Appendix:Mystery Dungeon walkthrough/Chapter 0: Difference between revisions

Line 1: Line 1:
In the '''{{g|Mystery Dungeon}}''' games, the game starts with a small personality test. This will involve a random question from 8 out of 14 categories, with each category leaning towards a particular personality type.  Once the {{player}} has been asked the full eight questions, he or she will be given a final question that simply asks for their gender. Once this has been answered, the results are all tallied and his or her final personality and resulting [[Pokémon (species)|Pokémon]] is determined.
{{incomplete}}
==The Personality Quiz==
The game begins with the following words:
:''Welcome!''
:''This is the portal that leads to the world of Pokémon!''
:''Before I can let you through, I have several questions for you.''
:''I want you to answer them sincerely.''
:''Are you ready?''
:''OK... Let the interview begin!''
The personality test will then follow. The Pokémon will be chosen from the nature gathered in points from each question.


The player will then be given a Pokémon relating to the personality type that he or she scored highest in. In the event of a tie between multiple personality types, one will be chosen randomly out of those the test-taker scored highest in. Finally, the player's choice of gender dictates which of two Pokémon he or she will get for that personality.
===Gender differences===
 
If you are a boy you will not be able to become Eevee, Chikorita, or Skitty. If you are a

Note that this gives a choice of 16 possible Pokémon, with 6 of them unique to a particular gender.  Cyndaquil, Machop and Meowth are only available to males, while Chikorita, Eevee and Skitty are only available to females.
The questions in the personality test are:
 
Once the player's Pokémon has been chosen, he or she will be given a choice of partner. The available partners are:
 
*Bulbasaur
*Charmander
*Squirtle
*Chikorita 
*Cyndaquil 
*Totodile
*Treecko   
*Torchic   
*Mudkip
*Pikachu
 
The player is unable to choose a partner that matches the [[type]] of your his or her own Pokémon. Hence, Bulbasaur, Chikorita and Treecko cannot choose a {{type|Grass}} partner; Charmander, Cyndaquil and Torchic cannot choose a {{type|Fire}} partner; and Squirtle, Totodile, Mudkip and Psyduck cannot choose a {{type|Water}} partner. Furthermore, if the player gets Pikachu as a result of the personality test, he or she cannot also choose Pikachu as your partner.
 
==Strategy==
For the test-taker to get a particular Pokémon, he/she should keep the following in mind:
* Six of the sixteen possible Pokémon are available to one gender only - they will not be possible to get if the wrong gender is picked.
* The personality of the intended Pokémon should be noted. The test-taker should always answer questions that increase that personality trait.
* When asked a question that doesn't have an answer for the player's chosen personality, the player should pick answers that increase traits that they haven't answered for yet and have low increases. It's often better to answer a question with something that increases a bunch of traits by 1 instead of an answer that increases a single trait by two or even three.
 
If the chosen trait is increased high enough and the rest are kept below that, then the chosen Pokémon will be obtained. There is some luck involved with which questions will be asked, however.
 
==The Questions==
The test-taker will only be asked one question out of any Category chosen, unless his/her answer to a question deliberately redirects the test-taker to another question within that category. The test-taker will also only be asked questions from 8 Categories maximum before he/she is given the final question to determine the test-taker's gender.
