Power Egg



Power Eggs (JP: イクラ ikura) are a type of collectible currency in Splatoon's singleplayer Hero Mode.

Description
Power Eggs are small, orange orbs that appear similar to fish eggs which belong to the Zapfish. They can be found on all Hero Mode missions, typically on platforms, placed such that they show where the player should go to progress. They can collect them by directly touching them or splattering them with ink. Although they are often found in the open, they may also be hidden in crates, balloons, or Octarians. Power Eggs can be used to upgrade the Hero Shot, Ink Tank and Splat Bombs, as well as unlock and upgrade the Burst Bomb and Seeker Sub Weapons.

Upgrades
You can spend power eggs to upgrade your special "Hero" Equipment. Upgrading your gear also changes the colour of the lights on them.

Upgrading the "Hero Shot" increases the rate of fire, while upgrading the Ink Tank increases the capacity, and upgrading the bombs increases their blast radius.

Any upgrades purchased do not affect any of the amiibo challenges.
