Small fry/ Lil buddy appreciation thread!

[RetroShark]

We all know him, we all love him! Small fry the GOAT. Thought to make this thread for some (more) appreciation of the lil guy. So yha… post some stuff yha like about him or just post a goofy picture of him (I totally don’t want more small fry reaction iamges wink wink nudge nudge)

LITTLE BUDDYYYYYYYY YAAAAAAAAA

Small frys are mean but Little Buddy is nice. My theory is that Little Buddy was a runt that got rejected by the other Salmonids and was lonely and needed a friend. It's really bad living in that murky green water where the Samonids are.

Lil' Buddy did clean up the Fuzzy Ooze, if the Fuzzy Ooze had been left there, more Octarians would've been infected.

When the first trailer dropped I thought everyone would get lil buddy as a sub weapon in battles and each one would have 8 lil buddies flying everywhere but tbh that's a really stupid idea

But it’d be a super cool

Lil Buddy is a cool idea, definitely fun to use him on Alterna missions. I do feel like he was supposed to play a bigger role in the gameplay earlier in development, since it seems that the Alterna story mode was altered considerably from its initial conception, considering Splatoon 3's troubled development period.

As a character though? Lil Buddy is great, he's the kind of companion that just makes you laugh when you look at him long enough.

Lil Buddy is the king of beasts. Lord Superior and Highest Priest of the wild kingdom. There is no finer fish.
