Appendix:Mystery Dungeon walkthrough/Chapter 2: Difference between revisions

Once Skarmory is defeated, {{DL|List of Mystery Dungeon characters|Diglett}} is safe and you are free to head back. {{DL|List of Mystery Dungeon characters|Magnemite}} wants to join your team, but there isn't a place where it could live. After you are back in [[Pokémon Square]], Friend Areas will be unlocked after a short talk with Magnemite and {{DL|List of Mystery Dungeon characters|Wigglytuff}}. Now you can buy [[Friend Area]]s at the {{DL|Pokémon Square|Wigglytuff Club}} and pickup new recruits. Magnemite joins your team after Wigglytuff gives you the [[Friend Area]]s {{fa|Mist-Rise Forest}} and {{fa|Power Plant}} for free. Magnemite goes to live in Power Plant.

Complete at least three rescue jobs to encounter an event with [[Team Meanies]]. They will "steal" all of the rescue jobs in your mailbox (they will still be there anyway). {{DL|List of Mystery Dungeon characters|Pelipper}} will bring another job to your mailbox immediately after. Complete two more rescue jobs to bring {{mdc|Caterpie|1}} to your base. He will explain that his friend {{mdc|Metapod|1}} is trapped in [[Sinister Woods]], and how he wants you to rescue him. Team Meanies will come up behind you, and say they will do the mission instead. Take some time to train your team. If you want, take a new recruit to Sinister Woods. It will help on the boss fight.

This dungeon is a little harder. Remember to bring several {{mdc|food}} items like {{DL|Food (Mystery Dungeon)|Apples}} and few {{DL|Health drink|Max Elixirs}} to restore PP. Having a third team member makes clearing the dungeon easier.

You might need to use some tactics to defeat your second boss. If you have Magnemite that joined your team, it will be easier as Magnemite resists all attacks that Team Meanies have. Gengar is dangerous because of its {{m|Curse}} and {{m|Hypnosis}}. Medicham has  {{m|ThunderPunch}}, but they won't be dangerous because Medicham is Team Meanies' lowest [[Level|leveled]] member. Ekans can be annoying, but it shouldn't cause any problems for high-leveled teams.

After defeating Team Meanies, Metapod appears and is rescued.

When you wake up, head to Pokémon Square and watch {{DL|List of Mystery Dungeon characters|Jumpluff}} beg {{DL|List of Mystery Dungeon characters|Shiftry}} to create wind so another Jumpluff can escape from [[Silent Chasm]]. [[Team A.C.T.]] will then come and make Shiftry go.  

Complete Rescue Missions, train your team or recruit new team members until Jumpluff will come to your team base and say that Shiftry never came back. Jumpluff will take you to the entrance of Silent Chasm. At the entrance, you will be asked a number of questions, and no matter what you answer, it will lead to your rescue team going into Silent Chasm to rescue Shiftry.

This dungeon is quite hard if you aren't prepared. Most of Pokémon in Silent Chasm hit hard and may cause some problems to inexperienced players. If you want to play safe, train your team more before going to Silent Chasm. You should watch out for {{p|Beedrill}}, {{p|Dustox}}, {{p|Yanma}}, and {{p|Farfetch'd}}.

At the end of Silent Chasm you will meet Zapdos. You will be able to save Jumpluff without a fight, but Zapdos flies off to Mt. Thunder with Shiftry.

This will be a hard fight. {{m|Agility}} boosts Zapdos's Movement Speed, allowing it to effectively move and attack in the same turn, making tactical retreat to heal useless. {{m|Thunder Wave}} can be annoying, so [[Cheri Berry|Cheri Berries]] will be useful. {{m|Peck}} and {{m|ThunderShock}} hit hard, but if you're lucky, Zapdos won't use them at all. [[Wonder Orb]]s can't be used in boss rooms, but {{DL|Throwing item|Gravelerocks}} and other useful items can be.

After Zapdos is defeated, you will be able to rescue Shiftry. Team A.C.T. will then show up, and Alakazam will reveal that he can tell you're a human, and suggests you to go to the top of [[Great Canyon]] and meet {{mdc|Xatu|1}}.
