BTW the Mystery Dungeon games are known for having a metric boatload of postgame content. Easily twice over the amount of time spent on the main story.

I love how pokemon made official pokemon Isekai games. "I woke up as a amnesiac pokemon and started a rescue team" would 100% be the light novel title.

NGL, zizagoon throwing rocks and being like the MVP of the team had me dying of laughter for some reason

You reappear in the end of the game because your partner Pokemon's sorrow reaches you and you decide that you want to stay with them. So the powers that be granted you that wish. The post game also lets you unlock a quest that devells deeper into Guardivors story and gives context to Gangers actions in the end. It's actually really good I can recommend you giving it a try

The one thing I remember about the OG rescue teams was being at a gamestop and saw an ad for it playing on the TV. The clerk saw me and said "they're not very good" so I didn't get them. I will be forever salty at that employee because the mystery dungeon games have become some my favorite pokemon games.

I never thought about it but It's weird how Absol joins your team and then for the remaining cutscenes that Absol has a presence in it has no speaking lines.

I will forever be salty about the remaster removing the ability to walk around in friend areas.

I gotta say, I actually JUST replayed this game, and the best part was hoarding those friend areas. They mesmerized me when I was a kid, and they still manage to today. The art is so sick…

I always loved the Alakazam and Shiftry scene because the world interacted with itself without ur interfering, made it feel so much alive and gave me this feeling of stuff being out there that i cant even imagine. Rescue Teams of unimaginary strenght and danger of unfathomable size.

Don't forget that Xatu can see the future! I've always understood that he knows Gengar overheard their conversation and knows what he would ultimately do with the information. However, he also knows that would push you and your partner to your limits during the fugitive arc, expose the truth to everyone, and help strengthen you in preparation to fight Groudon and Rayquaza.

Finally got around to playing a non-main series game! Let me know what other games you want me to play and also leave a Like and Subscribe for more!

Dude, Zigzagoon's so powerful in this game, I don't understand it. It levels up really quickly, and is extremely powerful for no real reason whatsoever. Like, legit, its stats go wonk and its attack and special attack goes to like, 50 at the level 20's, with it's defensive stats sitting at like, 20. Was easily stronger than me and my partner, and did more damage in a single headbutt than a bullet seed, like wowa weewa. Based Teammate.

Very Important piece of imformation regarding the Ninetales Legend: It didnt cursed the Trainer randomly. It was moved by the sacrifices and took pity on the Guardevoir. It than asked its Trainer if he wants to save Guardevoir, but the Trainer ran in fear and left his Guardevoir behind. This angered Ninetails and it cursed the Trainer to "someday" get reborn as a Pokemon. So basicly it cursed him after his death to live the life of a Pokemon.

If you do cover the Mystery Dungeon: Explorers titles I beg of you to cover the post-game! It's basically an entire extra storyline (not to mention that you're missing out on finishing Gengar's arc by not playing the post-game of this one).

I’m not sobbing uncontrollably because of the ending, YOU’RE sobbing uncontrollably because of the ending!

Also a fun fact, you can make custom wondermail online that can do crazy things like give you insanely strong items and stuff. It was easily exploitable lmao

If I had this guide as a kid I might have actually finished the game instead of getting stuck and quitting lol

“What’s the stun seed backwards?” 😂😂😂 bro you had me dying laughing so hard

You should definitely consider covering the postgame in a future video. Especially in Rescue Team, the postgame is where the real game begins.

YOOOO I ACTUALLY HAD THIS GUIDE AS A KID!! I loved the heck out of Blue Rescue Team as a kid! I actually never even needed the guide until the post-game since unlocking some of the secret Friend Areas (like Sky Blue Plains) and activating some of the post-story events was a little cryptic, so playing the game without any help and learning all this complicated hidden stuff I didn't know about was really cool to me!! I loved the cool Zapdos poster that came with the guide too, and the cool art on some of the pages. Thanks for the throwback!

you caught me off guard with the stun seeds 😂😂

I still find it hilarious that shoplifting was allowed in a game that's all about helping people

I can trace the birth of my cynicism directly to the fact that this game was promoted with a single anime episode. I waited so long for them to start airing the rest of the series.

I had this guide as a kid and I liked reading it so much that it got so worn and torn. Seeing that book again sends me back!

I remember dying 30 times to rayquaza 💀

Awesome!!! I love you branching out to play non main series games with guides. One of my fave KZfaq series

I remember getting really lucky and befriending Moltress after my second attempt at the mission. After that I swept through the post game and remember specifically always starving in the ruins in stage 100 and something. I absolutely loved that game. I'm lucky enough to still have my safe file

I was very fond of this game as a kid. I think it was the first Pokemon game I beat way back when. In the end, I became a level 100 Charizard with maximum IQ, so I could walk on anything with no issue and break through walls. Very fun.

PMD deserves Post-Game coverage bc its extremely rich in story despite being “after” the main story. It really isnt the same if you don’t complete it, I highly recommend it!

