Mr. Coco
Mr. Coco is a character in Splatoon 3 who runs the shoe shop in Splatsville, Crush Station. He is a kind-hearted coconut crab with an intimidating appearance that contrasts with his personality.
Appearance
Mr. Coco is a large coconut crab. His body is almost entirely a dark gray-brown, with blue highlights on his joints and extremities. He has two pairs of antennae on his face, the shorter of which resembles a mustache, and what appears to be chest hair protruding from under his shirt. Fittingly for his species, he is quite strong: the force of his pincers is stated to be 90 times his body weight.[1] Overall, his appearance gives the air of extreme physicality, but he also has simple and large cartoonish eyes similar to Craymond, which visibly and audibly twinkle when he becomes excited.
He wears a dark gray baseball cap with a red brim, a white graphic tank top, denim shorts with an orange belt, and wristbands on his claws. He wears a total of six mismatched Enperry shoes on his legs, starting on the left and going counter-clockwise the shoes are: one Black & Blue Squidkid V, one Sun & Shade Squidkid IV, one Blue & Black Squidkid IV, one Online Squidkid V, and a pair of Red & White Squidkid V.
Personality and traits
Mr. Coco looks very intimidating, but when a customer gets to his store, he becomes very nice and offers them to try new shoes. Either way, his dialogue seems to be very kind as he wants the customers to be happy, and he looks up to his customers.
He is rumored to have pursued a career as a pop singer when he was younger.[1]

You know about gear abilities, right? They make the freshest kicks even fresher so you can play as good as you look. Maybe even better? Nah! Anyway, press if you wanna hear more about 'em. Or not if you just wanna keep shopping!"

That means that you could raise the star power of the ones you have, or trade yours in to reset their abilities. You took that info like a champ! Now all you gotta do is decide..."
When selecting a pair of shoes:
- "These, right?"
When selecting a pair of already-owned shoes:
- "Aha! You already own those, friendo! Do you want to raise the star power of your pair, or trade 'em in to reset their abilities?"
When deciding whether to exchange a pair of shoes:
- "Sounds like a plan! Just to remind you...the star power and secondary abilities will reset. Cool?"
When trying to trade in a pair of shoes that has the same main ability:

- "Aw, PHOOEY! Those are already at the highest possible star power."
When selecting a pair of shoes already bought on the same day:

Ga eerst naar de lobby, speel een paar potjes Grondoorlog, en dan bereik je voor je het weet een megavers niveau! Zodra je niveau 4 hebt bereikt, moet je hier terugkomen en een heleboel schoenen kopen! Hahaha!"
- (Come in! Come in! Welcome to Cr- Ooooh! You are not looking so fresh! Is everything going okay?! It will be fine! Do not worry! Go to the lobby first, play a couple of Turf War games, and then you will reach a mega-fresh level before you know it!

- (Come in! Come in! Crustation welcomes you with open doors! Yo, you're fresher than ever! Have you exercised?! Does that help to get fresher?! What's your secret?! My secret is shoes! Give me your feet and we'll try a pair!)
When a player at level 30 or above enters the shop for the first time:
- "Kom erin! Kom erin! Je voeten zijn aan het goede adres in Krab voor stap! [sic][Dutch 1] ZO HÉ! Tegen zo veel voetenversheid kan ik niet op! HAHAHA! Grapje! Ik heb vast wel iets leuks voor je! Wat mag het zijn?!"
- (Come in! Come on in! Your feet are at the right place in Crustation! SO HEY! I can't stand that much foot freshness! HAHAHA! Just kidding! I'm sure I have something nice for you! What can it be!)
When spending at least 100,000 cash for the first time:
- "Hé, luister! Ik moet je wat vertellen! Jij bent een van mijn trouwste klanten en duidelijk net zo'n grote schoenenfan als ik! Omdat je zo'n bijzondere schoenenfan bent, wil ik je deze badge geven! Die geef ik alleen aan speciale klanten! Dus niet online doorverkopen, hè?! Hahaha!"
- (Hey, listen! I have to tell you something! You're one of my most loyal customers and obviously as big a shoe fan as I am! Because you're such a special shoe fan, I want to give you this badge! I only give these to special customers! So don't resell them online, right?! Hahaha!)
When spending at least 1,000,000 cash for the first time:
- "Hé, ik moet iets met je bespreken! Niet over schoenen, maar... Oké [sic][Dutch 2] wel een beetje over schoenen! Weet je nog die badge die ik je eerder heb gegeven?! Nou, ik vind dat je als trouwe klant inmiddels een nog specialere badge verdient! Bedankt voor je inspirerende versheid en al je aankopen sinds je hier voor het eerst kwam binnenlopen! Je bent geweldig!"
- (Hey, I need to discuss something with you! Not about shoes, but... Okay a little bit about shoes! Remember that badge I gave you earlier! Well, I think as a loyal customer by now you deserve an even more special badge! Thanks for your inspiring freshness and all your purchases since you first walked in here! You are amazing!)
When entering the shop without an internet connection:
- "Hallo! Je zoekt vast schoe- O jee! Je bent offline! Dan kan ik je dus niet helpen! Oké, haal even diep adem, kijk diep in je hart, bezoek de lobby en maak verbinding met het internet! Ik geloof in je!"
- (Hello! You must be looking for shoe- Oh dear! You are offline! So then I can't help you! Okay, take a deep breath, look deep into your heart, visit the lobby and connect to the internet! I believe in you!

