So you would need do do:

dig 118.18-31.82.119.85.in-addr.arpa ptr @dnsip

to get a correct result you have to ask the dns at the provider and there you 
get back a cname pointing to your entry,.

Yes, the "delegation" is a magic CNAME record:

$ dig @8.8.8.8 +trace -x 85.119.82.118

...

118.82.119.85.in-addr.arpa. 86400 IN    CNAME 118.118-32.82.119.85.in-addr.arpa.
118-32.82.119.85.in-addr.arpa. 86400 IN    NS ns2.abominable.org.uk.
118-32.82.119.85.in-addr.arpa. 86400 IN    NS ns1.abominable.org.uk.

And therefore *in this particular example* you create the zone "118-32.82.119.85.in-addr.arpa" and create PTR record "118" within it.
