—Meggy right after shooting Mario in SMG4: If Mario Was In... Splatoon

Meggy Spletzer is one of the two deuteragonists (alongside Luigi) of the SMG4 series, and the main protagonist of her own spin-off series, Sunset Paradise.

She is a highly competitive athlete in SMG4's Gang who protects herself and her friends from danger. Originally a citizen of Inkopolis, Meggy was obsessed with winning Splatfest, the top Inkling sports competition. Although she started on poor terms with Mario when she escaped from a paint can she was trapped in, they quickly became good friends when he participated in Splatfest with her. As of SMG4: Meggy Moves In, she has moved into the Mushroom Kingdom, now residing in Belmont, Mushroom City, joining SMG4's Gang as one of its most competent and level-headed members. Meggy also played a central role in the Anime Arc.

The arc ended with her being transformed into a human by The Ink Zuccer 2000, affecting her appearance in all subsequent episodes. For the next few episodes after her forced transformation to a human, Meggy practiced for the final Splatfest to honor Desti, while finding difficulty in being human in SMG4 Movie: Meggy's Destiny. Eventually, she and her Splat Squad successfully defeated Team Killer Ink, finally earning the trophy.

Due to the events in SMG4: War Of The Fat Italians 2020, her Inkling voice was changed, first being voiced by Lizzie Freeman (from 2020 to the 1st half of 2022) and later Elsie Lovelock (as of SMG4: DO NOT ENTER), affecting her voice in all subsequent episodes. In Season 10, while still a major character, her roles and appearances slightly decreased due to the presence of new characters, like Hal Monitor and JubJub Boopkins, and older returning characters, like SMG3 and Steve, but her appearances have increased since November after SMG4: Cooking with Mario & Bowser: World Tour. In My New Adventure., Meggy temporarily left the gang in Season 11 to vacation in Port Aurora to figure out what to do next in life.

This makes Meggy the first character in the SMG4 series to receive a proper spin-off series, as Tari was initially created as a teaser for Meta Runner before its release but both are separate characters. She later returned to the gang in the episode She's Back! and had decided on becoming a PE teacher.

In Season 12, Meggy and Melony enrolled themselves into Omnia Academy, while she played an assisting role with the SMG4 Crew in the Cosmology Lore saga. Afterwards, she and SMG4 starred as the main protagonists in The Lawsuit Arc, involving Nintendo taking legal action against SMG4's content and channel with Meggy as SMG4's lawyer.

In SMG4: Grand Theft Mario, she officially became a sport coach after graduating from Omnia Academy. Tari, hoping to become braver, became her first student.

In Season 14, she would served an antagonistic role against the SMG4 cast, when she was being crushed, into a Goomba-esque creature as "Leggy", against her own will. Later as Leggy she became the Key to stop Mr. Puzzles once and for all.

Despite getting divisive reacts from the fanbase (mostly between 2021 and 2022), she got herself through the years into being one of the main characters of the show, and is one of Luke's favorite characters.

Biography

Meggy is a female human, formerly an Inkling, who originates from Inkopolis. She is an active competitor in local Turf War battles and dreams of becoming a successful athlete. As such, she refers to herself as an "upcoming star." For that, she tries too hard and gets into lots of fiascoes when trying to be too competitive.

Sometime prior to SMG4: If Mario Was In... Splatoon in Inkopolis, a Splatfest battle took place between a squad and the legendary One Shot Wren, who splatted them. Watching from the grandstand, a toddler Meggy Spletzer rushed to meet him, only to be unknowingly saved when Wren kicked an Inkling who was about to splat him. Impressed by her bravery, he gave her his beanie, and telling her that she would be champion one day. This inspired the toddler Meggy to become just like him.

One day, Meggy was jumping around in her Inkling form and mistakenly jumped inside a orange paint can that was taken away by the Mushroom Kingdom Paint transfer co. while completely unaware, and eventually freed by Mario. Later, she dragged him into Inkopolis, where Mario joined her team, the Splat Squad to participate in the Turf War.

From that day forward, Meggy has appeared in many episodes, often now residing in the Mushroom Kingdom and hanging out more with Mario, SMG4 and Co; and has thus become a recurring major protagonist. By the events of The Anime Arc she was kidnapped by Francis and reconciled with her Octoling rival Desti, who was later killed by Sephiroth. At the end of The Anime Arc, Meggy was transformed from an Inkling into a human after getting all of her ink extracted by The Ink Zuccer 2000.

After she confronted all her trauma and grief, Meggy competed and won the last Splatfest to honor Desti, while learning the difficulties in being human. During the events WOTFI 2020, her Inkling vocals and accent changed by the YouTube Remote, courtesy of SMG3. She later suffers a existential crisis and decided going on a vacation to Port Aurora. She then returned back to the Mushroom Kingdom from vacation and has decided on becoming a PE teacher.

Meggy and Melony enrolled themselves to Omnia Academy, where they could further their studies in their preferred skills. Melony had already graduated after she mastered her Fierce Deity powers, while Meggy stated she'll also later graduate shortly after.

