The Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Animated Shorts (Japanese: 『ポケモン不思議のダンジョン ~マグナゲートと∞迷宮~ 』PV Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Magnagate and the Infinite Labyrinth PVs) are two special animated trailers made to promote the release of Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity.

The two animated shorts were uploaded to The Pokémon Company's Japanese YouTube Channel on November 1, 2012. The animated shorts were then dubbed and uploaded to the The Pokémon Company International's English YouTube Channel and Nintendo YouTube Channel on March 26, 2013.

Complete versions of the trailers incorporating additional footage were also made. The complete versions of The Adventure and The Magnagates were released on DVD at TSUTAYA in Japan on December 15, 2012.[1] The complete version of The Adventure was later re-released on The Pokémon Company's Japanese YouTube channel on July 3, 2015. The English-dubbed version includes the additional footage in both shorts.

The Japanese and English versions of the animated shorts were later re-uploaded on July 3, 2015 and October 22, 2015, respectively, in order to promote the release of Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon. The shorts, along with Team Go-Getters Out of the Gate!, Explorers of Time & Darkness, and Explorers of Sky - Beyond Time & Darkness, were also made available on Pokémon TV. These shorts were given new title card effects and renamed as Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity.

The scene then shifts to Pikachu narrating, claiming the area as her paradise, and talking about how she'll have adventures and meet other Pokémon, and make it a paradise for all Pokémon. Several scenes play during the narration, showing Pikachu and Oshawott talking to and working together with many other Pokémon.

They turn around when they hear something emerging from the ground behind them, and find themselves ambushed by four Excadrill and a Purugly, a Toxicroak, a Gigalith and a Chandelure.
