Aipom appears to be based on a {{wp|monkey}} and the exaggerated concept of a {{wp|prehensile tail}}. It may be specifically based on the {{wp|squirrel monkey}}, which is similar in appearance. Aipom also shares its large smile with a {{wp|cymbal-banging monkey toy}}. It is also similar to an {{wp|Ahuizotl (creature)|ahuizotl}}, a creature of Aztec mythology with monkey hands and a fifth human hand on its tail. | Aipom appears to be based on a {{wp|monkey}} and the exaggerated concept of a {{wp|prehensile tail}}.