Afterwards, in The Lawsuit Arc, Funky Kong working on Nintendo's behalf as lawyer, issuing a copyright violation lawsuit against SMG4 to re-obtain her friend Mario. Later, SMG4 then stands for trial, with Meggy being the defendant's lawyer-in-training; and the court deemed SMG4's verdict not guilty, and his channel is saved.

After the events in SMG4 Movie: IT'S GOTTA BE PERFECT, she graduates from her studies and Tari became Meggy’s first student as she finally found her purpose as a Coach.

SMG4 Movie: WESTERN SPAGHETTI She later learns of her former idol’s whereabouts, and insists traveling there, which led the group trapped inside the simulation known as Western Spaghetti, for a month, specifically torturing Meggy, until her and Tari succeeding in overcoming the simulation and escaped.

Meggy involuntarily went meme hunting with SMG4, during the trip, her body was then crushed so badly that she's reduced to as a Goomba-esque creature known as "Leggy", for a brief period of time, which Mr. Puzzles, a villainous individual finds a liking compassion with Leggy. Meggy befriended his inner child, letting go of his ambitions, but despite this, Mr. Puzzles was eventually arrested, though Meggy hopes he’ll improve one day.

In SMG4: Final Hours, Meggy's form changed, owing to the fact that an excessive amount of ink was extracted by The Ink Zuccer 2000 (leaving less ink to compose her body), changing her from an Inkling into a human girl. She now has freckles and red-brown eyes with thick eyelashes, her tentacle hair has become normal ginger (orange) hair with messy bangs, and her body is thinner and somewhat taller. However, Meggy retains her outfit and accessories, even her Inkling gear, though with noticeable differences. Her shirt now features a design of a girl with flowing hair and wearing headphones, and her compression shorts are dark grey and somewhat longer, as well as her boots. She is no longer vulnerable to water, but also can no longer turn into a squid.

Personality

Meggy is a jock who enjoys playing sports and going on adventures with Mario and the others. Her main sport of interest being a Turf War, in which her goal is to become the top athlete. She is very competitive as she is willing to take on any challenge that is thrown at her and also has a thirst for victory. An example is in The Mario Channel: MARIO'S CHALLENGE as she seems to care about winning than about the actual prize Mario is offering. She also wanted to win the Splatfest as she was focused on training for it hard and is determined on winning it as she finally gets to do in SMG4 Movie: Meggy's Destiny. She also seems to really like winning challenges as she tries her hardest to try to win them. She also appears to have a strong sense of justice as she graduated as a lawyer in university, and has a desire to fight crime after winning Splatfest.

She is brave, independent, level headed, competitive, enthusiastic, determined, caring, friendly, spunky, energetic, confident, competent, and smart.

Meggy is typically smarter than most characters and is typically levelheaded. An example being SMG4: Mario University where she is the only one who didn't go to university for money and instead thought of a job. Later, when she has to defend Mario because he is blamed for messing up the university, she suspected the flaws in Waluigi's tape, and managed to get the fact that the shady person threw away the spaghetti and managed to find out SMG4 ate the food, and doesn't go after SMG4, unlike the others. Another example being SMG4: The Mario Mafia, where she is unimpressed at Mario revealing he sprayed "pingas" at Bowser's car, only asking him "Really, Mario? Pingas?". SMG4: Final Fantasy Mario reveals her to be a quick thinker as well, as she uses SMG4 and Mario's powers to defeat Saiko. In SMG4: Smart Mario, where she, along with Luigi and Tari, simply tried to talk to Mario instead of beating him up like SMG4, Bob, and everyone else in the crowd. Another example being SMG4: Little Penguin Lost where she chastises Mario for kicking the penguin, and tells Mario before going the hill, that it's too dangerous, but Mario refused to listen and did so anyway.

However, just like every character, she has a crazy side and can be trigger-happy, as shown in SMG4: Final Fantasy Mario where she goes trigger-happy when she sees Bob with a target on his t-shirt, eventually losing her sanity and shot it a lot of times. This action eventually gets her, Mario, and SMG4 noticed. Another example is in SMG4: Mario and the Bob Mansion... where she goes trigger-happy again when Bowser says the word "paint", causing her to go crazy yet again and throw a lot of ink bombs and paint all over the kitchen trying to paint the turkey as Bowser instructed, while Bowser is looking at her annoyed, eventually sending the kitchen and later the entire mansion on fire (albeit accidentally). In SMG4: Studying for Exams...But you're friends with Mario, this crazy side is also shown as she drank a bunch of energy drinks and learn through the night, thanks to her stressing out over the exam. If Meggy had been smarter, she would not have done that and taken more care of her sanity and slept.

Meggy is also very determined as she never gives up on her dreams and goals. She never gave up on winning Splatfest and was persistent on winning one. Desti notes that this is why she picked Meggy as her rival. Whenever she gets knocked down, she will always get back up.

