The next day, the Pokémon tells the Paradise Pokémon about what happened in the dream. Everyone becomes very worried. The Pokémon meet Umbreon and Espeon on top of the hill, as they open the Magnagate portal. Only the playable and partner Pokémon enter the Magnagate portal.

That night, Munna communicates with the playable Pokémon again, as the Pokémon wakes up startled. The playable Pokémon wakes up their partner, who is startled. The playable Pokémon tells its partner about the dream. The Pokémon may now enter the [[Forest of Shadows]] dungeon. After making it through the dungeon, the Pokémon end up in a very dark area.

All of a sudden Munna looks fine, as two Chandelure appear, followed by Toxicroak, four Excadrill, two {{p|Gigalith}}, and a Purugly. The enemies move in, as the playable and partner Pokémon fight the enemies on their own in the darkness. The playable Pokémon is shown running away, as it realizes that its partner is no longer coming along with it. The Pokémon can now enter the dungeon called [[Daybreak Mountain]]. After making it passed the 7F, the playable Pokémon arrives at a tall cliff. Gigalith, Chandelure, and Toxicroak corner the Pokémon. After defeating the enemies in a boss battle, {{p|Salamence}} and two Excadrill appear. The two Excadrill go after the playable Pokémon, as they knock it down. Salamence roars and prepares to finish the Pokémon off, as Hydreigon appears and uses Dragon Pulse to stop Salamence. Hydreigon knocks the playable Pokémon off the cliff, as it surprises the enemies. Hydreigon flies down to get the playable Pokémon.

The player starts out as their partner Pokémon for several days until they complete the [[Worldcore]] and make a wish for their playable Pokémon to return. The player decides whether to return or not and evolution may not happen until they return to Pokémon Paradise. After the player returns to Pokémon Paradise and completes one dungeon, both Pokémon and recruited Pokémon may now evolve if the player chooses to evolve them inside of dungeons. The leading Pokémon may also be changed as well.

[[File:localwireless.png|thumb|250px|right|Multiplayer mode with three other players.]]
==Companion Mode and Local Wireless==
One job request after the Challenge Board has appeared, these two options will be available from the menu.  In Companion Mode, the game can temporarily switch to other recruited Pokémon as the main player.  All normal functions are available and items and money collected are carried over to story mode.  In this mode, the player cannot leave Pokémon Paradise and [[Cinccino]], [[Rampardos]] and [[Cofagrigus]] from Post Town will appear there to function as their individual shops. 
Local Wireless can only be accessed in Companion Mode.  This provides multiplayer and is the only way to have more than one player-controlled Pokémon when on Challenge job requests.
[[File:Teamattack.png|thumb|upright|250px|left|Team Attack]]
==Team Attack==
This is a new type of special attack accessed after the Team Badge is obtained.  The player has to build this up in dungeons, using moves and defeating wild Pokémon.  Once it's built up, the team attack logo will be displayed on the touch screen when L is pressed.  It emits a green light and is significantly stronger than regular moves, attacking all enemies in the room and restoring HP, increasing accuracy, etc.

==Hubs and other out-of-dungeon locations==
Some dungeons have floors where the player can roam around freely and has to complete various tasks in order to proceed.  They contain wild Pokémon, changing the floor to a regular grid-like floor during a battle.


==Shops==
The crossroads provides access to non-job request dungeons, Post Town and Pokémon Paradise.
As with past [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]] games this game features shops. [[Kangaskhan Storage]] and [[Duskull Bank]] has been removed in favor of a storage chest next to Kecleon Shop that serves the same functions, known as the Deposit Box. There is also one in the [[Pokémon Paradise]], and they can be used to store money and items, as well as building materials and treasure boxes. Like in the original Pokémon Mystery Dungeon games, items are collective and are grouped based on item type rather than being individual items.


As the player progresses throughout the game, they can change the town by adding new shops to their own personal liking; similarly to [[Join Avenue]] from {{2v2|Black|White|2}}.
