Splattershot Jr. returns as the Splatoon 2 starting weapon

Hello Splattershot Jr. my old friend…if you were wondering what tomorrow’s starting equip will be, then wonder no more. The Splattershot Jr. returns as the starting weapon for Splatoon 2.

The Splattershot. Jr retains the Splat Bomb as it’s Sub Weapon, however in Splatoon 2, it has a change to its Special Weapon – which is now Ink Armour. Once activated, Ink Armour applies to all team members and will negate damage from attacks. You can still use your Weapons and Subs while Ink Armour is active.

This here is the Wakaba Shooter (Splattershot Jr.)
Tomorrow at High Colour Square, new landing Squid Kids will be equipped with this weapon to start.
It can store a lot of ink, so it’s perfectly suited for new-comers to Turf War.
It’s sub-weapon is the Splat Bomb, and it’s Special Weapon is Ink Armour.
