Why Does the Name of the Galaxy Expedition Team sound like Team Galactic?

Before I had an account on Pokemon Forums I played Pokemon Legends: Arceus. It was definitely one of the best games, but I have to wonder, why is there the word galaxy in its name when the villain team of Sinnoh was called Team Galactic? I had expected to understand after I beat the game, but it still doesn't make sense to me.

    There's a scene in the game where Cyllene says she'll pass down the name and accomplishments of the Galaxy Team to all her descendents. Cyllene is implied to be Cyrus' ancestor.

    Also the game loves giving modern evil characters good ancestors or modern good characters not completely good ancestors (Like Cyllene and Cyrus or Kamado and Rowan), with some exceptions.

    Funny I saw this, I'm trying to find elemental types to role-play as gym leaders within a specific friends list. You are well to contact me for any interests.


    Hint : I am also one of the most lethal psychic players that don't use pokemon V or EX because they are singled out by too many conditions.

    They share the exact same name in Japanese.

    Copyright infringement. Team Galactic probably uses AI, too.
