018Pidgeot.png It has been suggested that this article be moved to Personality quiz (Explorers of Time, Darkness, and Sky).
Please discuss whether or not to move it on its talk page.

The Personality Quiz

The game begins with the following words:

Welcome!
This is the portal that leads to the world inhabited only by Pokémon.
Beyond this gateway, many new adventures and fresh experiences await your arrival!
Before you depart for the adventure, you must answer some questions.
Be truthful when you answer them!
Now, are you ready?
Then...let the questions begin!

The personality test will then follow. The Pokémon you will be will be chosen from the nature gathered in points from each question. You can play as one of the following Pokémon, but those marked with a * cannot be chosen as your partner:
