Mystery Dungeon

I've played all of the side games.

I've played all of the rescue team, all of the mystery dungeon games, Pokemon Ranger, Pokemon Pinball.

And I don't know if anybody remembers Pokemon Quest.

That was an amazing game.

That would be a lot of fun to me.

But there's so many side games.

There's so many Mystery Dungeon games.

That's another game series that I really did love.

Archipelago is a multi-game randomizer that, uh, you can either use this to randomize multiple games together yourself, or the most common use is for multiplayer randomizer play.

That is to say, I might be going to Pokemon Mystery Dungeon and find Kodra's double jump in my game.

So all of the checks get randomized for all of the games, and so we're all unlocking each other's stuff and trying to communicate back and forwards.

back and forth.

Toho games.

Almost every Metroidvania you can possibly think of.

Pokemon Mystery Dungeon.

CrossCode.

I also feel like if you were gonna do Sceptile, don't do Sceptile, do Grovyle.

Because Grovyle was a pretty main character in the Mystery Dungeon games and was a pretty important character.

Was it Explorers of the Sky? Right? Like, I mean, that's a character people have a lot of love for.

If you're gonna do any character from the Grovyle-Trico line, do Grovyle.

Jackson.

Pokemon Mystery Dungeon?

Minus one point.

Yeah, that's what I'm scared of.

That's fun.

Why is Trico my favorite Pokemon?

Because he's one of the main characters in Mystery Dungeon.

Zach's on minus one.

All right.

I see here somebody saying that we need more Pokemon Mystery Dungeon games.

Yes, we do.

I mean, I agree, but I also have only gotten to play the one because I'm not as much into handheld Game Boy games.

I won't argue

with this, yeah.

Or Mystery Dungeon games.

First ones came out some time ago.

Yeah.

My favorite Pokemon game actually might be Pokemon Explorers of Sky, though, Mystery Dungeon.

Ooh.

That was cold.

Not really many spinoffs now.

Yeah.

Um, but you had the Mystery Dungeon spinoffs.

Pokemon Rangers.

Cause I just remember playing a lot of Emerald as a kid.

Um, but, three is mystery dungeon um red rescue team um that one's one of my favorites of all time and then after that i would probably i would probably put like pokemon conquest at like four and then i would prop i would probably put like sword and shield at five solely just because of draft league.

Yeah.

You

I really do.

And I, I mean, I don't, and I like, see, I like, I really like CA and I really like RCS too.

Um, and I think they're very innovative, but like mystery dungeon, um, And Pokemon Conquest are like just some of my favorite games in general.

Like I absolutely love Mystery Dungeon and I loved Pokemon Conquest.

So this part is gonna stop here for tonight, and then I am going to talk next week about your side Pokémon games.

I'm talking about Mystery Dungeon, I'm talking Pokémon Snap, I'm talking Pokémon Go, I'm talking about Detective Pikachu.

You know, I'm getting into those side games.

Pokémon Pinball, how do you feel about that? Well, there was one.

It's from, like, 2012, I think.

Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Sky.

Cool.

Not surprisingly, it's a lot of people's favorite mystery dungeon game.

Mystery Dungeon is a Pokemon sub-franchise that's based on...

It's, like, roguelike.

So you're going down dungeons and descending, but...

They're also very heavily story-based, and they all take place in a world where Pokemon can speak to each other and have feelings, and you play as a person who's been transported to the body of a Pokemon.
