Plot

Main article: Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team → Plot

Blurb

You can meet and recruit Pokémon in a dungeon-crawling adventure within their world! Build a rescue team to take on mysterious, changing dungeons and strategically plan your moves as you venture forth to make the Pokémon world a safer place…and uncover your true purpose along the way.

As you recruit Pokémon, these trusty teammates will need somewhere to stay, so build camps to house, manage, and strengthen your Pokémon friends. Think hard about who is right for the job and how to approach each mysterious dungeon as you prepare a rescue team. You’ll move a single square at a time or use Auto mode to speed up movement until you engage other Pokémon in turn-based battles—but don’t forget about Pokémon strengths and weaknesses! This version adds gorgeous watercolor-inspired graphics, and more! Get comfortable in being a Pokémon, there’s a lot of work to do.

  • Wake up in the world of Pokémon and uncover your true purpose
  • Dungeon layouts will change each time you enter them, so you’ll likely not have the same adventure twice
  • Build a rescue team to explore dungeons and engage in strategic turn-based combat
  • Pokémon are available to meet and recruit
  • This version adds gorgeous watercolor-inspired graphics, and more!

Features

New features

  • Auto mode: Pressing the L Button will automatically move the player and their team until an enemy is approached or the button is pressed again.
  • Using the A Button now selects the best move against an opponent.
  • Up to five additional team members can be added while in a dungeon, for a total of eight teammates.
  • Some new items, like the Bank Orb.
  • The Makuhita Dojo has been revamped. Only one Pokémon can enter at a time and it now has a time limit, depending on which ticket the player gives to Makuhita.
  • Gummies can no longer be taken out of the Kangaskhan Storage. Instead, they are eaten at a rescue camp.
  • The game now autosaves.
  • The names of the player's main character, partner, and rescue team can be changed in the main menu.
  • TMs can no longer be Recycled; instead of becoming used TMs, they are destroyed. Recycle now instead changes a Plain Seed to a different Seed or an Oran Berry.
  • Friend Areas and the Wigglytuff Club are replaced by rescue team camps and Wigglytuff's Camp Corner, respectively.
  • Shiny Pokémon can be recruited using the Friend Bow.
  • A shortcut from Team Base to the Pelipper Post Office is created by Diglett early on in the game.

Returning features

  • As in Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon, the player can rescue themselves if they are defeated in a dungeon, in addition to rescuing other players.
  • As in Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon, Pokémon can experience Mega Evolution.
  • Moves from later generations, such as Foul Play and Charge Beam, are in the game.
  • Treasure Boxes return, but are opened automatically upon leaving the dungeon.
  • Pokémon with two Abilities no longer have both simultaneously.
  • Players can switch leaders by pushing +. Unlike the original games, it can be done at any time in any dungeon.

Characters

Playable characters

The player is able to choose one of the 16 returning Pokémon from the original game as their starter and partner Pokémon. However, the partner cannot be the same type as the player. The player may, as in the prior Nintendo DS titles, choose the player Pokémon using a quiz, or as in the WiiWare and Nintendo 3DS titles, choose a Pokémon themselves. Unlike the original games, the player character choices are not restricted by the player's selected gender.
