Dimmy

is a Rank E Wind-attribute Yo-kai of the Shady tribe.

The Yo-kai Medallium bio reads; "Being Inspirited by Dimmy will tone down your presence. Dimmy uses this for his job as a ninja  . ''

Dimmy evolves into Blandon starting at level 24.

Appearance
Dimmy is a ninja yokai. His body is simple, a rectangular figure with a tail instead of legs. His yellow eyes are clear from what appears to be a face hole or mask, which is roofed by what appears to be a metal head band. The rest of his body is a solid purple. He has a sword on his back. He has big hands and long arms as well. He looks like he is coming out of his shadow.

In Yo-kai Watch 2: Fleshy Souls, an alternate appearance of Dimmy can be found, which has a oval placed on his metal headband. This Dimmy has the skill Wavy Body instead of Secrecy.

Personality
Dimmy has an excessively passive personality, often expressing a wish to stay out of everything and everyone's way.

Abilities and Powers
In the games, Dimmy causes the Inspirited victim to become completely unnoticed by others around them, even if the victim is directly next to people.

In the anime, Dimmy's possession has a different effect: the Inspirited victim takes on a dispirited appearance with hollow eyes and mouth, and even their physical appearance becomes slightly grey and discolored. They begin to exhibit the same behavior as Dimmy, wishing to be left alone and refusing to do anything asked of them, desiring to stay out of everyone's way. A variant happens to Dazzabel, who although becomes grey, the only thing that seems to happen to her is that her bow falls off, since this Yo-kai lacks eyeballs.

Yo-kai Watch
Dimmy appears in the Catwalk, the Desolate Lane, and under vending machines and cars everywhere in Uptown Springdale.

Anime
Dimmy first makes his appearance in episode 14, when he has possessed Jibanyan. Nathan and Whisper notice the change in Jibanyan's behavior, but don't realize he's possessed. Later, they have trouble with Dazzabel, who has possessed Nate's mother. While his mother is on her way to school, Whisper then reveals that Dimmy was their best chance of defeating Dazzabel and saving Nate from humilitation. It was then that they realize that Jibanyan was possessed by Dimmy, so Nathan summons Jibanyan to get Dimmy. Unfortunately, Dimmy possesses Nathan as he is summoned by proxy of Jibanyan, leaving Dimmy, Nathan and Jibanyan despondent and unwilling to interfere with Dazzabel. Whisper ends up forcibly pushing Dimmy towards Dazzabel, which causes his greying effect to affect her and her bow to fall off. This change in Dazzabel upsets her so much, her possession is dispelled and her Yo-kai Medal falls out. Dimmy decides to timidly offer Nate his Yo-kai Medal as well.

Origin
