However, there are times where the two (and the other s4 members) seem to get along. Arguing aside, deep down, the two hold a special place in each other's hearts whether they like it or not.

Canon[]

Bamboo was recruited by Rider into Team Yellow-Green as a temporary unit. They are first seen in the plaza when Bamboo walks behind Rider. In the battle against Team Blue, Bamboo along with Stealth and Blazer stay behind Rider and ink the ground for their specials. After Rider gets splatted, Bamboo shows worry and starts to stammer, unsure what to do after he was shot. At the end, Rider looks back at the rest of Yellow-Green and realizes his error in throwing together a last-minute team and takes Goggles words to heart.
Later in the Square King Cup, Bamboo and Stealth show incredulity to Rider after he hesitates in attacking Team School Cardigan. Their main interactions stem from Yellow-Green's battle against Team Emperor. Rider reminds the team to remember the plan, and throughout the battle as they're slowly losing, Rider recalls how he reformed the team; Bamboo showed shock as Rider asked her to join the team again, and she responded, "Sure... You're a strong player, Rider." as the panels cut back to her smiling in the present time. In the flashbacks they're seen coordinating with the rest of Yellow-Green
After they lose the match, Bamboo has a tear in her eye but is quickly comforted after Rider says they need to try their hardest. In the background, Yellow-Green is seen talking together.

This section is in need of major improvement. Please help improve this article by editing it.
Goggles and Bobble are the "funny man" duo of their team, portrayed in an extremely comedic light. The two are known to laugh and smile throughout all situations, though Goggles is at a lesser degree and is occasionally faltered. The two are scolded by Headphones and Specs for their dangerously hopeful and carefree attitude, though they never listen. Goggles and Bobble focus on having fun in their battles, and their conjoined optimism allows Team Blue's victories even in the dimmest of situations. Goggles often cheers on Bobble and vice versa. Bobble is one of the only characters who finds Goggles' antics genuinely funny. However, Bobble often calls Goggles stupid, like when he managed to fall in a manhole or got himself attacked by Rider.
Fanon[]
Goggles and Bobble's relationship is mainly portrayed sibling-like in the fanbase. The community of romantic BobbleGoggles shippers is rather slim, though it's still a relatively popular pairing despite the hate it often gets. The ship mainly rivals other Team Blue ships such as HeadBobble, and often GoRai. Familial or romantic, BobbleGoggles is shipped beside HeadSpecs.

Bobble and Specs' relationship is hardly displayed in the series, however, the two have known each other since childhood and are exceptionally kind to one another. They frequently meet up and train together. Specs has been shown to be exasperated and frightened by Bobble's antics, mainly coupled with Goggles, often widening his eyes and panicking at her words like when she used the example, "If I get hit, I'll go to hell!" Their main interactions stem from battles and occasional banter; they share many comedic moments, mainly when Bobble stabbed her fingers into Specs' glasses to test if they have lenses.
Additionally, their most notable conversation is during the Square King Ranked Battle Cup: they meet up at the cafe together on a rainy day, and Specs shows worry after Bobble is drenched in water, handing her a napkin and asking her if she's alright. Specs is also impressed when Bobble recreates Crusty Sean with paper, and she then asks what Specs is doing at the cafe, prompting his shock as he explains he was creating a strategy for the semifinals. Bobble then says, "I see. Thinking Specs!, leading to Specs sweating but intrigued by her comment. Specs laments that he's injured and unable to participate, apologizing to Bobble and contemplating, before Bobble suggests that she use the Octobrush for Specs, asking him to teach her how to use it. Specs is shocked but happily agrees, then it stops raining. Off-screen, Specs teaches Bobble how to wield the Octobrush before the match.

Deep Cut[]
Deep Cut is the friend ship between Shiver, Frye and Big Man.
Canon[]
In cannon they are a close a group of childhood friends who are connected via their clans strong ties. Shiver and Frye are the more chaotic ones, with shiver technically being the leader, and big man is the more level headed one but still joins in.
Fanon[]
In fanon their is a large speculation that Shiver and Frye are dating (called Shivrye) due to their dialog between one another often being flirty in a way. There is other minor factors adding to this like Shiver giving a dirty look to Pearl when Pearl was talking with Frye, possibly being jealous. Or Shiver saying "It's not which is 'strongest' or 'coolest'. Which makes the best PARTNER" (referring to the Grass vs Fire vs Water Pokémon splatfest theme) and Frye replying to Shiver saying "Why are you looking at me like that?" Which some have seen as Shiver trying to subtly convey interest in Frye.
There is also a smaller but notable group of people who ship Shiver, Frye and Big man (called polycut). Which is mostly rooted in the already stated speculation between Shiver and Frye dating and Big Man always being by their side trying to keep them out of trouble.

Their relationship is rather complex due to their differences in personalities and ideology of music, even though Quinn saw the potential in Ichiya's talent.

Following the incident, Squid Squad was disbanded and the two stopped showing up at the studio completely. When interviewed about the possibility of a Squid Squad reunion, Quinn immediately left the interview without further comment after calling it an "interesting question".

Prince and Red Sole hardly interact, however, Red Sole's odd commentary on Prince has led many to ship the two, as well as the fact how their personalities directly contrast.

WarabIkkan[]
WarabIkkan is the slash ship between Mashup "Warabi" and Quinn "Ikkan" from the Splatoon fandom.
Canon[]
Diss‑Pair is a musical duo made up of Ikkan, the former bassist of Squid Squad, and Warabi, an Octoling DJ.
Following Squid Squad’s breakup, Ikkan met Warabi on an overseas tour. Despite—or because of—their differences, they clicked and formed Diss‑Pair, a metal‑EDM duo. Their partnership is grounded in musical contrast and creative tension. According to Quinn, while Warabi's demands seem all over the place, he's actually quite clever and intelligent
Official lore describes them as “a mismatch made in heaven”—creative opposites who intentionally avoid each other in the studio to preserve their distinct edges and unique sound. Ikkan craves the friction missing from his Squid Squad days, and Warabi’s frenetic electronic beats provide just that: the tension fuels their music rather than any personal harmony. Their two released tracks, “Seasick” and “Kinetosis”, highlight this dichotomy. Ikkan delivers deep, husky metal‑style vocals and basslines, while Warabi layers in synths, EDM beats, and electronic distortion. Tracks like “Seasick” showcase a back‑and‑forth interplay—almost like competing voices—yet the fusion creates something thrillingly new.
The name Diss‑Pair is a clever play—part “dissonant pair,” part “diss” (as in conflict), part “despair.” Their Japanese name, Gasshokukin, literally refers to incompatible food pairings—symbolizing two elements that clash yet combine to produce something compelling. Their creative process thrives on contrast, yielding the edgy, discordant energy heard in their songs.
Fanon[]
Fans often translates their “arguing while working separately” into a flirty, grudging partnership. The trope of “they don’t talk in person, only online”—incongruent with their simmering artistic clash—becomes a juicy ground for imagined late-night chats, back‑and‑forth banter, and emotional breakthroughs. Many fans describe the duo’s fiery interaction as reminiscent of a tumultuous relationship—passion and friction intertwined in perfect harmony.
The ship rivals IchIkkan, the ship between Ikkan and his former bandmate from Squid Squad, Ichiya.

- The two was featured in 2019's Valentine's Day artwork, walking together outside of the restaurant Ink Theory's sitting in.
- Although he stated that Warabi's demands are all over the place, Ikkan also admitted that his bandmate's actually quite clever and intelligent.
