He can also weaponize cooking tools and utensils, as well as using a hunting rifle and fishing rod, as he has hunted and fished on TV before.

-|Male=</tabber>
#7 Inkling	With the large amount of weapons in Splatoon, the Inklings are at no shortage of attack options. They can use their Splattershot, Splat Roller, Splat Bombs, and various other attacks. Their strongest weapon is the Killer Wail.
#8 Deadpool	Deadpool's attacks range from slashing with his two katanas to firing at opponents with his two guns. He also has a unique attribute to him; his health will slowly increase over time through his healing factor. His strongest attack has him break the fourth wall; playing with the numbers on the characters' damages percentages to heal himself and damage opponents.
#9 Leon S. Kennedy	Leon is a former rookie police officer of the RPD. He attacks with multiple guns, as well as flash grenades. He also has a grappling hook that can be used to recover and to bring opponents closer to him.

#11 Ness	Ness makes use of the PSI powers that he and his companions use in Earthbound; such as PK Fire and PK Flash. For straightforward melee attacks, he fights with a yoyo and a baseball bat.
#12 Conan O'Brien	Conan is a balanced character whose primary attack is swinging a microphone around like a whip. Many of Conan's other attacks are references to skits and characters from Late Night With Conan O'Brien.
#13 Avril Lavigne	Avril sacrifices low attack power for high speed and combo potential. Her appearance in Purgatorial Mayhem 2 is based on herself from the early 2000's. Her attacks, such as shooting spray paint and charging on a skateboard, compliment her style from back then.
#14 George Washington	George Washington attacks with weapons and tactics that reflect the American Revolutionary War. He fires a musket and summons Revolutionary War soldiers. Other attack methods he uses include biting with his wooden teeth and planting cherry trees, then chopping them down. He can also ride a horse, providing an increase in speed and attack power.
#15 Joker	Joker is a stealthy fighter who wields a knife and a gun. He can also cast Eiha by snapping his fingers. If he has taken or dealt enough damage, he will summon his Persona; Arnese. When Arsene is active, Joker's attacks will increase in power.

#17 Mr. Met	Mr. Met was the first official MLB mascot, making his debut in the early 60's. Nowadays, he has made history as one of the most recognizable sports mascots. He is the ranged fighter to contrast Bartolo Colon's close-range playstyle. Mr. Met attacks primarily with a modified cannon constructed from a pitching machine and a T-shirt cannon.
#18 Ruby Rose	Ruby Rose is a Huntress and the leader of Team RWBY. She attacks with Crescent Rose, which functions as both a close-range and long-ranged weapon. She can also use Petal Burst to run at very high speeds.
#19 Cuphead	Cuphead excels at ranged combat, but not so much at close combat. He makes use of multiple finger gun styles, such as Peashooter, Chaser, Spread, and Roundabout. He can also use his Super Arts to aid him in battle.

However, he can also transform into The Coon, who reappears from South Park: The Stick Of Truth. His strongest attack, Crossfire, has him summon Jesus Christ, who fires a gun at opponents.
#22 Kim Possible	Kim uses all sorts of technology in her moveset. She can use projectile weapons, evade attacks quickly, and recover with a grappling hook. She's no slouch in close combat, either. Her weakness is that she's lightweight and easy to knock out.
#23 Captain Lou Albano	If players want to use a power-based character right off the bat, look no further than Captain Lou. As one would expect from an 80's wrestler, he is a grappler whose attacks are rather dynamic. He also has the Mario outfit from The Super Mario Bros. Super Show as an alternate costume.
#24 Solid Snake	Snake plays very similar to his incarnation from Super Smash Bros. He attacks with grenades, C4s, and close combat. He also has some new moves at his disposal, such as the Stun Knife and other stealth-based moves.
#25 Edd 	Edd and the rest of the Eddsworld gang have arrived in Purgatorial Mayhem 2. His primary weapon is a shotgun, but he can also use Coca-Cola and Mentos to attack. He is more balanced stats-wise than Matt, Tom, and Tord.
