* Cipher has similar plans to [[Team Dim Sun]] in [[Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia]]. Both of them have an undercover boss playing a major role in the region ([[Blake Hall]] as President of Altru and [[Es Cade]] as Mayor of Phenac City), both build a tower as part of their plans ([[Altru Tower]] and [[Realgam Tower]]) and make Pokémon lose their memories ([[Gigaremo units]] and [[Shadow Pokémon]]). Also, they are final bosses of their respective games, and can be re-battled at will. | * Cipher has similar plans to [[Team Dim Sun]] in [[Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia]].

* Cipher also has similar plans to [[Team Rocket]]. Both either stole Pokémon personally or were otherwise involved in Pokémon theft, both had plans for world domination involving Pokémon, both leaders also had a respectable and unassuming position in the first city visited by the player (Giovanni was the Gym Leader of Viridian City, whereas Evice/Es Cade was the Mayor of Phenac City), and both ended up being revived a few years later by someone other than their [[Giovanni|original]] [[Evice|leaders]]. | * Cipher also has similar plans to [[Team Rocket]].

* Unlike other villain groups, Cipher is indicated to regularly use physical force on humans; during the kidnapping of [[Professor Krane]] and attack on the [[ONBS]], Trainers are found injured on the ground, mentioning they couldn't stop Cipher, and during the attack on [[Phenac City]], Cipher forces [[Justy]] to surrender by threatening hostages. In [[Pokémon Colosseum]], it is shown that [[Shadow Pokémon]] do not hesitate to attack humans, which is also one of the possible effects on Shadow Pokémon in [[Hyper Mode]]. | * Unlike other villain groups, Cipher is indicated to regularly use physical force on humans; during the kidnapping of [[Professor Krane]] and attack on the [[ONBS]], Trainers are found injured on the ground, mentioning they couldn't stop Cipher, and during the attack on [[Phenac City]], Cipher forces [[Justy]] to surrender by threatening hostages.
