Djinn's Bottle (Japanese: マジンのつぼ Evil Spirit's Jar) is an item in Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon that is found at a random location in Sahra Town. When used inside a dungeon, it summons Hoopa as an ally, appearing either as Hoopa Confined or Hoopa Unbound, Unbound having significantly stronger offensive stats. If a Monster House is present on the floor, or if there are too many Pokémon on the floor, Hoopa may not be able to be summoned from its bottle. This can be a useful strategy to detect whether a Connection Orb Secret Base mission is a Monster House trap. Once summoned, Hoopa will attack nearby wild Pokémon, or will try to follow the party's leader if there are none. If Hoopa's HP is low, it will stop using moves and will try to avoid wild Pokémon instead. Hoopa can be forced to return to the Djinn's Bottle if it is used again, causing it to drop any item it stole with its Ability, Magician. Hoopa will also return to the Djinn's Bottle automatically if the stairs to the next floor are used.

Djinn's Bottle in Sahra Town

Hoopa is the only guest Pokémon that can gain experience points.

Once per floor, if Hoopa is talked to while summoned, it will ask if the player wants it to summon another Pokémon. If "Yes" is chosen, Hoopa will summon one random allied Legendary or Mythical Pokémon, a group of wild Pokémon that can appear on that floor, or nothing at all. The Djinn's Bottle will vanish and reappear in Sahra Town if Hoopa faints, the Djinn's Bottle is trashed, or the dungeon is exited.

During boss battles, Hoopa cannot summon additional ally Pokémon.

The Djinn's Bottle can be brought along on missions where only the hero and/or the partner are allowed to enter, allowing Hoopa to bypass the limitations imposed on the player by the story (Sand Dune of Spirits appears to be the only dungeon where this is applicable, as all other instances, the player is barred from visiting Sahra Town to get the Djinn's Bottle).

Unlike a regular item, the Djinn's Bottle cannot be deposited in the Deposit Box.

It appears identical in form and function to the Prison Bottle in the core series games.

Quotes

Sahra Town (first encounter)
"Oh? Quite clever of you to notice! That's right: I'm Hoopa! Hoopa of the Djinn's Bottle!"
"Summon me in a dungeon if you want to see something really good!"
"You've gotta put the Djinn's Bottle in your bag and bring it along with you to a dungeon."
"But that's the only place I'll go with you! And once the adventure's over, I'll zip right back here to Sahra Town with my bottle!"
"Shall I hop into your bag, there? Personally, I'm fine either way."
"...Huh? Where's the "CONNECTED"? Oh, I get it. Must be because I always come back here to my bottle. I'm special like that."
"Fine, then. I guess I'll take care of this by myself! Now... we're... CONNECTED!"
Sahra Town (subsequent encounters)
"Shall I hop into your bag, there? Personally, I'm fine either way."
If the player says no
"*scoff* Fine! Whatever! It's not like I really wanted to go with you or anything, anyway!"
If the player says yes while their bag is full
"Wh-what? Get serious! Your bag is so full of stuff that I can't fit in there! N-not that I really wanted to go with you or anything! So fine!"
In a dungeon
"Shall I summon other Pokémon with my rings? I don't care if I summon them or not, though."
"I will NOT return to the bottle! Well, if the bottle summons me, I have to, though..."
