    The Splatoon North America official account has only named one squid researcher from their branch, Gary. We don't know much about Gary, but what we do know is that they are a known cheater, and at least one researcher considers them to be their rival. Watch your back, Gary.

    On this brand image for Toni Kensa, there is actually something quite interesting about this octoling! Can you tell what it is? Well, uhh, absolutely NONE of their gear is actually in the game right now, strange. Hopefully we see it some time soon!

    Perhaps I'm late to the trend, but I want to know: What is the most useless piece of Splatoon knowledge you know? This could be world lore, game facts, or any extended form of research!

    Have you ever thought about where your friend's holograms come from? Well, you should, because the answer is right above you! Up on the ceiling there are hologram projectors, and you can even see how the light beams down!

    To clarify in case anyone is unsure, it seems that the prophecies from Sunken Scroll 17 in Splatoon 2 are coming to pass, as we can see the seven rings in the distance! BIG RUN HAS BEEN FORTOLD FOR CENTURIES... AND NOW IT IS IMMINENT!!!

    // Splatoon 3 Spoilers, Credits. Splatoon 3 had many elements somewhat unfinished in 1.0.0, though most things were added in a day 1 patch. Interestingly, an early version of the ending credits has a completely different thank you image! (Left old, right new! Credit to @SkyZexy)

    Hello there researchers, let me show you something I found myself while getting a little frustrated at the shell out machine! Look very closely, and you'll find that this banner hides the SPLATOON 2 HERO WEAPONS! Why would they be there at all? More research is needed!

    Before you get excited, no there has not been any Big Run news, BUT I would like to draw your attention to the audio in this video! This seems to be an ω-3 cover of Clickbait by C-Side! Whether this will play through the entirety of Big Run is uncertain, but this is exciting!
    Brace yourselves for Big Run, a once-in-a-while Salmon Run phenomenon in which Salmonids invade Splatsville! #Splatoon3

    The Grizzco weapons that can be found in random Salmon Run shifts appear to be illegally modified versions of existing weapons, how shady... If you look close enough, you can actually tell what weapon they chopped up to create them. Take a look at these diagrams by yours truly!

    Images of the Grizzco Blaster and Brella next to the Sloshing Machine and Splat Brella, showing how they're most similar to their Splatoon 2 variants
    Images of the Grizzco Stringer and Charger next to the Tri-Stringer and Bamboozler, showing that they are as the caption states, the "Same Weapons with Some Additions!"
