It starts out empty until it becomes full after 5 shifts, or an encounter happens, resetting it back to zero. | Each player has a Salmometer (called "smell" in the game's files) that increases by 1 after every shift without encountering a King Salmonid, no matter the outcome of the shift (win or loss at any wave).

Cohozuna, one of the King Salmonids
Species | Salmonid |
Location | Salmon Run Next Wave |
King Salmonids are enormous Salmonids that appear as bosses in the Xtrawave of Salmon Run Next Wave in Splatoon 3.
Description
One King Salmonid appears in an Xtrawave after the shift finishes, depending on how full the team's Salmometers are. The crew will need to defeat the King Salmonid within the time limit while fighting other Boss Salmonids. It can be defeated by using the player's main, sub, and special weapons. Additionally, an egg cannon is supplied to all players during an Xtrawave, and with it, Golden Eggs can be thrown at the King Salmonid to deal massive damage to it.
Types of King Salmonids
The Triumvirate
A trailer[1] showcasing Sizzle Season 2024 revealed the BIG Big Run, where all three King Salmonids will be fought at the same time as The Triumvirate.
Salmometer
Each player has a Salmometer (called "smell" in the game's files) that increases by 1 after every shift without encountering a King Salmonid, no matter the outcome of the shift (win or loss at any wave). This meter can be seen in the top right of the screen while in the Grizzco building. It starts out empty until it becomes full after 5 shifts, or when an encounter happens, resetting it back to zero.
The sum of every team member's Salmometer gives the probability of a King Salmonid appearing at the end of wave 3. When all four meters are full, the encounter is guaranteed.
Note that the visual representation below is only for easier readability, not the exact meters needed. For example, four meters at 1 would be equal to one meter at 4.
The second table shows a simplified version for 4-person teams playing together with their meters synced — mainly, if a King is encountered and the team keeps playing together afterwards.

Quotes
“ | Squid Research Lab is excited and more than a little scared to reveal the existence of a King Salmonid. This unfathomably terrifying creature can be scientifically described as "ginormous." We hope to release more details soon. | ” |
— @SplatoonNA on Twitter[3]
|
“ | Sadly, it's not all break rooms and promotions in the working world. Sometimes you have a tough day at the office and get attacked by a King Salmonid. HR recommends fighting it off with an egg cannon (you could earn bonus fish scales) and then taking a personal day. | ” |

Trivia
- Similar to Boss Salmonids, some of the King Salmonids' attacks seem to be inspired by various Specials. Cohozunas use an attack similar to Splashdown, whereas Horrorboros uses the Booyah Bomb.
- Megalodontia, similar to Maws, seems to be inspired by the Octomaw boss from Splatoon as opposed to any particular special.
- King Salmonids appear to have iridescent scales on their bodies, which might explain the collection of fish scales from them.
Etymology
The English name is derived from "king salmon" and "Salmonid".
