Breaking the conventions of prior PokГ©mon games, you play as a human who has suddenly been transformed into a PokГ©mon, but before you could come to grips with this startling revelation, a Butterfree needs help! It's baby Caterpie has fallen into a dungeon and cannot get out!You and other PokГ©mon you befriend along the way must brave randomly created dungeons to help out other PokГ©mon who find themselves in need of rescuing or just need something delivered. Both happen. Unlike previous PokГ©mon games, the battles take place on the map (though they are still turn based), and although you may only directly control the PokГ©mon that represents you in the game, you can your companions vague battle orders. Such as: use more special attacks or conserve items.
