Appendix:Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky walkthrough/Chapter 11
Grovyle
After a few more optional missions, Chatot postpones the morning cheers just to report a very grave announcement...another Time Gear has been stolen, and this time, it's the one at Fogbound Lake!
Everyone makes quite an uproar. However, Chatot calls for silence and everyone becomes quiet immediately. According to Magnezone, the thief is Grovyle, and he shows the guild members a picture of him, with an extra-large bounty on his head. Grovyle, apparently, has a "sixth sense" for connecting with Time Gears. He has been the one stealing the recently stolen Time Gears.
Again, everyone gets noisy, some claiming that they never told Grovyle about any of the Time Gears. However, Wigglytuff himself calls for silence, making everyone fall quiet almost instantly. Wigglytuff then declares that they will catch Grovyle! Everyone says "HOORAY!" and goes off.
The Mission
Everyone is taken off of their normal duties to make sure the next two Time Gears are safe. Your team is going to Northern Desert, a place where it is rumored to have Time Gears.
Once you arrive, there appears to be no Time Gears, and your partner gets confused. However, he/she says they will need to go deeper in to get a real look at the dungeon, and you set off.
Northern Desert
A dungeon with a weather condition, the Sandstorm. This could be really annoying, as every few steps the game will say you took damage (unless you're a Phanpy). As predicted, there are many Ground types here, as well as some Rock types, and occasional Grass types. Because two of the types, Ground and Grass, are defensive against Electric, Electric is not recommended.

After completing this level, you will see many quicksand. However, your partner gets scared and realizes that there really is no Time Gear there...but you get the feeling there is something beneath the quicksand. However, you follow your partner to head back to the guild.
Mission...failed.
You're not the only who found nothing--everyone else didn't find any Time Gear as well! As such, Chatot gets a bit disappointed and says they'll continue to search tomorrow. You go off to eat dinner.
The next day
you tell your partner about the quicksand, and perhaps you need to jump into it. Your partner thinks you're mad, but he/she agrees anyway and you go through