However, she can go overboard over her Splatfest training, showing her to be over competitive. For example, in SMG4: If Mario Was In... Splatoon 2 after she met Desti for the first time, she wanted to train extra harder. Mario was reluctant to do so, but she was persistent in doing so. After getting into a huge fight with him, she became sad and said that if Mario wouldn't take Splatfest seriously just like her, then he can go leave. Another example is in SMG4: Meggy's Bootcamp where this is taken to the extremes unlike last time. She had a harsh, strict, and bossy mentor-like personality in the first few minutes. She set up hard training obstacles and yelled at her friends for not trying. She does apologize for this behavior, however.

Meggy can have a stubborn side to her too, most prominently in SMG4 Movie: Meggy's Destiny where she refuses the Ink Boi 3000, Professor E. Gadd gave her as a way to compensate for her human form. Due to thinking she doesn't need it, this has almost caused her to lose the Splatfest. Throughout the movie, she refuses to accept the fact that she needed the Ink Boi, even when others like Mario tell her to do so. She even throws the Ink Boi in the trash just because she thinks she doesn't need it. However, she grew out of it after making peace with her Inkling self. Another example being SMG4: Mario And... The Well, where Mario asks her about when she got the truck (she took it from Swagmaster6969696969, in which Swagmaster stole the fire truck from the government). Meggy refused to answer, lying about herself always being a firefighter, until Saiko Bichitaru bluntly tells them they stole it, in response, Meggy stomped her foot on top of the firetruck, saying that they "borrowed" it.

Meggy can also be helpful and loyal as she is willing to and tries to help her friends in any way, proving her to be a formidable opponent. She also tends to help Mario when he needs a lawyer or to get him out of trouble. This is shown in SMG4: Mario's Big Chungus Hunt where she tries to get the Chungus Tribe to not eat Mario, it eventually succeeds, but Mario is not grateful and sticks the middle finger at her instead.

Meggy appears to be aware of her own abilities and seems to have knack of taunting anyone who believes she's cheating although she isn't, usually by making taunting gestures. An example is in The Mario Channel: MARIO'S CHALLENGE where she shoots the bullseye and succeeds, thus earning a pass. This annoys Heavy to the point of trying to shoot the target multiple times only to get disqualified shortly afterwards. She does seem to enjoy stupidity-based jokes as she finds Mario's stupidity to be hilarious.

Despite usually enjoying his stupidity, she is usually more critical/acts aggressively when a situation is serious. As shown in SMG4: The Mario Mafia, where she was the only one to not laugh at Mario after he claimed he sprayed Bowser's car with the word "Pingas" on it, only saying "Seriously, Mario?! Pingas?" This is also shown in SMG4: Mario and The Diss Track, where she glares at Mario twice when he suggests to hit Bob with a baseball bat after dissing the gang. This is also shown in SMG4: Little Penguin Lost, where she angrily yells at Mario after he ordered pizza instead of calling for help. This side of hers is more prominent in SMG4: Studying for Exams...But you're friends with Mario, where throughout the entire episode, she rages at Mario whenever he interrupts her studying, and sees Mario as a distraction, constantly getting angry at everything he does. This is also shown through its sequel episode, SMG4: Mario Goes To College, where Mario annoys her and everyone else throughout the episode with the Box Club, and it is more prevalent where while her training someone, he knocks down the person, and tells her to join the Box Club, Meggy is shown to be angered by this, and throws him to a trash can outside. Also shown in SMG4: If Mario Was Spiderman, where she rages in the background during one of the scenes where Mario acts like Spider-Man.

Meggy also tends to feel sorry whenever she offends somebody/or is too strict to someone. An example being SMG4: If Mario Was In... Splatoon 2 where she trains for Splatfest with Mario harshly, and after Mario said "F-fine. I didn’t want to do this stupid crap anyways." She likely got really emotional, and after finding Mario, she says "Mario! I've been looking everywhere for you!" meaning she tried to find Mario desperately afterwards. Then right after Mario leaves, Meggy is desperate to ask Mario if he was going to stay on her team, from which both walk away to get lunch, showing her to get really concerned about losing Mario as a friend. An example is in SMG4: Meggy's Bootcamp where she harshly yells at her friends for failing the training for Splatfest, only to feel remorse afterwards when she realizes that she was being too harsh on them. She heartly apologizes to them for being "mean" to them and that winning Splatfest won't be important to her when she loses her friends along the way. This causes her to train her teammates with easier courses and a more friendly and supportive attitude. SMG4: Officer Meggy shows a somewhat inverted variation. She does show a dis AMOGUS!!!!! gust for Hal Monitor's ways to punish criminals (torture for example) and thinking it would be too far. Later on however, she is easily convinced by Hal Monitor that there's nothing wrong with that because it's "for justice". Overall, she does seem to a bit more willing to dialogue with criminals and is less prone to physical violence than him. For example, when she confronts the Shy Guy Leader on why he stole a bunch of monitors before taking action to arrest him, instead of just immediately giving out a punishment without further ado. However, in Sunset Paradise it is shown that she is more than likely to resort to violence when someone ticks her off. Another example is in SMG4: Meggy's Part-Time Job where she gets mad at JubJub Boopkins for being naughty and catching him in a cage, but then feels remorse for it due to her lack of babysitting experience.

