The full weapon name could be used, but these abbreviations and alternate names make communication more efficient. [[Special weapon]]s should also be called out if they are being deployed.

The common prefix "V-" refers to the unbranded or "Vanilla" kit of a main weapon. Similarly, "K-" refers to the Kensa kit given to many main weapons in Splatoon 2. Both have been shortened further, for example into "Viper" ("vanilla" Splatana Wiper) and "Krapid" (Kensa Rapid Blaster). Certain other kits have received the same treatment for various reasons, such as the "Clapples", "Zimi" and "Diper".
Note that weapons are often given more specific callouts in contexts where they need to be differentiated from each other - for example, the Sloshing Machine may be called "Slosher" when alone, "Machine" when paired with another Slosher-class weapon, or "V-Machine" when paired with a Sloshing Machine Neo.

This article discusses content that is not part of the official Splatoon series but is part of the community or competitive gaming space.

Callouts are concise phrases designed to broadcast as much information about the enemy as possible in as few syllables. Splatoon squads should consider using them to improve team coordination.

Callouts use a common format of [number of enemies] at [location]. More detailed information may be called out: [weapon held by enemy] at [location] moving to [location].

If the enemy has taken damage: [weapon held by enemy] is weak.

To say that the enemy is located where the player got splatted: on my X. To signal the location, the splatted player needs to press the signal button D-Pad.

Traded with [weapon held by enemy] is used to communicate that both the player and the enemy got splatted.

Got [number of enemies] or got [weapon held by enemy] are used to report any successful splats.

[weapon held by enemy] got me is used to communicate that the player got splatted and the team is one down.

[weapon held by enemy] jumped out is used to communicate that the enemy Super Jumped away.

For example, a typical callout would be "charger on their snipe". This callout alerts the team that a Splat Charger or E-liter player is at the most common sniping location.

Weapon naming

The full weapon name could be used, but these abbreviations and alternate names make communication more efficient. Special weapons should also be called out if they are being deployed.

The common prefix "V-" refers to the unbranded or "Vanilla" kit of a main weapon. Similarly, "K-" refers to the Kensa kit given to many main weapons in Splatoon 2. Both have been shortened further, for example into "Viper" ("vanilla" Splatana Wiper) and "Krapid" (Kensa Rapid Blaster). Certain other kits have received the same treatment for various reasons, such as the "Clapples", "Zimi" and "Diper".

Note that weapons are often given more specific callouts in contexts where they need to be differentiated from each other - for example, the Sloshing Machine may be called "Slosher" when alone, "Machine" when paired with another Slosher-class weapon, or "V-Machine" when paired with a Sloshing Machine Neo.

Shooters

Generic - None (Too varied and too common for a generic callout to have any meaning).

Blasters

Generic - Blaster.

Chargers

Generic - Charger (rarely used for Bamboozlers).


Rollers

Generic - None (The callout "Roller" is specific to Splat Rollers).

Brushes

Generic - Brush. Brushes have no specific callouts, as there are rarely multiple in the same context.

Sloshers

Generic - Slosher.

Splatlings

Generic - Splatling, Ling.

Dualies

Generic - None (The callout "Dualies" is specific to Splat Dualies).

Brellas

Generic - Brella (Rarely used for Tenta Brellas).

Stringers

Generic - Bow.

Splatanas

Generic - Splatana, Sword.

Location naming
