| '''[[inkipedia:Inkling|Inklings]]''' are protagonists from the ''[[inkipedia:Splatoon (series)|Splatoon]]'' series who also make some appearances in crossover games. They are a race of humanoids that can turn into squids, the color of which is based on their hair/tentacle color. Inklings live in [[inkipedia:Inkopolis|Inkopolis]], where they participate in [[inkipedia:Turf War|Turf Wars]] in which they attempt to claim as much area as possible by covering it with their ink, along with other [[inkipedia:Ranked Battle|sports]] and activities such as [[inkipedia:Splatfest|Splatfests]] and [[inkipedia:Salmon Run|Salmon Run]]. They also speak in a made-up gibberish language known as the [[inkipedia:Language in the Splatoon series|Inkling language]].

| Inkling Girls and Inkling Boys as fully unlockable playable characters in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. Inklings were first implied to appear in the game through a teaser trailer shown in the March 2018 Nintendo Direct following information about ''Splatoon 2''. The trailer is based on the ''Splatoon'' reveal trailer from E3 2014; it shows both the standard Inkling Girl and standard Inkling Boy from the original ''Splatoon'' fighting each other until the background fades to black, when the ''Super Smash Bros.'' symbol can be seen reflected on the Inkling Girl's eye. Inklings were officially announced during the E3 2018 Nintendo Direct alongside [[Princess Daisy]] and [[Ridley]]. | | The Inkling Girl and Inkling Boy appear as fully unlockable playable characters in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. They use a variety of weapons from the ''Splatoon'' games as part of their moveset, including the [[inkipedia:Splattershot|Splattershot]] as their main weapon, the [[inkipedia:Inkbrush|Inkbrush]] for their forward smash, the [[inkipedia:Blaster|Blaster]] for their up smash, the [[inkipedia:Slosher|Slosher]] for their down smash, the [[inkipedia:Splat Bomb|Splat Bomb]], the [[inkipedia:Splat Roller|Splat Roller]], and the [[inkipedia:Killer Wail|Killer Wail]] for their [[Final Smash]]. When an opponent is covered in ink, they take more damage from attacks. Inklings can also run out of ink, and a gauge showing how much ink is left is displayed next to the Inkling's profile. To refill, the player must press {{button|ns|B}} while [[Shield (Super Smash Bros. series)|shield]]ing. The ink refills at the normal rate even while the Inkling is not standing on their ink, unlike in the original ''Splatoon'' games. The player can also play as a yellow, pink, or purple female Inkling, or a green, cyan, or dark-blue male Inkling, each wearing different accessories. Like in the original games, the ink's color corresponds to that of the Inkling. |

| Inklings use a variety of weapons from the ''Splatoon'' games as part of their moveset, including the [[inkipedia:Splattershot|Splattershot]] as their primary weapon, the [[inkipedia:Inkbrush|Inkbrush]] for their side smash attack, the [[inkipedia:Blaster|Blaster]] for their up smash attack, the [[inkipedia:Slosher|Slosher]] for their down smash attack, the [[inkipedia:Splat Bomb|Splat Bomb]] for their down special move, the [[inkipedia:Splat Roller|Splat Roller]] for their side special move, and the [[inkipedia:Killer Wail|Killer Wail]] for their [[Final Smash]].

|
| In addition to the orange Inkling Girl and blue Inkling Boy used in promotional material for the original ''Splatoon'', the player can select a yellow, pink, or purple Inkling Girl, or a green, cyan, or indigo Inkling Boy, each wearing different accessories and attires. Like in the ''Splatoon'' games, the ink's color corresponds to that of the Inkling. Due to being unable to swim at all in their home games, Inklings receive minor damage while swimming in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''; this trait is shared with [[Sonic|Sonic the Hedgehog]], [[Charizard]] and [[Incineroar]].
| | Additionally, the [[inkipedia:Squid Sisters|Squid Sisters]], consisting of Callie and Marie, collectively make an appearance as an [[Assist Trophy]]. When they are summoned, they appear in the middle of the stage (teleporting if not there already), and perform a live concert. As they are performing, the camera zooms in on them, and the blast lines get smaller and smaller, making it easier for players to be KO'd. Once the song finishes, the duo disappears, and the camera returns to normal. |

| Inklings appear as playable characters in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', marking their first and currently only appearance in the [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart'' series]]. Players can select either male or female Inklings, although they are separate characters with different statistics, much like the male and female [[Villager]]s. After the sixth wave of the ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]]'', the male and female Inklings and Villagers were consolidated into one slot, though their statistics are still different. In addition to the orange Inkling Girl and blue Inkling Boy, the player can also select green or pink Inkling Girls and purple or cyan Inkling Boys; with the exception of the purple Inkling Girl and cyan Inkling Boy, the other Inklings' designs are derived from their ''Splatoon'' [[amiibo]], but with added headgear. The color variations of Inklings cannot be used by CPU drivers. If an Inkling is a CPU, they will usually ride the [[Splat Buggy]] or [[Inkstriker]] with the [[Standard (tire)|Standard]] tires; however, they can sometimes ride the [[Standard Kart]] with Standard tires, or the [[Standard Bike]] with [[Monster (tire)|Monster]] tires. The Inkling Boy is the 150cc staff ghost for {{classic-link|Tour|Tokyo Blur}} and {{classic-link|Tour|Bangkok Rush}}. Inklings are also the 200cc staff ghosts for [[Excitebike Arena]] and [[Dragon Driftway]]; the orange Inkling Girl is the staff ghost for Excitebike Arena, and the purple Inkling Boy is the staff ghost for Dragon Driftway. | | Inklings appear as playable characters in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', marking their first appearance in the [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart'' series]].

The Inkling Girl is the staff ghost for Excitebike Arena and the purple Inkling Boy is the staff ghost for Dragon Driftway. They are equipped with their [[inkipedia:Splattershot|Splattershots]] and can turn into their squid form when performing a [[Trick]] or using the [[Feather]]. They come with their own themed battle course called [[Urchin Underpass]], and have signature ATV bodies, the [[Inkstriker]] and the [[Splat Buggy]]; both vehicles are unique in that they spray colored ink from the exhaust pipes when getting a speed boost, instead of normal flames. Their kart symbol is an Inkling Squid in the color of the character. Both are medium weight characters; the girl is in the same subset as [[Cat Mario|Cat Peach]] and the female [[Villager]], while the boy is in the same subset as [[Tanooki Mario]] and the male Villager. Despite ''Splatoon'' showing Inklings get defeated as soon as they land in water, Inklings are capable of remaining underwater in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''. The Inkling's [[Standard Kart]] and [[Super Glider]] designs have ink splatter on them. |

They come with their own themed battle course called [[Urchin Underpass]], and have signature ATV bodies, the [[Inkstriker]] and the [[Splat Buggy]]. Their [[emblem]] is an Inkling squid in the color of the Inkling on a black background. Their horn sounds are sound effects from the ''Splatoon'' series. Male Inklings have ink splashes on a black background on their Standard Karts and Super Gliders, whereas female Inklings have ink splashes on a white background. Both are middleweight characters; the girl is among the lightest middleweights alongside [[Cat Mario|Cat Peach]], female Villager, and [[Diddy Kong]], whereas the boy is somewhat heavier, being in the same subset as [[Tanooki Mario]] and male Villager.
