It's been announced the Isle of Man is set to feature in a Pokémon game.

Two brand new areas are being introduced for players as part of the Pokémon 'Sword Shield Expansion Pass' - the 'Isle of Armor' and the 'Crown Tundra'.

In a post on Twitter, Pokémon UK says the Isle of Armor region was inspired by the Isle of Man, with the Crown Tundra designed to represent Scotland.
