Revision as of 04:03, 28 February 2023
The Splash-o-matic is a main weapon in the Splatoon series, coming from the weapon brand Neo.
Its attack power is slightly better than the Aerosprays but has a slightly diminished rate of fire equal to the Splattershot Jr. It has a narrower splat range outwards.
Appearance
The Splash-o-matic, similarly to its cousin the Sploosh-o-matic, seems to be a marker or pen inside a metal frame. The marker changes color to match the user's ink. The Splash-o-matic has what appears to be a pressure sensor near the nozzle, and flanking the nozzle is a pair of levers with black handles. On the back of the Splash-o-matic is a small black attachment that supports a lever. The rings on the attachment and the lever also change color to match the user's ink. Attached to the marker are the handle and trigger.

“ | One for the pros. Not outrageously powerful, but highly accurate. This weapon really comes into its own in the hands of someone with good aim. | ” | — In-game description
|
“ | Its shots don't spread much, and it has excellent rapid-fire capability. It could be said to be a bit lacking in attack power, but zero in on a target and they'll burst in no time flat. Plus, this bad boy comes equipped with Suction Bombs as a sub weapon, and Bomb Rush as a special weapon. | ” |

Sheldon's Introduction
For your main weapon, I present the Splash-o-matic, a weapon fine-tuned for highly accurate barrages! It's a little lacking in power, but it provides pretty good cover with its rapid fire. You can limit your opponent's movements with Toxic Mist, and then complete the domination with the Inkjet special! I recommend this for aggressive players who want to lay the smackdown on their opponents! |

Sheldon's Introduction
For your main weapon, I present the Splash-o-matic, a weapon fine-tuned for highly accurate barrages! It may not have the ink spread or raw power of some weapons, but it more than makes up for it with rapid fire that is quite rapid indeed. Plus, when you can pin down an enemy with Burst Bombs, you don't need as much power. Simply splatter them at your leisure while they're mired in your ink. And with the Crab Tank special your back pocket, nothing can stand in your way! Try not to laugh maniacally as you overpower the other team time and again. |

Trivia
- This weapon is tied with the Octobrush, Herobrush Replica, and Custom Goo Tuber for the cheapest Inkjet in Splatoon 2 with 170p.
- In the Octo Expansion, the Splash-o-Matic does not have perfect firing accuracy while jumping. There was an update that gave the Splash-o-matic perfect accuracy, but it was released after the expansion was released and was not applied to the expansion; Nintendo generally does not apply post-release weapon balance updates to single-player modes.
Etymology
Splash-o-matic is derived from Splash and Automatic. The -o-matic suffix is also a common, cliché naming convention for technological gadgets.
シャープマーカー Shāpu mākā (Sharp Marker) references the pen-based appearance of the Splash-o-matic. The name is also to contrast it with the Sploosh-o-matic. The highly accurate Splash-o-matic is named after a sharp marker pen, while the Sploosh-o-matic with its wide, cone-shaped muzzle is more akin to a bold marker pen.
