So is Marina definitely an Octoling? Aren't Octolings bad/evil? Is this a Theon Greyjoy situation or something?

Marina is indeed an Octoling, but one of the Sunken Scrolls says the Octoling culture under DJ Octavio is basically North Korea. The big showdown/concert at the end of the single-player story in the first Splatoon gave a bunch of them a glimpse of life outside the Octoling dogma.

One of the early sunken scrolls in Splatoon 2 reveals that loads of Octolings thought the final boss battle of Splatoon 1 was just a badass concert featuring DJ Octavio and the Squid Sisters.

I never realised the gloves had the same IKA logo as the shirt, just assumed it was a regular old houndstooth pattern, but I guess that makes a lot more sense.

You can do this in stores, too. Splatoon 2's clothes look really good and have a lot of careful detail!

I haven't seen anything like that in the Sunken Scrolls myself. Plus the Octolings are very visibly different with their irises and multi-suckered "hair" tentacles. Hairticles?

Well, not so much per day but per breeding season. You should be glad Grizzco even gives out bonuses.

Isn't there something about there being a guranteed pink capsule at 1600 grizzco points? Pink capsules can contain a few thousand G or a wardrobe item from a previous month.

Every 200 points over 1200 results in either a pink capsule or a current wardrobe item.

Poochy ain't Stupid.
I might be.
Past the second super bonus, every 200p alternates between the monthly gear and the pink gatchapon, which (probably) contains a random selection of gear from previous months, but right now it's just the polo.

You can trade in the repeat equipment for chunks, or if there are no subs on the clothing, 4000 gold. You can get 200p every sucessful run if you play Salmon Run too much a lot like me.

Yes, it's a 10% chance on each capsule for the best reward, 40% for the basic reward matching the capsule color, and 50% just 4000G. The superbonus always gives the 10% reward.

In terms of chunks earned, the gold rewards are most efficient, followed by the chunks capsules and then the clothing ones.

"Superbonus" simply refers to a specific type of bonus that is available during that particular run. You can check what the superbonus type is (drink ticket / meal ticket / ability chunks / gold) from the bonus menu. All other bonuses just have a random chance of being any other type of bonus, usually in lower quantities but sometimes large (i.e. 32k G).

It's on sale nearly every week at Best Buy, but the lowest I've seen it is $29.99. Kinda brilliant, really -- the game is old as poo poo but hasn't dropped in price, but it's always on sale, so it gets more attention.
