===Origin===
===Origin===
Espathra appears to be based on an {{wp|ostrich}}. Based on its appearance and names in every language, it also seems to take inspiration from the Egyptian queen {{wp|Cleopatra}}. The connection between ostriches, psychic powers, and Egyptian motifs may ultimately reference {{wp|Maat}}, the personification of truth in ancient Egyptian mythology whose symbol was the ostrich feather. The feathers on Espathra's head may be inspired by a {{wp|nemes}} or a {{wp|mantilla}}. Its body plumage may be inspired by {{wp|Rococo}} fashion in the 17th century, which featured multilayered and frilled dresses for women. Cleopatra along with other historical figures used to be depicted in the contemporary fashion in late Renaissance and early-modern art. The shiny coloration of Espathra further refers to reimagined Egyptian costumes in modern media.

Espathra's psychic typing, based on its Egyptian visual motifs and signature move, Lumina Crash, may possibly be inspired by claims that extraterrestrial beings were involved in Egyptian history.
