This Aipom appears in the Alamos Town garden within "Pokémon: The Rise of Darkrai." It joins Pokémon like Piplup and Pachirisu in a scuffle over Pecha Berries growing on a tree. During the conflict, Aipom deftly swipes one of the Berries using its flexible tail. The escalating tension among the Pokémon subsides when Alice plays a calming melody on her leaf whistle. Prompted by the soothing sound, Aipom shares its Berry with Shinx and Piplup.

The depiction reflects the species' documented traits: a mischievous, tree-dwelling Pokémon with a purple body and cream-colored facial features. Its defining characteristic is a highly dexterous tail ending in a hand-like appendage, stronger and more agile than its actual hands, which have become clumsy from lack of use. Aipom typically inhabits forest canopies, employing its tail for movement, foraging, and manipulating objects, with Bounsweet noted as its preferred food source in the Alola region.
