Eiscue seems to be based on a {{wp|penguin}} with an {{wp|ice cube}} for a head. It may also draw inspiration from the {{wp|great auk}}, a {{wp|flightless bird}} that used to inhabit the {{wp|British Islands}} before their extinction. Great auks were known for floating with their heads exposed above water and were hunted to be used as fish bait. Their heads would get whiter during winters. | Eiscue seems to be based on a {{wp|penguin}} with an {{wp|ice cube}} for a head.

It may also be based on {{wp|fishing lure}}s, given its Pokedex entries, and how the great auk, a bird it may be based on, was hunted for fish bait. | |||
