Inkay is a primarily blue squid-like Pokémon. It has a transparent mantle that resembles a hat with a pink "inner body" overlaid with yellow lights. Those who stare at those lights become dazed and lose their will to battle, allowing Inkay to escape. It has two tendril-like tentacles that hang from this "hat", similar to some styles of winter hats, and these tentacles hang next to its six short arms. Its eyes are round and have pupils, but no identifiable iris. Inkay also has a small, pink, beak-like mouth set between its eyes. It and its evolution, {{p|Malamar}} are the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning {{m|Topsy-Turvy}}.

* Inkay and {{p|Malamar}} have several unique attributes:

** In addition to Inkay's method of evolution into Malamar being unique, it would have been impossible in any of the previous [[core series]] Pokémon games since only the [[Nintendo 3DS]] has an internal {{wp|gyroscope}}.

** They are the only Pokémon in the {{egg3|Water 2}} that are not {{type|Water}}.

** They are the only Pokémon that can have the ability {{a|Contrary}} without it being their Hidden Ability.
