The Inkling Outfit/Wig being orange for female Mii Gunners and blue for male Mii Gunners is a reference to the two most prominent Inklings in promotional art (including ''Splatoon''{{'}}s [[inkipedia:File:Boxart.jpg|cover]]), an orange female Inkling and a blue male Inkling. These two designs are also the basis of the Inkling Boy and Inkling Girl {{s|inkipedia|amiibo}}. The pose used for the Inkling trophy in ''SSB4'' also matches the Inkling Girl amiibo.
