Which Team Should You Pick for Pokemon x Splatoon 3 Splatfest?

We recommend going with Team Water for the Pokemon x Splatoon 3 Splatfest, for a few reasons:

Fire-type seems to be the most popular choice on Twitter, with many players opting for their favorite type. In second place is Team Water.

I’m on Team Fire. [I love] Sprigatito but Cindderace was my best friend and #1 fighter. – @Eebbeebreal

In the last Splatfest, Team Fun was the team that started strong, with many players and winning the Half-Time. However, Team Gear was in second during the halfway point and came out on top in the final results.

However, if you’re not competitive, you could always choose a team based on your favorite Pokemon Scarlet and Violet starter.
