Spoilers: Absolutely nothing.
Inklings and Octolings only dissolve when they fall into a huge body of water, where there is more water than the ink in their body.
For example, if they fall into the ocean, the ratio of water vs ink is like 99.99 to 0.001, so they dissolve. But if they just dip a finger in water, its harmless.
How else would they drink soda and juice, which is just water with additives and fruit?
So that means rain is deadly
@@thehatter9400 technically yes and no, rain is just little bits of water falling together and quickly, so i think that it would be safe to assume that if they move away and hide quickly it won't do anything.
Also consider their clothes,they may not be water resistant (i think they would be more water resistant than our average clothes considering water is a danger for them) but it's likely that they can hold off rain water long enough for the ink/octolings to find a safer place.
@@thehatter9400 Eventually, yeah. It's definitely something to be careful of for Inklings and Octolings
@@HSpungey well yeah i did say a drop of rain would kill them.
But something like a rainstorm with 8 inches of rain? Yeah that would kill them.
I wonder how they would react to a human standing in such rain, the 'lings and humsns look so similar it might triggers their uncanny valley response
@@thehatter9400 i guess that a literal storm would cause a lot of inkfish death,but they'll still probably have better "water repeling" clothes and stuff.
For the second part,intresting thought,but i doubt most ink/octolings would get the chance to see any images of humans in rain (only images,since humans have been extinct for years in the sploon universe),but i assume their reaction would start with confused fear and then just confusion (kinda going off of the reactions to the statue on octo expansion).
considering that they swim a bit before splattering when falling into water.
i can imagine they have SOME resistance.
but what i actually think would happen is kinda hard to describe.
the part that got wet would be semi dissolved and be in a slimey state of the ink.
maybe if too much of their ink gets dissolved they run out of energy, and well you know.. explode
im pretty sure its based on water pressure, so, based on that, i think the inkling would be okay. theyve also been seen drinking tea, which, has a lotta water
Im pettry sure they dont really swim
@@yanistiti0884 he means right before they die from the water, they tread for a little bit
@@macmadness5932 im pettry sure they drown
They actually have an organ in their body that reacts to pressure change from water causing it to expand to the point the inkling/octoling explodes; though its more around their waist/belly thats why they can dip limbs and submerge parts of themselves and be fine.
I think the best example would be the pack that C.Q. Cumber has strapped to your back when you fail the mission/objective. Now just imagine it actually inside the inkling/octoling
Cool theory that can be true
Get it checked by a developer and you will know
@@thebestbakers9993 it's true, I actually spent time looking for Lula's comment just cause it's in splatling lore if u look deep enough
I imagine the way it works is that inkling guts are highly hypertonic with porous skin, meaning water would flow in very quickly and basically flush out any ink and guts in the part of the body dipped in water. This is why we see ink splashing out of an inkling when they fall into water. This could also be the case with how splatting works: the enemy ink flows into the inkling and flushes out their ink, then basically filling them and popping their skin with the ink, creating the ink explosion when an inkling gets splatted.
Very disturbing, but likely the truth.
I think inklings work in a way which allows their bodies to merge and absorb small amounts of water, like a glass of it. When they're introduced to a large body of water, their body cannot absorb it which results in their body trying to spread it's molecules across the entire surface area in the efforts of absorbing it, which their bodies can't handle, causing them to be splatted.
Realistic Explanation here!
This…actually sounds reasonably accurate!
Or, they just can't swim...
@@wunder4402 Bro stop
@@Bunz685 he’s right
In Salmon Run, you can actually dip your feet in water, so they should be able to survive, if they dip their hands in water.
In salmon run they wear the rubber suits and its not like they have different type of skin on different parts of their body, I think depending on how much water it is?
Or in this cup theory, i think their hand would sizzle or melt or turn into some type of ink like another comment said
Now when you say it, your probally right! You have a good point! Like you said, in small amounts it should do no harm. Maybe even melt too like when they drown!
there's also mahi mahi resort, at least in splatoon 1.
You can actually go abouve knee deep before actually dying iirc
@@invaderlava you can also wear flipflops on map that consists of mostly water, and you can still live
I think it’s similar to an oil in an emulsion, if there’s barely any water they don’t get broken apart, but if enough water coats them they start getting split up and dissolving
In the splatoon 1 story mode it states that they can't swim because of their large heads and skinny bodies, making it impossible to float. There is nothing special about water, except that inklings don't float.
