Moltres seems to be based on the legends of {{wp|Firebird#Folklore|firebird}}s such as the {{wp|Phoenix (mythology)|phoenix}}, the {{wp|Firebird (Slavic folklore)|Slavic firebird}}, or the {{wp|Bennu}}. It may also be based on the {{wp|Vermilion Bird}} of the {{wp|Four Symbols|Chinese Four Symbols}}, which represents the element of fire and the direction of south. In addition, it may be based on a {{wp|heron}} because of their similarities in body shape. | Moltres seems to be based on the legends of {{wp|Firebird#Folklore|firebird}}s such as the {{wp|Phoenix (mythology)|phoenix}}, the {{wp|Firebird (Slavic folklore)|Slavic firebird}}, or the {{wp|Bennu}}.

As suggested by the Pokédex entries, the three legendary birds appear to be embodiments of {{wp|seasons}}, Moltres represents {{wp|spring}}, while {{p|Articuno}} and {{p|Zapdos}} represent {{wp|winter}} and {{wp|summer}} respectively. {{wp|Autumn}} is however unrepresented. | As suggested by the Pokédex entries, the three legendary birds appear to be embodiments of {{wp|seasons}}, Moltres represents {{wp|spring}}, while {{p|Articuno}} and {{p|Zapdos}} represent {{wp|winter}} and {{wp|summer}}, respectively. {{wp|Autumn}} is however unrepresented. | ||
Galarian Moltres appears to resemble a {{wp|cormorant}}. Its ability to make opponents fatigued with its aura may allude to {{wp|Occupational burnout|burnout}}, a psychological condition of which one of the main symptoms is exhaustion. Its {{Shiny}} coloration is similar to Kantonian Moltres's regular coloration. | Galarian Moltres appears to resemble a {{wp|cormorant}}.
