Waking Up

Where am I?

Am I dreaming this?

I feel a pleasant breeze.

...I hear a voice from somewhere...

I wonder who it is?

Those are the opening words of Mystery Dungeon.

Then your partner comes over and wakes you up. You say you are a human and he panics, and says that you look like a normal Pokémon. He asks for your name, which you will tell him. No matter what name you choose, your partner will laugh at it. Suddenly a Butterfree will fly over and ask for your help to save her child, Caterpie, who has fallen into a fissure. You and your partner will then need to complete a 4 floored dungeon.

Dungeon tips

• If your hp is low, hold B and Press A. This will heal you by 1 hp. However, it uses up your turn.
• When fighting Skarmory, instead of walking forward and letting Skarmory have the first attack, throw a Gravelrock, press A, or heal. That way, Skarmory will come forward and you will get the first attack.
