===Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team===
At the beginning of the game, the player is presented with a quiz that decides which Pokémon he or she will play as, and then the partner is chosen (see below). The player and partner are the only playable Pokémon until the first mission is completed and a [[Friend Area]] is purchased. After the player has completed the main story, what Pokémon may be used as the main character is now an option, and the partner is not required for subsequent missions. If the partner Pokémon was knocked out during missions prior to finishing the main storyline, it counts as a failure of the mission.

Initially, the partner helps the player settle into a [[Team Base]]. Then, when their Rescue Team status is confirmed, the player and partner undertake a series of missions. During this time, they find out about [[Friend Area]]s from {{mdc|Wigglytuff|1}}, and also meet other rescue teams. After rescuing {{mdc|Shiftry|1}} at [[Mt. Thunder]], {{mdc|Alakazam|1}}, the leader of a famous rescue team who does not know how the player came to become a Pokémon, instructs the player and partner to see {{mdc|Xatu|1}} at the [[Hill of the Ancients]]. Xatu only knows of a link between the rise in the number of natural calamities in the world, and the player's transformation into a Pokémon. The player and partner see {{mdc|Whiscash|1}} the next day, and are told about the [[Ninetales legend]]. The day after, {{mdc|Gengar|1}} gathers the residents of the [[Pokémon Square]], claiming that the player is the cursed human from Ninetales' legend and is the cause of the calamities in the world, therefore should be eliminated. The player is attacked, but the partner brings the player to safety. It then berates the player for not responding in that situation. After being warned by Alakazam that rescue teams will be out in force to apprehend the player and its accomplices, the player and partner become fugitives. They defeat {{p|Moltres}} and {{p|Articuno}} in order to pass through [[Mt. Blaze]] and [[Frosty Forest]] respectively. The partner then hears about what {{mdc|Gardevoir|1}} told the player. They travel up [[Mt. Freeze]] but are caught by Alakazam's team. At that moment, Ninetales appears and stops them from fighting. Ninetales reveals that the player isn't the cursed human from its legend, and the cursed human isn't responsible for the natural calamities.  The partner hears this revelation with relief, but is then curious to know who the player really is.
The player and partner are welcomed on their return to Pokémon Square, and the residents chase Gengar out after finding out that it lied to them. While Alakazam's team attempt to quell {{p|Groudon}}, the player's Team Base undergoes a transformation with the help of three {{p|Mankey}} that the player and partner defeated at [[Uproar Forest]]. After it becomes clear that Alakazam's team are struggling to quell Groudon, a makeshift rescue team is sent to [[Magma Cavern]] to rescue them, but they are defeated, leaving the player and partner with no choice but to defeat Groudon and rescue Alakazam's team. After that, Xatu tells the residents of Pokémon Square about the ultimate calamity: a meteor about to strike the planet. Xatu knows that only {{mdc|Rayquaza}}, who lives atop the [[Sky Tower]], will be able to avert the meteor strike. Xatu, Alakazam and another Pokémon create a Teleport Gem to allow the player and partner access to the Sky Tower. The player and partner defeat Rayquaza and convince it to launch a {{m|Hyper Beam}} at the meteor. The player and partner are caught up but are saved and taken to the Hill of the Ancients. Just as the Pokémon that have gathered are about to celebrate, the player reveals that it must now return to its own world as a human being, and starts to disappear into a ball of light. The Pokémon, especially the partner, are left shocked and saddened by this. However, the player decides to return to the Pokémon world, reappearing in front of the partner and others at the Team Base.
In the post-game story, the player and partner discover that Snubbull underwent evolution, and became {{mdc|Granbull|1}}. When the player goes to see the Friend Areas after this, the partner proposes the idea of designating any one of their rescue team recruits as team leader. From then on, the partner is not required to be in the team for any missions, though may still appear beside the player for dialogue purposes.
