpappy's blueprints! Its main weapon is just like the Splattershot Jr., but this one lets you weaken your foes with Disruptors! It also comes with an Echolocator, so rally your team behind you and charge into the fray!
 * Ah, the classic Splattershot. It's a modified version of a weapon that was used in the Great Turf War of old. When this weapon made a splash with the fresh kids, it helped popularize the Turf Wars we know today! The full-auto Splattershot, Burst Bombs and Bomb Rush make it a great choice for any situation. Whether you're a newbie or a pro, learn to use this set effectively and you'll be a force to be reckoned with!
 * The Tentatek Splattershot- designed in collaboration with the popular gear brand Tentatek! It's stats are the same as the standard Splattershot, but it comes with Suction Bombs and the Inkzooka! This makes it useful against tricky foes who like to keep their distance from you. Give it a shot, so to speak!
 * The Wasabi Splattershot is a Splattershot set featuring a few key adjustments by yours truly! The Main weapon is pretty much the same as before, but Splat Bombs really amp up its frontline capability. Alternatively, try calling in an Inkstrike to scatter the bad guys and give your teammates the advantage! This is just the set for the discerning Inkling looking for something spicy!
 * The Splattershot Pro was developed for more advanced users by the team behind the Splattershot! Unbalance your foes with Splat Bombs and Inkstrikes, and then hit them with superb range and accuracy! Its ink efficiency and fire rate aren't as good as the standard Splattershot's hence the "pro".
 * What do you get when you cross a pro weapon with top gear brand Forge? It's the Forge Splattershot Pro! Its stats haven't changed, but the Point Sensor and Inkzooka open up new tactical potential! Like the Splattershot Pro, it's not the easiest weapon to handle, so try it out if you've got what it takes!
 * Ah, the Berry Splattershot Pro. I've taken the basic Splattershot Pro and improved its setup. Suction Bombs help keep opponents at the perfect range to advantage of the main weapon! And the Bomb Rush can really pressure the enemy's defenses letting you run in and let 'em have it! Don't let the tasty paint job fool you; this baby can deal some serious damage!
 * Now the Aerospray MG is a shooter I made with a little help from my grandpappy's blueprints. Its range and accuracy are nothing to sneeze at, but the real draw is its amazing rate of fire! The Seekers and the Inkzooka are so easy to use, you're sure to have a blast! Thanks, Grandpappy!
 * The Aerospray RG is like the Aerospray MG I built from my grandpappy's blueprints, only...shinier! Combining its rapid-fire capabilities with tricky Ink Mines allows for some great hit-and-run tactics. Add the Inkstrike into the mix, and it's the perfect package if you like causing complete and utter chaos!
 * The Aerospray PG is a little update to the Aerospray MG that I built from my grandpappy's blueprints. It's a hand-crafted work of art, if I do say so myself. I really put a lot of love into it! The Burst Bombs let you control your opponents' movements before smashing them with the Kraken. Rated PG for severe splattings!
 * The Jet Squelcher has the top range of any rapid-fire weapon, approaching that of the charger weapons. It sacrifices attack power, though, so focus on hiding behind your Splash Wall and charging up the Inkstrike! It's best for fighters who know how to strike at the most opportune moment!
 * The Custom Jet Squelcher is just a Jet Squelcher with a custom appearance. No surprise there! It comes with Burst Bombs to pin down your foes and the Kraken to let you deal the finishing blow! If you like to keep your foes under pressure, this weapon set could be just what you're looking for!
 * The Dual Squelcher adds a manifold mechanism to the Jet Squelcher for extreme range and firing rate. Claim turf, fire out those Echolocators, and then attack the opponents' position with Splat Bombs! So I'd recommend it if those kinds of tricksy tactics happen to be your style!
 * The Custom Dual Squelcher is exactly what is sounds like—a Dual Squelcher with a custom look! What's new is the Squid Beakon, letting you lead your team, and the Killer Wail to pressure your foes! I'd say it's perfect for master tacticians who can keep track of the entire field of battle.