Meggy can have an aggressive side at times, an example being SMG4 Christmas 2017: The XMAS Discovery where she becomes enraged at the realization that she had been scammed. Then Waluigi pops in front of her, and she uppercuts him to the roof. Wario gets scared and tries to run away, but she tries to catch him by using Christmas stars as shurikens in which he dodges. Later on, however Mario thought Wario was Santa Claus and catches him, causing Meggy to tie him up under a tunnel (off-screen). Another example being in SMG4: Food Wars where she tries to attack Mario by using a chainsaw because he knocked the candy off the ground. Another example being SMG4 Christmas Special 2020 where she becomes extremely angry at Fishy Boopkins and tries to burn his anime collection replacing it with normal Christmas decorations instead, Boopkins tries to fight back with using anime instead, in which they have a fight over which decoration is better, with both realizing they went too far and deciding to use both instead. this side is further shown in the Revelations Arc, when she becomes agitated by Mario's antics and subsequently attacks him.

Meggy seems to have an insecure and sensitive side to her, as she hates losing and loses her confidence whenever her best efforts fail or prove to not be good enough, however she seems to gain back her confidence fairly quickly thanks to Mario's confusing but well-intentioned advice.

Her sensitive side shows more in The Anime Arc where in SMG4: Meggy's Bootcamp where she cries and calls herself a failure and a disappointment and claims to be "losing sight of who she is" before bursting into tears. Like with the first instance above, Mario comforts her. In SMG4: Final Hours where she cries again where she believes that Desti died because of her and if she had been a little faster or a little better then she wouldn't have died. She then proceeds to cry afterwards, and her friends comfort her.

Meggy (Lawyer figurine)

Meggy as her lawyer figurine (2022)

She became even more insecure to the point of having a self-loathing for herself, due to events such as Desti's death, her becoming a human, and her not being able to find a job she's good at, to the point where it created Shadow Meggy.

Outside of The Anime Arc, she shows this. Where, in SMG4: There's Something Up With Meggy... she goes crazy after Desti's death and proceeds to cry silently and says that she has no motivation to train. In SMG4 Movie: Meggy's Destiny she seems to be really insecure about Splatfest and cries heavily whenever she believed she lost Splatfest. Axol then proceeds to comfort her and says that it's okay and to have fun. Later on, when the Squid Sisters notify her that the other team was cheating, she gains her confidence back.

It returned a year later in SMG4: Mario VS Youtubers where Mario refuses to let her be her boxing coach, she becomes disheartened about it, and spends the entire episode trying to get him to accept her training. In the very next episode, SMG4: The Pursuit of Happiness where she becomes depressed even more after failing at all of her jobs. After receiving a ticket from SMG4 and crew, she gains back her confidence and takes a vacation, kickstarting Sunset Paradise.

Role in SMG4 Movie: Meggy's Destiny

Meggy serves as the titular main protagonist of the movie. The movie focuses on her difficulties to honor Desti's promise to win Splatfest, and also to accept her change in species, due to her refusal to use E. Gadd's 'Ink Boi,' designed to grant humans inkling abilities. Because of this, she struggles through each section of the Splatfest, often outmatched by both the other inklings and her friends due to their Ink Bois. however she still manages to keep up with help from her friends, until they lose in one of the last rounds. Meggy becomes very sad about this, and begins to realize how racist Inkopolis is, as nearly every shop or fun attraction refuses to serve humans or let them use it, Axol then convinces her to try out the Ink Boi, and with her regained confidence she led the team to win the Splatfest after Mario finds the winning team cheated. Meggy then finally makes peace with Desti and her inkling self, accepting the fact that she's a human, and insists fulfilling Desti's promise. Now since she finished Splatfest, she closed the book on that part of her life, and started a new chapter with her friends.


Sunset Paradise

Meggy serves as the protagonist of the series, helping the local deputy Auri Bori stop the baddies of Port Aurora from their evil misdoings. She hunted down the Spud Buds and captured Whisk with help from Auri. However she and her partner got falsely blamed by the Funky Force and the villains they captured were released by either Benedict, their boss, or Whisk. Benedict killed her and Auri, or so they thought. Apparently they survived in the vacuum that trapped the Spud Buds because it was made of titanium. The two were ready to get back at the criminals. They captured the Spud Buds again, got through Whisk and saved the mayor. They stole the Funky Force's van to get to the lighthouse. The Funky Force were gonna fire their technique called the "Funky Flare", but the mayor took the hit instead. Meggy and Auri were the only ones who survived that when the mayor helped but he wasn’t so lucky. They climbed the lighthouse to finish Benedict once and for all. Once they reached the tower, Benedict stood in their way. The two got past Benedict and climbed to the top. Benedict then started shooting at Auri until Meggy arrived at the top. Benedict then charged a laser, preparing to kill Meggy. Auri then jumped into the laser, preventing it from reaching Meggy. Upon being shot, Auri falls to the ground, coughing, with Meggy crying while telling him that they're going to get through this. Auri then dies, giving Meggy even more motivation to kill Benedict. She leaps up into the air, only to be stopped by Whisk. The two girls then have a fight at the top of the lighthouse, resulting in a win for Meggy. The Phoenix Egg then hatched, reviving Auri. Meggy and Auri then make their way down the lighthouse. Meggy then spends some time with Auri at the beach, and takes a picture with him with her before she goes home the next day.


