Who is Jacq in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet? Answered

gamepur.com:

As with any Pokemon game, Pokemon Scarlet and Violet have a host of eccentric characters for you to meet on your journey. From helpful teachers to shy classmates and powerful gym leaders, there’s a colorful cast for you to get to know on your travels across Paldea. One such character is the well-insulated Jacq — here’s everything you need to know about him.

Jacq — or Mr Jacq, to give him his full title — is a teacher at the academy in Paldea where your character will be studying. He’s the homeroom teacher and a biology expert, offering plenty of sage advice about the biology of Pokemon. His love for and interest in Pokemon biology is so ingrained, in fact, that he’s the mastermind behind the Pokedex app for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet’s Rotom Phone — so if you’re looking to catch ’em all and file away plenty of Pokemon information for posterity, you have Jacq to thank. He may not even notice, though, since he reportedly has something of an airheaded personality and frequently gets engrossed in his research, to the exclusion of all else.

Jacq isn’t alone in the new roster of characters coming to Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. The Pokemon Professors Sada and Turo were among the first to be revealed, much to the delight of the fan-art community. There’s also Mr Clavell, the director of the academy, your student friends like Arven and Nemona, and gym leaders like the icy Grusha, to say nothing of the new Pokemon and even new variations of old favorites like the Paldean Wooper.
