→Origin: I have included some more information in relation to Diancie’s mega form. I would personally include Precure as a comparison largely because of how vague the comparison would be while giving a good range to factor in, I will allow current mods to give a stance on that inclusion.

Diancie could be based on the {{wp|Carbuncle (legendary creature)|carbuncle}}, a mythical fairy-like creature that was rumored to have a {{wp|Carbuncle (gemstone)|jewel}} embedded on its forehead. Diancie could also be a visual pun derived from the idea of a "{{wp|princess cut}}" diamond, referring to its princess-like appearance, although the diamond on the forehead resembles a {{wp|Brilliant (diamond cut)|brilliant cut}} in its base form and a heart cut in its Mega Evolved form. Its relationship with Carbink may be inspired by {{wp|eusociality}}, a biological phenomenon which usually manifests in a colony of animals having a sole breeding female, or queen, tended to by her usually infertile offspring; or an example of a highly rare and unique {{wp|mutations}} such as {{wp|albinism}} or {{wp|polydactyly}}. Alternatively, the transformation from Carbink to Diancie could reference {{wp|metamorphic rock}} formation. | Diancie could be based on the {{wp|Carbuncle (legendary creature)|carbuncle}}, a mythical fairy-like creature that was rumored to have a {{wp|Carbuncle (gemstone)|jewel}} embedded on its forehead.

Diancie, and its Mega Form, could possibly be analogous to various depictions of magical girls across various series. Mega Diancie in particular, being a powered up form, could potentially be compared to a typical magical girl transformation or a powered up super forms often seen in various properties. | ||
