Changing name to Speedy Twintacle Octotrooper

In The Art of Splatoon 2, they are called "Speedy Twintacle Octotrooper". Should this page be changed to use that name?  GX_64 (talk)  06:37, 26 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

This feels like the best name for these enemies. “Rocket” isn’t even the official term for these enemies. It’s just something that Marina mentioned like, once in the octo expansion. My question is why they had “Deluxe” in their names before. Were they actually not named in Splatoon 2? OrderSquid38 [Talk] 06:45, 26 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
