Briar

Briar is a recurring character in the Pokémon anime series Pokémon Horizons: The Series. She is a teacher at Blueberry Academy and a passionate researcher specializing in the Terastal phenomenon (also known as Terastallization).

In the anime, she is portrayed as an enthusiastic, ecstatic, and highly curious woman who gets extremely excited about discoveries related to her field of study—particularly anything connected to Area Zero, the Great Crater of Paldea, and ancient history tied to her ancestor, the explorer Heath. She possesses deep knowledge of historical records like the Scarlet/Violet Book and shows great interest in rare Pokémon like Terapagos.

She interacts with the main cast (such as Liko, Roy, Dot, and Friede) in episodes involving explorations, Terapagos-related events, and ventures into dangerous areas like Area Zero, often driven by her eagerness to uncover more about her ancestor's findings and the mysteries of Paldea.
