    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?

      ​@@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.

      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).

    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

    @neru8104 Před rokem +916

    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

    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.

    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.

  • @Meep_kun
    @Meep_kun Před rokem +51

    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

      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

    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.

    @pyromaniac000000 Před 8 měsíci +1

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    (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).

    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

    ignoring the fact that it only works depending on water to ink ratios, it's not like it's an all-or-nothing deal. if they wave their fingers around in a pool, for example, it's not like they'd splat entirely. they'd just lose their fingers, no? what's the water gonna do, travel up their arm and into their body like ferrofluid up a magnet?

    This made me think of an interesting mechanic for an ink based character
    The ink they're made out of is water soluble, meaning they're able to dissolve in water.
    Water elements can make them get "thinner", giving them higher movement and attack speed, as well as transparency, but lowers their attack damage, defense, and max health
    If they get too thin, they die, and when they respawn, they're back to the default stats and thickness

  • @ace_drar

    I always figured it was their gear thar caused them to splat. Some of the weapoms certainly look heavy enough or awkward to swim with.

  • @snackbasket1214
    @snackbasket1214 Před 9 měsíci

    I imagine some osmotic system where if more water touched one body part the solutes in the surrounding area will gravitate towards it.
    It happens in human bodies too. if there is more water in one spot the body directs solutes to that, and vice versa where too many solutes attracts more water.

  • @averagefailboatenjoyer9940

    the ink in the inklings body basically diffuses into the water when they fall into a pool or the ocean or similar (and as they are nothing but ink and cartilage for the most part, this is not good). a small amount of water wouldnt be awful but it shouldnt really be advised to stick their hands in and keep them there, rather dry it off quickly. prolonged exposure or exposure to a large quantity of water would kill them fairly fast.

  • @Pine0wlple
    @Pine0wlple Před 9 měsíci

    Iirc, the only reason Inkling and Octlings splat in water in gameplay, is because they’re ink weapons and tank are hooked up via a tube connected to their ink sack.
    This allows them to supply ink to their weapons. And when they enter water when hooked up to their weapons and ink tank, water gets into this system and floods their ink sack organ. Basically drowning them.
    Outside of wargames, they enter water like pools, showers and baths fine.