Inkfish skin is so thin that the pressure from falling into or being submerged into water that's more than knee deep will result in their skin literally imploding from the pressure. The skin is so thin in order to allow them to transform between swim form and human form. (as confirmed by a dev interview awhile back)
So no, nothing will happen if one dips their fingers or even hand in a glass of water. They may feel a bit more pressure than, say, we would, but it wouldnt dissolve them or do anything of that sorts
This should be the top comment
Nerd
@@bottle3124 attention seeker moment (not saying anything)
One yes
I take that to mean that if inkfish were to need to clean their body, they would either take a shower or need to sponge bath.
If they were splatted or fell into water, where would they respawn or would they respawn? Like outside of matches
SHHHHHHH don't spoil a future video :)
@@TrinityRBG Red from TrinityRBG? Posting a video in the future?
@Mr. Markstar impossible.
Salmon run gives us the answer to that
they do not respawn their little squid soul would stay there waiting to get rescued.
hope they have a lifesaver!
death
I have been avoiding this short for a long time because I was expecting an extremely graphic depiction of an inkling having their finger dissolved down to the bone. I am pleasantly un-mortified.
...they don't have bones though
I always imagined that inklings splat when they touch water during turf battles due to their equipment, not because of their biology.
OH MY GOD ME TOO Im so glad im not the only one who thinks this! It just makes so much sense
This is confirmed by Judd, they simply can’t swim, touching water is okay, which is how they’re clean
Since they hold themselves together with ink, I assumed they dissolve when the amount of water (or other liquid) is enough to "disturb" the ink concentration. So a few fingers isn't an issue, but falling into a pool of water is.
Yeah thats why in salmon Run you dont die imedially to the Water because inklings can resist to the contact of a exact amount
Cotton candy effect: they hand dissolves and slowly spreads but doesn’t dissolve the whole inkling
My head cannon is just that they disolve when they are in ink producing mode to use ink weapons.
I feel like their ink based bodies can tolerate small amounts of water, but too much disrupts their biology too significantly. I think of it more like hot sauce. The body can tolerate a fair bit before you regret ever taking that first bite.
From what I read online, inklings can survive being in water they just can’t swim
my canon is that the water has to be covering majority of their body for them to dissolve. Like, a light rain wouldn't hurt, but falling in a pool would kill them.
Agree
They can only dissolve in large amounts of SALT water. So this explains why there are swimsuits in splatoon, as Marie and Callie recall an embarrassing role in an advertisement.
Inklings are not hurt by water itself, they are just unable to swim in it and get overhydrated when they enter in contact with water this is all due to SALT.
inklings are adapted to a high osmotic pressure environiment created by their own ink which is rich in Sodium, this keeps their squishy structure in a constant balance of water and electrolites, but when they enter a low osmotic pressure environiment like regular or salt water their cells get bloated with water molecules and they take cellular damage.
a little water wouldn't hurt them (like we see in game) but prolonged exposure to it and specially swimming in it would cause more serious damage although not as instant as we see in game.
this is the exact same reason why we can't put salt water fish in freshwater environiments.
TLDR inklings absorb and release salt constantly from both their ink and their environiment, if you put them in water it would not kill them immediately but they wouldn't be able to swim in it, just like how a human has an easier time floating in salty water compared to freshwater
water is toxic, according to the lore.
@@kip258 a mistranslation of lore if I remember correctly
@@kip258my guy just write one of the best comments related to water in Splatoon and Inklings interaction (The best in my opinion) and you just threw the word "lore" When we offiacially know that if an inkling fell on water he dissolves and respawn at the closest/last respawn point he spawns the last time, the same goes if he gets splatted, no more no less.
@@aquilessd2536 One of the newscasters (I think marie? Maybe Marina) literally days "But water is toxic to us, so..."
@@kip258It was Marina, I remember. Pearl goes “Remember to stay hydrated!” And Marina replies with something like “That sounds like it would be good advice, until you remember that water is toxic to us!”
I always imagined that they die in water because they are made of ink and enough water causes them to dilute. I'd imagine that being partiality in water causes instability in that area of their humanoid form.
One of my friends theorized actually it's not based on how much water covers their body. Rather it's based on the water density.
Inklings can drink water, and they shower too according to Marie. What my friend theorizes is if the water is fresh water, for say drinking water, showers, and sinks, they can survive. However, if the water has too much density, especially containing salt, they would dissolve. Pools and fountains are known for using chlorine to disinfect, which happens to contain sodium chloride.
