Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameAhuzun-y
Planet typeWarm gas giant
It has the longest rotation period (445 days) of any planet in its solar system and rotates in the opposite direction to most other planets.

The planet telescopically displays the complete range of phases, similar to Venus and the Moon, as it moves in its inner orbit relative to WASP-59 A, which reoccurs over the so-called synodic period approximately every 122 days.

As seen from WASP-59 A, in a frame of reference that rotates with the orbital motion, it appears to rotate only once every two years.

A prominent result is the "great green spot", a giant storm that is known to have existed for centuries since it was first seen by telescope.
