Sloshing Machine
Template:Infobox weapon The Sloshing Machine is a DLC Slosher Main Weapon in Splatoon that was released on November 28th, 2015 at Template:UTC.[1][2]
Description
When used, the Sloshing Machine creates a long, thin streak of ink with a larger blot at the end[3], similar to a blaster. More specifically, it is very much like the Rapid Blaster, with similar splash and direct damage, range, and speed. With these Blaster-like capabilities, however, comes poorer turf coverage and less consistent damage than the more straightforward sloshers.
| “ | A compact washing machine that's been adapted for battle. The spinning action means that the area around the ink glob also gets a dose of ink. | ” |

Sheldon's Introduction
"An innovative new weapon that puts a "spin" on the classic Slosher model. The Sloshing Machine is sure to make your whites whiter than white and your turf inkier than inked! This weapon's attractions are the power of the main shot and the bonus ink flung out by the vortex. The Splat Bombs and Bomb Rush combine to send the battlefield into a whirlpool of confusion!"

The Bomb Range Up ability allows players to throw Splat Bombs, Burst Bombs, Suction Bombs, Point Sensors, and Disruptors up to 50% farther. This ability encourages frequent use of the Shoshing Machine's sub weapon, the Splat Bomb, which will allow it to reach enemy squids from a safer distance.
