Inkay first appeared in ''[[XY003|A Battle of Aerial Mobility!]]'' while {{TRT}} was dining at a café in [[Lumiose City]]. As Team Rocket were busy celebrating news from {{an|Giovanni}}, Inkay stole their food and proceeded to eat it from under their table. While Team Rocket were on their balloon, the same Inkay from before approached them when they dropped their sandwich and sprayed ink at them. After Team Rocket cleaned themselves off, James scanned the Inkay to get some details about him and the Team Rocket trio attempted to battle him with {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}}. However, James offered Inkay some food instead as bait. While Inkay was distracted, James threw a Poké Ball at him and caught him, much to the surprise of [[Jessie]] and {{MTR}}.

In ''[[XY105|Party Dancecapades!]]'', Inkay partnered up with [[Jessie's Gourgeist]] in a dance party hosted by [[Monsieur Pierre]]. Later, Inkay was used in a [[Multi Battle|Tag Battle]] along with [[Miette]]'s {{p|Slurpuff}}, where he faced Ash's Pikachu and [[Serena's Eevee]]. Inkay tried hitting Pikachu with Psybeam, but Pikachu dodged it and Inkay ended up getting hit by an {{m|Iron Tail}} from him. Inkay then used Psybeam on Pikachu and Eevee, which they dodged. This, however, allowed Slurpuff to trap them with {{m|Cotton Spore}}, giving Inkay the opportunity to hit them with another Psybeam. Inkay then headed towards Eevee using Tackle, but Pikachu stepped in and took the attack. After a collision between Eevee and Slurpuff's attacks, Inkay struck Eevee again with a Psybeam. After Eevee's [[Evolution|evolution]] into Sylveon, Sylveon easily dodged Inkay's Tackles and then defeated him and Slurpuff with {{m|Fairy Wind}}.

In ''[[XY107|An Explosive Operation!]]'', Inkay was used to protect {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Z2}} from [[Team Flare]]. Inkay used Psybeam to stop Team Flare's weapon from firing. Later, he fought Team Flare again along with Wobbuffet and Gourgeist. He managed to hit [[Mable]]'s {{p|Weavile}} with Psybeam, but was then struck by [[Aliana]]'s {{p|Druddigon}}'s {{m|Slash}}. He and Gourgeist were then defeated by the {{tc|Team Flare Grunt}}s' Pokémon's combined attacks.

When {{TRT}}, Serena, [[Mairin]] and [[Professor Sycamore]] infiltrated [[Lysandre Labs]] in [[XY134]], Inkay was sent out, alongside Gourgeist, to battle [[Celosia]]'s {{p|Drapion}}.
When Team Rocket, Serena, [[Mairin]], and [[Professor Sycamore]] infiltrated [[Lysandre Labs]] in ''[[XY134|The Right Hero for the Right Job!]]'', Inkay was sent out, alongside Gourgeist, to battle [[Celosia]]'s {{p|Drapion}}. Inkay was sent out in ''[[XY136|Forming a More Perfect Union!]]'' to fight the Megalith {{p|Zygarde}}, fending off its roots to clear the way for Ash and [[Alain]]. One of the roots, however, blasted Inkay and his Team members out of the helicopter, but they were saved by [[Diantha's Gardevoir]].
 
Following the Team Rocket trio's journey in [[Kalos]], James left Inkay at {{an|Team Rocket HQ}}.


==Personality and characteristics==
==Personality and characteristics==
Inkay appears to be a sneaky and mischievous Pokémon as he was seen stealing food from Team Rocket and then followed them in their balloon. He seems to love food and would often go out of his way to steal it, to the point of allowing James to use this to his advantage and capture it. This was shown again in ''[[XY049|Bonnie for the Defense!]]'' where he went out of his Poké Ball on his own just to eat Team Rocket's food. he is also shown to be thankful for the other Inkay and Malamar by helping them to stop the evil Malamar by being like a hero to them.

Inkay is also a powerful and resourceful battler, shown in ''[[XY008|Grooming Furfrou!]]'' and ''[[XY033|Calling from Beyond the Aura!]]''. He was able to beat [[Officer Jenny]]'s {{p|Manectric}} with ease and then prevented {{AP|Pikachu}} from attacking him by spraying him with ink in the former and easily knocked out {{TP|Clemont|Bunnelby}} with Tackle in the latter. He had no problem listening to his Trainer after he was caught.

In ''[[XY054|Facing the Grand Design!]]'', he was shown to have a strong bond with his Trainer similar to that of {{Ash}} and his Pikachu. In fact, it was so strong that James was able to break him free of Malamar's {{m|Hypnosis}}. He was also shown to have a great relationship with Team Rocket, wanting to protect them from the evil Malamar and avenge them for being controlled by them previously. Ever since his previous encounter with the evil Malamar, Inkay has formed a deep grudge against it and sworn to get his revenge and stop it from fulfilling its dark plans of destroying the world.
