Beheeyem seems to be based on {{wp|grey alien|greys}}, one of the more popular kinds of {{wp|extraterrestrial life|alien}}. Judging from {{p|Elgyem}}'s [[Pokédex]] entry, they may also be based on the {{wp|Area 51}} {{wp|Area 51#UFO and other conspiracy theories|alien conspiracy theories}} or the {{wp|Roswell UFO incident|Roswell incident}}. Additionally, Beheeyem's design resembles a person wearing a hat and trench-coat and is likely based on stereotypical spies, shady figures, "{{wp|Men in Black}}", or government agents in connection with alien sightings. The colored fingers on its hands resemble the colorful faces of the invaders in the {{wp|The War of the Worlds (1953 film)|1953 ''War of the Worlds'' film}}; the aliens in the film had green, blue and red dots just like Beheeyem's {{Shiny}} coloration. | Beheeyem seems to be based on {{wp|grey alien|greys}}, one of the more popular kinds of {{wp|extraterrestrial life|alien}}.

The flashing patterns of its fingers may have been inspired by the 1977 sci-fi film ''{{wp|Close Encounters of the Third Kind}}'', particularly the iconic scene where flashing color and sound patterns are used to communicate with the alien mothership. Its rock-like design may reference Japanese ''{{wp|Dogū}}'' statues, which have often been confused for alien artifacts. Considering its species names, physical appearance, and powers, it may also be based on a {{wp|brain}}. | The flashing patterns of its fingers may have been inspired by the 1977 sci-fi film ''{{wp|Close Encounters of the Third Kind}}'', particularly the iconic scene where flashing color and sound patterns are used to communicate with the alien mothership.
