Xerneas, Yveltal, and Zygarde are based around Yggdrasil of Norse mythology. Xerneas is Eikþyrnir who lives under the life tree, Yveltal is Hraesvelgr who represents death, and Zygarde is the underground Nidhogg. Xerneas shares its life, Yveltal takes the lives of others to replenish its own, and Zygarde works to maintain the natural balance of the life-death cycle.
RESHIRAM, ZEKROM, AND KYUREM FROM GENERATION 5
Reshiram and Zekrom represent Truth vs Ideals, and the Tao philosophy of Yin/Yang. While Kyurem is the grey area in morality, a hollow shell left behind by the singular Dragon these three once used to be before humans tried using it for what they perceived to be “right”, when in reality it was just differing perspectives.
PALKIA, DIALGA, GIRATINA, AND ARCEUS FROM GENERATION 4
Dialga and Palkia are the Shinto legend inspired, godlike entities responsible for guarding and creating space and time. They come from a more scientific approach to how the universe works/was created, whereas Arceus and Giratina are more spiritual as they are designed with inspirations from various versions of “God” and “Satan” in dozens of different religions around the world.
GROUDON, KYOGRE, AND RAYQUAZA FROM GENERATION 3
Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza are modelled after the biblical beasts; The Behemoth, Leviathan, and Ziz. Groudon created the land, Kyogre rules the seas, and Rayquaza guards the skies. Groudon and Kyogre helped shape the world (Alpha) and often nearly end the world in conflict with each other (Omega). Rayquaza acts as a neutralizing force to aid the world and its people.
HO-OH AND LUGIA FROM GENERATION 2
Ho-Oh has clear inspirations from various fire-birds in different legends from various cultures like the Phoenix, Fenghuang, and the Huma Bird, as it is associated with the power to revive itself and others from ashes, bring eternal happiness, and rainbow iconography. Lugia could be considered similar to the sea-dwelling dragon, Ryujin of Shinto myth, and he has subtle elements that seem similar to a beluga whale.

“THE CROSSOVER SUCKED! THEY EXAGGERATED THE CHARACTERS EMOTIONS AND MADE PEARL LOOK RIDICULOUS!! THEY MADE FUN OF ROSE!! THIS IS SO PROBLEMATIC PEOPLE SHOULDN’T LIKE THIS”
They knewexactly who was going to be watching the episode and they wanted to make sure that all the fandom wankers would be able to read their message, “y’all need to chill, we’re having fun and you should too!”. Everyone who “boycotted” this episode needs to watch and realize how silly they were being.
They also literally poke fun at the fandom too! Saying this episode isn’t canon, “ships” were sunk, Garnet wanted the “episode to be over now”, etc. I was grinning and chuckling a mile a minute. Good job Steven Crew and UG Crew.
I saw this earlier, and thought you were completely crazy, and it was just a lizard. Then I looked closely for a solid few minutes, and well, I’ve been dead from the shock for hours.
