'''Wigglytuff's Guild''' (Japanese: '''プクリンのギルド''' ''Pukurin Guild'') is a first-class Guild where {{md|Team|Exploration Team}}s train to become first-rate. It is also where the {{pkmn2|hero}} and {{md|Partner Pokémon|partner}} start their adventure as an Exploration Team in {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness}} as well as {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky}}. [[Guildmaster Wigglytuff|Wigglytuff]] is the leader of the guild, or simply called the Guildmaster. This is also where [[Croagunk's Swap Shop]] and [[Chimecho Assembly]] are located. After the player finishes the game, the hero and the partner are given the opportunity to graduate from the Guild. Even after that, the team is still tied to the guild in some ways. The guild is northeast of [[Treasure Town]].

==The Guild==

===Entrance===
The head of a {{p|Wigglytuff}} on a tent-like object is the entrance to the Guild. A grate is right in front of the entrance. Visitors or [[List of Wigglytuff's Guild members|Guild members]] have to step on the grate to let the [[Sentry Duty|sentry]] (usually {{p|Diglett}}) evaluate the visitor's [[footprint]] and identify them. Then {{mdc|Loudred|2}} verifies whether they are wanted Pokémon then opens the door if they aren't outlaws.
Entering the Guild brings the visitor into an entrance hall. In this small room there is a board featuring the guild's extended motto, counting from one to ten, and also the ladder descending into the first sublevel. According to Bidoof's Yup Yup Journal, {{mdc|Chatot|2}}  sleeps on the top rung in front of the door at night to prevent the guild members from leaving.

===Sublevel 1===
This is where [[Chimecho Assembly]], the Outlaw Notice Board, and the Job Bulletin Board are located. Many {{md|Team|Exploration Team}}s gather here to take [[Job (Mystery Dungeon)|jobs]] from the two boards. A signboard that has questions regarding Exploration all over it is near the Job Bulletin Board.

===Sublevel 2===
This is the larger of the two sublevels. It is where the [[Croagunk Swap Shop]], entrance to the [[Sentry Duty|Sentry Post]], [[Guildmaster Wigglytuff|Guildmaster's]] chamber, Crew Rooms, and the Mess Hall are located. The Croagunk Swap Shop is run by {{p|Croagunk}}. Here, Pokémon can trade various [[Exclusive item|rare items]] received from [[Treasure Box]]es for other items. Each morning, the [[List of Wigglytuff's Guild members|guild members]] all do their morning cheers in the central area and listen to any announcements {{mdc|Chatot|2}} has to make. Chatot can usually be found outside the Guildmaster's  chamber.

===Crew Rooms===
There are three crew rooms. The north room belongs to {{mdc|Sunflora|2}} and  {{p|Chimecho}}, the east room belongs to the hero and their partner and the south room belongs to {{mdc|Bidoof|2}}, {{p|Corphish}} and {{mdc|Loudred|2}}, (as seen in [[Bidoof's Wish]] and mentioned in Bidoof's Yup Yup Journal). According to the said journal, {{p|Croagunk}} often comes to his crew room to sleep. After the hero summons {{mdc|Drowzee|2}} from {{OBP|Mt. Travail|Explorers of Time, Darkness, and Sky}}, Azurill is found having a nightmare in their ex-crew room until the hero and the partner encounter {{mdc|Darkrai|2}} in [[Spacial Rift]].

===Mess Hall===
This is where meals (prepared by {{mdc|Chimecho|2}}) are taken after the day has ended.

==Notable members==

{{main|List of Wigglytuff's Guild members}}

===Guildmaster Wigglytuff===
{{main|Guildmaster Wigglytuff}}
Wigglytuff is the Guildmaster of Wigglytuff's Guild and also a former member of the legendary Master Rank rescue team [[Team Charm]]. He acts very easy going and somewhat naive but has an explosive temper, which the entire Guild knows and fears. He also sleeps with his eyes wide open. Despite his childish behavior, Wigglytuff is an accomplished explorer and helps the team discover the mystery behind the [[Relic Fragment]] and the [[Hidden Land]], he is also extremely powerful. Wigglytuff has an obsession with {{DL|Food (Mystery Dungeon)|Perfect Apples}}, and is known {{m|Hyper Voice|for crying out loud}} if he doesn't have one, something everyone in the Guild fears, {{mdc|Chatot|2}} in particular.

===Chatot===
{{main|Chatot (Explorers of Time, Darkness, and Sky)}}
Chatot is [[Guildmaster Wigglytuff|Wigglytuff]]'s second-in-command, and his best friend. He is the head of intelligence of the Guild and so lays clever tactics during difficult Explorations. Chatot assigns explorations to the guild members, and is in charge when Wigglytuff isn't at the Guild. Although he means well, he can be somewhat hotheaded and has a short temper. His personality is also somewhat erratic, but to a lesser extent than Wigglytuff. Although he doesn't show it, and as shown in [[Bidoof's Wish]], frantically denies it, he cares deeply for the [[List of Wigglytuff's Guild members|Guild Members]].

