===Origin===
Magearna is likely based on a {{wp|karakuri puppet}} and a {{wp|rabbit}}. It also may be inspired by a {{wp|nursemaid}}, a young woman that would care and look after children within the community of a large household, having historically worked in medieval castles. The gear around Magearna's head also resembles a maid's headdress as well as its central body looking similar to the common wear for a maid, such as its arms looking like long, puffed sleeves and the black divide near the end of its "gown" bearing resemblance to the end of an apron. The rabbit ears and the yellow crescents on its body may refer to the {{wp|moon rabbit}} legend. Due to its head and ears resembling a rabbit, its body resembling that of a 19th century dress and it being a Fairy-type Pokemon, it may also be based on both {{wp|Alice (Alice's Adventures in Wonderland)|the titular character}} and {{wp|White Rabbit|the White Rabbit}} from the {{wp|Lewis Carroll}} novel {{wp|Alice's Adventures in Wonderland|Alice in Wonderland}}.
