All new characters featured in Pokémon Sword and Shield & # 039; s The Isle of Armor and The Crown Tundra DLC

January 9 Pokémon Direct turned the tide giving fans anticipation for the future of Pokémon Sword and Shield. The Galar region has new faces that we have yet to meet in Pokémon Sword and Shield. These characters who do not appear in the base games will make their debut in the upcoming DLC ​​expansions which will be released in two parts. Here are the new characters that will appear in the Isle of Armor and The Crown Tundra DLC.

Mustard

Mustard will be the player's mentor during the campaign for the Isle of Armor. He also trained the Galarian champion Leon. He runs a dojo on the island and will train the player and his rivals. Mustard was also the previous Pokémon League Champion before being defeated by Leon.

Klara

Klara will be a Sword exclusive character in the DLC expansion as the player's sparring partner. She is a poison-type trainer who hopes to become a gym leader and own a stadium. She will eventually make an appearance in-game from the free update when you go to Wedgehurst Station.

Avery

For those with Shield, Avery will train with the player instead. She is a Psychic type user and similar to Klara, she hopes to have a gym stadium in the Galar region. Like Klara, she will instead appear in Shield at Wedgehurst Station.

These are all new characters revealed in the Pokémon Direct, but we may discover new characters in future updates.
