Appendix:Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky walkthrough/Post Story/Section 3

You'll hear from Corphish in Treasure Town that Sunflora, who's at the bottom floor of the guild, is excited about something. Corphish says it sounds suspiciously like a dungeon, since Sunflora keeps on exclaiming about some place called the Surrounded Sea. Sunflora is at the bottom level of the guild, so go there.

Sunflora will start off the conversation by asking whether you know a place called the Surrounded Sea. Apparently, it's a sea far to the north. It's also uncharted on the ocean, and unfortunately has been encrusted with ice over tens of thousands of years. But good news! Fortunately, someone found a break in the ice, so the gap opened a way to go into that enclosed area. Sunflora, like Corphish said, gets extremely excited and fussily claims about a world that was never seen for ten thousand years.

Apparently, there's more to the already kind-of-long story--the world's ocean currents course through the Surrounded Sea. Rare treasures are carried through the currents! Just thinking about it makes Sunflora want to faint! She calms down a bit and explains that Surrounded Sea's entrance is east of Blizzard Island, the previous dungeon. Sunflora, knowing what a great exploration team the two of you are, says that the two of you should check it out yourselves!

Surrounded Sea

As this is a sea, it is covered entirely with water. Likely, the main type here is Water. There are 20 floors here, and on the 20th floor there will be a warp zone that will teleport you and your partner out of the dungeon as well as a Wonder Egg. There are also three Deluxe Boxes which contain Reviver Seeds.

Like mentioned earlier, after completing this dungeon, you'll get transported out.

The Hatched Egg

Soon, the Egg you found at Surrounded Sea will hatch into a small Manaphy. Manaphy will be very happy to be part of your team, and it will be your responsibility to raise it.

Blue Gummis

When you take the Manaphy back to the guild, it'll start crying. Sunflora, who is in the room with you, wonders what's going on, and is surprised at seeing a Manaphy. Sunflora asks what's wrong, and Manaphy tells Sunflora it wants a Blue Gummi. After a while, talk to Chatot, who says the best place to find a Blue Gummi is in Craggy Coast. Now that you're way leveled up, this should be quite easy.

Back at Craggy Coast

Do not rush through floors, as you need to find many Blue Gummis. Search everywhere if you have to resort to that--to narrow down your search, many Blue Gummis can be found at the B7F floor.

When you come back with a Blue Gummi, you'll feed it to it. Manaphy, happy, decides to move in within your residence (though still not part of your team). As babies are like, it wants more food, so you'll have to go back to Craggy Coast to get another one.

After giving the second Blue Gummi to Manaphy, you'll go to bed. When you wake up, Manaphy, wanting to go near water, will ask if it could go to the beach south of Treasure Town. Go there, and Manaphy will be happy. Later, there will be a bit of talking, and you'll fall asleep.

The Sick Manaphy

The next morning, when you wake up, you'll realize Manaphy isn't there. After looking through the entire residence, you'll realize Manaphy definitely isn't inside the hatch, so go outside and look for Manaphy!

As you continue your search, Chatot will catch up to you. When asked what you are looking for, your partner will explain that Manaphy's gone missing. He'll tell you he saw Manaphy go to the beach again, so go look for Manaphy. Naughty Manaphy!

When you arrive at the beach, you'll see Manaphy, who has fallen ill. Worried, you wonder what to do, then after a scene of talking to Manaphy...you'll gain access to Miracle Sea!

Miracle Sea

Likewise, the main type here is Water. Since this is a sea, there will be water all around. For the first part, there is 18 floors--after reaching a midway point, there will be four, meaning 22 floors in all.

After completing the second part of the dungeon, you'll reach a boss, which is a Gyarados! Gyarados is trying to take all of the Phione dew, which is what cures Manaphy. Your partner gets angry and you begin a battle with him!

Boss Battle

As a Water and Flying type, Gyarados is very weak to Electric types, so if you have any Electric types, you should bring them here. However, he does have high HP and some good moves, so you might take a lot of damage. All in all, it isn't too hard to defeat this Pokémon.

After defeating him, he'll fall, and the Phione are very grateful for your help. Seeing the sick Manaphy, they give you the Phione dew, which instantly makes Manaphy feel better.

Once Manaphy is better, a Walrein comes to take Manaphy where it belongs--at the sea. Everyone's happiness immediately falters and you all cry, wishing that Manaphy could have been with you longer...it didn't even join your team...

You can always go back to Miracle Sea to go and recruit the Phione--upon reaching the end of the dungeon, Phione will automatically join your team.

Continue to Aegis Cave.
