I was debating on weather or not to get the new one, but I was sorely disapointed with the GBA versions...

Should I even bother with explorers of sky?

I understand this is a question of personal preference, but I would be more than happy to hear your opinions.

Personally, I love the Mystery Dungeon games (well, the DS ones anyway, I haven't played the GBA ones). I love the storyline, it's so much darker than what you'd expect from a Pokémon game, and fkjdhjkf. I could go on for hours, but I'll spare you and just give you a resounding yes.

So psyched for Explorers of Sky, omg. Why so far away, October? ;A;

If you've played Time and Darkness, I would highly suggest skipping Sky, unless you're a massive PMD fangirl like Usa up there, lol.

I personally like good, ol' Red and Blue PMD the best. It had a few UI flaws, but other than that, I really enjoyed them. Time and Darkness... Were less than stellar. My main beef with it is that if you ever want to evolve you and your partner, you HAVE to finish ALL the post-game side quests, which is utter bullshit, especially when you can only get certain side quests through random luck.

If it says anything, I'm still playing Blue and Red PMD, long after finishing them, but I logged the bare minimum in Time, and haven't touched Darkness at all. Once I could evolve, I dropped that s**t like it was hot.

However, Time and Darkness' plotline is pretty good, I'll give it that. If I remember correctly, I really like the very end where *
you choose to return as a Pokémon, rather than in Red and Blue PMD where the forces that be were just like, "Oh, you're better off as a Pokémon, lol, go back to your friends".* That, and in Time and Darkness, if you play as a boy, the underlying homoerotic tension between you and Grovyle is just too much to ignore. Doubly so if your partner's a dude, too. lol

But Sky, however... It's really just Time and Darkness with Shaymin and Arceus.


tl;dr: Download the ROM and test it out. If you like it, buy it. I personally didn't like it, so I didn't buy Time/Darkness, and have no intention of buying Sky.

I like PMD and want to buy the second one and ;_; WHY NINTENDO, WHY, IS THE THIRD ONE ON THE WII?!
I want to get Time~ But damnit, I just bought Plat. XD I have no money for it. Best I can do is to hope for a bday present, used and all~. xD


I also want to learn more about the Pedno mission.

*And wtf srsly? What happens if you choose being a human? Random regular Pokemon RPG commences? XD Also, I thought PMD 1 said that we weren't finished or something... o_O Or that we were needed. But yea, that was like, "WTF. BUT. HUMAN FRIENDS. HUMAN MEMORY. ISN'T MY MOM LIKE, CALLING THE POLICE BY NOW!?"*

Awh man. I got darkness today. Looks like I'm going to have homoerotic tension with a Grovyle...

Sigh. gonk

I got Pikachu. Apparently I force my sense of justice onto others, so I apologise if I have been doing that. neutral

I chose Turtwig as a partner.

What about you guys? what did you get? 0:

In PMD, I did it many times until I got Eevee, though I think I was originally going for Torchic. I don't really remember anymore. XD


And then I chose Torchic as a partner. :3 And the Absol's my usual third partner.

IS IT A GUY? Trust me, it'll be ******** hilarious, because once the story gets going, it becomes clear as day that there's like a love triangle between you, Grovyle, and your partner, and you could cut the sexual tension with a knife. Being a guy and having a female partner just makes it less funny. And being a chick with a dude partner just turns it into a standard shoujo-esque game.

And lol, I couldn't really say. I kept restarting and manipulating the questions to get the Pokémon I liked best. In Blue PMD, I was an Eevee (evolved into an Espeon) and then became a Ninetales as soon as I could switch leaders, in Red PMD I was a Skitty, and in Time I'm a Cyndaquil, who's now a Typhlosion. I think I took the test for fun once and got Chikorita, though. And if I ever played Sky, I'd totally keep trying until I got Vulpix. :|


@Melody: You the person playing the game don't actually get a choice. But your character does. The powers that be give the character a choice between going back *
to the future* or staying with the guild, and your character chooses the latter.

I got Cyndaquil with a Piplup partner, in both Time and Darkness (chose female for the former and male in the latter). orz I GUESS I AM JUST DESTINED TO BE A CYNDAQUIL. I have no complaints, tho. ;w; I heart Cyndaquil.

Although for Sky, I am totally going to nudge it toward Shinx, and I'm thinking I will have a Vulpix partner. ;O

;_; AWW. Though being from the future doesn't make it that bad, because then you aren't missing during the "present"]

K I decided to restart because I got my a** kicked my an anorith, and lost all of my stuff. On my new file I am a Bulbasaur (which is my favorite pokemon, believe it or not), and a Cyndiquil is my partner. My two favorite starters. *_*

They are both guys, so I guess some major GrovylexBulbaxCyndiquil action shall occur. That's awesome. xDDDD I can't wait to see.

Oh and btw I got to the Hypno mission where they captured poor baby Azurill... o_o

It's ***** status, yo. D8

SEE? @ Gay love triangle and ***** Hypno. We totally were not exaggerating either one. rofl


@Melody: Somewhat. *
The future the character comes from is pretty crappy. Time's been permanently frozen, so the world is pretty much a cold, unmoving, lawless wasteland shrouded in complete darkness.*

hmmm i dont know what to choose :

the main big brother game where i can have an arsonal of pokemon at my coomand and rule the pokeworld with a team of dragonites and alakazams

ooooooooor

the retarted little brother carebear game thats all about hugs, kisses, and friendship amoung pokepals
((the whole game is basicly one big pride parade))

I choose the big brother game that was intentional
not the retarted idiot child that made nintendo sue the condom company

((... maybe i went to far but when it comes to pokemon mystery dungeon I just cant finish it for my own self respect... and this is comming from a person who actualy PLAYED poke snap , and battle revolution))
