The result of the move request was: not moved. Participants felt that the current titles are more appropriate, since RS often discuss the characters as individuals rather than just as members of their fictional idol group.

– I request this move based on two rationales. First off, these two pages largely concern fictional idol groups and their performances as a whole, rather than a simple collection of unrelated characters. In the series, the groups act as a mascot of each titles (Squid Sisters for Splatoon and Off the Hook for Splatoon 2) with a huge emphasis on their activities together. So it seems the idol groups as article title makes the topic clearer.
The second point is that Nintendo itself prefers referring to the idols this way officially. To name a few:
There were a few attempts to move Pearl and Marina to Off the Hook (Splatoon) with one revert citing WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. Given the official sources above and news outlets following the suit, however, it's clear "Squid Sisters" and "Off the Hook" are the primary names.