Role in SMG4 Movie: WESTERN SPAGHETTI

Meggy serves as the main protagonist of the movie, Meggy learned that her childhood idol, Oneshot Wren, disappeared after falling off into disgrace, only to somehow resurface as the sheriff in the titular town of Western Spaghetti. She quickly convinces Tari to come with her, claiming that meeting Wren will help with her training, and they, along with the rest of the crew, board a train to the Wild West. However, Meggy later discovers they're are trapped in a simulation, Wren confesses to having been the one who hired the Inklings steal Meggy's beanie to lure her and her friends into the simulation, having kidnapped everyone while they were still on the train. Enraged, she tries to shoot Wren, only for herself to be shot, as she never actually left the simulation. Wren then forces Meggy in a death loop where he hunts down and shoots her over a month. However, it all falls apart when Meggy, with help from Tari, eventually breaks free of the simulation for real, Wren brings the simulation to the real world to drag Meggy and Tari back in. As the machine breaks down, and everyone Wren had captured flees the collapsing lair, a somber Meggy states her wish in wanting to have been friends with him, and he responds at least she at least made "one hell of a rival" before quietly accepting his demise, Meggy eventually still has trauma from the event since then.

Meggy Livestreams

MeggyRTX2

Meggy's appearance in Stream

Sometimes, Meggy has done streams, but mainly with a different model as she uses the RTX model from SMG4: The Quest for RTX. She also has done a Q&A and reveals that she has an addiction to noodles, and the age reveal that she was 19 years old (and also it was revealed that she was 15 at her debut). In her first stream, she answers some questions, and reacted to memes and fanart, and did a few lines of karaoke. In her reaction to the 10 Year Anniversary Special, which is her second ever stream, she is concerned about Mario and her friends, and expresses deep concern for him whenever he was corrupted by SMG0. However, she breathes a sigh or relief when it is revealed her friends are okay.

