From Inkipedia, the Splatoon wiki

Regarding the amiibo article:

My goal is to seperate the Splatoon amiibo themselves and their function in the Splatoon games into different sections.

Those concept sections I think could be used for the amiibo article (minus my personal notes):

  • Splatoon series amiibo (concept 1)
  • In Splatoon (concept 2)
  • In Splatoon 2 (concept 3)

Splatoon series amiibo (concept 1)

  • Under construction
  • Insert compatibility chart for the Splatoon games?

amiibo Description
Wave 1
The Inkling Girl amiibo was released on May 29, 2015 alongside Splatoon. The original Inkling Girl amiibo is a light-skinned Inkling with orange tentacles and orange eyes. She wears the Fake Contacts, White Tee, and Pink Trainers and carries the Splattershot. She appears to be based on the Inkling most commonly used to advertise the game, such as on the front cover and for commercials, along with the default girl Inkling.
The Inkling Boy amiibo was released on May 29, 2015 along with Splatoon. The original Inkling Boy amiibo is a light-skinned Inkling with dark blue tentacles and blue eyes. He wears the Fake Contacts, Zink Layered LS, and Purple Hi-Horses and carries the Splattershot. He appears to be based on the Inkling most commonly used to advertise the game, such as on the front cover and for commercials, along with the default boy Inkling.
The Inkling Squid amiibo was released on May 29, 2015 alongside Splatoon. The original Inkling Squid amiibo is a green Inkling in squid form, and appears to be based on the color of the squid icon used for the game and official social media account for the US.[1] It is available exclusively for purchase in a pack of three with the Inkling Girl amiibo and the Inkling Boy amiibo in North America, and exclusively in a bundle with the main game in Europe.
Wave 2
In July 8, 2016 a recolored version of the Inkling Girl amiibo was released in North America as a part of the second wave of amiibo in the Splatoon series.

Unlike the other standard Splatoon amiibo, it, the Octoling Boy, and the Octoling Octopus have the same colored ink. More information about this Amiibo is still unknown.

The Octoling Girl is slightly tan with orange eyes and with two pink tentacles parted and two shorter ones curled up. She wears her Agent 8 outfit from the Octo Expansion along with the unique backpack-like ink tank and she poses with an E-liter 4K. Her knelt down stance is the same one used in promo images with the Octoling Boy although instead of looking straight at the screen, she is looking to the side.

The Octoling Octopus is the Octolings' Octopus form jumping up with a splash of pink ink with its main tentacles crossed and having ring-like spots on the end. A notable difference with the squid amiibo are that its eyes are separated and look to the side instead of looking up.


In Splatoon (concept 2)

  • Either have the list say "amiibo with this functionality" or "compatible amiibo".
  • Add screenshot of the Splatfest Plaza mode and don't use a generic Splatfest photo.

Gameplay

Scanning in an amiibo

The only amiibo that can be used in this game are those from the Splatoon series, where all currently released figures are compatible. The amiibo can be scanned in an amiibo case situated in Inkopolis Plaza, and used to unlock twenty different challenges with five unlockable boss challenges in Octo Valley and new exclusive gear to wear into battle. The amiibo case is located at the southeastern corner of Inkopolis and it appears as the packaging amiibo traditionally come in. When scanning an amiibo (if the amiibo is registered) a flurry of paint circles the inside as the corresponding amiibo forms inside of it. The character introduces themselves and lays down guidelines for their challenges.

The Inkling Girl, Boy and Squid amiibo feature twenty challenges if the single-player mode, Octo Valley, has been completed. The first challenge gives the player six hundred cash as a reward, with the reward increasing by one hundred more cash for each next challenge (i.e. one mission reward is 1000 cash, while the next mission reward is 1100 cash). Each challenge can be completed again, though for only a reward of 100 cash. When three challenges in the same row are completed, the fourth challenge for that set is unlocked, being the boss for its corresponding area in Octo Valley. As opposed to a monetary reward, the boss challenges provide three pieces of gear for the first three bosses, a minigame for the fourth, and a weapon blueprint for the final boss.

The Squid Sisters amiibo allow the user to view concerts in the plaza, similar to a Splatfest. The different versions of the Inkling Girl, Boy and Squid amiibo share the same behavior, whith the challenge tree also being shared between the different versions.

Inkling Girl

Dude! Lemme tell you I am SO glad you called me! I'm pickin' up a fresh vibe from you. Tell me...are you a fan of charger weapons?

Squid Sisters

Both the Callie and Marie amiibo can be used to unlock exclusive in-game Squid Sisters concerts, including two exclusive solo songs; one for each sister. Using either of the Squid Sisters causes the Plaza to take on its appearance during a Splatfest, themed after the game's last topic, namely the Callie vs. Marie Splatfest. The player will be colored after and wearing a Splatfest Tee for whichever Squid Sister was used. During the concert, no buildings can be entered, nor can Judd be talked to.

The Squid Sisters can perform the following songs, each with their own dance routine:

Gameplay

Taking photos with an amiibo

Like its predecessor, only amiibo from the Splatoon series are compatible in Splatoon 2, where they can be scanned in into an amiibo case situated in Inkopolis Square. Some of the new features they offer are being able to save full equipment sets and control settings, with each amiibo being able to store one at a time. These can be loaded to the player's character in the lobby or Equip menu. They can also be used as in-game friends where the player can take pictures with them, while having the option to dress the amiibo up in its saved gear set for the Inkling and Octoling amiibo. The places for these photo ops are located around Inkopolis Square, which accounts for all current amiibo, as well as all multiplayer stages implemented in version 2.0.0, which only goes for the Inkling and Octoling amiibo. Opon scanning them in for the first time, the player is granted some headgear of the amiibo's corresponding set as a reward and further rewards can be obtained by battling or saving the obtained amiibo gear to the figure.

All the amiibo, except the Callie and Marie amiibo, can be used from the start of the game. They become available to use after the player has cleared the Octo Canyon campaign. If they're scanned in before reaching the mentioned requirement both amiibo will display a message in the form of a letter from the representing character, stating that they are too busy to show up.

Rewards

  • Intro text?

All of the rewards follow a pattern of giving out gear from a specific set starting from the headgear, then clothes and shoes, and having the fourth reward being a song or something related to Squid Beatz 2

Trivia

  • In Maria Kart 8 Deluxe the Inkling Girl and Inkling Boy characters' appearances are based on their amiibo counterparts from Splatoon, including the recolors.
  • In-game, the recolored Inkling Boy from Splatoon appears to have a different eye color, being green instead of orange, and has a slightly lighter skin tone when scanned into Splatoon 2 compared to its appearnce in Splatoon and the amiibo itself.
