Grass vs. Fire vs. Water is the second Splatfest event for Splatoon 3. It was announced on social networks on 7 October 2022 and in-game on 4 November 2022 at 08:00 UTC.[1] This is the second Splatfest in the Splatoon series to be themed around the Pokémon franchise after Pokémon Red vs. Pokémon Blue/Green.
Details
This Splatfest is a celebration of the then-upcoming release of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, which will launch roughly a week after the Splatfest on 18 November 2022. The Tricolor Turf War stage will be Sturgeon Shipyard.
In the Pokémon series, the player has a choice between three Starter Pokémon and choose one to accompany them as they start their adventure. Players choose between a Grass-type, Fire-type, and Water-type Pokémon, with those of different types having various strengths and weaknesses against each other.
Merchandise
T-Shirts and keychains based on the Splatfest teams were made available from the My Nintendo Store in Japan, United States, Canada, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, South Korea, and Hong Kong.[2][3] In North America, the Splatfest Tees were only sold in the Nintendo New York store.[4] Most regions outside of Japan sold the Tees as pre-orders to be delivered at the start of 2023.

Trivia
- The weapons shown in the official art correlate to the Pokémon types in the Splatfest.
- The Bamboozler 14 Mk I is made of bamboo, which is a type of grass.
- The Range Blaster has a fire pattern on it.
- The H-3 Nozzlenose is based on a hose, which sprays water.
- The Splatfest Tee logos resemble Japanese names for the three types: クサ kusa (Grass), ほのお honō (Fire), and ミズ mizu (Water). The logos are also in the same style of SquidForce's starting tees: Splatoon 2 and Splatoon designs of the Basic Tee as well as the Tri-Shred Tee in Splatoon 3, respectively.
- The Pokémon featured in the official art and on the backs of the Splatfest Tees are Sprigatito, Fuecoco, and Quaxly, the starter Pokémon of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. Additionally, in the background of the official art, the silhouettes of the final evolutionary stages of all starter Pokémon from main series Pokémon games prior to Pokémon Scarlet and Violet can be seen. These silhouettes are also seen in the backgrounds of the icons seen in-game for each team, with each of the Pokémon appearing in the icons of their type, arranged in the order of their introduction clockwise from the top-left.
- On the Team Grass background, these Pokémon are Venusaur, Meganium, Sceptile, Torterra, Serperior, Chesnaught, Decidueye, and Rillaboom.
- On the Team Fire background, these Pokémon are Charizard, Typhlosion, Blaziken, Infernape, Emboar, Delphox, Incineroar, and Cinderace.
- On the Team Water background, these Pokémon are Blastoise, Feraligatr, Swampert, Empoleon, Samurott, Greninja, Primarina, and Inteleon.
- The ink splats on each Splatfest Tee are the color of the type that is strong against the Grass, Fire, and Water types. The Grass tee has red splats, the Fire tee has blue splats, and the Water tee has green splats.
