In Shigeru Mizuki's yokai encyclopedia, Grimalkin was introduced both as a witch's transformation or a Bake-Neko. As a witch's transformation, Grimalkin has a limit for the number of transformations she performs; the number of tails increases per transformation, however when she transformes for nine times, she won't be able to transform again.[1]

Grimalkin's illustration in yokai encyclopedia had also been used for Koikebaba (小池婆, small pond/Koike (surname) old woman), a type of female Bake-Neko.