When entering the shop through or :

- (Come in! Come in!)
When the shop stocks a pair of already-owned shoes for the first time:
- "O, ik moet je wat uitleggen! Luister goed, want het gaat over schoenen, dus het is superinteressant! Als je iets wilt kopen waar je al een paar van hebt, kun je kiezen of je er de zeldzaamheid van verhoogt of dat je die van jou inruilt om de effecten ervan terug te draaien. Ik zei toch dat het interessant was?! Alleen moet je wel een lastige keuze maken! Veel succes daarmee!"
- (Oh, I have to explain something to you! Listen carefully, because it's about shoes, so it's super-interesting! If you want to buy something that you already have a pair of, you can choose whether to raise the star power or to trade in yours to reverse its abilities. I told you it was interesting! Only you have a tough choice to make! Good luck with that!)
When selecting a pair of shoes:
- "Deze dan?!"
- (These then?!)
When selecting a pair of already-owned shoes:
- "Daar heb je al een paar van! Wil je het paar dat je hebt zeldzamer maken of inruilen om de effecten terug te draaien?"
- (You already have a pair of those! Do you want to raise the star power of the pair you have or trade in to reverse the abilities?)
When deciding whether to exchange a pair of shoes:
- "Dat kan! Dan krijg je een paar waarbij de zeldzaamheid en extra effecten zijn teruggedraaid! Goed?!"
- (You can! Then you get a pair where the star power and secondary abilities have been reverted! Okay?!)
When trying to trade in a pair of shoes that has the same main ability:
- "Wacht! Je gaat toch geen paar omruilen als ze allebei hetzelfde hoofdeffect hebben?! Hahaha! Volgens mij maak je een grapje!"
- (Wait! You're not going to exchange a pair if they both have the same main ability, are you! Hahaha! I think you're kidding!)
When selecting a pair of already-owned shoes with max star power:
- "Wauw, die hebben de perfecte zeldzaamheid! Houden zo! Niets meer aan doen!"
- (Wow, those have the perfect star power! Keep it that way! Nothing more to do to it!)
When selecting a pair of already-bought shoes on the same day:
- "Ik weet dat deze geweldig zijn, maar je hoeft er niet gelijk twee paar van te kopen op dezelfde dag! Jeetje, wat ben jij een schoenenfan!"
- (I know these are great, but you don't have to buy two pairs of them right away on the same day! Geez, what a shoe fan you are!)
When selecting a pair of already-bought shoes on the same day in Inkopolis:
- "O, wat suf! Die zijn nét uitverkocht. Ik hoop dat je me kunt vergeven!"
- (Oh, how lame! Those JUST sold out. I hope you can forgive me!)
After buying a pair of shoes:
- "Trek je ze gelijk aan?!"
- (Are you putting them on right away?!)
After the player is offered to equip a purchase:
- "Dank je wel! Dank je wel! Als je een ander paar wilt aantrekken, kun je dat doen in het uitrustingsscherm! Veel plezier ermee!"
- (Thank you! Thank you! If you want to put on another pair, you can do so in the equip screen! Have fun with them!)
When not having enough cash:
- "O nee! Je hebt niet genoeg schoenengeld bij je!"
- (Oh no! You don't have enough shoe money on you!)
