'''Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|ポケモン不思議のダンジョン　空の探検隊|ポケモンふしぎのダンジョン　そらのたんけんたい}}''' ''Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky'') is a game developed by [[Chunsoft]]. It is an enhanced version of {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness}}, similar to how {{game|Platinum}} is an enhanced version of {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}. It is the fifth entry in the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series]]. The game was first announced in [[CoroCoro]], which released the first details in January 2009. It was officially released in Japan on April 18, 2009 and in North America on October 12, 2009.

==New features==

* Players can now play the music used in the game with the '''[[Sky Jukebox]]'''.

* Five [[Special Episode]]s are introduced, which can be played beside the main game.

** [[Poké]] stored in {{DL|Treasure Town|Duskull Bank}} and items stored in [[Kangaskhan Storage]] can be used in both the Special Episodes and the main game.

* There is a new place called '''[[Spinda's Café]]''' where the following can be found:

** '''Recycle Shop''' allows players to exchange excess items for other items. The more items exchanged, the better the items available will be. Players may also trade items for [[Prize Ticket]]s (more kinds of tickets can be unlocked by a team's rank; for example, Silver Tickets are only available to teams in the Silver rank). Prize tickets can be used in a lottery, where the player gets to choose from three colors for the drawing (red, blue, and yellow). The player can sometimes get rare items this way.

** The player's team recruits who are currently in the party can now be found in Spinda's Café instead of the crossroads (once it opens).

* Tradeable items can be traded for any others now, provided they are available at [[Croagunk's Swap Shop]].

* Using DS Download Play, the player can send their friends a demo of the game.

* A new item called the [[Sky Gift]] can be obtained in an area consisting of ten dungeons called [[Sky Peak Mountain Path]].

** The same applies for {{p|Mewtwo}}, but it can be fought in [[Sky Stairway]] instead.

** Jirachi is now fought in [[Star Cave]], only accessible through [[Wonder Mail]] codes or Spinda's Café. The Special Episode "[[Bidoof's Wish]]" must be completed first.

* When the introduction screen for each chapter is shown, there is now an image in the background based on what will happen in that chapter.

* In the beginning when the game asks if the player has played Time/Darkness, and if the player answers yes, some dungeon Pokémon will have their recruitment rate doubled.

* Certain moves have been slightly modified, such as their base power.

* {{a|Storm Drain}} and {{a|Lightning Rod}} now draw moves only from the same room, rather than entire floor.

* The move summary now displays approximation of their accuracy and power (if applicable).

* Unlike in Time and Darkness, the player's held item is no longer unequipped at the end of the day.
