Marching Andante
Can you help us get it done?
Marching Andantes are Jelleton enemies in Splatoon 3. They are the most basic type of Jelleton, using melee attacks and inking ground.
Description
Marching Andantes are mechanical fish mostly encased in black ink. They are internally white, except their red eyes which pop out of their sockets. They have a bony crest on their heads, and many other skeletal features.
Strategy
- While being common enemies, Marching Andantes can pose a threat, especially in swarms.
- They do not have much health and can be defeated easily.
- If left alone, Marching Andantes can become much faster and strong enough to break the player's armor.

These can take a little more of a beating. They'll paint over your ink if you let them. So don't. |

They're about as tough as the practice targets you see around. Does that help give you an idea of what it takes to beat one? |

Getting mobbed by these punks is bad news! Treat 'em like target practice, Eight! |
| Conclusion Just like slow, moving targets! | |
