Editing Syn Shenron (section)

== Trivia ==

* '''Name Origin''': Syn Shenron's name is derived from the word "sin," reflecting his evil nature and connection to negative energy. His powered-up form, Omega Shenron, takes its name from "omega," the final letter of the Greek alphabet, symbolizing "last" or "final." This fits as Omega Shenron is the final opponent Goku faces in ''Dragon Ball GT''.
* '''Symbolism''': Syn/Omega Shenron's negative energy threatens to destroy the entire universe, but the universe ultimately empowers Goku to defeat him. His battle is the last chronologically shown on screen in the series.
* '''Physical Traits''': Omega Shenron has purple blood, similar to most Namekians, as seen when he bleeds after being hit by Gogeta.
* '''Association with the One-Star Dragon Ball''': Syn/Omega Shenron is linked to the One-Star Dragon Ball, which was also associated with Emperor Pilaf, the first major antagonist in the ''Dragon Ball'' series. Pilaf inadvertently sets the events of ''Dragon Ball GT'' in motion.
* '''Gogeta's Big Bang Kamehameha''': When Gogeta uses Big Bang Kamehameha on Omega Shenron, Omega loses all the Dragon Balls except the One-Star Ball but continues to call himself "Omega Shenron" and retains his voice in the English dub.
* '''Video Game Dialogue''':
** In ''Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 3'', Goten jokingly wishes for candy, to which Omega Shenron replies, "I don't grant wishes for Candy!"
** In ''Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3'', Nuova Shenron calls Syn Shenron "Omega Shenron" during their battle, despite not having seen Syn Shenron's form until after he became Omega.
* '''Kajika Resemblance''': After drinking Dragomin-rich blood from a newborn dragon, [[Gibachi]], the main antagonist in Akira Toriyama's 1998 manga ''Kajika'', bears a resemblance to Syn Shenron in his Dragon-man form.
* '''Xenoverse Connections''':
** In ''Dragon Ball Xenoverse'', Omega Shenron has special dialogue with Frieza, where he thanks Frieza for the actions that led to Syn Shenron's creation. Frieza humorously suggests that he might be Syn Shenron's "mother" and considers making him a subordinate.
** Both Syn/Omega Shenron and Frieza share several characteristics: white skin, red irises, immense power, extreme evil, arrogance, enjoyment of destruction, and a mutual hatred of Saiyans.
** In ''Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2'', Omega Shenron retains his special dialogue with Frieza and gains new dialogue with Beerus. Omega questions Beerus' divinity, to which Beerus replies, asserting his role as the God of Destruction. Omega's lack of fear towards Beerus is ironic given Shenron's fear of him.
** Despite appearing only as Omega Shenron in ''Xenoverse'' and ''Xenoverse 2'', Super Saiyan 4 Goku refers to him as Syn Shenron in the localization.
* '''Voice Acting''': In the Funimation dub, Chris Sabat voices both Omega Shenron and the normal [[Shenron]], with their voices being nearly identical, except Omega's voice sounds more sinister.
* '''Dragon Ball Fusions''': In ''Dragon Ball Fusions'', members of [[Tekka]]'s team humorously describe Omega Shenron as resembling an "overstuffed catfish."
