>Sophocles doesn't have anything to do with the Greek playwright outside of being a smart guy. He's named after the endemic Hawaiian plant Sophora chrysophylla or Mamane. Sophocles is actually a combination of the scientific name of the species. Sopha + chrys. This is why his name in other languages is Mamane or Chris. Mamane is a plant that prefers growing in dryer areas of Hawaii. It does grow taller in wetter areas, but it's usually short in the dry, alpine, areas where it's the dominant tree up until the tree line. This likely influenced the characters short and portly design as well as placement at Hokulani Observatory. Mamane plants are also notable due to having seeds that are poisonous to birds. Bunches of dead introduced bird species can be found surrounding the base of trees due to consuming seeds. This likely influenced him being an electric type trainer due to the advantage against flying types, and the yellow color of mamane flowers.
