Epic! This is the definitive underrated Pokemon game.,
Okay. I’ve taken the time to complete this game from beginning to end, and now I’m ready to share a few thoughts.
Now, first and foremost: what’s different between this game and Explorers of Time/Darkness?
“Explorers of Sky” is what a fan would call a “third version game”: it’s essentially the same game as Explorers of Time/Darkness, but included within are some extensions to the gameplay and the story. Like the previous games, you begin by answering a series of questions that will determine which Pokemon you’ll play as, and then you’ll pick a partner. They’ve added a few more characters to play as in this game: Riolu, Vulpix, Phanphy, and Shinx, with the re-inclusion of Eevee. After that, you begin your adventure — and that’s where the story kicks in.
Here’s the rundown: over Time/Darkness, Explorers of the Sky extends the game in the following ways:
> It has about a half dozen new dungeons to explore.
> It has included new locations such as Spinda’s Juice Bar, Wynaut’s Recycle Shop, and the Secret Bazaar, not to mention a few secrets here and there, all which become accessible as you play the main game.
> It has introduced a few new items, including the ever-amusing “Look-a-like” items. Watch out for Reviser Seeds!
> Some communication extensions, but it’s probably not worth mentioning. Really, there’s not enough to talk about.
> The good stuff: this game provides five “special” episodes, which become accessible through the main menu screen, and a couple additional “after-credits” side-episodes.
> The Sky Jukebox, which allows you to access the many, MANY awesome tunes this game provides.
> Finally, a few tweaks to the graphics and dialogue, a couple of gameplay changes, and a revamp on the explorer ranking system (there are different degrees of Master Rank now).
So, that’s the basic list of upgrades from Time/Darkness. Now, a few categorized details about the game itself:
—Story/Plot/Characters—–
This is by far the biggest promotion point in playing this game. The story is long, epic, engaging, and thought-provoking – and it’s surprisingly lacking in the common clichés that tend to crop up in video games/movies. This game heralds the most in-depth plot of all Pokemon games to date, and it’s almost a shame that Nintendo wouldn’t make this game into a full spin-off anime series.
Now, the main story is essentially the same from Time/Darkness. The special episodes are the key differences from the previous games. Depending on how much you “care” about the characters and the Mystery Dungeon universe, you may or may not be satisfied with these additions. Regardless, all of these episodes are unlocked as you play through the main game, and you can access them through the main menu: therefore, you can play them at any time.
There are five total:
> You’ve got “Bidoof’s Wish,” which, according to a certain IGN reviewer, is about “Bidoof’s self-esteem issues.” It’s a cute story, but depending how much you actually care about Bidoof, who is after all a minor character, you may find this episode a bit of an unnecessary annoyance.
> You’ll eventually get “Igglybuff the Prodigy,” which relates Guildmaster Wigglytuff’s humble beginnings. Again, it depends on how much you care about the Guildmaster as a character – which may be a bit easier, since Guildmaster Wigglytuff is AWESOME. Enough said.
> Soon comes the episode “Today’s `Oh-My-Gosh’,” featuring Sunflora. Just like the previous two, your enjoyment lingers on what you think of Sunflora as a character. Now, I don’t about Sunflora as a character, but I can say that she’s pretty terrible in surviving any of this episode’s dungeons. Seriously, this may be my least favorite special episode, because Sunflora’s moves and stats make the game frustratingly difficult. Especially since the dungeons are mostly fire-based.
> “Here Comes Team Charm!” I love this episode because, for some reason, Team Charm makes me think of a Pokemon-version of Charlie’s Angels. Can’t beat that theme music either–kind of like a super-cool, super-agent sort of theme, like Austin Powers.
> “In the Future of Darkness” is by far the best episode, because obviously you veterans of Time/Darkness want to know what happened to Grovyle in the previous game. Well, don’t you? Of course you do. It’s very satisfying, and that’s all I’ll say.
—Game Play / Difficulty—–
The gameplay is either strangely addicting…or boring, depending on what sort of temperament you have as a gamer. Basically, you seek to get your team through a “dungeon” of a certain number of floors. Each floor requires you to explore the area until you reach a randomly-located staircase. Once you reach the staircase, you move on to the next floor. Once you’ve cleared the last floor, you’ve cleared the dungeon…

|My Personal Anti-Depressent…,
After playing GOW, RE, etc, I got tired of the shoot’em up gore fests that people seem to love these days. So, I picked this title up.
This is the most beautiful, heart warming and uplifting tale I have seen in a long time. I truly didn’t believe a movie, or book,
{especially not a video game!}, to tell such a perfect story. It’s fun, friendly and full of surprises. Highly recommended. 5/5

|Explorer Vulpix!,
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Sky is A very fun game. You start by choosing the Pokemon you will play as by answering A personality test, Then you choose your partner. Game play is easy and fun, The controls are pretty simple. I’m playing as a Vulpix, (They are very cute!) The story is very deep and entertaining, Plus, there are more Pokemon to play as. The graphics are very nice 2D type graphics, (I love 2D graphics,) Bright,colorful graphics are A plus. Turn-based dungeon battles are exciting and fun, The bosses are tough but not impossible, And there are lots of different Pokemon to talk to,Shops to visit, And beautiful sights to see. As A Pokemon you travel into and through ever-changing dungeons, (Hence the name!) While your in dungeons you can find and use items,battle wild Pokemon, And advance to new floors, and more. Overall A fantastic game.
