Complete one of the following: | |||
*Play [[VS. match]]es, with Inkling being the 5th character to be unlocked. | |||
*Clear {{SSBU|Classic Mode}} with {{SSBU|Samus}} or any character in her unlock tree, being the first character unlocked. | |||
*Have Inkling join the player's party in [[World of Light]]. | |||
With the exception of the third method, Inkling must then be defeated on [[Moray Towers]]. | |||
==Attributes== | |||
Inkling is a character that excels greatly in many areas, but is typically defined by her quick, slippery movements and fast attack speed. As a result, her attributes are overall consistent with combo-heavy middleweights, with a focus on a fast approach "footsies" playstyle: the Inkling has very fast overall mobility due to her very high initial dash (16th highest) and [[run]]ning speeds (22nd highest), alongside high [[air speed]] (12-16th fastest, tied with {{SSBU|Sonic}}, {{SSBU|Mario}}, {{SSBU|Little Mac}} and {{SSBU|Donkey Kong}}). However, the rest of her traits are mostly average, with middling [[air acceleration]], [[fall speed]], [[walk]] speed, and [[weight]]. As a result, Inkling has can easily traverse large distances very quickly, but can have issues changing directions in midair; additionally, her weight and fall speed do not give her much of an advantage with escaping combos. | Inkling is a character that excels greatly in many areas, but is typically defined by her quick, slippery movements and fast attack speed.

*Inkling will transform into squid form while dashing and dodging. This allows Inkling to avoid some projectiles and attacks while dashing due to a lower [[hurtbox]], but only for a slight few frames, making it unviable as an actual tactic. | *Inkling will transform into squid form while dashing and dodging.

* The Ink Tank can be gradually replenished at any time by holding the special button while [[shield]]ing, or via the [[Splattershot]] only when the Ink Tank is completely empty. This lowers the Inkling's hitbox, but leaves her without any defensive options apart from canceling the charge (which is punishable). It is also restored to full capacity when the Inkling is KO'd. | * The Ink Tank can be gradually replenished at any time by holding the special button while [[shield]]ing, or via the [[Splattershot]] only when the Ink Tank is completely empty.

*The Inkling's Ink Tank is shown in the HUD and while charging ink. The red line on the tank is the minimum ink needed to throw a [[Splat Bomb]]. Once the Inkling runs out of ink, the Ink Tank will flash with a red "X" both in the HUD and on the Inkling's model. | *The Inkling's Ink Tank is shown in the HUD and while charging ink.