Powers and Abilities

Power Level: A-tier

  • Transformation: Like all Inklings, Meggy had the ability to transform into a squid when she was over a large ink covered area of her same color. She appears to have lost this ability after her transformation into a human. Starting from SMG4: You Made Mario Do This, Meggy can transform into a shorter torso-less version of herself known as Leggy.
  • Martial Arts/Hand-to-hand Skill: Meggy is shown to know some form of unarmed combat. In SMG4: Mario And The T-Pose Virus, she used her martial arts skills to fight back against the T-Pose zombies. Unfortunately, it proved futile and ends up infected anyway, as she can't take the blame. In SMG4: Wild, Wild Mario, she roundhouse/spin kicks a cowboy in a saloon who is threatening Shroomy. In SMG4 Christmas 2017: The XMAS Discovery, using full effort in rage, she was able to perform an uppercut so strong it sent Waluigi into the roof. (Waluigi would later unintentionally return the favor by making her his minion later acquiring the power of a god in SMG4: The Mario Convention!.) In SMG4: The Mario Mafia, she was able to channel her inner Johnny Lawrence and sweep Wendy’s leg before kicking her out a window. SMG4: Mario School Club revealed that she knows Karate, as she ran a Karate club for her friends. In Sunset Paradise, she beat up a shark underwater without sustaining an injury. During Meggy's Debut Stream! 🔴, she revealed that she has been practicing Taekwondo alongside Saiko Bichitaru, and is currently at a yellow belt.
  • Disarming: In SMG4: The Mario Mafia, she has no problem disarming Wendy's multiple weapons one after the other. (Even disarming 2 swords with 1 bullet)
  • Inhuman Accuracy: Meggy is shown to practically hit any target at any range. In SMG4: Final Fantasy Mario; When Meggy received her Fire gun, she successfully hit multiple targets - most of which she did while looking at her phone. In SMG4: The Mario Carnival she managed to hit large numbers of targets with extreme efficiency and accuracy, going on par with Tari before being bested by her on "power drive mode". In SMG4: Wild, Wild Mario, she hit a bucket across a small town and knocked it down to prevent DK from escaping. In SMG4: Stupid Mario Sports Mix, she hit multiple bull-eyes in the archery competition. In The Mario Channel: MARIO'S CHALLENGE; she aced Mario's bulls-eye challenge - a feat that was so amazing, Heavy attempted to prove she was cheating somehow, only to be disqualified when he used his Minigun in a fit of rage. In SMG4: New Year, New Mario; she managed to hit the stop button on a microwave from the other end of a large kitchen by accurately throwing a fork in a shuriken-fashion. The only ones who surpass her in sharpshooting are Tari and Shroomy.
  • Weapon Mastery: Ranged: Meggy is shown to have an instant mastery of nearly any ranged weapon.
  • Enhanced Endurance: Meggy has shown to be able to withstand strenuous challenges with ease. In If Mario was in... Splatoon 2, Meggy is more than able to pick up the difficulty, while Mario only wants to get some food. However, this is because Mario is one of the most unfit characters in the series. She is also capable enough to survive Francis’ Ink Zuccer 2000 long enough before it was destroyed, albeit with permanent results. She can also withstand a tank collision to a wall and survived a crushing of a giant bowl after the contents were eaten by Gourmet Guy.
  • High Intelligence: Meggy is not only athletic—she is shown to be quite smart as well. In SMG4: Mario University, she is able to quickly deduce that the culprit who trashed the campus kitchen was SMG4 and not Mario because the culprit threw a plate of spaghetti away. She was also one of the only people who didn't go to university for money. She also is shown to be a quick thinker in SMG4: Final Fantasy Mario where she used Mario and SMG4's powers in order to defeat Saiko. In SMG4: The Mario Showdown, where she and Desti go on a one-on-one duel, and where she tricks Desti by throwing her Splattershot at her and made her distracted, while she got her friends to get back her guns afterwards. (The following is only a hypothesis) However, it seems that hanging around the other idiots has had an effect on her intelligence, because she has started to increasingly have more silly moments and quote more memes and even going "derp-eyes" once (albeit due to Tari violently shaking her in excitement), though she is still significantly more intelligent than a lot of the others, even if her IQ has dropped a little since she first met Mario.
  • Vocals: Meggy has shown off her vocal skills during the rap battles in SMG4: War of the Fat Italians 2017 and SMG4: War Of The Fat Italians 2018. In SMG4: War Of The Fat Italians 2020, her voice was permanently changed during the rap after SMG3 accidentally pressed the closed captions button when Mario kicked him, improving her voice in later videos.
  • Bilingualism: In SMG4 Shorts: Meggy Learns Japanese, she was taught how to speak Italian by Mario. This is debatable, as Saiko Bichitaru said Mario was only speaking gibberish.
  • Swimming: After turning human, in SMG4: The Minecraft Plague, she appears to be good at it.
  • Guns: It's not really a power, but as an Immortal, Meggy has access to a wide variety of guns.
  • Infinite strength: In SMG4: Mario Goes On A Diet Meggy can be seen picking up mario to place him on a scale which reveals that he is infinitely heavy.
  • Leggy power-down: When Meggy panics or is squashed, she shrinks into her Leggy form. This form was later reproduced by SMG4 as workers for his Factory. However, this puts a strain on Meggy's body because she suddenly shrinks into a small body.

Weaknesses

Though Meggy has many physical abilities and is extremely agile, she also has equally as many weaknesses:

