Reading the profile
Scores from 1 to 5, in the atlas's own assessment.
- Story score 4 out of 5 A short fable about friendship, told without hurry.
- Nostalgia score 4 out of 5 The same game from 2005, redrawn by hand.
- Difficulty score 3 out of 5 Sits at the average of the games in the atlas.
- Exploration score 2 out of 5 The world is small or guided.
- Freedom score 2 out of 5 There is only one path.
- Competitive score 1 out of 5 There is almost nothing to contest against other people.
A remake of Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team, from 2005. A personality test suggests which Pokémon you will be; from there, you put together a rescue team and answer calls for help in random dungeons.
The look imitates pencil and watercolor, and the new version adds comfort: an automatic exploration mode, Mega Evolution and bigger teams. It is the friendliest way into the dungeon series.
It is for you if you
- Want to try a roguelike without suffering
- Like simple, sincere stories of friendship
- Played the original on the GBA or the DS
Maybe not, if
- You are looking for a plot as strong as Explorers of Sky's
- Repeating dungeons bothers you

Pokédex
There is no Pokédex to fill here: Pokémon are recruited to the team, and the list of recruitable ones is not in the public database the atlas uses.
