Appendix:Mystery Dungeon walkthrough/Chapter 3

Great Canyon

When you awaken it's time to head to the Hill of the Ancients in the Great Canyon. You and your partner will have a conversation outside your base before deciding to depart and find out what happened to you.

Note: If you have done no side missions to level up yet, now is a great time to do so, once you complete Great Canyon you will not be able to do missions or access the town for awhile. If you want to be fairly comfortable try to level up to somewhere around level 15-20.

Great Canyon

Great Canyon has 13 floors with Xatu on the 13th. You will not have to fight Xatu.

Once you see Gengar dropping in you will be asked to save and then a long journey will begin once you head to the Town Square.

Go to Whiscash to hear the Ninetales Legend. After just head back to your base where you will talk with your partner then goto sleep and meet Gardevoir in your dreams. After you awaken just head to the Town Square for the story to continue on.
