POKEMON MYSTERY DUNGEON STARTERS AND PARTNERS

Choosing your starter

When you first begin your game, you will be prompted to answer some personality questions, with the purpose of determining which Pokemon you will become. After you have answered the personality questions, you will be prompted to provide your gender. Based on your personality and gender, the game will then determine which Pokemon you will become. This will be your main character throughout the main storyline.

While the game asks you to answer the questions honestly, you are of course free to provide any answer. As such, if you are aiming for a specific Pokemon, you should aim to match its personality when answering the questions. Keep in mind that there are also Pokemon exclusive to specific genders. Meowth, Machop and Cyndaquil are exclusive to males while Eevee, Chikorita and Skitty are exclusive to females. Since gender is not important in the game, do not worry about putting down your opposite gender in order to get the Pokemon you want. See the Personality Test Questions and Answers to help you get the right starter.

Here is a list of the Starter Pokemon and their corresponding personalities and genders.

Choosing your partner

After you have chosen your starter (or rather the game has chosen your starter for you), you will be prompted to choose a Pokemon to serve as your partner. This Pokemon will be an important character as he/she will remain part of your team on every mission until the main storyline is completed. As such, it would be wise to choose a partner Pokemon who will complement your starter well.

Here is a list of the Pokemon you can choose to be your partner: Bulbasaur, Charmander, Squirtle, Pikachu, Chikorita, Cyndaquil, Totodile, Treecko, Torchic, Mudkip

Note that you cannot choose a partner who share the same type as your starter. For instance, if your starter is a Squirtle, you will not be able to choose Totodile or Mudkip as your partner.
