I used to be an adventurer-octopus like you, but then I took a sea urchin to the tentacle.

Octopodes* plural of octopus (octo is Greek root, odes is Greek root plural)
Go ahead and negative this comment, same as last time a marine biologist called bullshit on a Maine biology comic needing some correction.

Although dictionaries will show words that significant parts of the population say are wrong, I’m still going to say octopuses is also correct because octopus is an English word and English usually pluralises like that
Octopusen is not common since octopus is too new to get that style of English plural

Fun fact, if I’m not mistaken many octopuses can not just change color, but also change shape to mimic their environment. In other words, an octopus trying to mimic a brick would not just take on the texture of the brick, but also the shape.

All they have bone wise is a beak. Whatever can fit their beak they can also fit through.
