### How to Participate
When you join this year’s Splatoween, you must select your favorite spooky friend: **Zombie, Skeleton, or Ghost**. After making your choice, you’ll receive a themed t-shirt representing your team. Wearing the t-shirt allows you to earn valuable skills during the Splatfest.
The t-shirt can be reset for skills at a low cost, making it a great way to farm ability chunks efficiently. Keep in mind, the Splatfest t-shirt will be **removed from your inventory when the event ends**.

### Leveling Up Your Catalog
In addition to collecting skills, you’ll also be leveling up your **Catalog** throughout the event. The Catalog progress is a key factor considered when determining the winning team.
– The Catalog helps you earn **Conch Shells**
– Conch Shells increase your overall **Clout**
– Clout is important in multiple battle types including **Votes, Clout Open, Clout Pro, and Tricolor Battle**
The higher your Catalog level, the more resources you can earn to boost your standing!