 * Ah, now the L-3 Nozzlenose is a semiautomatic shooter. It fires three shots each time you pull the trigger! Its range and accuracy are great, but you can't keep firing by holding down, so good timing is a must! This set includes Disruptors and the Killer Wail as well. It's well suited to those who like to fight efficiently.
 * The L-3 Nozzlenose D is a standard L-3 Nozzlenose, decorated with badges from its manufacturer. Its stats are unchanged, but this set includes Burst Bombs and the Kraken- an aggressive combination! Attack with a Burst Bomb, and then finish them with your shooter. It's an easy set to get the hang of!
 * The H-3 Nozzlenose is a semiautomatic with more firepower than its L-3 twin. The H stands for "heavy"! It can't fire as rapidly, but you can pinpoint foes with the Echolocator to make every shot count! Suction Bombs can also make an effective defense, so this set is a good choice for well-rounded fighters!
 * The H-3 Nozzlenose D is an H-3 Nozzlenose decorated with added badges from the manufacturer. The badges don't actually affect its abilities, but it does include a Point Sensor and the mighty Inkzooka. In the right hands, this interesting combination of abilities may give rise to many unique strategies!
 * The Cherry H-3 Nozzlenose is an entry-level H-3 Nozzlenose designed with user-friendliness in mind. It's super cute with its fruity color scheme and cherry-themed sticker! The sub weapon is the Splash Wall, which lets you halt the enemy and pick them off at your leisure. With a Bubbler as the special, this set suits those who believe the best offense is a good defense!
 * The N-ZAP '85 is a Shooter with excellent ink efficiency and rapid-fire capability! Its attack power isn't all that, but it's fabulous at quickly charging up the Echolocator special weapon. Combined with Splat Bombs, this set caters to fighters who like to cover a lot of ground in battle!
 * Ah yes, the N-ZAP '89. This is quite simply an N-ZAP '85 that was redesigned for... legal reasons. It includes a Sprinkler to rapidly increase your turf, allowing you to fire off remarkably fast Inkstrikes! This set is excellent at striking where the foe least expects it. Good for lone wolves!
 * The N-ZAP '83 is an N-ZAP '85 that I've modified to faithfully recreate a classic limited-edition piece. It's so faithful, in fact, that the buttons might stick a bit sometimes... But that's all part of the charm, yes? The Point Sensor and Kraken make for a set that is handy for cutting off your opponents' advance.
 * For your main weapon, I present the Splash-o-matic, a weapon fine-tuned for highly accurate barrages! It's a little lacking in power, but it can ink the ground rapidly, letting you quickly fill up your special gauge. Then with the Bomb Rush special weapon, you can toss Suction Bombs to your heart's content! Fun, yes?
 * The Neo Splash-o-matic has the same capabilities as the original set, but with new sub and special weapons. Hit your opponent with Burst Bombs, and then give them a taste of precision shooting! With the Inkzooka too, this is a set for an aggressive sharpshooter who's not afraid to get messy!
 * With its wide muzzle, the Sploosh-o-matic is specialized for close-combat situations. Beat back the enemy while placing Squid Beakons on their turf, and then mop up with the deadly Killer Wail! This weapon set excels at opening holes in the opponents' defenses for your teammates to exploit.
 * The Neo Sploosh-o-matic is a custom Sploosh-o-matic emblazoned with an original emblem. Mark your opponents with the Point Sensor, and then crush them with the power of the Kraken! Getting in close is vital for this setup, so it is suited to battlers who excel at flanking their foes.
 * The Sploosh-o-matic 7 retains the stats of the original model while adding more strategic options. Splat Bombs combined with an Inkzooka enable you to pressure opponents at both middle and long range. In fact, this weapon has so many uses, I bet it could even make your bed or do your laundry! (Not a guarantee.)
 * The .52 Gal is a heavy hitter with an extra large nozzle for shooting massive amounts of ink! It's powerful, but pretty slow. If you find yourself in trouble, throw up a Splash Wall and retreat! The Killer Wail can be used offensively or defensively, so it's good for fighters who can read the flow of battle!
