If I were to take a wild guess when you turn into a fuzz ball you sort of enter a cocoon state and after a unknown amount of time the fuzz ball disappears and you are left with something like these enemy octoling
enemy octolings don't work since their hair can't fit right with hats and stuff , this has been a problem since splatoon 1 and that's why actual octolings have thinner hair
The octarian style evolves of of our fashion today! Splat2 came out in 2017 and this game came out in around 2021-2022! Today we wear leg warmers, yoga shorts and platformed shoes vs back in 2017 where that was much less common
Its kinda weird because essentially, These Octolings are now... Mammals... so they are humans... But their tentacles are still... tentacles, just still fuzzy
I pray to the great zapfish that one day we get to wear the fuzzy octoling armor in multiplayer. Because it is a crime that they are the drippiest enemy octolings to date and yet they barely appear in hero mode.
