Pokédex entries
| Sword | Through its nose, it sucks in the emanations produced by people and Pokémon when they feel annoyed. It thrives off this negative energy. |
|---|---|
| Shield | It sneaks into people’s homes, stealing things and feasting on the negative energy of the frustrated occupants. |
| Scarlet | The reason this Pokémon causes trouble for those it feels close to is because Impidimp itself gets irritable if it can’t absorb negative emotions. |
| Violet | They live in groups, pestering and playing pranks on each other to polish their troublemaking skills. |