 * The .52 Gal Deco is a standard .52 Gal with a little extra flair added by pro designers! Its stats aren't any different, but it does come with Seekers to open up new battle tactics. And with the Inkstrike as its special, this set allows you to really dominate the battlefield!
 * The .96 Gal's main weapon has an extra-large ink tank, allowing for powerful shots with a lot of range! And the Sprinkler and Echolocator can be used to keep foes riiiiiiight where you want them. So it's an excellent weapon for fighters who want to control the pace of battle!
 * The .96 Gal Deco is a standard .96 Gal with a little added flair! Unlike the standard .96 Gal, though, you can approach with the Splash Wall, and then...release the Kraken. That would be my strategy, anyway! I'd recommend it to fighters who want to charge the front lines!

Blasters

 * The Luna Blaster is a specialized shooter that can unleash explosive power at close range! Its rate of fire is good, and its blasts cover a wide area, but you'll need the Inkzooka to hit far-off foes. Oh, and the Ink Mines can really make a difference in the right hands, so this set is perfect for veterans!
 * The Luna Blaster Neo is a remodeled Luna Blaster made with original parts. The Splat Bombs and Bomb Rush ensure that you'll cause a riot of inksplosions wherever you go! This is definitely a set for those who prefer to throw caution to the wind and charge into the fray!
 * The Blaster fires ink shots that explode a short while after they've been shot. It's specialized in offense! Rapid fire and range aren't its strong points, but the powerful shots can damage anyone within their blast! Use the included Disruptors to disable your foes before you take them down. Great for coolheaded fighters!
 * The Custom Blaster is a standard-model Blaster with a customized appearance. No difference in stats, but this one comes with a Point Sensor to track down your foes wherever they hide! And with the Bubbler, you can charge in without fear once you've located them! What a great combo!
 * As the name suggests, the Range Blaster is a Blaster with shots that travel farther before exploding. Its fire rate is reduced, but the combination of explosive power and range can be positively deadly! Complemented by the Splash Wall and Inkstrike, it's perfect for distance fighters!
 * The Custom Range Blaster is, as you might expect, a Range Blaster with a slick customized appearance. It has the same stats but comes with Splat Bombs to compensate for its lack of efficacy at close range. Coupled with the powerful Kraken, this set should prove popular with blaster virtuosos!
 * The Grim Range Blaster is a Range Blaster pushed to its limits. It's "totally metal", or so I'm assured. The black and green flame design is for squids who want their look to be as aggressive as their weapon. The Main works just like a Range Blaster, but the new Burst Bombs really amp up the splat speed of this set. The impressive range of the Killer Wail also adds a lot. Try this set out if you think you have a good feel for the range of a Blaster type weapon!
 * The Rapid Blaster is a Blaster modified to increase its rate of fire and ink efficiency. It's not as powerful as the Blaster, but its fast shots and powerful Ink Mines are great for pressuring foes. With a Bubbler as well, it's probably the easiest blaster to use, so I'd recommend giving it a try!
 * As you can likely guess, the Rapid Blaster Deco is just a Rapid Blaster that's been, well, decorated! This version comes with Suction Bombs, which are great for forcing sneaky foes out into the open. And with the Bomb Rush special, you'll be able to toss those bombs to your heart's content!
 * The Rapid Blaster Pro is based on the Rapid Blaster, but it's further specialized for increased range. Follow your Seekers to zip into an advantageous position and strike from your opponent's blind spot! The Inkzooka makes this a great set for frontline fighters who like to cause big problems for their foes!
 * The Rapid Blaster Pro Deco may be a bit of a mouthful, but it's worth it for that snazzy decoration! Its stats match the Rapid Blaster Pro's, but it includes Disruptors to weaken your foes before you splat them! Oh, and your Killer Wail can restrict them even more! Give this set a try if that's your sort of thing.