Oh damn, I’ve turned into a Pokémon! Better pick up this convenient guide about this exact situation that I conveniently have for this exact situation!

I am HUGE Mystery Dungeon fan. I absolutely love these games, and think they are really underrated. I have played at least 1 game from each generation (gen 3-Rescue team blue, gen 4 - Darkness, gen 5 - Gates to infinity, gen 6 - Super MD, and the remake).

That Skytower Theme SLAPS

The Mystery Dungeon series were so underrated to me! I loved them along with the original Pokémon series too! I wish I heard more about these games as well.

I feel like Nintendo intended for you to have Magnemite and Absol as your permanent party members

Nintetales didn’t just „punish the human anyway“ but because they abandoned gardevoir!!!

This was one of the only guides I ever had, with red rescue team. Fantastic series, loves the MD games and always find myself going back to them. The stories are great and the gameplay was always fun. Excellent video

What if... the main series games are a pokemon's dream where they dream they're a human...

BEEN WAITING FOR THIS, I’M SO EXCITED

Charmander's facial expressions though 🤣

Ok. This was one of my favorite games when I was younger (still is) so this video better be good xD love the content man keep up the good work.

I remember having that manual as my bible. The part describing Steelix in Magma Cavern was wild to me because in Spanish it straight up calls it “little bastard”

loved your narration all the way through thanks for the great vid on one of my favorite games of all time

I really liked when you spiced up this series formula by playing Minish Cap so it's cool to see you tackle PMD here as a departure from just mainline Pokémon games. Like you, I played the game a fair bit as a kid but never beat it (I did however beat the recent Switch remake), so it's cool to learn of new stuff thanks to you guide-aided playthrough such as the 3:32 heal mechanic. 1:59 - Funny enough, Mudkip was who I ended up as when playing this game for the first time and I also selected Charmander as my partner Pokémon. My younger brother meanwhile keeps ending up as Machop, which is a Pokémon I'd have never considered for him. 8:23 - Much like how it's interesting to see how a team is built, it's interesting to see what Pokémon gets recruited to your team. Surprising to hear how you appreciated the rock throwing of your Zigzagoon ally. I remember getting frustrated that my allies would waste all my items, even when they had long distance moves available. 15:05 - Always nice to see when the guides have fun. It's not wrong either; I remember Mt Blaze being a lengthy trip. Interesting to hear the amount of times you fainted. The original PMD is certainly harder than it's remake. 17:32 - Whilst the Gengar-Gardevoir story is neat, it is also a shame that you aren't the cursed human. It would have been neat to have both a backstory and a flaw to your character and more personal involvement in it.

I literally had that same guide book and I studied it for MONTHS before I was able to play the games that Christmas! I remember it like it was yesterday. I don't think I truly played as Nintendo intended though XD. I'm so glad to see you playing these game, I'm a major Mystery Dungeon stan :)

yayyy i'm so glad you're doing non main-series games! :D the ending to this game destroyed me as a kid omg

When you got my first, it was hard enough, but choosing my first partner brought back all sorts of emotions I didn’t know I still have. This game gives me ALL the emotions even now.

I really like the author making small jokes to make it a bit more fun. Was a nice breath of fresh air

I remember this was my first pokemon game. I got stuck and never played another pokemon game again.

I've played and replayed the PMD games dozens of times, and I never knew you could link more than two moves together until watching this video :O

this makes me wanna play all the mystery dungeons again! i got red rescue team back in the day when i was 12 years old when it came out! thanks for the nostalgia hahaha love the vid! Ps not a pokemon watcher so funny how this got in my recommended

This is my most favorite pokemon game of all time. Thank you for this video I will cherish it. I plan on playing the remake on the switch on my channel soon actually!

When I was a kid I begged my mum to buy me this guide, I never had the game, but I read it over amd over as I liked it a lot, then after many years I got to play it and use it when I was playing it

The stun seed backwards joke is honestly one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen on KZfaq. Good stuff dude 😂

I remember getting jump scared by a ghost-type Pokemon popping out of a wall Dunno why I didnt expect that

Yes the mystery dungeon series is so good! You gotta do explorers of sky next!

I played this game recently and it quickly became my favorite just because of its story. Also, I do remember that Mt. Blaze was rumoured to be extremely difficult by townspokémon but I really didn't find it really difficult ... It was ... Average. We made it through more unscathed than we were supposed to. So when we were unexpectedly sent to the Sky Tower, I was like, ‘ Okay we have cleared the main dungeon in Magma Cavern so this one should be small and manageable right? ’ Boy, not only was it about 23-24 floors high ( let alone 9 more floors ) but I wiped out atleast 5-6 times. Sky Tower was the first huge roadblock for me after understanding the mechanics of this game. I am atleast thankful that Rayquaza didn't Hyper Beam any of my friends or me.

Owning any pokemon manual makes you feel like a million Poundollars

Hey... really quick... Ray-quah-zuh

duuude i was waiting for this

Man, I got cubone when I first got the game, I loved that cubone so much and my partner was Pikachu. The ground electric combo was pretty nice.

