Mightyena's design appears to be based on a {{wp|hyena}} — possibly a {{wp|brown hyena}} — and also shares some similarities with {{wp|wolf|wolves}}. The design may have been influenced by domestic breeds of dogs such as the {{wp|German Shepherd}} and the {{wp|Australian Kelpie}}, a breed with personalities that are heavily influenced by their owners. German Shepherds are also commonly colored black and gray.