Counter: 13

  1. Overconfidence: She tends to overestimate what she is capable of, especially in combat situations. In Stupid Mario Sports Mix, she blindly jumped into the pool in the swimming section, only to drown and die (though she respawned). In The T-Pose Virus she attempted to recklessly fight off a small group of T-Pose Zombies alone. It seemed to be going well for a few moments, but then she was completely overwhelmed and joined their ranks. In SMG4: Mario's Prison Escape, she attempted to kick Swag master 69696969696 in the face, only for him to then respond "ow that hurt you thot" "Time to teach you a lesson in ass-whooping" right before he swung at the gang's escape truck so hard he almost made it steer into a crash.
  2. Anime: She has a big fear of it, though this is implied to be more a result of her upbringing in Inkopolis than personal hatred, as Axol was heavily bullied throughout his childhood for liking anime. According to 🔴 (LIVE) Meggy Plays Friday Night Funkin! (SMG4 Mods), her innate reasons for hating anime were the pointy chins and the huge eyes.
  3. Poor Cooking: Meggy is infamous for her cooking, which usually ends up catching up on fire, making an abomination or making disgusting soup.
  4. In episodes like “Mario and the Bob Mansion” and “Mario has a BBQ but he’s not invited”, It usually just catches on fire and burns quickly. In “Mario bakes a ‘’’’’Cake’’’’’”, The green soup Mario makes is described as “Meggy’s Cooking”. But sometimes, it may be helpful as in “All I want for Christmas is MARIO TO FREAKIN BEHAVE”, Where her own cookies defeated the Snow Golem.
  5. Noodle Addiction: Meggy has eaten noodles her entire life which led to her poor cooking and the fact that Tari and Saiko convinced her to quit noodles but then Axol cooked some noodles, Meggy relapsed, and SMG4's Gang had to help her with her addiction.
  6. Overdosing on Energy Drinks: Trying to study for exams had gotten her and melony tired with hours left to study so they both drank litter worth of Energy Drinks which boost their energy enough to study for the entire night. Unfortunately, this ends up backfiring as they both pass out from sheer tiredness and lack of Energy drinks left. It also causes Meggy to go Full Sugar rush and ends up in a box with a pineapple and a tattoo and/or possibly Urinary Incontinence.
  7. Mind Control: Meggy has been brainwashed before, which is clearly evident in episode Saturday Night Funkin' of Sunset Paradise which her mind was altered by the Funky Fource into attacking Auri. She only broke out of this control after the jukebox was that aided in the brainwashing was destroyed indirectly.
  8. Short stature: Although Meggy is very talented, one of her disadvantages is that she can't always be taken seriously because of her small stature. So Meggy was included in a song called "Short & Tall". What's more, she couldn't even knock Captain Falcon over. In addition, SMG4 didn't take her seriously for basketball because she is too small and was therefore not called up to his team.
  9. Anger Issues: In several episodes like SMG4: DO NOT ENTER and SMG4: The Pawn Business Meggy is shown to have severe anger issues that cloud her mind of what is right and wrong and makes her irrational, Which in recent 2022 is more common, The possible in-universe explanation is that Meggy is severely stressed out.
  10. Inability to play dumb: It's possible that Meggy is good at some roles, but when it comes to playing dumb, she fails miserably. When she took over the role of Mario for a day, she tried things that Mario does. T-pose-air-twisting, over-stretching your mouth, eating spaghetti or even using memes properly. All of this didn't work properly as she wasn't quite ready to play the dumb one.
  11. Knowledge gaps: Although Meggy studied sport, she lacked the basic knowledge of bowling, although she was able to catch up, it is still unknown what gaps she still has.
  12. Restricted Insight: In SMG4: Mario Goes On A Diet, Meggy was a bit lacking in insight until she realized that her school only provided standard knowledge and that every person is different.
  13. Taxing the Body (Leggy morph): After Meggy's inner Leggy moved on, Meggy made it clear that being in Leggy's small body puts an uncomfortable strain on her body, probably because her bones have to go somewhere when she shrinks.

Overcome

  • Water: Due to her Inkling physiology, Meggy doesn't have the ability to swim in water and will dissolve on contact with it. Since Meggy is now a human, she is no longer affected by this weakness as of SMG4: The Minecraft Plague, since she can be seen swimming.
  • Depression: Ironically one of Meggy's greatest weaknesses is herself. She has a tendency to doubt herself and her own decisions ever since her transformation and the loss of Desti. This culminated in SMG4: The Pursuit of Happiness, in which her anxiety and trauma manifested as Shadow Meggy, kickstarting the events of Sunset Paradise, the ending of which has Meggy making peace with her demons, and moving forward with her life.

Criminal Record

Although she has a good moral compass, she had committed some crimes during her appearances.

Trivia

Click on "Show Trivia" to see a list of Meggy Spletzer trivia.

