Nintendo has revealed why the upcoming Splatoon 3 Splatfest will see players fight and start next month.
More specifically, it will kick off November 11 at 4 p.m. PT / 7 p.m. ET. This is the perfect time because it is a three-way battle between Grass-type Pokémon, Fire-type Pokémon, and Water-type Pokémon, the types of the three starters we will choose in Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet on November 18th. Check out the announcement tweet below for yourself:
Type of grass. Type of fire. Type of water. This debate has perplexed our great philosophers for centuries. Let’s fix it.
The Splatoon x Pokemon special #Splatfest collaboration starts 11/11 at 4:00 PM PT!

The event will start on November 11 and will run until 4:00 PM PT / 7:00 PM PT. Hopefully we can all show off our favorite of the three types in our favorite gear and weapons. It’s also worth noting that Nintendo calls this Splatfast a “special collaboration …”, so there may be even more Pokémon integration than you’d expect. Only time will tell.
