A cyclone is not necessarily restricted to the Pacific Ocean. Cyclones are also often formed and found in the Indian Ocean, northwest of Australia.
'Cyclone' is the generic term for cyclones, hurricanes and typhoons. These tropical storms tend to be called 'cyclones' in the Southern Hemisphere, and they rotate in a clockwise direction. In the northern hemisphere, where cyclones occur in the Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean, they are called hurricanes and those in the South China Sea and regions of Asia are called typhoons. Northern hemisphere cyclones rotate anti-clockwise.

Hurricane and Cyclone. Typhoon is the name given in the western part of the North Pacific Ocean, Cyclone is the name given in in the southwestern Pacific Ocean or Indian Ocean and Hurricane is the name given in the equatorial regions of the Atlantic Ocean or Caribbean Sea or eastern regions of the Pacific Ocean - to the same weather event.

A tropical cyclone:Called a Hurricane, Typhoon, or Cyclone - depending on where it occurs. .A hurricane is a storm that occurs in the Atlantic Ocean and northeastern Pacific Ocean.A typhoon occurs in the northwestern Pacific Ocean.A cyclone occurs in the south Pacific or Indian Ocean.
Tropical storms/depressions have different names in every ocean. Typhoon is a storm which occurs in Pacific Ocean. Hurricane is an Atlantic one and Cyclone ravages in Indian ocean.
That depends on where it is. If it is in the Pacific it is a Typhoon. If it is in the Indian Ocean it is called a tropical cyclone, or a severe cyclonic storm.

There are common near Japan, but Japan is nowhere near the Atlantic ocean, it borders the Pacific. Additionally, the word Typhoon only refers to a tropical cyclone in the western Pacific ocean. Such a storm in the Atlantic is called a hurricane.

A tropical cyclone:Called a Hurricane, Typhoon, or Cyclone - depending on where it occurs. .A hurricane is a storm that occurs in the Atlantic Ocean and northeastern Pacific Ocean.A typhoon occurs in the northwestern Pacific Ocean.A cyclone occurs in the south Pacific or Indian Ocean.
A hurricane, by definition, occurs over the Atlantic Ocean or the Eastern Pacific. The same type of storm in other regions goes by other names, such as typhoon or cyclone.
This is because of somewhat tricky terminology. The term hurricane applies to a certain type of storm that occurs in the north hemisphere in the Atlantic Ocean or eastern Pacific Ocean, which is in the general vicinity of the U.S. The same type of storm occurring in different parts of the world goes by different names such as typhoon, cyclone, or tropical cyclone.
