Shelly and Donny

Shelly and Donny are the weapons dealers for Ammo Knights in Inkopolis in.

Appearance
Shelly and Donny resemble Sheldon, but are noticeably smaller and more infantile-looking. Notably, their shells are partially translucent, and as Triops, their tails are forked. They have large, round, conjoined eyes, and wear yellow uniforms resembling those of the Boy Scouts.

Personality and traits
Shelly and Donny are said to look up to Sheldon and seem to behave rather similarly to him, with the majority of Shelly's dialogue being direct or near-direct quotes of Sheldon's dialogue. Both of them seem to have some degree of speech impediments, with Shelly occasionally struggling to pronounce words, and Donny consistently speaking with rhotacism and lambdacism (meaning a difficulty pronouncing "R" and "L" sounds, respectively). These speech impediments are likely due to the fact that they are young children. Shelly is the more talkative of the two, being the one to deliver most of their shop dialogue, with Donny only chiming in occasionally after Shelly says something.

While their shop dialogue in English is mostly the same as or derivative of Sheldon's, Shelly does have unique dialogue as an opponent in the Tableturf Battle Dojo, showing a cheerful and somewhat excitable personality. Donny does not speak in the Tableturf Battle Dojo, but does stand next to Shelly, apparently watching the game.

Shelly and Donny are similar to Timmy and Tommy from the Animal Crossing series, both being duos of visually identical young boys who are shopkeepers and apprentices of an older shopkeeper character that they resemble. Shelly and Donny's names are also based on Timmy and Tommy's names.

Quotes
"SRL HR dept. with an org-chart update. With Sheldon working in Splatsville, his protégés, Shelly and Donny, now run Ammo Knights in Inkopolis! The little cuties really look up to Sheldon, so don't be surprised if they seem familiar. They clearly share Sheldon's love of weapons!"

Maar wat ik u wel kan vertellen: ga naar de orange en speel wat orange. Tot u op orange zit! Gelukkig duurt dat meestal niet zo lang!"
 * "Veew suwces!"
 * (Hello, he... Oh, gee. Is... Is that really the only weapon you have? I'd love to tell you all about all the fun little things that are here in the store, but, um...

 * (Hello, hello! Oh! You must be looking for something. Hopefully for weapons? Because we have them here. Wow, what do you have THERE?! Are you collecting an-anti... old weapons? That seems like a fun hobby, but perhaps you want something fresher for on the battlefield?)


 * "Maar voor u zo'n mooi, nieuw wapen mag meenemen, moet u wel de juiste orange hebben, oké?"
 * (But before you are allowed to take such a beautiful, new weapon with you, you must have the right orange, okay?)


 * "U krijgt Krabbert-vergunnie... nings... door te vechten en uw niveau te verbeteren. Of door zo vaak met een wapen te vechten dat u daar heel goed mee bent. Oho! Sorry, dat had ik niet gezien! U heeft al een heuse orange op zak! U bent een echte kenner! In dat geval heeft u meteen veel meer keuze! Kijk eens hoeveel wapens we u dan kunnen laten zien! Gefele... feliesie... Goed hoor!"
 * "Fielesteert."

You already have a genuine orange in your pocket! You are a true connoisseur! In that case, you immediately have much more choice! Look how many weapons we can show you then! Congratu... gratulate... Well done!)

When attempting to buy an unlocked weapon with Golden Sheldon Lincenses:
 * "O, dat is ook niet leuk... U heeft geen Krabbert-vergunnie...nies op zak. U heeft wel orange gouden Krabbert-vergunnie. En die neem ik maar al te graag aan. Maar, eh... Dat is misschien wel een beetje zonde, die zijn heel veel waard. Wilt u echt die gouden Krabbert-vergunnie... ning gebruiken?"
 * (Oh, that's not nice... You don't have Sheldon Licensie...sies in your pocket. You do have orange Gold Sheldon Licensie. And I'm only too eager to take it. But, um... That might be a bit of a waste, those are worth a lot. Do you really want to use that Gold Sheldon Licensie... sies?)

After a weapon is bought with the last remaining Golden Sheldon Licenses:

Etymology
Shelly and Donny come from each syllable of Sheldon with the diminutive suffix -y. They also resemble the names of Timmy and Tommy from the Animal Crossing series, a similar duo of characters.