Rollers

 * The Carbon Roller is a lightweight roller built with low-density parts for increased handling! Soften up the foe with Burst Bombs] while you ink the ground and prepare to unleash the [[Inkzooka! Want to use a roller but don't like feeling weighed down? Now you can have your cake and eat it too!
 * The Carbon Roller Deco is a Carbon Roller specially decorated by top designers. It can be hard inking a path quickly with a roller, but Seekers and Bomb Rush can help you to do just that! Now you can approach foes quickly and swing your roller in their face! Perfect for hit-and-run tactics!
 * The Splat Roller represents the Roller class of weapons, useful for close combat and also for inking turf. Tap ZR to fling ink at foes, or hold it down to ink the ground as you run! Rollers began as unofficial weapons but became so popular that they're now an officially recognized style! The included Suction Bombs and Killer Wail are powerful too, so this is great set to learn the Roller ropes.
 * The Krak-On Splat Roller is a collaboration design with the popular Krak-On gear brand! Drop Squid Beakons in your wake as you tear through the stage, and call your comrades into the fray! Then, when the time is right, you can unleash the Kraken! This is a great set for who those who love to ink!
 * The CoroCoro Splat Roller is decorated with a cool logo I found inscribed on some ancient writings. It has a new hollow titanium frame, ball-bearing joints, steering dampers, super-stabilizers... So many new parts, in fact, that it kind of...came full circle. The specs ended up identical to the Splat Roller. But this is the first roller set with a Splash Wall! And I also threw in an Inkzooka because why not?!
 * (Hero Roller Replica, unknown quote)
 * The Dynamo Roller is a roller I designed myself upon using my granddad's blueprints! It wound up with incredible power, but the dynamo motor does weigh it down a bit... oh, well. Anyway, ink turf with the Sprinkler and track enemies with the Echolocator, and you'll be winning in no time!
 * The Gold Dynamo Roller is another roller I designed. It boasts the same power as the standard Dynamo Roller! I think the Dynamo Roller's offensive power nicely complements the reliable Splat Bombs and Inkstrike! Combine them all, and your attacks will hit home with unprecedented force! Your foes will flee before you!
 * This beauty is the Tempered Dynamo Roller. It simply oozes style! Check out the sweet burnt effect. The addition of Seekers has really improved this set's maneuverability and ability to pressure the front lines. When you've got 'em on the back foot, BAM! Killer Wail! This set suits battlers who like to pile on the pressure!

Brushes

 * The Inkbrush is similar to roller weapons, but it inks the ground as fast as you can dash! It's weak and a bit narrow, but you can make up for that with Sprinklers and Inkstrikes! I would recommend this weapon to anyone who wishes to try out a new type of fighting style!
 * The Inkbrush Nouveau has the same abilities as the Inkbrush, but it comes with quite a different setup! You can use the brush to swiftly lay Ink Mines. Your opponents won't know what hit 'em. And since you can share the Bubbler with your allies, this is a great set if you like to support your team!
 * The Permanent Inkbrush is an Inkbrush with a modded setup, allowing for a new playstyle! Open up a hole in the opponents' defences with Splat Bombs and zip in to pressure them! If that's not destructive enough for you, unleash the Kraken and go on a rampage! This is a set for aggressive battlers with a simply uncontrollable urge to wreak maximum havoc!
 * The Octobrush is a brush with denser bristles that fling even more ink with each swipe! Use that mobility to scatter Squid Beakons everywhere, giving your whole team free rein of the battlefield! No need to hesitate - you can always use the Kraken to run away in a pinch. Your team will love you!
 * The Octobrush Nouveau matches the Octobrush in stats but features an all-new Sub and Special setup! More specifically, it comes with the versatile Splat Bomb and Inkzooka for maximum ease of use. Brushes are a fun weapon type to use, so I'd use this set to get the hang of using brushes.

Chargers

 * The Splat Charger is a Charger-type weapon, designed for long-range offense. Hold down ZR to charge up ink, and then release to fire it all out at once, inking a long path in an instant! With this weapon type's debut, Turf Wars expanded from mid-range battles to something more complex! With easy-to-use Splat Bombs and Bomb Rush, this is a good set to get used to the charger fighting style!