I literally did not know there was a GBA version. I assumed both were on the DS! That’s crazy.

This game is the reason why I love absol because it ends up being incredibly powerful due to its move pool. The final boss is a joke when you have a hero or partner that can learn ice beam and you teach ice beam to absol as well and you can literally blow through its HP in like three to four turns

B and A to heal?! How'd I beat the game not knowing that as a kid lol

I remembered back in the day where you could just create your own missions. I did the ruins and created only "find" missions at the highest levels and on "find" missions you only need to have it in your inventory. I cheesed so many ranks like that

"This is by far the longest dungeon in this game" Bro did NOT make it to Wish Cave

PaPaSea: I never beat PMD as a kid Also PaPaSea: I remember evolving in this game To be fair the post game being bigger than the main game is normal for the PMD series

this was a good video, You should do explorers of sky next!

I remember getting both when they came out as a kid. I loved them so much

"This is by far the longest dungeon in the game" 20:31 He clearly hasn't played the post-game lol, try purity forest, wish cave, or silver trench if you want longer ones

I had a completely different guide as a kid that seems like it was way better. Full pokedex in the back, every dungeon had a floor guide with the floors each Pokémon would spawn and at what level and even a flow chart for the post game

Love this, keep it up

I definitely had this game's guide and I'm living for this video

Wow I can't believe they had us go through a 34 floor dungeon in this game's story. Having played Explorers of Sky recently, it felt very weird that the largest main story dungeon was like 15 floors so I barely ever felt challenged. I'd suggest playing Explorers of Sky since they improved so much in terms of game mechanics, repetitiveness, and extra useful content during the main story... but the boss fights and dungeons are seriously going to feel like you're playing on easy mode compared to the Rescue Team games. Supplies are never an issue and you'd be doing 100+ damage per hit against most bosses compared to your like 30 damage against Rayquaza. The post-game is really awesome too if you end up enjoying it enough.

i dont ever remember beating the game until a few months ago, despite me remembering clear as day getting to the mandatory absol recruit

I too have a PMD RRT/BRT guide. By a different publisher, worn over the years and missing half the Pokédex in the back. It's a priceless treasure.

I have this guide book and the ones for darkness and time as well as sky and lemme tell you they are thick! Super useful especially for red rescue team though because how you unlock some post game dungeons can be a bit obtuse.

Them removing the fried areas in the new version was the most blatant back stab I've ever seen!

ngl tho, i love the visual change of the magma cavern the further you progress

21:47 As a fan of MandJTV, I approve

On gengar posibly helping create the teleport gem he probably changed mind when he saw gardevoir again, also after the metorite is destroyed he clearly saved both you and your partner and only pretended that he was taking you else where and somehow "got lost"

I have a strong phobia with those dungeon Kecleon shops. Whenever I replay a dungeon game and see one I panic then nope the fuck out. Im both serious and not serious about the phobia thing.

10/10 game, 10/10 story, 10/10 post game.

Back when these games were Hot Topic on the game spot forums I wrote a program in visual basic that allowed you to generate your own wonder codes for wondermail.. It was pretty fun learning how to do the bitwise operations to make the codes work. However when windows 7 came out the program stopped working correctly.

The guide states you can have Kecleon join your team if you're above level 90, but what it doesn't mention is that Kecleon's recruitment rate is at a level *below* zero, so you have to have a Friend Bow to even bring the chance slightly above zero, and even then it's only 0.1%!!

oh my god oh my god oh my god oh my god, this is the video i didn't know i wanted but love it

Man the only pokemon game that felt like an actual adventure was pokemon crystal but then i decided to play blue rescue team and skies and i got emotional at the ends

I've voted almost every poll for Mystery Dungeon to win. At long last! Please continue with the others!

I'M SO DAMN HYPED FOR THIS HELLO Can't wait for the Explorers of Sky vid ❤️

Blue Rescue Team is one of the very few guides I own. I remember referencing it constantly to find Pokémon. I spent a playthrough ranking up to Gold just to see what Team Alakazam says about it and was very disappointed that they failed to acknowledge me. And then I lost all of my items when playing as Mew for the first time (after spending hours finally getting it) and I cried and stopped that playthrough to start over.

pmd is my favorite pokemin games and i love that you covered them right infront of my birthday! 🥳

i was always too scared to steal from Kecleon after the first time lol

21:49 Mikey would probably like this!

I actually had rrt/brt guide when i played through them as a kid. Ended up learning about the smeargle softlock from it.

You must have actually completed the game as a kid, because evolving is part of the post-game.

Love the Team Sky reference lol

Kecleon is, as far as I know, completely unrecruitable. The value that determines how often it will ask to join your team is negative, meaning it will never ask. Though I do remember seeing a video on how to actually recurit it with the help of some items and an IQ skill...

The conclusion to Gengar's character arc is in the post-game. All becomes sorta clear them.

PMD Protag: I must return to my homeworld. My people need me

Aaah mystery dungeon was my jam, can’t wait to watch this
