So I'm required to watch princess mononoke for a class this semester, I've never seen it. So I was pretty intrigued when suddenly a deer think that have life and sprouted flowers at it's feet showed up. Seemed really familiar.
Is there any actually connection between this thing and Xerneas?
I've been looking for Myth or Lore about life giving stags/deer/elk but besides one randomy celtic god I'm not finding much.

There's some norse stuff with deer/stags iirc, keep an eye out for the term Hart as well since its used interchangeably in some cases.

4 stags live in the branches of Yggdrasil, Dáinn, Dvalinn, Duneyrr and Duraþrór they are named and they feed on the branches above.
There is also another stag, Eikþyrnir, who stands top Odin's Hall. Drops fall from his antlers into Hvergelmir: a great spring in Niflheim.

Does Xerneas have ties to Kirin at all?

I'm pretty sure bulbapedo also mentions everything that could have been used as basis for Xerneas. As for the shishigami thing:

It was a pretty interesting read but gave up midway as I haven't seen the movie and don't really have the urge to know that stuff.

Maybe, Xerneas is the life legendary and the qilin are peaceful creatures who punish the evil and do not harm living creatures. They're also a sign of fertility, life, like Xerneas.
