The .52 Gal Deco is a standard .52 Gal with a little extra flair added by pro designers!

A bedazzled .52 Galshooter. Your opponents may laugh at you...until you run them down with Seekers and the almighty Inkstrike.
A rhinestone-encrusted .52 Gal. Your opponents will have little time to admire it as you run them down with Seekers and assail them with the Inkstrike.
Same as the .52 Gal, but the loadout grants you more mobility with Seekers and greater offensive capability with Inkstrike. This loadout is great for Splat Zones-- use Inkstrike from a distance to contest Splat Zones. Use the Special Charge Up ability in place of Run Speed Up, as Seekers already give the .52 Gal Deco plenty of room to navigate a Stage quickly.

▲ When equipped, the Main Power Up gear ability will now also lessen shot spread variance when firing while on the ground, in addition to the benefits it previously provided.
The .52 Gal Deco is a standard .52 Gal with a little extra flair added by pro designers! This set comes with Curling Bombs to quickly close in on opponents or smoke them out with a well-placed wall bounce! And for those opponents that try to keep their distance, make 'em pay with the Sting Ray! I'd recommend this for savage players born without a self-preservation instinct!

Etymology
.52 Gal Deco is short for .52 Gallon with the suffix Deco, short for either Decorated or Decoration. Deco may also refer to Art Deco. "Gal" is also a play on Cal, the short form of Caliber, a term commonly used when describing the diameter of bullets for firearms. The suffix Deco is also used to differentiate it from the .52 Gal. This trait is shared among the other alternate sets of the Deco brand.
.52ガロンデコ .52 garon deko has the same origin as the English name, but without Gallon shortened to Gal. Like the English name, Deco is also used to differentiate it from the .52 Gal.
