Like the professors found in every generation of Pokémon, from Professor Oak to Professor Sonia, Sada takes up the mantle as the professor archetype in Pokémon Scarlet. She’s one of the most notable faculty members at Naranja Academy, at which the trainer is enrolled.

Additionally, Sada is a researcher investigating the overall lore of the Paldea region. In particular, she’s looking into the effects of the Terastal phenomenon and the ways it affects Pokémon when it causes them to temporarily transform.

As mentioned above, Professor Sada is exclusive to Pokémon Scarlet. Her husband, Professor Turo, is her counterpart found exclusively in Pokémon Violet.

Because the characters perform similar functions in either game, Professor Turo has a similar background and motivation to his wife. He’s also a member of the faculty at Naranja Academy and is interested in both the Terastal phenomenon and the history of the Paldea region.

The similarities are undeniable as far as their functions are concerned, but it’s a treat for players to be given the option to decide which professor they’d prefer to interact with through the version of the game they decide to buy.

Sada and Turo also have a son named Arven, who players will regularly interact with as they progress through the game’s primary storyline. This is depicted by the half-and-half coloration of his hairstyle, representing each parent.
