Inkling for Smash! Let's Make Like Squid and Migrate!

[DonkaFjord]

I like your smash attacks and would probably suggest something similar. I'm not a fan of the down b turning into a squid. I think the squid should be used for a dash attack and maybe a spot dodge/roll. If they really want something unique, inkling could sink into the ground whenever the down direction is held on the controller instead of ducking.

That up B is interesting. It's true to the game but I'm not sure how I feel about it. Sounds like DDD's up B on the way up. I'm guessing it would have a weak hit? Actually, the more I think about it, the more I realize Inkling should recover with some form of the super jump. It's almost too obvious.

Maybe your suggested B move would work better as a down B like others suggested for grenades.

Last thing. They should have the stay fresh pose as a taunt.

Looking forward to the rest as well as what others have to say/propose for move sets

Ooh a unique crouch would be really cool. I try and make sure the neutral B is something that Kirby can copy to some extent so that is why I went with grenades.
I was arguing between having Down B be ink mines or have down B lay out up to 3 squid beakons and then the inklings up B will super jump to them either in order of how they were placed or in what direction you were pressing. It could give you some massive stage control but it would be kind of worthless on small flat stages.

Also perfect taunt.
Their idle animations are already made too- the normal in game idle wiggle mixed with the way they check out their guns in the shop.

I feel like the inklings should have some focus on stage changing control like their origin game and I am still thinking about a cool gimmick for that.

Will edit later- any suggestions? I am going out for a bit before trying and finish this.

Gimmick: Ink sprayed stays on the stage for several seconds. Neutral B and Down B work together to use and refill ink, but you can choose to wait a bit for ink grenades to be usable again. No other move uses the ink meter. Ink has a very low chance of causing tripping.

A: Ink brush slap. Hit A multiple times to continue slapping with the ink brush.

Ftilt: Splattershot. Can be held for continuous shots.
Utilt:
Dtilt: Suction Bomb.

Dash Attack: Slap the roller down and roll forward.

Usmash: Blaster shot. Charging will make a larger end explosion.
Fsmash: Charger shot. Charging will make it shoot out further.
Dsmash: Slap the Roller down. Charging it will make the roller have a longer splash range.

Nair:
Uair:
Fair:
Bair:
Dair:

Grab:

Pummel: Throw a quick succession of splat bombs straight down on the victim. (Every play against an E-liter? this is how they deal with close targets.)

Fthrow:
Bthrow:
Uthrow:
Dthrow:


B: Throws an ink grenade in an arc when tapped, but if you hold it you will roll the ink grenade along the ground which will cause it to detonate faster. You must wait a small amount after using the move before you can use it again so the ink can 'recharge.' A light on top of the canister on their back will flash when they can throw ink grenades again, just like in Splatoon.

Side B:

Up B: First time it is used (on the ground) it will place down a squid beakon (It has about double the HP of Villager's tree) and second time it is used the inkling will super jump to squid beakon. If used in the air prior to placing a squid beakon you will jump straight up and wont have any vertical motion until free fall (Like super jumping to the spawn point while you are standing in the spawn point in Splatoon.) Offers a lot of super armor but has some lag upon landing similar to how in Splatoon you are invincible during the super jump but it is easy to tell where you will land and easy to kill someone upon them landing.

Down B: Turn into squid form and hide in any ink on stage and move. This move will also refill ink faster.

Final smash: Inkstrike or Inkzooka?

Taunt 1: The 'Booyah' rally cry and fist bump.
Taunt 2: The 'C'mon' cry and animation.
Taunt 3: Win animation for the shooter class. Toss your gun up and grab it in air.

I completely forgot to make the Inklings have a button or button combo to turn into a squid besides up B, huuuhhhhh. I can edit these into the site when you finish!

Now that I'm back to my Wii U I've been playing Splatoon quite a bit. Add me to the support. I'd really like to see the Inkling make it in as a full fledged fighter.

Thanks! I tried

One of my online taunts in smash 4 is splatatatatatoon. So whenever I get a nice Kill with DDD I use his down taunt. Basically, DDD spins around patting his stomach which matches the splatatatoon text. Has yet to get old for me

Easter Egg:

- You're playing 8-Player Smash in two teams of four players each.
- There's at least one Inkling in each team.
- Timed battle. Match didn't go to Sudden Death.
- Playing in a Splatoon-themed stage.

If all these conditions are fulfilled, the winning screen plays like this: Both teams appear in full facing each other while in their idle stances. Judd the Cat appears in between the two teams, and a bar starts filling from each side in the bottom of the screen, representing the two team colors. After a couple of seconds of deliberation, Judd pulls a flag of the winning team's color, declaring the winning team. Every character gets a unique winning and losing animation for the sake of this Easter Egg, triggered when the winning team is revealed.

That's a lot of data of a DLC fighter, I like it!

I want one of the win animations for the Inklings to be them getting a Zapfish.

You heard that right, a song from Splatoon will be featured in the new Diagasso Band Bros (Jam with the Band in the West) game. Though I wonder which songs from the game they will go with (the main theme or the squid sister's song).

I really wish that I have Splatoon by now. :/

Yes, that's the one.

I really wish I could, but I've been on budget lately since I've started this new job. So I'm probably going to build my savings for the rest of the summer.

It would be a miracle if anyone could give it to me as a birthday gift this Friday, parents or girlfriend.

I'm surprised this didn't get enough attention, eh.

Do you work for Nitnendo?! /s

No but my father works for NOA's localization team. He told me the meaning of the squid sister lyrics. The song is about the economy of Inkopolis on a lukewarm summer afternoon.

That moment when there were Splatoon outfits in Style Savvy 3 around the same week Splatoon would be internationally released.

I forgot how heavily promoted Splatoon was/is. They also had ads at EVO, obviously the mii outfits and now that song in that new game

Do the amiibo give you those outfits? I didn't know they were used in other games

 

[Cheezey Bites]

I just double checked and it looks like I was wrong, it looks like it was a spot-pass... well, I still like the Amiibo, but that kinda defeats part of my reasoning for buying them... of course they still need to announce Style Savvy 3, and they still may make it Amiibo based in the western version.

Guys, there's a Pokémon easter egg in Splatoon!
During the stage news thing with Callie and Marie, they got to Moray Towers and Marie said something along the lines of "chargers are the very best, like no gun ever was."

They mention super effective too right?

 

[SegaNintendoUbisoft]

Nope, just that line.

 

[DonkaFjord]

Nope, just that line.

I believe Callie says "Rollers are super effective here!" and then Marie parodies the opening song in response.

Inkay has a very good chance in Splatoon then?

Oh I didn't notice that, I was just spamming A to get pass the news, and I saw what Marie said. That just made it even more awesome.

 

[POKEMANSPIKA]

And Malamar, Tentacool, and Tentacruel.

 

[DonkaFjord]

And Malamar, Tentacool, and Tentacruel.

Vs. Octillery?

 

[POKEMANSPIKA]

Vs. Octillery?

I guess, since the rest of them are squids while Octillery is an octopus. Inklings vs Octolings.

 

[Strider_Bond00J]

Then Remoraid is Moe.
"NERD ALERT!"
-Which, by logic means Corsola is Annie.

I always thought tentacool and tentacruel are more like jellyfish like frillish and jellicent.

Well the jellies can be like the foreign jellies in the plaza.
