Hero Shot Replica

The Hero Shot Replica is a Shooter in Splatoon and effectively a reskin of the Splattershot, with the same stats and loadout. It is only available from the after completing all of its Octo Valley challenges.

Description
The Hero Shot Replica is based off of the Hero Shot, the main Shooter in Octo Valley. However, when the blueprints are given to Sheldon at Ammo Knights, the player is informed that he can not recreate the technology used in the original gun, so only a replica could be made, which shares the exact stats as the Splattershot and the same Sub/Special loadout (Burst Bombs and Bomb Rush). ""A sweet replica created by Sheldon from his grandfather's blueprints. It looks funky fresh, to be sure, but apparently it's just a regular Splattershot with a fancy paint job...""
