Lumineon seems to be based on a {{wp|butterflyfish}}, but it also possesses wings based on actual {{wp|butterfly|butterflies}}, something the butterflyfish does not. In its Platinum Pokédex entry, it is stated to walk on the seafloor using its fins, similar to a {{wp|tripod fish}}. It exhibits {{wp|bioluminescence}} according to its Diamond, HeartGold, and SoulSilver Pokédex entries, suggesting a possible inspiration in fish with this ability such as the {{wp|marine hatchetfish}}. Its {{wp|iridescent}} appearance and long fins also share some resemblance to a {{wp|Siamese fighting fish}}. Its name suggests it may be based on the {{wp|neon tetra}}. | Lumineon seems to be based on a {{wp|freshwater butterflyfish}}, but it also possesses wings based on actual {{wp|butterfly|butterflies}}, something the butterflyfish does not.
