Trivia
- Multiple elements of the weapons of invited amiibo are the player's ink color, such as a roller's column or a brush's tip.
- Using an idol's amiibo to take photos with them in their hub of origin (Shiver, Frye, or Big Man in Splatsville, Callie or Marie in Inkopolis Plaza, and Pearl or Marina in Inkopolis Square) will cause them and their partner(s) to disappear from inside the news studio.
- The machine which takes the photos in most locations is the Shel-drone. It is unclear what device (if any) takes photos in the Order Sector.