  • She's currently been an Inkling in 54 episodes and a human for the rest of the series.
  • She's the first female modern main character.
  • Despite her human form, Meggy kept her Inkling voice until it was changed by the YouTube Remote in SMG4: War Of The Fat Italians 2020. However, her voice reverted to her Inkling voice when she temporarily became an Inkling again in The Lawsuit Arc.
  • When she was voiced by Lizzie Freeman, Meggy usually used recycled voice clips similarly to Mario and Luigi rather than constantly recording new ones.
  • Luke and Kevin made the character to celebrate Splatoon 2's release.
  • In SMG4: If Mario Was In... Splatoon, Meggy's eye color is inconsistent. In the thumbnail and the majority of the episode, it is green, but the pink/purple-ish color that would be used in her later appearances also appeared fairly frequently. Her eye color also briefly changed to various other colors in the episode. Later episodes consistently used the pink/purple-ish color, except for a fan-made scene in the 2 MILLION FAN COLLABERATION SPECIAL! (SSENMODNAR) that used the green color from her first appearance.
  • Meggy was the only female member of her team until SMG4: Meggy's Bootcamp revealed that her old teammates left and new replacements were made, with Tari being one of them.
  • When Meggy was an Inkling, her shoes were sometimes shown as the Punk Cherries instead of the Octoling Boots in certain video thumbnails.
  • Despite Meggy's hatred of anime, in Meggy's Debut Stream! 🔴, she admits that she enjoys playing as Toon Link, Chrom, and Ike in Super Smash Bros., who she refers to as "anime swordfighters". Additionally, she is ironically likened to an anime character herself by Mario in SMG4: Mario's Mask Of Madness and SMG4 in 🔴 (LIVE) Meggy tells SMG4 about her vacation.
  • Meggy's voice as an Inkling primarily used Inkling voice clips from Splatoon, though it also used voice clips from Callie, Marie, and sometimes enemy Octolings. In SMG4: Meggy's Bootcamp, she started to also use Pearl's voice clips.
  • In Saiko's song Darkest Hour, Meggy plays guitar and can be heard singing some of the lines with Saiko. Like Saiko herself, Meggy's singing voice in the song is provided by Ellyn Barclay, who also voiced her in the rap battles in SMG4: War of the Fat Italians 2017 and SMG4: War Of The Fat Italians 2018.
  • When Meggy was an Inkling, she was sometimes erroneously called an octopus by other characters.
  • Meggy has relatively sworn a few times throughout the series compared to other characters. She swears in SMG4: Final Fantasy Mario during the fight scene against Saiko where she says "Oh Sh*t" in the heat of battle, SMG4: Mario waits for pizza after she fake sneezed one of Fishy Boopkins DVD players and he said he has like 100 more of them and Meggy said "Holy Sh#t!", and SMG4: Mario And The T-Pose Virus where she says "F**k Off" as she kicks away T-Pose Infected SMG4, SMG4: There's Something Up With Meggy... when she chases Mario and Luigi and screams "What's up, b*tches!", and SMG4: Meggy's Part-Time Job where she says "Ah, sh*t, here we go again." when her second customer was a Demon Eye, in SMG4 - The Resurrection, where she says "Ayy none of that sh*t" before attacking a monster, and in SMG4: Studying for Exams...But you're friends with Mario, where she says f*ck while drinking energy drinks. These instances are rare and more recent, perhaps due to her picking up habits unintentionally from Mario and the others since they swear multiple times in one episode.
  • In Meggy Answers Your Questions..., Meggy reveals her age to be 19 as of the video's release and states that she was 15 when she met Mario. This is consistent with the lore of Splatoon, in which the Inklings who compete in Turf Wars as generally around 14 years old as this is the age at which they gain full control over their squid and humanoid forms. Before Meggy's age was revealed, several allusions to it were made:
    • In Can He Guess Our SMG4 Characters!? (Akinator), Luke and Kevin Lerdwichagul played Akinator and when the program asked if Meggy was above 18 years of age, the two paused and stated they didn't know.
    • The Hobo Theatre episode "SMG3 Prepares for WotFI 2020" implies she is under 18 years of age, as Luke threatened to call To Catch A Predator host Chris Hansen after Kevin touched Meggy inappropriately and stated that he will be incarcerated for it.
    • She has been referred to by terms suggesting that she is young, such as "loli" by Shroomy in SMG4: Mario School Club, a Toad in SMG4: Mario The Supreme Leader, and Rob the Scarecrow in SMG4: Food Wars, and "kiddo" by Mr. Monitor in SMG4: Officer Meggy.
    • In a Hobo Bros. video in which Luke and Kevin read Meggy's wiki page, Kevin stated that her age is unknown and that it will be kept this way. At the end of the video, Luke almost announces her age, but the video is cut off.
  • Meggy did not know what Christmas was until SMG4 Christmas 2017: The XMAS Discovery due to not celebrating it in Inkopolis. In the Splatoon games, Inklings celebrate a spoof of Christmas known as "Squidmas".
  • Meggy has only been seen cooking successfully in SMG4: War Of The Fat Italians 2020, in which she uses a flamethrower to cook a chicken with Melony's guidance. According to Meggy Answers Your Questions..., her bad cooking is a result of her only eating instant noodles for most of her life.
  • Unlike most of the people subjected to the T-pose virus, who seemed to lose consciousness as shown by Bowser saying "What happened?" and SMG4 asking "What's going on?" at the end of SMG4: Mario And The T-Pose Virus, showing that they had no recollection of the past several minutes when the virus was active, Meggy appeared to have some degree of consciousness, albeit perhaps very limited, while she was a T-pose zombie, as betrayed by the fact that her expression changed slightly and she shed a single tear when Tari hugged her and cried rather than attacking her mindlessly like the others would in SMG4: Mario and the Waluigi Apocalypse and how at the end of the first T-pose plague she said "that was weird", perhaps suggesting that she was aware enough to realize that being a T-pose zombie was weird. This could perhaps be due to her having higher intelligence and being much less brain-dead under normal circumstances than the majority of the other characters.
  • Despite being on several of its video thumbnails, Meggy does not appear in any of the videos on The Awesome Mario channel.
  • As an Inkling, Meggy had an inability to swim due to dissolving in water (like Inklings do in Splatoon), as shown in SMG4: Stupid Mario Sports Mix; however, this episode also shows her using an inner tube to float in the water, with her legs being unharmed despite being submerged. This is contradicted in SMG4: Super Challenge 64, in which Meggy's hand is acidified to bone (despite Inklings canonically having no bones in Splatoon) immediately after contact with water.
  • After the release of SMG4: The Splatfest Incident, Meggy's face on SMG4's channel banner was burnt off, leaving a white void. She was removed from the banner entirely (along with Luigi and Bob) after the release of SMG4: Final Hours, and her human form made its first banner appearance in the version that was used upon the channel's rename to SMG4 // Glitch Productions (as well as briefly after the release of SMG4: War Of The Fat Italians 2020).
