Real-world information
The exact type of squid in the Animal Crossing series is not known but judging by the City Folk's description, it may be a European squid which is white with two long arms. The family name, 'Loliginidae' is commonly referred to as the inshore, calamari, and grass squid. Squids eat small plants, insects and small animals that float on the surface of the ocean.
Trivia
- In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, the squid's tank when placed as furniture bears an icon that resembles an Inkling.
- Additionally, two of its catch quotes are a reference to Inklings and Off the Hook. The usage of "inkling" doubles as a pun, referring to the word's main meaning, "a slight knowledge or vague notion."
- The catch quote in Doubutsu no Mori e+ and one in Animal Crossing: New Horizons refer to Bloopers.
- The Fish-Drying Rack can be customized to feature Squid in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
