Etymology[]

The name Sophocles comes from "Sophora", a genus of trees and shrubs.

His Japanese name, Māmane, could come from 麻痺 (mahi, paralysis, which is often inflicted by Electric-type moves) and māmane (the Hawaiian name for the Sophora chrysophylla, a plant that is part of the Sophora genus).

Biography[]

Sun and Moon[]

Sophocles is the fifth Trial Captain and he is on Ula'ula Island. One has to go through a Pokémon sound test first with him before facing Totem Vikavolt. After that, he smiles and gives the Electruim Z after completing his trial. He is also Molayne's cousin, and the boss of Festival Plaza.

He, along with all the other Trial Captains and Kahunas, comes to the party celebrated by the player character for becoming a Champion. He is the first person to challenge the player character, if they battle the Elite Four a second time.
