Giant Squid

The Giant Squid is a large squid that appears in numerous games around Club Penguin such as Aqua Grabber and Puffle Rescue.

Aqua Grabber
The Giant Squid appears in the background of Aqua Grabber but does nothing of significance in the game. It is speculated, however, that this squid will make a larger appearance later in the game (perhaps in a level 3).

The squid is found in level one but it is very hard to find. When it does appear, the screen will start to shake, and then the squid will appear from behind a rock wall. It appears as a shadow because it is dark where it lives. It will then start to turn itself counterclockwise and stops when the top of its head is pointing to the left, and then it starts to make sounds. After a few seconds, it suddenly zooms away.

Puffle Rescue
In Puffle Rescue, the Giant Squid is the dark shadow that penguins must use to find the entrance to the Underwater Room. It appears in the Black Puffle level one when the penguin has rescued the black puffle but not taken it back to the start. It will swim by with a trail of bubbles and the penguin has to use those bubbles to go after the squid until it reaches a coral reef. On the reef the penguin can stop following it and go to a staircase which leads to the Underwater Room.

Email
Someone mailed Club Penguin about this "Giant Squid" and the answer was this:

"This giant creature of the deep sea that penguins spot sometimes is quite a mystery. No one is sure what it is, or where it comes from! Perhaps he is a friendly creature to all of us penguins, since he doesn't seem to bother us at all!"

Trivia

 * It originally had a startling noise to alert penguins of it's presence, but the sound was later removed due to small children being scared by it.
 * It appears the third time you play the first level of Aqua Grabber. However, there is a report of penguin Cia Agent9, who had completed the first level once and while diving down to get the Grand Pearl a second time, he encountered the squid. Looking for it at the time, he was able to snap a photo.
 * It is a Colossal Squid because Squids don't usually appear in cold water. Colossals can live in cold water like near Antarctica.
 * It was shown in a recent blog post along with Herbert and a puffle (same post as above). It could mean that there might be a Level 3 of Aqua Grabber.
 * It can also be spotted in the game Puffle Rescue in the first black puffle level, it is a lot larger than seen in Aqua Grabber, which might mean that there is more than one Giant Squid or it is closer to the penguin than in Aqua Grabber.
 * The Giant Squid in Puffle Rescue also swims a lot slower and gentler.
