Yveltal's appearance is based on an avian in the shape of the letter Y. It may be based on the giant {{wp|Hræsvelgr}}, or "Corpse Swallower," which takes the form of an eagle and sits at the end of the world, creating wind as it flaps its wings. It may also be based on the {{wp|Veðrfölnir and eagle|unnamed eagle}} that, according to the {{wp|Poetic Edda}}, resided at the top of the world tree {{wp|Yggdrasil}}. It may also be based on the {{wp|Wyvern}}.
