DISCLAIMER: This is a fanon wiki, meaning that its contents are created purely from the imaginations of its users. These articles do not depict actual games and should not be treated as if they do.

Octoling is a fighter in Super Smash Bros. Diamond. He is unlockable. He is from the Splatoon series, the second fighter from the series to be playable. He has several attacks similar to Inkling. Some attacks are different, some are the same, and some are slightly different, like the Octo Shot Replica has a slower shooting rate, but puts more ink on the opponent.

Originally being the antagonists of the story mode in Splatoon and Splatoon 2, could be unlocked after purchasing the DLC in Splatoon 2. They did lose the splatfest Squid vs. Octopus, though.
