Welcome to the character overview for Pokemon Dark Worship 2. Here you’ll find detailed introductions to the key characters who shape your journey across the Sinnoh region, from trusted allies to dangerous foes.
Professor Rowan
Professor Rowan is the renowned Pokemon researcher of the Sinnoh region and serves as your main mentor throughout the game. He gives you your very first starter Pokemon and provides guidance as you progress through your adventure. Known for his strict yet caring personality, Rowan plays an important role in studying evolution, documenting rare Pokemon behavior, and steering you toward completing the Pokedex. He also supports you during major story events, offering advice and crucial information about Team Galactic and Team Dark Worship’s movements.
Protagonist (Male/Female)
The protagonist represents you, the player embarking on your dream journey across Sinnoh. Your goal is to defeat all eight Gym Leaders, challenge the Pokemon League, and ultimately rise to become the new Champion of the region. Along the way, you’ll meet new trainers, form powerful bonds with your Pokemon, and take part in countless battles that test your strength and determination.
Throughout your adventure, you’ll face rivals like Barry and the default rival, take part in special training battles with Dawn, and work to complete the Pokedex to support Professor Rowan’s research. You also confront both Team Dark Worship and Team Galactic, standing firm against their dangerous plans to protect the future of Sinnoh.
Default Rival
Your default rival begins their journey at the same time as you and competes with you from the very start. Both of you share the same goal — to become the Champion of Sinnoh — which naturally leads to several intense battles throughout the game. Despite the rivalry, he also proves to be helpful during certain missions and joins forces with you to fight against Team Dark Worship and Team Galactic when the situation becomes critical.
Rival Barry
Barry serves as your second rival in the story. Energetic, impatient, and always racing ahead, Barry challenges you several times during your travels, pushing you to grow stronger. He also assists you during major events in the storyline and remains one of your closest rivals and strongest allies as Sinnoh faces new threats.
Dawn
Dawn is Professor Rowan’s trusted assistant and one of the most helpful characters you will encounter. She appears throughout your adventure to deliver important items, relay Rowan’s messages, and teach you more about the basics of Pokemon training. Dawn also engages you in friendly battles to help sharpen your skills and prepare you for the dangers ahead. Her knowledge of Pokemon and her reliable support make her an essential part of your journey.
Joshua – Leader of Team Dark Worship
Joshua, the son of Izac, is the new and ambitious leader of Team Dark Worship. He has entered an unlikely alliance with Saturn and the remnants of Team Galactic, believing their combined forces will bring him closer to achieving his own dark ambitions. As one of the main antagonists, Joshua commands a large and dangerous organization, and he will confront you multiple times throughout the story. His determination and ruthless nature make him one of your greatest threats in the region.
Saturn – New Leader of Team Galactic
Following Cyrus’s disappearance into the Distortion World, Saturn has stepped up as the new leader of Team Galactic. Determined to uncover the secrets behind the legendary Pokemon Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, and Zygarde, Saturn joins forces with Team Dark Worship and Joshua. Together they seek to capture and exploit the powers of these legendary beings for their own mysterious and dangerous plans. As one of the major villains, Saturn’s cold focus and scientific curiosity make him a formidable enemy you must stand against.
