Splatoon Is Asking Pokemon Fans What The Best Starter Type Is In The Next Splatfest
Splatoon 3’s next Splatfest will be a Pokemon crossover special. Splatoon x Pokemon will begin on November 11 at 4 PM PT, giving players the chance to choose between three Pokemon starter colors representing the three starter types: green for Grass, red for Fire, and blue for Water.
"Grass-type. Fire-type. Water-type. This debate has perplexed our great philosophers for ages. Let’s settle it," writes the official Nintendo Twitter account. "Which type will you choose?"

The art that Nintendo included with the tweet implies that the decision will be related to the upcoming Pokemon Violet and Scarlet games, with the silhouettes of Quaxley, Fuecoco, and Sprigatito outlined in ink. None of them seem particularly Splatoon themed though. If we were really looking for a Splatoon Pokemon, look no further than Inkay. It’s basically a squid, although it uses psychic powers to defend itself rather than ink.
