Chinook

From Inkipedia, the Splatoon wiki

Template:Images Chinooks are Salmonids that appear during Mothership. They are the only Salmonoid that drops Golden Eggs during this occasion. Instead of dropping three Eggs, they will only drop one.

Appearance

Chinooks resemble Octocopters and carry large white and blue crates from the Mothership. They will not follow the Mothership when it goes to the Egg Basket. Chinooks do not attack. The crates they drop will spawn Lesser Salmonids. These crates will glow red when they are about to open but can be destroyed before doing so. Chinook is a kind of airship. If attacked, it will slowly drop one Golden Egg. Because of this, it is it is debatable if they are boss Salmonids.

Tips

  • While the Chinook is prepared to drop an enemy crate, it'll quickly take off, so make sure to splat them quickly before they get away.