Im pretty sure inkling can interact with water, but is the amount of water overwelms them (think jumping/falling completely in water) , they would dissolve/get splatted.
It would make sense since they would prolly need to drink water or need to survive rain.
According to the Japanese script, they’re able to at least drink plenty of water fine. I think only if they’re fully submerged will they dissolve, but just their hand should be fine
THEY DON’T DISSOLVE
THEY SPLAT DUE TO WATER PRESSURE.
@@thebestbakers9993 i dont even think pressure is canon theyve been inconsistent and vague. in the past they said it was things like salt water is dangerous and fresh water like their pools are fine (hence why callie likes swimming or they can own swimsuits) theyve said before it was pressure, and another time they said it was polution in the oceans (same as the salt one but different cause)
Inklings don’t know how to swim. This was apparently confirmed by Judd
There was a scene in the manga where the whole team was just chilling submerged in shallow water. They were completely submerged but it didnt go too far above their heads and they sunk to the bottom.
What? No no no no
But that is not possible
If they were in SHALLOW water then it would not go above a head
They would not sink since there would be nowhere to sink to
How can people look over this
Fun fact: an inkling will spontaneously die upon contact with water due to there biology not knowing anything other than the ink they were born in
It’s a pressure differential thing. If the pressure exerted onto their body is greater than X, their body cannot handle it and they splat. Water has a density high enough to cause enough pressure for them to splat. But the thing is, you need enough pressure exerted across the ENTIRE body to cause a splat. In this case, while it would likely be uncomfortable, they still have enough internal pressure elsewhere in their body that this would never be able to splat them. You need a total sum of pressure across the body to create enough pressure to overpower their internal pressure, and a simple hand in water simply cannot achieve that.
They gotta be covered above their knees to dissolve iirc
I thought it was waist deep, but either way the glass does nothing
Game mechanics go brrrr
It's really just if fully submerged. In the first art book I remember it saying something about how they can't swim, so I assume that's the inkling/octoling water limit, swimming. That's why there's still pools because they can wade and float, just not swim
Edit: also, it could just be a splat battle thing where it's a rule that you can't go out od bounds, and those bounds are the water, and in salmon run the gear is too heavy so they sink. If I remember correctly there isn't water in the story modes that could also be a good theory
@@TopEye64 I think the reason for them to die while out of bounds might be due to the limiter, which was mentioned briefly by marina in octo expansion during the agent 3 battle.
@@_bbb444 Oh yeah, I forgot about that tbh
They also survive rain without any problems, water is more a problem in fights, e.g. if you fall from the ship arena onto the ground you also die
Bro talks like an angel
That's kind of adorable ngl
They would be fine as in grizzco salmon runs inklings can dip their feet in water before eventually drowning
It’s questions like this that gave me the mental image of Inklings showering by using highly diluted water, and utilizing how it messes with them, to basically slough off the dirty ‘skin’ like a snake
Since they are composed of ink
It’s the active thrashing around in the water that makes them splat
It’s like when you put honey into a drink it doesn’t dissolve into the water you have to stir it up first
They are composed mostly of ink
They would need cartilage in the absence of bone so they can stand up or be in human form
Also they have some normal skin and most likely blood to
if more then 30% of the inkling's body is in water they will drown
it's like people with devil fruits unless there 50% under pretty much nothing
The way I see it, the water in stages have some sort of damaging property to prevent the inklings from “cheating” (ie hiding in water, swimming to the enemy spawn) but outside of the games they can interact with it normally
not at all, its cannon that inklings dissolve in water. although, they definitely did that so they could have an “out of bounds”
salmon run disproves this theory, since salmonid territory is just straight up the ocean and there's no way any anti-cheat additives can be poured into the sea. it's a cool take tho
No issue.
The cannon lore is Inklings and octolings desolve specifically in ocean water. Nintendo stated their skin is too thin to deal with the ocean water.
(Now, the theory behind that is its too toxic, why they evolved to be on land)
Is nobody gonna talk about how inklings go underwater in Mario Kart and are fine?
It's all about pressure as well I think.
If there's too much pressure,here goes our cute inkling
The Inklings and Octolings would be fine. Inklings can put at least 20% high in Salmon Run, possibly distributing the said water through their body to even things out.
Edit: I am just now realizing that the Salmon Run water is unfiltered. So, Inklings and Octolings *should* be fine with specially filtered water!
I'm pretty sure they only dissolve if their entire body is completely submerged, or all of the ink on their body can't withstand the amount of water.
