3.- WELCOME TO THIS FAQ!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi guys! Let me introduce myself first. I’m Carlos Knox but mynickname is
CarlosPit. I’m 15 and I live in Peru (That’s why you may find some
grammar mistakes in this guide). I’m a huge Pokemon Fan. I’ve played
both Pokemon D/P and Mystery Dungeon Series. I love both of them.
Since I enjoyed Blue Rescue Team a lot, I decided to buy this one.
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Darkness. And, since there are
no "Step by Step" guides, I decided to make one. In this one, you’ll find
what to do in each part of the game. So, please enjoy this walkthrough!
Please, this is the First Time I’m going through the game, so be patient
with me and with the updates, because while I play I have to take notes,
so it takes long. But don’t worry, I’ll give my 100%.

5.- INTRODUCTION TO THE GAME
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now I’m done with the Storyline, I’ll make this section.
If you have played Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Blue/Red Rescue Team, you’ll
know the main problem. YOU ARE A POKEMON! Zomg how can this be? There
must be a reason. Maybe you have a mission in this Pkmn world? Maybe you’re
like a God? Maybe you just had amnesia. Who knows? But in this new Pokemon
World, everything is new to you. You don’t know a single thing about this. You
will also start noticing that your feelings are more like a Pokemon’s one.
Intrigued? Then go buy Pokemon Mystery Dungeon 2: Explorers of Darkness/Time

7.- STORYLINE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
*Note: Instead of Saying "The Hero" I’ll say YOU, cause in this
game you’re the hero.*
=============
7.1 Getting Started
=============
Turn on your Nintendo DS and choose New Game. Then you’ll have
to answer a questionaire, this will determine your personality. You’ll
also be asked to put your finger on the screen so they can detect
your aura. Put either the tip of your finger or the stylus for about
10 seconds and then stop. A Pokemon will be assigned according
to your personality. If you don’t like what you got, there’s a nice
guide in GameFaqs about Starter Pokemons. Anyway, back to MY
guide, when you’re happy with what you got as Starter, you’ll need
to choose a Partner. This Pokemon will help you during the story.
Remember that you can’t have two pokemons of the same type.
IE: You can’t be a Charmander and have Chimchar as your partner,
since both of them are fire types. I chose Chimchar as Starter and
Piplup as partner. But it’s up to you.
========================
7.2 CHAPTER 1: STORMY SEA
========================
On the screen you’ll see someone talking, suddenly the screen
will turn white. When you have vision again, you’ll see a rock that
looks like a sharpedo. Then you’ll see a quiet beach. Conclusion:
you’ll see pictures. Finally, when you stop watching images, you’ll
see your Main Pokemon at the shore of the beach. He can’t even
get up. After that, you’ll see your Partner in front of a building.
He’ll say something about being brave, and stand on a grate, but
immediately step off. He’s afraid of it for some reason. He feels
dissapointed because he even had his personal treasure to give
him courage. He’s so dissapointed he leaves to his relax spot.
What your partner didn’t know, was that Zubat and Koffing were
listening to everything he was saying and they heard about his
personal treasure and they decide to get it.
Again, you’ll see some images. A beautiful beach and lots of
bubbles, these are produced by Krabbies. Your partner
appears and says the reason why the Krabbies appeared,
which I can’t remember at the moment ’cause I pressed A
before I took note.
Your partner then realized there was something weird by
the other side of the shore. When he goes to check, he found
you! He asks if you’re ok but you don’t reply. You finally get up
and your partner feels relieved. You ask yourself where are
you, but you don’t remember at all what happened. Your partner
will introduce himself. He asks for your name. That’s when you
have to choose a nickname. I reccomend using a nickname
because I don’t think it would be nice if there existed a
Pokemon with your name. I chose Timatria. You will also say
that you’re not a Pokemon! You’re a human! When you tell this
to your partner he thinks you’re a liar but later he thinks you’re
saying the truth and he feels sorry for doubting. He also says
that the Bad Pokemon number has increased lately. Suddenly,
Zubat and Koffing hit your partner and his treasure fell in the
ground.They pick it up and say your partner is way too
coward to make a move and they take off. That treasure
means everything to your partner so he wants it back and he
asks you for help. Accept to his request and you’ll head to
your first dungeon of Explorers of Darkness.

-----------------------------------------------
HostleX team:

Timatria = 5
Dinasty = 5
Level (OUT):
Timatria = 6
Dinasty = 6
------------BEACH CAVE----------------
When you reach Beach Cave Pit, you’ll meet Zubat and Koffing.
They’ll keep calling your partner a coward. They intend to sell
it. Want it back? Fight for it! After u beat them, they will return
the treasure and run away. Your Partner will say thanks and you
guys will return to the beach.
Once you’re there, your partner will explain you about the
treasure he has. It’s called Relic Fragment. He gives a LOT of
information, so enjoy...
He also tells you that he always wanted to be in an exploration
team. He tried joining one, but he chickened out. He asks you
what are you going to do. Let’s see, you’re a human in a Pkmn
body... what are you supposed to do? Maybe a picnic? NO!
You have no idea what to do! So, your Partner asks you if you
want to form and exploration team with him. He has a lot of
confidence. He’s sure that team would pwn. If you decline,
he will beg you. So just accept. As a matter of fact you only
accept because you want to know why did you become a
pokemon. Your partner says you gus have to go with
Wigglytuff to sign up as exploration team. Training will be
tough... But do your best!!
"And so, Dinasty and Timatria formed and Exploration Team.
This turned out to be their very first step into many fantastic
realms of adventure that await their arrival"
AND NOW ENJOY.............
POKEMON MYSTERY DUNGEON EXPLORERS OF DARKNESS/TIME
Starring: YOU
:::Save Point:::
====================================
7.3 CHAPTER 2: THE NEW GUILD RECRUITS
====================================
You’ll see Wigglytuff’s guild as soon as you can see
again. You must register there to have an Exploration Team.
You gotta train until you become First Rate Explorers. Your
Partner starts chickening out again, but he decides to be
brave ´cause you’re next to him now. He steps on the Grate
and his footprints get scanned. He’s still afraid, but he’s
allowed to go in.
"Partner must step on the grave too"
"..."
"That’s you idiot!"
Uh... ok! Step on the grate, but they won’t be able to
be sure about which pokemon are you. But who cares...
come on in! There’s a hatch leading underground. You go
down. Woah! So many Pokemons!! It’s Wigglytuff’s guild!
You’ll see a Chatot appear. He’s Wigglytuff’s right hand.
He thinks you guys are salespersons. Your partner will
clarify that you want to become an Exploration Team.
He finds it weird ’cause usually young pokemons do not
tend to make an Exploration Team because the training is
tough... but I DON’T KNOW WHY... he changed his mind...
and said training is a piece of cake. Oh well, who cares.
You’re about to meet the GuildMaster! Be Nice! Always
say Please and Thanks!!
You’ll meet Wigglytuff and asks you the name you want
for your Exploration Team. I chose HostleX ´cause... it
sounds kewl. W/e you choose, it’s going to be a good
name for your partner. REMEMBER that the word TEAM
is automatically put before your name, so don’t make the
silly mistake to choose "FlameTeam" as your team’s
name because it would be "Team FlameTeam". Ohhh,
Blue Rescue Team Memories...
Back to Explorers of Darkness... Once you say the
name you want, your team will now be OFFICIAL!
Yay! Now you will receive your Pkmn Exploration Team
Kit which contains:
-Explorer Badge: Team ID
-Wonder Map: Just a Map, they added the word Wonder
-Treasure Bag: It’s the Bag where you carry the items
