Sheldon's Introduction
The Custom Splattershot Jr. offers the same functions as the File:S2 Weapon Splattershot Jr. .png [[]] but with a twist on how you battle! Smoke out your opponents with File:S2 Weapon Autobomb .png [[]]s and splat them when they pop up! They can be combined with the File:S2 Weapon Ink Storm .png [[]] special to smoke out opponents from a large area. I recommend this for players who like moving together as a team! |

The Custom Splattershot Jr. is a Shooter in Splatoon and the first weapon unlocked using a Sunken Scroll from Octo Valley. It is an alternate version of the File:S Weapon Splattershot Jr. .png [[]], with File:S Weapon Disruptor .png [[]]s and the File:S Weapon Echolocator .png [[]] for a more strategic play style. It is ideal for covering large territories with ink quickly. Its low accuracy provides a wider spread of ink while moving, and its low damage means it uses less ink per shot, allowing for more shots per tank of ink. It is in a set with the File:S Weapon Disruptor .png [[]] and File:S Weapon Echolocator .png [[]], making the Custom Splattershot Jr. an ideal support weapon.

Sheldon's Introduction
I took my inspiration for this weapon from a strange liquid that was stuck to my grandpappy's blueprints! Its main weapon is just like the Splattershot Jr., but this one lets you weaken your foes with File:S Weapon Disruptor .png [[]]s! It also comes with an File:S Weapon Echolocator .png [[]], so rally your team behind you and charge into the fray!(NA)[a] |

Trivia
- The starfish sticker on the side of the Custom Splattershot Jr. is a reference to the Japanese Koreisha mark, a symbol representing elderly or experienced drivers. This is in contrast to the Splattershot Jr.'s association with the Wakaba mark, a symbol for beginners.
- The Custom Splattershot Jr. is the only weapon with the "custom" prefix not made by the Custom brand. As such, it is the only one with a unique sticker; the rest all have the Custom logo.
Etymology
Custom Splattershot Jr. is a combination of Splatter (as well as Splat), Shot and the shortened form of Junior at the end. It also has "Custom" as a prefix to differentiate it from the Splattershot Jr. Despite its name, it isn't part of the Custom brand.
Its japanese name, もみじシューター Momiji Shūtā, means "Maple Shooter". Its name is also a reference to the Koreisha mark (which was originally called "momiji mark"), a symbol for elderly car drivers in Japan. This is in contrast to the Splattershot Jr.'s reference to the Wakaba mark, which is a mark for beginners.
