Octoballer

Octoballers are Octarians in and the Octo Expansion.

Description
Octoballers are large bowling balls with an Octotrooper inside one of the finger holes. They roll until anything solid gets in the way, or if the player splats the Octarian inside of them using their weapon or a Gusher. They ink a path in a straight line from where they were launched and are usually launched alternating left then right. When splatted, they give no Power Eggs unless they are rare yellow Octoballers, which give ten Power Eggs, or Kingpin Octoballers, which give twenty. Despite having the word 'Baller' in their name, Octoballers' balls are designed to resemble bowling balls and have no connection to the special weapon. They are adorned with an emblem on the side, which looks like a circle of arrows pointing to the center of the side of the ball. There also exists a giant version which holds two Octotroopers inside of a glass cockpit replacing the holes. They can be splatted only by pushing them off the stage with an extending platform, or if the player uses an Ink Cannon to hit the Octarians inside. The balls are deployed from a bowling alley-style launcher, which makes noise before the Octarian pops its head out of the ball, then the ball starts rolling. The Octarian inside a regular Octoballer ducks its head inside its hole whenever it nears the ground.

Attacks
Octoballers are fired from cannons and roll on the ground, splatting anything that gets in the way. They can be destroyed by attacking the Octotrooper. Some Octoballers do not leave behind a trail of ink. Kingpin Octoballers move more slowly, but they can only be destroyed with Ink Cannons.