I have a theory that Inklings and Octolings can touch water under normal circumstances, but the water on Turf War stages are mixed with a certain chemical to prevent them from going out of bounds.
Thats true and in the story mode, the water is probably polluted too. (Especially alterna)
There’s got to be a inkling to water ratio.
For example I don’t think little amounts of water can dissolve an inkling.
The inkling probably has to be almost fully submerged in water.
And normal rain would be no problem as I think that the ink storm only splats because it’s enemy ink
But that’s just a theory a Game theory
Is this a bad time to ask if inklings and octolings can.. pee? I mean if its water then.. would it burn them? or is it ink?
I hate the mental image this gave me, thank you
Do octos/squids pee? If not, inklings cant pee
they pee ink
they arent mammals, idiot. they dont have... you know
it's confirmed in the manga that they pee ink.
now for other bodily fluids...
The real body of an Inkling/Octoling is just a Squid/Octopuss. They controll ink to create the bodies that we see. If they fall in water then diffusion happens and all that ink is mixed with water and their ink body dissolves. If they put hand in big body of water than it would happen but it would be slower and probably would just dissolve their hand. If it's only glass of water then the water would turn into ink or maybe it would be absorbed by ink body.
Kind of weird how their main weakness is something that covers the majority of the planet, and basically every living thing needs to survive.
So I believe that inklings only get splatted when they fall into saltwater. Freshwater is fine because otherwise they wouldn’t be able to drink the drinks that are available to them in the lobby.
HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN THAT SOME WATER COULD BE SALT WATER
NOT ALL OF IT IS FRESH water
So consider that
@@thebestbakers9993you made no sense lmao
@@thebestbakers9993...saltwater isn't in drinks. we drink freshwater ☠️
You pretty much right.
The cannon lore is Inklings and octolings desolve specifically in ocean water. Nintendo stated their skin is too thin to deal with the ocean water.
(Now, the theory behind that is its too toxic, why they evolved to be on land)
You're forgetting that lake stage, which is freshwater
I assume since they have a good portion of ink making up their body then either they would be fine as they might need a large portion of water (one they can’t wipe off, so being submerged to some level) because their slat animation for water shows it takes a moment to be splatted. We can also assume rain doesn’t splat them. I think if the water distribution overwhelms the inklings ink distribution they would splat.
Theres a comic panel out there of inklings being completely submerged in water...it feels more and more like lost media each time I remember that it's out there
(Insane splatoon theory)
Inklings and octolings can turn into gas.
Turf war is a sport and if they go outside the playing area the rules state they turn to gas and travel to spawn, same when they get inked by the enemy team.
Also during the story modes you assess levels by going into kettles and coming out as steam to travel to the next level.
Also this would mean inklings and octolings can ba a solid(kid form), liquid(squid swimming though ink) and a gas (respawning/ quick travelling / ect).
Could the level of salinity of the waterbe a reason as to why they splat in large bodies of water? Or maybe the density of the liquid, since they swim perfectly fine in their ink, which is very different from ink as we know it, both natural and the one we find in pens
I think it's they can take up to a certain amount of water before they die
It’s probably the fact that they can’t swim and it wastes a lot of their energy
I will never find the sense of them dying in water like they're literally squids, they're made to be in water and yet they fucking die just touching it
One finger: fine
Two fingers: -SQUIRT- *SPLAT*

@@EcoFreindlyWoodVeneer0 I laughed
@@germanguy2 okay?
splatoon water controversy: exists
*typ has entered the chat*
I'd like to think it's polluted ocean water or water with some additive that dissolves them since they drink water and other water-based liquids; distilled water probably doesn't do anything even if they're submerged
Inklings have a fascinating reaction to water. Despite being based on aquatic creatures, they dissolve when they come into contact with it in the game. This is a surprising and unique feature that adds a layer of complexity to gameplay. It's a strategic element that players must keep in mind, as it affects movement and positioning on the map
i feel like they only get splatted by drowning because they dont immediately splat, they just try to keep their head above water to breathe because they canonically lost the ability to live in water
I think it’s same logic as sonic, it’s only the whole body
Bruh we are not sponges
My guess for why they dissolve in water is because they instinctively go to the squid form when they are drowning, but because they are basically ink, they dissolve.
They have drinks so under this logic taking a sip would kill them from the inside in agonizing pain
Something tells me this is a video game character and the designers didn't think too hard about the logistics.
