Note: Some Pokémon are restricted to a specific gender. If the personality comes up as N/A then they are not available for that gender. Your gender is asked at the end of the Personality Quiz.

Partner Pokémon[edit | edit source]

Partner Pokémon are the Pokémon that accompany you throughout your entire Story Mode adventure. The only restrictions are that you cannot pick a partner Pokémon with the same type as yours; that is, if you got a Charmander as your starter, you cannot pick a Charmander (obviously), a Vulpix, a Cyndaquil, a Torchic, or a Chimchar. Also, you cannot start as a Meowth or Munchlax; they can only be selected as a partner.

Quiz Questions[edit | edit source]

The quiz always starts by asking:

Did you play Explorers of Time or Explorers of Darkness?

This doesn't give any personality points by itself, but if you answer "Yes", 4 points will be added for the personality types of the new starters introduced in Explorers of Sky (Phanpy, Shinx, and Riolu if male; Vulpix and Eevee if female), and certain Pokémon's base recruit rate will be doubled as long as you haven't recruited them already.

If you want to play as a specific Pokémon, look up the questions you're asked, and choose whichever answer matches that Pokémon's personality. You will only be asked 8 of these questions, so you may have to restart the game several times before you get the personality you want.
