Read more ↓Sordward and Shielbert are human characters introduced in the Pokémon Sword and Shield games, specifically during the Isle of Armor and Crown Tundra expansions. They are twin brothers who act as antagonists, claiming to be descendants of the Galar region's ancient kings. Their primary motivation is to restore the "true" glory of Galar by manipulating the legendary Pokémon Zacian and Zamazenta, often through questionable means, and attempting to remove the protagonist's influence. They are known for their distinctive, elaborate hairstyles resembling crowns and their flamboyant, somewhat arrogant personalities. While not Pokémon themselves, they play a significant role in the lore of the Galar region, representing a clash between tradition and modern understanding of history. Their actions drive key plot points, forcing players to confront their perspectives on heroism and legacy. They are often seen together, emphasizing their twin dynamic and shared goals, albeit with slightly differing temperaments; Sordward is generally the more assertive of the two.