Ah, the classic Theseus's cephalopod child paradox, how much can you water an inkling before it splats.
Thin skin allows for the Squidkid shapeshift process. In a larger body of water, the thin skin cracks under pressure, leaving the internals vulnerable to dissipation.
I can imagine small bodies of water may affect the skin, but it heals so fast that nothing major occurs. It might feel funky or slimy for a hot second.
YOU ARE THE MOST EDUCATED ON THE SUBJECT AND YOU ARE CORRECT ABOUT EVERYTHING.
@@thebestbakers9993 Thank you. There is no need to praise me. I simply study a lot. And there’s plenty more with this same level of knowledge.
If an Inkling were to dip their entire hand into water, their hand will dissolve leaving only the skeletal remains of what was once their hand.
I love how this video is just questions with no answers
They can only splat for safety reasons like drowning because they can handle water but if drowning they can’t
This is absolutely the most out of the ordinary question I’ve ever ever heard of my entire life
If y'all listened to Judd, he said you guys can't swim,
I believe that the cephalopods simply don't know how to swim, and them dissolving has the same logic as the fact that they poof when they fall off the stage or disconnect: it's something that they just do.
Inklings can’t swim, their oil-based ink form can’t do it. But if they don’t need to swim, they’re fine
I guess maybe assume it’s fine as long as they don’t drown. Like the situation with the devil fruits from one peice. That they just can’t swim in water and they drown immediately because they’re make of mostly if not all ink
my rule of thumb is "if a person who couldnt swim at all would drown in it, an inkling would drown in it"
Theyre made of ink, they would begin to disolve, the only reason the explode in the game is for gameplay purposes and because its kinda funny.
I'm pretty sure them falling into water and dissolving is purely a game mechanic. They might not like it, but touching water is actually perfectly fine.
It has been seen in the Splatoon games that the inklings can survive having up to half their body in water, but any more than that and they do collapse. But one, two fingers, or the whole hand is ok.
I’m pretty sure it’s just that inklings can’t swim so then exploding in the water is then drowning. They specified specifically that they can’t swim somewhere.
It’s like devil fruit users they need there whole body’s submerged to actually have any affect
Honestly I personally think water dissolves that part that has been touched by water, then after a few seconds, the inkling/octoling’s system just creates a whole new body part like it was never touched
i feel like when their hair touches the water its game over
I headcanon that the reason why they dissolve in water during turf battles is because they are using all their access ink so they can't resist the water anymore.
Inkling can walk slightly into water and have half their bodies submerged. Even when they fall into water they flail around for awhile before their body fully dissolves
Anwser:the inkling will be fine
I believe it's been confirmed that inklings are able to filter smal portions of water through osmosis, and it only becomes a problem when they fall into a large body of water, or whenever there is more water than ink in their bodies.
They’re like sponges.
A little water is barely anything, but if they sit in the ocean up to their necks for a while, then they absorb too much and explode
The only capacity in which water is dangerous to Inklings or Octolings is that they can't swim. You exploding when you're submerged is a gameplay-ism because they didn't want fully animated, in-depth cephalopod drownings on screen.
Sounds like a matter of water pressure caving in their bodies. Since they're so fragile normally it makes sense that water could crush them when in high volumes.
It is said during the first adventure mode in splatoon 1 by the guy who guides you that "you can't swim"
In salmon run, you can safely survive water up to roughly waist deep, so a single hand would be fine.
Its very inconsistent. Cephalings canonically own pools and regularly go swimming when its hot, but in gameplay water is insanely lethal.
Don’t invite anyone that can do water magic to an Inkling’s birthday party it’d go badly
I like to think they don't actually splat when touching water, they just can't swim, and end up splatting cause they drowned.
Basically if Devil Fruit Users questioned and did the same hypothesis
If you ever watch the animation when Inklings fall in water, in squid form they just poof. But in human form they struggle a bit and flail around.
In the OG Splatoon people were just said to "not know how to swim" rather than water being fatal in some of the dialog. Which suggests that their humanoid form is probably actually as water resistant as most humans. And the fact that they drop so fast in a Turf War if they fall in water is them intentionally respawning to get back to the action.
My head canon is that the only reason they dissolve is because they live in a dystipopia where the water is so polluted
It’s probably like devil fruits in one piece or something. Water is a weakness but if it’s like dipping your fingers in a glass of water or a bathtub they’re mostly fine
The fact that antropomorfic MARINE creatures somehow dissolve in water is already weird enough for me to question anything else.
