Forest Path (Japanese: もりのよこみち Forest Side Path) is a dungeon in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness and Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky. It is an optional dungeon preceding Foggy Forest that is only available before completing the dungeon. It exists solely for experience, as the first time the Foggy Forest appears, the player is on a guild expedition and can't return to Treasure Town.

Gameplay

All floors are ranked E for the purpose of Treasure Boxes.

Floors 1 through are 4 are medium sized, while the last floor is large. All will have between 3 to 8 rooms. There are 1-2 Wonder Tiles on each floor, 1-4 items and 1-2 starting enemies.

There are no special occurrences in this dungeon, and the player cannot be rescued if knocked out, thus making this dungeon unavailable once Foggy Forest is finished. The turn limit is 1000 on each floor. There is water on floors 4 and 5.
