Splattershot (スプラシューター, Splashooter) is Inkling's neutral special move.
Overview
Upon use, Inkling begins firing ink projectiles out of their Splattershot for a medium distance, with the shots arcing downward. Inkling cannot move while firing, but the shots can be angled. Enemies that are hit by the ink take damage and are covered by it. Enemies soaked in ink will take additional damage.
The ink projectiles from the Splattershot will flinch enemies that are close, but will only push enemies that are further back, similarly to Squirtle's Water Gun and Mario's F.L.U.D.D.
Origin
The Splattershot is one of the main weapons the player can choose from in both Splatoon and Splatoon 2. It's a mid-range weapon with decent all around stats. It is a very iconic weapon for the series, as it is commonly seen in in promotional materials and as part of the Inkling Girl and Boy amiibo.
