Medicham resembles a {{wp|primate}} of some sort, like its {{p|Meditite|pre-evolution.}} It appears to have been based on a practitioner of {{wp|yoga}}. It may have also been based on Arabian {{wp|belly dance}}rs, as its pants resemble traditional {{wp|bedlah}} pants and its headgear resembles a {{wp|shawl}}. One headpiece growth, the longest one, resembles a ponytail, which can be seen on Persian genies in most American fiction, such as Jeannie of ''{{wp|I Dream of Jeannie}}'', who also wear bedlahs. Like its predecessor [[Meditite]], Medicham looks like many {{wp|Hinduism|Hindu}} deities, most especially {{wp|Shiva}}, and {{wp|Ardhanari}}, a fusion of Shiva and his wife {{wp|Shakti}}. | Medicham resembles a {{wp|primate}} of some sort, like its {{p|Meditite|pre-evolution.}} It appears to have been based on a practitioner of {{wp|yoga}}.
