Abilities

The Cream Basics come with Special Saver as the primary ability when purchased from a shop or ordered from Murch. When purchased from SplatNet 3, they come with any other primary ability normally available to Shoes. As a 0-star item, the Cream Basics come with one additional slot for secondary abilities. The star level may be increased with Super Sea Snails for 1 (first), 1 (second), 5 (third), 10 (fourth), or 20 (fifth) Super Sea Snails per star, or by purchasing additional copies of them from Crush Station for 10,000 (first), 30,000 (second), 50,000 (third), 100,000 (fourth), or 200,000 (fifth) Cash per star.

Trivia

  • Based on their SplatNet 2 price, it can be deduced that the normal price of the Cream Basics would be Cash 300 if they were purchasable from Shella Fresh rather than being a part of the starting gear.
    • This is consistent with their price in Splatoon 3, the first game in which they can be bought from shops.
  • As of Version 2.0.0 of Splatoon 2, the Cream Basics and the rest of the starting gear are the only pieces of gear that cannot have their original abilities restored if purchased through SplatNet 2, unless if ordered from another player through Murch.
