Ingo is a warden of the Pearl Clan in the Coronet Highlands in Hisui. He was a skilled and respected Pokémon trainer in Unova but was sent back in time through a space-time rift and has lost many memories of his former life in Unova. He has resting poker face and no indoor voice. Ingo has a secret. The rift changed him in other ways too; he can appear human but Ingo is now a yōkai; his true form is a Sneasler. As a Sneasler Ingo retains sapience while also being driven by biological imperative.
