## Trivia

* As can be seen here and mentioned here, this Event Pass / update was originally intended to feature Marauder Tyra, Levianthan Yagorath, Ripjaw Buck, and an unused Aquatic Seris.
	+ This also obviously explains why Ripjaw Buck was oddly a part of the Beach Bash Event Pass, rather than this more fitting theme.
* Various concept and unused sprays for this Event Pass can be seen here, notably including unused jellyfish sprays, the Bang! spray firing one of Bomb King's bombs, and a spray of Leviathan Yagorath approaching Mernos from underwater.
* Several unused Death Stamp concepts for this Event Pass can be seen here, including concepts such as a half stepped on sandcastle called "Let's Kick It", a pirate octopus called "Octi Roger", and a pirate shrimp in a glass of sauce called "Try Me".
* This is one of the only Event Passes to not feature a new Death Card, sharing this trait with the Monstercat Crossover Pass.
* Teasers for this Event Pass can be found here.
	+ Teaser 1 (Tyra)
	+ Teaser 2 (Saati)
	+ Teaser 3 (Io)
	+ Teaser 4 (Yagorath)
