Tri-Slosher
The Tri-Slosher is a main weapon in Splatoon and Splatoon 2.
It is a slosher-type weapon that is separated into three sections, and is similar in appearance as a Japanese brush washer bucket. As its appearance implies, it can throw in three different directions. It covers a straight line forward and two splotches to the side. The range is short compared to other sloshers.
The weapon consumes 6% of the ink-tank capacity with each slosh, allowing players to slosh 16 times before needing to refill. Each slosh does enough damage to splat opponents in two hits.

Trivia
- The Tri-Slosher draws many parallels to the Splattershot Jr. in Splatoon:
- They are less accurate and have shorter ranges than the standard weapons of their class, the Slosher and the Splattershot, respectively. However, they have wider coverage within their range and improved speed.
- Both of their original setups have the Bubbler as their special weapon, with their alternates, the Tri-Slosher Nouveau and Custom Splattershot Jr., having the Echolocator.
Etymology
Tri-Slosher is derived from the verb to slosh and Tri, a shortening meaning Three.
ヒッセン Hissen means Brush Washer. 筆洗 Hissen are segmented buckets that are used for cleaning paintbrushes.
