Marowak Dojo: Difference between revisions

The '''Marowak Dojo''' is a training facility in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]] and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky]] located in [[Treasure Town]]. It is run by {{p|Marowak}}, hence its name. It is similar to the [[Makuhita Dojo]] from the original [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]] games. Its main purpose is to provide extra dungeons for exploration teams to progress and travel through, thus training team members as desired.

It is composed of training mazes rather than dungeons. There are initially ten training mazes found in the Dojo, listed below. After the credits, the [[Final Maze]] will appear separate from these ten. The Explorer Maze will also appear after the credits, but only when the player receives a team from another game over wireless communications. It has only one floor, in which the team received can be battled and recruited.

{{main|Dungeon#Training maze structures}}

Training mazes are just like ordinary mystery dungeons, except they are much shorter. Each training maze is only five floors in length. Players will not lose any money or items they found if they faint while in the type-based and Explorer mazes, however they must {{tt|hand over|lose}} all items in order to enter. The standard item loss criteria is placed on players should they faint in the Final Maze, however.

The mazes contain Pokémon and aesthetic effects that mostly match the type(s) selected. For example, the Dark/Fire maze contains {{t|Dark}} and {{type|Fire}} Pokémon, along with terrain and background effects that match those types (lava, black tiles, etc). Pokémon that are partially the type selected may also appear. Such an example is {{p|Monferno}}, which may appear both in the Dark/Fire maze and the Fighting/Psychic maze (as it is a {{2t|Fire|Fighting}}-type Pokémon).

The Explorer Maze will contain one to four Pokémon of the sending player's choosing, as they will send the roster of those particular Pokémon over to the receiving player's game.

The Final Maze has a specific set of Pokémon, which includes a variety of species, types and other factors.

*{{t|Dragon}} Maze

{{main|Final Maze}}

The Final Maze does not have a dominant type, but it does have a specific set of Pokémon.

{{mdloc|146|Moltres|40|game=timeanddarkness|45|30}}

{{mdloc/f|2={{tt|Most of the Pokémon|all except Jirachi, Suicune, and Moltres, who have a specific floor they can be found on}} can be found on any floor of the dungeon.}}

To access the Final Maze, players must go through the entrance on the left side of the dojo. To access the other eleven mazes, players must use the entrance on the right.

*In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky]], a remix of the music from the [[Makuhita Dojo]] plays while the player is in the training mazes, while in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]] a {{tt|completely different track|known as Random Dungeon Theme 2, according to the Sky Jukebox}} plays. In Explorers of Sky, players can listen to the old version by selecting track 99 from the [[Sky Jukebox]], and the newer version by selecting track 101. Both tracks are available as soon as the Sky Jukebox is obtained.

**Also, in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]] in the room with the teleporter leading to the [[Final Maze]], no music plays, while in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky]], the sound effects of the Rainbow Stoneship will play as the player nears the teleporter.

*Apparently, {{p|Marowak}} closed the dojo during the time of the Special Episode [[Bidoof's Wish]].

*Since the Marowak Dojo requires that all items be "handed over", or lost, before a player may enter the training mazes, it serves as a way to throw out multiple items at once.

*All of the training mazes based on two types have a type configuration that matches the types of one or more Pokémon.

**The {{2t|Rock|Water}} Maze's type configuration is the same as {{p|Omastar}}'s.

**The {{2t|Electric|Steel}} Maze's type configuration is the same as {{p|Magnemite}}'s.

**The {{2t|Ice|Ground}} Maze's type configuration is the same as {{p|Mamoswine}}'s.

**The {{2t|Fighting|Psychic}} Maze's type configuration is the same as {{p|Medicham}}'s.

**The {{2t|Poison|Bug}} Maze's type configuration is the same as {{p|Beedrill}}'s.
