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 can ink the ground rapidly, letting you quickly fill up your special gauge.
Then with the Bomb Rush special weapon, you can toss Suction Bombs to your heart's content! Fun, yes?(NA)[a] |

“ | "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! |
