XOpponents who stare at the flashing of the light-emitting spots on its body become dazed and lose their will to fight.
YIt flashes the light-emitting spots on its body, which drains its opponent’s will to fight. It takes the opportunity to scuttle away and hide.
UltraSunIt draws prey near with its blinking lights and then wraps them up in its long tentacles and holds them in place.
UltraMoonWhen exchanging information with others of its kind, it flashes the light-emitting spots on its body in a complex rhythm.
SwordIt spins while making its luminescent spots flash. These spots allow it to communicate with others by using different patterns of light.
ShieldBy exposing foes to the blinking of its luminescent spots, Inkay demoralizes them, and then it seizes the chance to flee.
