The '''Pearl Drone''' is a form [[Pearl]] can change to and from within the [[Memverse]] in {{SO}}. | |||
==Appearance== | |||
The Pearl Drone is a small, pale pink flying robot with a round shape and a white crown with pink spikes on top. Her eyes are rendered as a black LCD screen in the shape of an [[Inkling]] eye mask, with two white cross shapes representing her pupils. Above them are two pale yellow sliding buttons, functioning as eyebrows. The Pearl Drone also has a small hole below her right eye, representing Pearl's beauty mark, and two appendages on the sides that each have a pink gradient and a sucker-like white circle below, resembling tentacles. On the bottom are blades attached to a black opening. | |||

The Pearl Drone is a form Pearl can change to and from within the Memverse in Side Order.
Appearance
The Pearl Drone is a small, pale pink flying robot with a round shape and a white crown with pink spikes on top. Her eyes are rendered as a black LCD screen in the shape of an Inkling eye mask, with two white cross shapes representing her pupils. Above them are two pale yellow sliding buttons, functioning as eyebrows. The Pearl Drone also has a small hole below her right eye, representing Pearl's beauty mark, and two appendages on the sides that each have a pink gradient and a sucker-like white circle below, resembling tentacles. On the bottom are blades attached to a black opening.
Origin
The Drone form has been created by Marina while finalizing the concept of the Memverse. Pearl was supposed to take on the role of the guide for the users who have to repeat tasks, represented as climbing a tower, in order to regain their memories taken from Kamabo Corporation.
Abilities
Similar to Smallfry in Return of the Mammalians, Pearl acts as a companion for Agent 8. Unlike Smallfry, she acts independently, by attacking enemies alongside the player. She can also point out enemies with a pink laser, which does no damage. She can be upgraded by placing color chips inside a Palette, enhancing her abilities or adding sub or special weapons to her arsenal, such as Splat Bombs or individual Killer Wail 5.1 speakers, all of which have to be charged before use. The needed points for charge can be decreased with multiple color chips. She is also able to carry the player like a glider. This happens when they are in the air in Octoling form for some time, or by pressing and holding after jumping. If 3 Disc Pieces are collected, she will perform the Step-Off song, creating a pink haze around the player's screen, which knocks back nearby Jelletons, stuns bosses, and disables Portals or Gushers.
The abilities of the Pearl drone can be upgraded with color chips and the drone chip selection can expanded with Marina's Hacks, which have to be unlocked in exchange for Prlz.
