Cohocks are a type of Lesser Salmonid that appear in Salmon Run in Splatoon 2 and Splatoon 3.

Description

Cohocks are broadly similar to Chums, but deal slightly more damage to players with their frying pans. Cohocks move slower than most Salmonids but can take far more damage before being splatted. Cohocks are significantly larger than Chums and also larger than some Boss Salmonids. During the event Cohock Charge, they are the only Lesser Salmonid to spawn.

Quotes

The following text is quoted from the Salmonid Field Guide.

Basic Information
  • They tend to appear in groups rather than alone.
  • Defeating them will earn you Power Eggs.
Attack Behavior
  • They use their sense of smell to locate and close in on targets who have entered their territory.
  • Once they close in on a target, they perform close-range attacks using frying pans or other cookware.
Elimination
  • Can be neutralized relatively easily with a direct hit of ink.
Supporting Information
  • They inhabit a restricted ocean zone, and any unauthorized contact with them is expressly forbidden by law.
  • The larger Cohock moves slowly but packs a real punch with direct, strong attacks.
  • On their own, they don't pose a significant threat, but ignore them and you may quickly find yourself surrounded.

Trivia

  • Cohocks, along with other Lesser Salmonids, are able to jump to unlimited heights when they are chasing a player in an unreachable location.
    • When jumping, Lesser Salmonids flail their arms and tail fin around like a real salmon does when leaping out of the water.
  • Cohocks will perform a "laughing" animation when splatting the player. It plays during the splat message.
    • It is possible for other players to see this if the Cohock is on their screen.

Etymology

The Cohock's name could be a combination of the name of a real type of salmon, the Coho salmon, and the mohawk hairstyle that it sports.
