Necrozma could be based on the concept of {{wp|prism}}s and {{wp|light refraction}}. It may also incorporate similarities, both literal and symbolic, to {{wp|black dwarf}}s, {{wp|black hole}}s, or {{wp|neutron star}}s. | Necrozma could be based on the concept of {{wp|prism}}s and {{wp|light refraction}}.

Necrozma's Dusk Mane and Dawn Wings forms may be based on the concept of {{wp|Solar eclipse|solar}} and {{wp|lunar eclipse}}s. The forms' alternate names in Japanese, 日食 ''nisshoku'' (solar eclipse) and 月食 ''gesshoku'' (lunar eclipse) can also be literally translated as "eating the sun/moon", reflecting how Necrozma absorbs Solgaleo or Lunala to assume those forms. | Necrozma's Dusk Mane and Dawn Wings forms may be based on the concept of {{wp|Solar eclipse|solar}} and {{wp|lunar eclipse}}s, respectively.
