in fact the entrance animation for the inkling is the inkling spawing in the ink puddle like when they spawn on the spawn pad in splatoon. there is a ink puddle located from the start from where you spawn. When there is too much ink on the ground, and you spread new ink, the oldest ink will chronologically disapear.

the puddle of ink will always be on the stage unless you lose all of your stocks and there is more than one player alive. Now you may be wondering.how do I fill up the tank ? by swimming in your puddle of ink. when that happens you can't use any moves that contain ink, and those moves that are melee based, will be weaker, and have less knockback. it will take some time before you run out of ink, but eventually you will. as you use your moves the ink tank on the back of the inkling and the ink tank meter beside the inkling´s procent will go down. the ink tank is the main obstacle for the inkling. Ink is essentiall for the inkling to use, since it fills up their ink tank. You know what this means don't you? SQUID BAGGING! It is a cool detail from splatoon, so I think it would be funny if you could squid bag with the right execution. You can also cancel out of and into squid mode itself though. This means all tilts, jab, neutral air, and directional neutral air. Something to note, is that you can cancel out of and into squid form INSTANTLY if you are using/triggering the splattershot. Most excting however, is the abillity to swim in your ink. By crouching and crawling, you will be ableto move around as a squid. So how do you turn into a squid? Simple, you crouch. Now it is time to explain two of the most important mechanics with the Inklings: Squid mode, and Ink. THIS WOULD WORK SO WELL WITH THE INKLINGS! However to balance it out, the ink fired from the splattershot should only deal 1% and minimal knockback, considering how much mobillity they would have. With this, it will allow the Inklings to shoot, jump and shoot, aim down right before they hit the ground, cover the ground in ink, turn into squid mode, and keep the momentum going. Now if you press a direction before a, you will just do a arial in that direction, so the key is to keep holding a, or press a, then move the analog. This will allow Inklings to really use their mobillity to home in on their opponents. if you hold a while jumping, you will keep shooting of course, but, if you then decide you wanna aim down, you simply slide your analog down while holding a. HOWEVER, up tilt and down tilt are also the splattershot, and in fact, if you change direction WHILE shooting, instead of instantly changing direction, you will quickly move from one angle, to another, ALLOWING INKLINGS TO AIM! 'But the Inklings can also aim in the air in splatoon' I hear you say.WELL. With inklings, you can do just like mega man, just with the splattershot instead of pellets. Mega Man has a mechanic, were that like in his games, you can walk and shoot, and also jump, because jab, side tilt, and neutral air all are the same move. Like you can see above, this section is for A BUNCH of moves. How in the hell would you make this work in smash? Well, lemme tell ya. You see, Splatoon is a 3rd person shooter, where you can AIM. To get started, this is how I would make the Inklings feel JUST LIKE they do in Splatoon.

Jab / Tilt's / Neutral Air + Directional Neutral Air : today i am going to show you my ideas for their moveset. i have always wanted these guys in the game the second i played splatoon. Inkling moveset idea : by DreeGon inklings.oh inklings.

ATTENTION : This is a OLD AS FUCK post, so there are a lot of grammar mistakes :v Also, I am going to keep on updating it everywhere, if I get new ideas, so stay tuned! :)
