Splatoon 3 Announces A Pokémon-Themed Splatfest, Coming In November

Gotta splat ’em all in Splatoon 3 on 11th November! Nintendo has revealed the theme of the next Splatfest, alongside when it all kicks off. And given the time of year it’ll be taking place, the theme couldn’t be more appropriate.

Splatoon 3 is collaborating with Pokémon to celebrate the release of Pokémon Scarlet & Violet in the way it knows best — by throwing a Pokémon-themed Splatfest! Kicking off on 11th November at 4pm PT (times for other regions to be announced), Nintendo is asking one of the most difficult questions ever — which starter type do you choose?

Will you be Team Grass-type, Team Fire-type, or Team Water-type? You’ll get to make your decision and make your voice heard in November’s Spaltfest! An event hasn’t been announced for October yet, but we’d love it if Nintendo doesn’t skip Halloween! Let us be spooky!

The winner of the last Splatfest, which took place in September, was Team Gear under Shiver.

Which team do you think you’ll be choosing for November’s Splatfest? Let us know!
