No, the Regi Trio were not deliberately based on the iron/ice/stone ages. That's just a fan theory that happens to fit nicely.
No, Luxray is not a sphinx. Just because you were 12 and got confused by Shinx's name because you didn't know what a lynx was does not make it have literally anything to do with sphinxes.
No, Absol is not a sphinx either. You just don't know what he's actually based on so you assume sphinx. Just because he has a flat face does not mean Absol has a "human head", he has NOTHING in common with sphinxes and the connection does not deliberately exist.
No, Lucario is not intentionally based on Anubis, the similarity is coincidental and fans just tried to force this origin headcanon so hard that people started actually believing that's what he's based on. Lucario is just an abstract wolf creature with aura/chi powers and a heart of justice, he has precisely zero relation to Anubis despite the coincidental resemblance. No he is not a jackal.
No Porygon is not a bird. It's an abstract digital creature, it's not supposed to deliberately look like a bird. People just feel compelled to come up with something it must be based on, so they say bird.
Milotic is not an oarfish, this again is just people scrambling to come up with something it must be based on. Milotic is just a sea serpent, made pretty instead of vicious because it's the opposite of Gyarados. Legends of gentle, beautiful sea serpents who do not attack people are like an actual thing.
No Spinda is not a "red panda". It's a regular panda (and a little bit of rabbit thrown in there) with red spots. Those aren't the same animal at all.
