Walkthrough:Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky/Chapter 7

Wigglytuff's Guild

The Chosen Ones

At dinner, Chatot tells the guild that in the morning the chosen members for the expedition will be announced.

In bed, your partner is hopeful because while the mission for Perfect Apples didn't go well, you've still been working really hard. Your team falls asleep and a cutscene plays showing another Time Gear being stolen. This is the second one, and the shadowy figure remarks that there are only three more for it to collect.

The next morning, Chatot reads off the list of names for the expedition... everyone is chosen to go! Team Skull gets agitated and, because of that agitation, questions Wigglytuff. Wigglytuff stands by their decision because it will be more fun with everyone there.

Chatot says you better go and get ready before they leave to go on the expedition, so go to Treasure Town and buy some useful stuff, especially now that your Treasure Bag has gained another upgrade, being able to carry 32 items. To avoid losing precious items and your money, visit Kangaskhan's Storage as well as Duskull's Bank. After you're fully ready, go back to Chatot and talk to him to tell him you're ready. The rest of the guild assembles and Chatot explains that you'll be going to Fogbound Lake is groups for easier travel. You, your partner, and Bidoof are traveling together. Team Skull will travel independently.

Please note that during the expedition, since you cannot bring anyone from Chimecho Assembly, this also means no Pokémon will attempt to join you, so you want to get through each dungeon as safely as possible.

On side note, if you were to check out the green Kecleon brother's shop, you will notice that he sell different items now.

By The Coast

The guild has set to meet in a forest covered by clouds on the Wonder Map. You and your partner set to go off to a rocky stretch near the sea, first, and then make way to the camp.

Upon getting to the place, you will see a Kangaskhan Rock, which Bidoof explains is like a replacement for Kangaskhan Storage, as you can not only store items there but also keep a record of your game.

When you try to enter the place, there are two paths. Choose the Side Path for extra training, or Craggy Coast to advance.

Bidoof is Lv. 14, with the following moves. His species is the only one to have Unaware and almost the only one to have Simple; the former makes him ignore enemy's stat modifications when attacking them or being attacked, while the latter makes any stat modification on himself be treated as double the usual (such as his Defense Curl).

Side Path

A looping path for training in case your team has problems advancing through Craggy Coast, since you can't return to the town for now. This path takes you right back where you started after 5 floors. Be mindful of Gastrodon, as they might carry the far-reaching Water Pulse.

Items

Craggy Coast

Craggy Coast is 9 floors and the main type here appears to be Water, though there is one Dragon type - Dratini, which can walk on water nevertheless. Be careful, as certain Pokémon here pack dangerous moves; most notably, Sealeo might use Powder Snow, which hits all opposing Pokémon in the room and has chance to freeze.

There are three things of note about this dungeon. First, Gummis are common here; for a very long time this will be the best place to get Gummis as long as you don't mind their type. Second, enemies now have the chance to drop Boxes after being defeated. You cannot do anything with these yet, so deposit them to Storage to free up space. Third, this is the first dungeon to contain hidden stairs that will appear if you walk onto them and are marked with an orange square outline on the mini-map. Entering these will lead to a place called Secret Bazaar, where you will find Pokémon that offer services for 100 Poké each:

  • Clean up your sticky items; this is a mechanic that has not been introduced yet, so it is useless for now.
  • Restore your HP, PP and Belly
  • Escape from the dungeon
  • Enter a sort-of lottery to gain an item. The pool is dependent on the dungeon itself, however, this service is somewhat rigged as 50% of the time you will gain an Oran Berry instead of whatever you were supposed to (which, while this early in the game is not bad, as it is a potent healing item, in later dungeons can replace rare and useful items).

Using the hidden stairs will advance the dungeon as if you used regular stairs, so there's no reason to not use them.

After clearing this dungeon, you will be taken to the other side of the path. All of your stomachs rumble! You eat and decide to stay there for the night.

Into The Mountains

Like the other road before you, when you try to enter, there are two paths, Mt. Horn and Rock Path. Take Rock Path to train or Mt. Horn to advance. Bidoof is now Lv. 16.

Rock Path

Like Side Path, Rock Path is 5 floors and loops, as it takes you right back where you started. Be mindful of Bonsly's Fake Tears, which can soften you up for Shroomish's Absorb (which also carries Stun Spore and Leech Seed).

Items

Mt. Horn

Mt. Horn is 14 floors and full of Pokémon that can inflict some sort of status:

  • Parasect and Shroomish carry powder moves to put you to sleep, poison you or paralyze; the former can sometimes even have Cross Poison just case you thought resisting Bug or Grass moves made you safe. Be thankful Parasect is too low level here to be able to use Spore.
  • Ariados can slow you down with String Shot or Scary Face, as well as poison you with Poison Sting, but perhaps the worst: burn through your items with Bug Bite!

While this is one of the few dungeons before the credits roll where Fire-types are at an advantage, that doesn't mean they will have it simple. Once you reach the second half of the dungeon, a different batch of enemies will spawn and they're no joke either:

  • Venomoth, which can poison you with PoisonPowder, confuse you with Supersonic or Confusion, paralyze you with Disable, or perhaps the worst, simply attack your whole team across the room with Silver Wind (and if it gets the stat boost, it is likely to steamroll you).
  • Aerodactyl, who has quite the type coverage in its possible moves for this point in the game, many of which cause you to cringe and make counterattack impossible: Fire Fang, Ice Fang, Thunder Fang and Bite. If that wasn't enough, it might have Supersonic or Scary Face to make your life more miserable.
  • Pineco, who is less offensive, but about as annoying. It likely will have Bug Bite to waste your items, Protect to make defeating it impossible and Selfdestruct to quickly reduce your health and possibly destroy any items on the ground.

Notably, this is the first dungeon where Gummis for all Pokémon types can spawn.
