Official Description[]

In the game Splatoon, the main characters, Inklings, can instantly transform into squids! We’re not sure what marvel of anatomy allows them to perform this majestic feat, but it sure is sweet. In squid form, Inklings can swim in any surface they’ve splattered with ink, even up walls! They can also hide from opponents by submerging in ink and keeping still. How cool is that?

Compatibility[]

The Splatoon series Inkling Squid amiibo figure is supported in games which are compatible with all amiibo. However, only the games listed here have functionality specific to this amiibo. As Inkling Squid is a variant of Inkling, games listed that don't have specific functionality for this character will instead recognise this amiibo as a Inkling amiibo.

Inkling Squid is a light green arrow-head squid. It has gray/blue eyes that have a black outline around them. The mouth area and tentacles of the squid grade into a dark green gradient; the tentacles have light screen spots around the gradient.

Trivia[]

  • This was the first amiibo figure that is not available to purchase à la carte, as it is only available in the 3-Pack or the Splatoon bundle. However, it has always been available as a standalone in Japan, and Europe received some standalone figures.
