===Origin===
===Origin===
Because of it's feline appearance, Espeon appears to be based on the legend of the Japanese mythological creature, the {{wp|Bakeneko}} and the {{wp|Nekomata}}, which are mysterious, intelligent, fork-tailed goblin cats. The orb on it's forehead shares similar traits to that of the {{wp|Carbuncle (mythology)|carbuncle}}, a Latin-American mythological beast which had a jewel on its forehead. The red coloring of the jewel could be a reference to a lunar eclipse, an event in which the moon passes directly behind Earth and into its shadow, making it appear red in color. Its large ears can be traced within {{wp|caracal}}s, {{wp|sphynx cat}}s, and {{wp|lynx}}es. Inspiration of the pink-purple coloring of its fur can be drawn from sphynx cats as well.

Espeon's ability of its sensitive fur allowing it to sense minute shifts in the air and predicting the weather, mirrors the cat's ability of utilizing its sensitive whiskers to detecting the slightest directional change in a breeze.

Espeon is a combination of ''{{wp|extra-sensory perception|ESP}}'' (a branch of psychic abilities) and ''eon'' (an immeasurably long period of time, possibly referring to how long evolution takes naturally). ''Eon'' is a suffix all {{p|Eevee}} [[evolution]]s share and was Eevee's English prototype name.