==Policies==
===Morning cheers===
In the morning, members of the guild shout a cheer before doing their work. The full version, however, is only heard once. After the first time, only the last line "''...THREE, SMILES GO FOR MILES!''" is heard. The full version follows:

<ab>''A ONE, A TWO...A ONE-TWO-THREE
ONE! DON'T SHIRK WORK!
TWO! RUN AWAY AND PAY!
THREE! SMILES GO FOR MILES!''</ab>

===Ten Rules for Exploration Teams===
In the guild's entrance hall, there is a board featuring the guild's rules for the {{md|Team|Exploration Team}}s. These are the rules written on the board:


{|
|'''Wigglytuff's Guild'''
|-
|'''Ten Rules for Exploration Teams'''
|}


{|
|One! Don't shirk work!
|-
|Two! Run away and pay!
|-
|Three! Smiles go for miles!
|-
|Four! Once you put a job on your team's list, then use Take Job! That step can't be missed!
|-
|Five! Restock your supplies and rations before heading out on explorations!
|-
|Six! Before you explore, try to think about the moves you should link!
|-
|Seven! While exploring, don't you panic! Stay cool and calm, never manic!
|-
|Eight! Helping all Pokémon in need is an explorer's duty, indeed!
|-
|Nine! Do lots of jobs! That's truly the key! You'll reach Gold Rank. Just wait and see!
|-
|Ten! The money you earn is shared with the guild! That's the way our friendship will build!
|}

==Training==
Apprentices have to do jobs from the two boards. The Guild takes a 90 percent share from any [[Poké|money]] that is given as a reward. If apprentices excel at their jobs, they are given more difficult assignments. If they are lagging behind, however, they are tasked with simpler errands. Some apprentices do chores inside the Guild like preparing dinner and updating the boards. When the hero and partner first sign up at the Guild, {{mdc|Chatot|2}} heavily hints that the training at the Guild is brutal and quite difficult, which often deters new apprentices from appearing.

When a Guild Member is deemed "superexpectional" by the [[Guildmaster Wigglytuff|Guildmaster]], they may graduate if they can pass the Graduation Test in the [[Luminous Spring]]. If they succeed, they may formally leave the Guild, though they will still be associated with it. If they fail the test, then they must continue their training in order to receive a second chance.

==Expeditions==
Every so often, Wigglytuff's Guild embarks on an expedition to faraway lands. As revealed by the villagers of [[Treasure Town]], usually the Guild returns triumphant with lots of treasure. The hero and partner will join the Guild on one expedition during the game's storyline, attempting to find [[Fogbound Lake]], which will take them through [[Craggy Coast]], [[Mt. Horn]], [[Foggy Forest]], and [[Steam Cave]]. At the end, the entire Guild will encounter {{mdc|Uxie|2}}, learning about the [[Time Gear]]s, and they vow to keep the location of Fogbound Lake a secret from the world, causing everyone else to believe the Guild failed upon return as the Guild members revealed nothing. The selection process for the expedition is presumably akin to {{mdc|Chatot|2}} or [[Guildmaster Wigglytuff|Wigglytuff]] alerting the Guild to the possibility of an expedition, and everyone is urged to work hard and be noticed the next few days so they may be chosen for the expedition.

==In animation==
[[File:Wigglytuff Guild entrance anime.png|thumb|250px|Wigglytuff's Guild in ''[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time & Darkness]]'']]
Wigglytuff's Guild first appeared in ''[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time & Darkness]]'', where {{p|Chimchar}} and {{p|Piplup}} visited the Guildmaster Wigglytuff to ask permission to form an Exploration Team. Their request was accepted, thus allowing them to join the Guild as [[Team Poképals]]. Their first mission was to go the [[Labyrinth Cave]] and get a [[Gabite Scale]] that would heal {{p|Shinx}}'s sick sister. Accompanied by Sunflora, Chimchar and Piplup successfully completed their mission and returned to the Guild.

Wigglytuff's Guild reappeared in ''[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky - Beyond Time & Darkness]]'', where the Guild members watched as a dark cloud approached, soon covering the entire area and freezing time. The Guild members joined hands, having faith in Team Poképals to stop the chaos.

== Trivia ==

* Capim Town's music has the Wigglytuff's Guild {{Wp|leitmotif}} in one part of it. This is because [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]] and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|Explorers of Sky]] take place on the [[Grass Continent]].
