My Pokemon Blue Team was working out well, but one loss seems them scatter to the wind. I play another game but decide it's time to change weapons, so back out myself to do that.
I opt for the Dual Squelcher, to enjoy its range without needing to be quite so ...

Our little team is doing well, beating all the Team Red inklings pitted against us. I'm sticking with the Splash-o-Matic so that I can stick with this team.
What I'm noticing more about Blackbelly Skatepark in this Splatfest than I think I have before is how much the railings get in ...

Splatfest Pokemon! I'm starting with the Splash-o-Matic, just to get myself back in the frame-of-mind for Turf War. I get a cheeky first splat deep in opposition territory, then get splatted for being a bit cocky.
The route works well the first time, so why not keep doing it? I keep ...

More Rollers! After the last game, I am a bit more nervous about facing them. But what could go wrong? I'm not as cocky this time, surely.
First ink to me! A Splat Bomb, but still. Second ink to me! And third! Also Splat Bombs. I swear I can hit with ...

Do I really need almost a minute to get my aim in at the start of battles? At least I can hit the ground, which is what's needed for Turf War.
Once I've hit the ground enough times, it seems I am warmed up, and inklings become fair game.
And I gave ...

Another flirtation with the Splash-o-Matic, and I switch back to the Splatterscope. It's weird but nice how comfortable I am with the charger these days. Comfortable, but not exactly competent. All those missed shots early on, and at close range! And against Barbarians for a change! This is a battle ...

I dabble a bit with the Dual Squelcher. It involves shooting my squidmates more than I should, neatly activating the Echolocator when I know I'm about to be splatted, and wondering if I could ever get that good with the Inkbrush.
Some nifty manoeuvring gets me a splat on the charger, ...

After the battle, reviewing the video, I realise that we have a 0-0 inkling. He disappears after 10 seconds and doesn't come back. He was the Tentatek Splattershot, which left us with 3 chargers, an E-litre 3K Scope, a Heroshot Replica, and my Splatterscope.

Given our limitations, I think we put ...

That inkling with the Splash Wall is ruthless. I don't think I agree with his methods, however effective they are, but I also think the other side could have got out of their base more easily than they made it look.
I leave him to it for the most part, opting ...

Another Splatfest! Let's blast through the battles. To ease myself in to the Ninja vs Barbarian Splatfest, I take my old favourite in to battle, the Splash-o-Matic.
I adopt my old techniques too. Half sneaking around the side routes, half running headlong in to trouble. I do try to be a ...
