About

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.

Storyline

In a world inhabited entirely by talking Pokémon, some living in bustling towns and others dwelling in the wild, one ordinary day takes a strange turn. The player awakens as a Pokémon with a jarring case of amnesia, remembering only that they were once a human. This revelation stuns everyone they meet, for while the Pokémon know of a distant human world, it is meant to remain forever apart from their own. Befriending a kindhearted partner Pokémon, the pair form a rescue team dedicated to helping others in trouble, braving ever-shifting mystery dungeons to save Pokémon lost, trapped, or in danger. Their calling has never been more urgent, as violent natural disasters strike the land with growing frequency and force. As the team takes on missions, builds its reputation, and crosses paths with rival squads, whispers of an ancient legend begin to swirl, hinting that the newcomer's arrival may be tied to the chaos.
