Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Blue Rescue Team and Red Rescue Team/Mt. Steel

Between Missions
Once back from the last mission you sleep and have a strange dream. It feels familiar but nothing can be made out. Upon waking up the dream is forgotten.

Your partner has been waiting to meet you outside. Both of you find some disappointing news at the mailbox. There are no new missions or mail of any kind today.

Pokemon Square
The partner expected this since your rescue team was only recently made. Instead he is going to give you a grand tour of the Pokémon Square and most importantly, the bulletin board beside the Pelliper Post Office.


 * Kecleon Shop
 * This shared shop is where items can be bought and sold. Even though they have a relatively small stock, the inventory resets and changes every day(after sleeping/saving). It is a good idea to take a look at their inventory every day for a desirable TM or a big apple.
 * The Green Kecleon sells normal items like apples, berries, and gravelrocks
 * The Purple Kecleon sells expensive items like Orbs and TMs.
 * Felicity Bank
 * The Persian that runs this bank will watch over your poké. If there is any chance you will be dying in a dungeon it is best to leave all of your poké with her since when you die all the money on you will be gone.
 * Gulpin Link Shop
 * For 150 Poké Gulpin will happily link 2 of your moves with each other. This will cause them to be used at the same time. If you want to learn mroe about linking, read the Battle Concepts.
 * Kangaskhan Storage
 * Kangaskhan will let you drop off your items here for safe keeping. This not only keeps an item safe for use late but it frees up your relatively small inventory space for items found in dungeons.
 * Good things to always have a couple saved: When you have surplus Apples and berries it is best to save at least a few of them. Many future dungeons are incredibly long and filled with Pokémon that cause status effects. TMs and Gummies are good to hold onto for improving yourself and your Pokémon team mates.
 * Pelliper Post Office
 * This is where Pokémon come to get help by sending letters to rescue teams. Use their bulletin board outside to sign up for more missions for additional Poké, items, and rank. Often when finishing a mission the thankful Pokémon will leave a tip of good items or Poké
 * The Bulletin Board
 * This is where new non-story related missions can be found. Like the Kecleon shop the things here are randomly different each day. Common rewards are Poké or items. On rare occasions there are rewards like friend areas.

Going on random missions from the bulletin board and wandering around town is now available. To begin the Mt. Steel story arc just go to the far right to the Pelliper Post office's bulletin board. Do a mission in Tiny Woods or Thunderwave Cave. If there are multiple missions for the same location on the bulletin board you can accept all of them and do them all in one outing. After the mission and you get home the Mt. Steel story arc will begin.

Mt. Steel
After given the option to save you have the same dream. An earthquake startles the dream. In the morning you awaken to a voice that seems to be coming from nowhere. It turns out to be an upset Dugtrio that is distressed by the disappearance of their child, Diglett. Once outside your partner joins you and the Dugtrio finally

A Skarmory took Diglett and flew to the top of Mt. Steel. Since the slopes are made of rock Dugtrio can't go up there. Your rescue team has a new important mission.

Boss Battle: Skarmory
This is the very first boss you have fought yet, and will undoubtedly be the toughest foe you have faced yet. Since his type is Steel/Flying, Cyndaquil, Charmander, and Torchic will have it much easier than the rest. If you picked a Grass type, you had better have a strong Fire type team mate to deal out the damage.

After Skarmory falls, he will fly off, giving you access to the Diglett. After saving it, you will warp back out of the dungeon, and meet the greatly relieved friends.
