Sonia

Sonia is a character that was introduced in Generation VIII. She is the granddaughter and assistant of Professor Magnolia, but later takes her place as the Galar region's professor. She is also Leon's childhood friend and rival. Sonia is a slender young woman with fair skin, ginger hair in a large ponytail, and turquoise eyes. She wears a tan-colored trench coat with four buttons, a teal blouse, and light blue skinny jeans. For accessories, she wears a watch on her right hand, orange sunglasses, a black purse with a white heart, and four white heart-shaped hair decorations. On her feet, she wears black and turquoise high-heeled boots with white hearts. She also wears turquoise acrylic nails. After succeeding her grandmother's place as a professor, Sonia wears a white lab coat that she receives from her grandmother. She keeps the coat open, which reveals that her blouse is actually a crop top (thus showing off some of her belly as a result). Helpful and knowledgeable, Sonia provides practical advice to aid the player character on their journey. While she's a big sweetheart and is very friendly, she often gets exasperated by Leon's antics, especially his tendency to keep his head in the clouds. She also isn't afraid to speak her mind, as shown when she berates Sordward and Shielbert later on in the game. However, although she mostly has a mature exterior, Sonia actually doesn't mind acting childishly to those who are younger than her.
