Jelonzo

“	Please to the shopping!	”
— Jelonzo upon entering Jelly Fresh(NA)

Jelonzo is a blue jellyfish who appears in Splatoon and Splatoon 3: Expansion Pass. He runs Jelly Fresh, a clothing store in Inkopolis Plaza. Along with Jelfonzo and Jel La Fleur, he is one of the three known jellyfish able to speak the Inkling language.

Appearance

Jelonzo is a blue jellyfish who has ovalish, conjoined eyes with rhombus-shaped pupils. Jelonzo wears a purple and white mesh cap and a black scarf with big blue dots. He alternates between four different shirts each day: one is white with a blue, purple and pink fuzzy object and an eye in the middle, the second is black with a neon green jellyfish in the center, the third is white with an orange skull and white tentacles coming out of the bottom, and the fourth is orange and grey and emblazoned with several white jellyfish which resemble Goombas from Mario games.

Personality and traits

Jelonzo is the charismatic clerk that runs the clothing shop. With his uncanny sense for the hottest trends, he is viewed as a fashion god of sorts by all the young squids in town. He hails from distant waters and has a strange way of speaking that can make it difficult to understand him, but that may be one of the secrets to his success. In the North American version of Splatoon, he also is known to say "BLUUH" from time to time.

In Splatoon 3: Expansion Pass, Jelonzo speaks in proper Inkling (presumably having become more proficient between games), but still refers to shirts as "body cloths", and still frequently says "BLUUH". A short amount of time before the game, he bought a house along a train line, which he is renovating.

Jelonzo's version of DJ Lee Fish's song Lookin' Fresh is faded out except for the melody, the "center", because his gear goes on the middle part of the body. It also has many bubbly sound effects in the background, showing his bubbly and ecstatic personality as well as referencing his gelatinous species.

Trivia

• Jelonzo's name comes from the word "jelly," as he is a jellyfish.
• Jelonzo's Japanese name is "Echizen" and Jelfonzo's Japanese name is "Bizen"; both are names of historic provinces of Japan.
• When switching to Jelly Fresh from another shop, Jelonzo can be seen with his tentacle stretched towards the rack of shirts on the back wall for an instant. This is possibly a protective gesture, as the shirts are shaken up when switching between shops.
• None of the shirts Jelonzo wears are available to the player as gear.
• Until Wave 1 of the Splatoon 3: Expansion Pass, Jelonzo was the only shopkeeper in Splatoon that did not return in later games in the Splatoon series. Before then, his only form of return or cameo was that of being mentioned by the Squid Sisters in Splatoon 2.
• In a developer interview, it was revealed that Jelfonzo is Jelonzo's child by asexual reproduction.
