Walkthrough:Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon/Chapter 11

Introduction

The chapter begins as the hero and partner arrive to an area before Sheer Mountain Range during their journey to Lively Town. When the cutscene ends, the player may open the Deposit Box there and head right once ready.

Sheer Mountain Range

The hero and partner are the only ones that can be used in this dungeon for the first visit. The dungeon has 13 floors and is mostly consists of Flying-types, making this a danger for Grass-types especially. It is adviced to bring a ton of Apples since the Hunger stat will deplete fast thanks to the dungeon's map design.

After clearing Sheer Mountain Range, the hero and partner arrives near the entrance of Gentle Slope Cave, where they rest for the night. The partner starts talking about the Expedition Society after remembering they haven't told the hero about them. The Expedition Society, officially Pokémon Expedition Society goes on expeditions all around the world, discovering new continents and Pokémon, and records information in the Pokémon Nexus, having the capacity for a World Map of the planet. They express wanting to help with that too, but gets discouraged for a second before getting over it.

The next day, the player may open the Deposit Box and go inside of Gentle Slope Cave.

Gentle Slope Cave

Like with Sheer Mountain Range, only the player and partner can be used for the first visit. This dungeon has 8 floors containing mostly of Ghost-types. Ground and Rock-types are also present here, making this a danger for Fire-types and for Pikachu.

Arrival to Lively Town

After clearing the dungeon, the hero and partner sees Lively Town in the distance after coming out and start moving onward. When the pair arrives, the partner asks a passerby Snubbul to confirm the destination.

With arriving to Lively Town, comes with new shops:

  • Rockin' Lock: This shop opens Poké150 and red Treasure Boxes for Poké300. It is run by Klefki.
  • Glorious Gold: This shop will let the player exchange Gold Bars for various items. The player may also exchange Gold Bars for Poké555 each. It is run by Cofagrigus. Below are the items that can be exchanged for in this shop.
  • Meowth Theater: This shop allows the player to play five special dungeons as if they were recorded for a movie. After the film is shot, whether the dungeon is cleared or the player fainted, the film will be stored on the SD card. It is run by Meowth.

The partner informs the player that the Expedition Society base should be near. They then encounter Krokorok, who tries to mug the pair, before being trampled by a group of Pokémon consisting of Buizel, Archen, Bunnelby, and Dedenne chasing after a Swirlix. After the three gets up, Krokorok tries again but they get trampled once more. The three got up afterward and Krokorok gave up and went inside of the local Café Connection.

Expedition Society base

The partner reads the sign outside of the Expedition Society base to confirm if they found the right place. The pair heads in only to find no one. They head up to the second floor where they see the Pokémon Nexus. The five Pokémon from earlier runs to the floor. The four began scolding Swirlix and Dedenne's whiskers emit electricity and breaks the Pokémon Nexus. Archen start lamenting over his hard work being all for nothing. Swirlix begins spinning around because of hunger and passes out. The other four passes out soon after. The partner expresses concern for them. Buizel replies that they're okay and just that they're hungry. He also confirms that they're members of the Expedition Society after being asked by the partner. He explains that Swirlix ate all of the Expedition Society's food. The player and partner head towards the plaza to get them food.

At night, the Expedition Society starts eating. They thank the pair for the food; the partner explains how the town thought they were young travelling Pokémon in distress and gave them a lot of food. Buizel asks the pair why they're here. The partner says that they want to join the Expedition Society. Everyone is stunned by what was just said and refuses the two from joining, as kids aren't allowed. The partner begins begging. Swirlix accepts, knowing that the chief will say the same thing.

Ampharos comes in, who reveals himself to be the chief of the Expedition Society. He is accompanied by Mawile. Ampharos then revokes his own rule, allowing the hero and partner to become members. The Expedition Society begins introducing themselves, in order: Buizel, the marine explorer; Archen, the aerial explorer, despite being flightless; Dedenne, the communications operator, who uses her whiskers to transmit signals to the members; Bunnelby, the underground explorer; Swirlix, the steward; Mawile, the resident archeologist, who studies on the history of the world; and lastly, Ampharos, the chief of the Expedition Society. There is one more member, but he's asleep at this time.

The partner asks Ampharos asks about why he denied working for the Expedition Society when they asked him back at Serene Village. Ampharos replies that he doesn't work here, but rather manages. Dedenne shows the player and partner their room, with the rest except for Ampharos and Mawile following after. Mawile and Ampharos discusses about the pair. Mawile expresses that she was surprised he accepted the two. Ampharos couldn't resist them, making sure to not mess things up going forward, and to watch over and provide support for the two.

Dedenne brings the two to their room. After leaving, the pair celebrates becoming official members of the Expediton Society. They hit the hay and fall asleep, marking the end of this chapter.
