Griller

Grillers are Boss Salmonids that appear in Salmon Run in.

Description
Giant barbeque grill-like Salmonids covered in armor, they move along a path while ink falls beneath their slim bodies (similar to Flooders). It chases after a randomly chosen Inkling, designated by a laser pointer on its underside. The Griller will relentlessly pursue the inkling the tracking laser is pointed at. They are frequently accompanied by Smallfry swarms.

In order to destroy a Griller, players must first hit its the exposed tail back to stun it, then attack the three other tails which appear while it's stunned. Anywhere else, and the overgrown fish takes no damage. If an Inkling runs into its ink, it's an instant splat. Grillers are fast and unpredictable, so players have to be careful and wary of both the Salmonoid as well as its Smallfry escorts.

Grillers only show up in certain special wave. If Mr Grizz talks about Grillers in the dialogue box instead of boss salmonoids, that means the players are in the special wave. This wave consists of only Grillers and small groups of smallfry. Grillers only show up one at a time due to how bothersome they are to kill, but later on in the wave, they show up in pairs of two.
