Appendix:Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness walkthrough/Chapter 0
The Personality Quiz
The game begins with the following words:
- Welcome
- This is the portal that leads to the world inhabited only by Pokémon
- Beyond this gateway, many new adventures and fresh experiences await your arrival!
- Before you depart for the adventure, you must answer some questions.
- Be truthful when you answer them!
- Now, are you ready?
- Then...let the questions begin!
The personality test will then follow. The Pokémon will be chosen from the nature gathered in points from each question. The following Pokémon can be played, but those marked with a * cannot be chosen as partners:
