Dapple Dualies
The Dapple Dualies are a main weapon in Splatoon 2 and Splatoon 3.
Compared to the Splat Dualies, this weapon lets the player perform quicker dodge rolls and inflict more damage, but it has a shorter range and a shorter roll distance to offset its effectiveness in close quarters.
The Dapple Dualies deal enough damage to splat opponents in three hits, unlike the Splat Dualies and Dualie Squelchers which need to land four hits to splat an enemy. In the post-roll state, the weapon's firing rate is 20% faster than normal, and its accuracy is improved as well.
Appearance
The Dapple Dualies are built on two main parts, both of which are a berry red color and connected to each other via a black handle. The bottom part of each dualie houses a white and light blue toothbrush, while the top part houses the nozzle and a small metal stick. The toothbrush is held in place via a small wire that holds it to the stick.

Sheldon's Introduction
The Dapple Dualies are dualie-type weapons that have been obsessively engineered for optimum mobility! They're now lighter, allowing for faster movement, but they have less range. It's a trade-off. Utilize the increased mobility to set Squid Beakons around the map, and call your teammates to your side! And use the Suction-Bomb Launcher to further expand your team's territory! Recommended for players who want to swiftly splat their opponents and support their team! |

Quotes
“ | And here are the Dapple Dualies - a lighter dualie set known for super-fast Dodge Rolls. That speed comes at the expense of range, but make no mistake - these dualies still hit hard and are capable of dumping a LOT of ink in a hurry. Sneak up behind an opponent for the best results! | ” | — @SplatoonNA on Twitter[3]

Trivia
- There are toothbrushes on the ends of the guns, likely referencing the fact that toothbrushes are used to make realistic splatter marks known as "dapples" on paintings.
