-His Japanese name, {{wp|Akagi}}, is a common surname in Japan, which may indicate that, like [[Giovanni]], his name in Japan is merely his last name, leaving his first unknown. "Akagi" means "red castle", "red tree", or "red future", the last of which may reference the many deaths that would have taken place if his scheme had come to fruition. It may also refer to the [[Red Chain]] which Cyrus needs to summon the Legendary Pokémon, {{p|Dialga}} and/or {{p|Palkia}}, at the [[Spear Pillar]]. It could also be in reference to Planet X, also known as the Red Planet, Nibiru, Wormwood, Quetzalcoatl, and many more names. It is an apocalyptic conspiracy, but there are many different theories about what exactly it is. There is also a volcano called Akagi in the real-world [[wp:Kantō region|Kanto region]] of Japan. The name may also reference the concept of a red sun, in particular, a red giant.
+The majority of Cyrus's localized names refer to the Sun; this fits in with the Commanders' planetary naming scheme and may be a reference to how Cyrus would figuratively hold the Sun's position as the center of his new world. The Korean and Chinese names contain both a reference to red, like the Japanese one and to the Sun, like the localized Western ones.
