In the Nintendo DS | In the Nintendo DS version, one exclusive area exists called the ''Dimensional Vortex''. The Dimensional Vortex is a dungeon that can only be accessed after beating the game at least once. When you return to your saved game, three new Gates will have appeared in separate time periods (12,000 B.C., 1000 A.D., and 2300 A.D.). | ||
Like other dungeons in the game, the Dimensional Vortex varies depending on which time period you're in when you pass through the gate. Each time period specifies the reward from completing the dungeon: a permanent upgrade to one of three characters. | Like other dungeons in the game, the Dimensional Vortex varies depending on which time period you're in when you pass through the gate.

Move on to fight Alabaster Shade, a Marle look-a-like. | ||

Not only does the Eggsterminator have enough health to be its own boss, but it also has more attacks than Lucca's shade does. It also absorbs MP from you every time you attack, which can be annoying. Kill Lucca's shade first because it's weaker, despite it being the main boss, then kill the Eggsterminator second. | |||

You'll enter a greenish room. When you make it to a large pond in the center of the room, you'll run into Dalton who will engage you. | |||

Dalton is still pretty easy although he'll launch a couple attacks like Fire II, and Ice II. When you finish him off, he'll try to kill you with a burp attack (slightly more powered than the first one) and he'll be finished.}} | |||
Dalton will be pretty angry that you beat him again, so he'll say something about going to Porre to raise an army. Although he says this, he will not appear anywhere in the town in either timezone. This is a reference to [[Chrono Cross]] in which Porre takes over the land where the game takes place and serves to set up a reasoning for Porre to invade. | |||

This time, it's using Schala in place of Queen Zeal. To make things easy, make sure you have Golden Studs equipped on ''everyone''. He'll start off with devouring a few dreams and knocking some HP out of you. This guy can do some nasty moves. You can beat him with Chrono, Magus, and Marle at around level 60. Hammer him with Dark Matter, Luminaire, and use Marle's Haste technique to speed things up. After knocking out 10,000 HP, Dream Devourer will create a protective shield on himself. | ||

Dream Devourer's shield makes it so magic damage is absorbed into either HP or MP. If you make the mistake of attacking it with magic damage, he'll counterattack you with Mana Reaver. With the Rainbow and the scythe you got in the Lost Sanctum, Chrono and Magus should have fairly high damage. Use moves like Frenzy and have Marle heal while Magus attacks with his weapon. When it does the little fireworks show Lavos core did before Resurrection, its defense will be lowered while it charges up for an attack similar to the one from the one at the Ocean Palace Lavos (destruction rains from the heavens). | |||
Dream Devourer's defense will now permanently lower more and more each time it charges up for one of those attacks. Eventually it will fire one of those beams it used on Future Magus.}} | |||
