Dungeon status
Dungeon status is a mechanic in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series that indicates the conditions of a dungeon floor. It is also occasionally referred to as floor status or condition in certain move or item descriptions.
Although the mechanic existed since Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team, it was further expanded upon in Gates to Infinity where dungeon status could now be viewed in the dungeon menu. Unlike status conditions, these conditions affect the whole floor.
Availability
The availability of dungeon statuses differs between games, and changes in Ability and item effects can affect whether a dungeon status is available. For example, the Radar Orb, which previously caused a status condition, now causes a dungeon status from Rescue Team DX.
