Grovyle and Celebi will accompany the player as they locate the Passage of Time that will bring them back to the past. It has a total of 12 floors.

Trivia

• Vulpix appears in this dungeon in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness, but not in Explorers of Sky. This may be due to Vulpix being one of the new possible hero and partner Pokémon in Explorers of Sky.
  • Despite this, however, Leafeon continues to appear in Explorers of Sky, even though Eevee is also one of the new possible hero and partner Pokémon.
