That said, given how quick she is to defend Marina even immediately after learning this, arguments can still be made toward her inner kindness. This interpretation was partially invalidated by Octo Expansion: Pearl initially had no idea that Marina was an Octoling, only finding out during the events of the expansion, so she most likely played little intentional part in Marina's shift to Inkling society. They argue that Pearl happily befriended a member of the Inklings' collective Arch-Enemy because she was just that cool, and this kindness is part of what influenced Marina to become a Token Heroic Orc (the other part being the Squid Sisters' song). Her defenders argue that she's an All-Loving Hero with a heart of gold (occasional snark due to the duo's Vitriolic Best Buds dynamic aside), with their proof being that her best friend, Marina, is an Octoling. Defenders of Pearl suggest a different interpretation than the monster her detractors see her.It can be argued, however, that the Inklings simply don't know about the brainwashing. Cuttlefish knowing Octavio from the war, as seen in the first game's Sunken Scroll, doesn't help. The Octarians already had sympathetic viewpoints in the first game, but an interview about the first game stating that their stage music was meant to feel like they were being mind-controlled, as well as canonical evidence of brainwashing in Callie's hypno-shades, led people to see them as victims and the Inklings, Cuttlefish in particular, as callous.A species with innocent intentions but heavily misplaced morals, or a self-centered race who has no qualms stealing the unborn babies of another innocent species and dooming another to an underground, collapsing civilization while also possibly erasing them from history? Or are the Salmonids so utterly monstrous, violent and barbaric that it's a moot point anyway? There's also the fact that the non-golden eggs are identical to the power-up eggs seen in Single-Player Mode.
