Popalicious Station

Popalicious Station is a test in Splatoon 2 's paid downloadable content, the Octo Expansion. This station is unlocked after clearing either Stamped-Up Station or Duh-Oh Station.

Access
The player must clear either Stamped-Up Station or Duh-Oh Station to access this test.

Brief Overview
The player must pop 50 balloons. Thoroughout the test, all the balloons will float away if they are not popped quickly enough. Some balloons move in circles, making them more difficult to pop. Once all balloons in a group are popped, the next group appears.

First Area
The player starts on a platform seperate from the rest of the stage, with a Launchpad that leads to the main platform. Upon landing, three balloons will appear. Directly ahead on the other side of the grate, a single balloon will appear.

Second Area
Ahead four balloons will appear, as well as one to the left. Going forward will not lead to another part of the stage, so it is recommended to pop the group of four before the singular balloon. After popping all five balloons, six balloons will appear forward of the singular balloon, which are above Sanitized Octowashers.

Directly ahead are a group of eight balloons, arranged in a rectangle. Afterward, a single balloon spawns to the right.

Third Area
Use the Bounce Pads behind the wall to reach the balloon, depending on your weapon of choice, and hop over the wall to a set of 8 balloons. After popping the balloons, move to your right to find a single balloon. Upon popping, to your left, three balloons will appear. After popping, one balloon will appear, and an Octowasher will be present again. Beyond the Octowasher is a second balloon, and after popping, leads to a single balloon that spawns four balloons when popped. Continue on after the four and pop the three balloons that appear one after the other, using the Gusher to reach the third. After popping, at your right, three balloons will appear, one alone, then the other two together. After being popped, jump down to the next balloon in the lowest area. Upon being popped, three balloons will be present behind crates. There will then be one balloon that will float along the path, and after popping, will spawn another balloon past two Bounce Pads and an Octowasher. Past that, two balloons will spawn in past two Octowashers going in circles. Once popped, go past a wall of crates to the final balloon.