 * I created the Kelp Splat Charger based on my grandpappy's blueprints. Cool seaweed design, right? Though, if I'm honest, it's exactly the same as the Splat Charger in stats. But this set comes with the Sprinkler to ink hard-to-reach locations while you hold a strategic position! And the Killer Wail will blow all of your opponents away! Use it well to turn the tide of battle!
 * The Bento Splat Charger features some weird green stuff I found washed up on a beach. I think it's cool. It's basically the same as the regular Splat Charger, but I've amped up the defense with a Splash Wall. The Echolocator makes this set perfect for caring souls who love to support their teammates.
 * (Hero Charger Replica, unknown quote)
 * The Classic Squiffer - for a charge weapon, it's lacking in range, but in return it can charge up much faster. Use the Bubbler to get in close after zeroing in on your opponents with the Point Sensor! This set is an excellent choice for fighters who are confident taking out foes with a decisive shot.
 * My grandpappy's blueprints inspired me to update the Classic Squiffer set. I call it the New Squiffer! Use the Inkzooka to keep foes at bay as you surround your territory with deadly Ink Mines! Charger-type weapons are generally offensive, but a defensive style can be surprisingly effective too!
 * The new and improved Fresh Squiffer is a Classic Squiffer retooled to allow a different approach. If your foes are laying low, Suction Bombs will let you easily smoke them out from wherever they're cowering. But if they're going on the offensive instead, no need to worry! Turn the tables on them with the Kraken! This is definitely not a set for squids who are afraid to get their tentacles dirty!
 * The Splatterscope is a Splat Charger with an added scope for effective long-distance aiming. It's great for hitting far-off targets, but your view is narrow while charging, so careful where you use it!
 * The Kelp Splatterscope is a Kelp Splat Charger with an added scope for effective long-distance aiming. It's great for hitting far-off targets, but your view is narrow while charging, so careful where you use it!
 * The Bento Splatterscope is a Bento Splat Charger with a scope added for long-range sniping. This set suits (passive) agressive squids who like to pick off opponents from a distance. Blammo!
 * The E-liter 3K is designed to withstand extreme pressure, allowing you to charge it up even further! As a result, it has incredible range and truly fearsome attack power! It's great for forging a path forward. Hit nearby foes with Burst Bombs, and then make sure they've got nowhere to hide with the Echolocator!
 * The Custom E-liter 3K is an E-liter 3K modified with custom parts for a unique appearance! Use the Squid Beakons to send your teammates on ahead while you find a good spot to back them up. If anyone gets too close, give 'em a taste of Kraken! This set is well suited for defensive battlers.
 * The Custom E-liter 3K Scope is a Custom E-liter 3K with an added scope for long-distance aiming. It's great for hitting far-off targets, but your view is narrow while charging, so careful where you use it!
 * The Bamboozler 14 Mk I is a modernized working replica of a weapon once used by a legendary commander! Its nostalgic appearance is faithful to the weaponry of the time, but its range and firepower aren't great. However, it charges quickly and is pretty powerful at max range, so set up that Splash Wall and get sniping! Oh, and it also features the powerful Killer Wail! Step into the shoes of the legendary captains with this classic!
 * The Bamboozler 14 Mk II has the same stats as the Mk I, but its new look is super snazzy! Use the Echolocator to find enemies, disable them with Disruptor, then finish them off with the Bamboozler! Such terrifying efficiency is only right for a legendary weapon. Use it to relive the Great Turf War days of old!
 * The Bamboozler 14 Mk III takes the Mk I and swaps out the barrel for a different bamboo pipe. This set's selling point is how the main weapon and the Burst Bombs can really hammer your opponent! That's not to mention the Inkstrike, which can make life difficult for even far-off enemies. This really is a set worthy of the legendary name- Actually, no... A set that REDEFINES what it means to be a Bamboozler!
