It there any kind of guide that says whether Squiddicus is an octopus or a squid? It looks more like an octopus, but its name kind of indicates that it could be a squid. Fawfulfury65

First off, its name is obviously a combination of the two words, secondly, no, there is no guide. But the number of tentacles (squid have 12, octopus have 8) gives away its species. Marioguy1 (talk)
I don't think it's possible to count how many tentacles it has because most of them are hidden in the water. I was just hoping there was a guide that called him one of the species at some point. Fawfulfury65

Well if there is, I have never heard of it. And I'm pretty sure there are other deciding factors on their species. Marioguy1 (talk)

I have DKCR, and I don't see him anywhere in the booklet. Nintendo makes many portmanteaus of animals, so it could be said he's a octopus and squid. He may most likely be a squid because half of his name refers to a squid. Tadaa!2.gifSupremoTadaaa!.gif
Actually, I don't think octopus is combined into his name. If it was a combination of "squid" and "octopus," it would probably be something like "Squiddipus." Don't octopuses have a rounder head than squids, though? If that's the case, it's probably an octopus. Fawfulfury65
Yeah I agree. It would probably be an octopus. Tadaa!2.gifSupremoTadaaa!.gif
