Been a good minute since I posted here huh?

Traversing through Pandora's Labyrinth is a little different from what one normally exploring a mystery dungeon would be used to! (Well, I think! I wouldn't really know! I went through here first!//shot)
Platforms.. Different planes.. Well, least there's more to explore!

Here's a list of all the different concepts and stuff in the picture to give a bit more context to each thing!

Pandora Statistics:
Here everyone ends up getting a different range of statistics then one would normally have. It's not quite like starting over once you enter, but it's pretty darn close! A move that might normally cause a Base Pokemon to faint in one hit would deal fairly average damage when you first come in.. Some stuff in here transfers differently then others, so here's a list!

^Rank:

Normally a Trainer's Progress would be tracked by how many badges they have right? (Wait what? Trainer-)
Well in Zoom's case, instead of badges, it's tracked by his own Trainer Level, or a Rank. The more he does and the more he bonds with his Pokemon, the higher it gets and the more Pokemon will listen to him!...

But in Pandora, his Rank is mysteriously reset! Look's like he's gonna have to work hard to get it back to the 80 that he used to have... But he's almost there!

Pandora Level:

Similarly to how a Trainer's Rank would be reset. A Pokemon's "Level" resets as well!
Though.. Tricky, it'd be inaccurate to say that the Pokemon has gotten weaker. It's more like the Pokemon's Strength is now relative to it's newer surroundings!.. (Okay that might be another fancy way of saying they have but!) The longer they fight in Pandora, the closer they return to their "Original" Strength, and maybe even higher!

Link Meter:

A Special Mechanic originating from Zoom's world, when it's built up, he can perform Skills! These Skills can either help a Pokemon in the Party or damage a Pokemon in the Opposing Party! There are many different types of skills that can be obtained by bonding with Pokemon! Not to mention, powerful Link Attacks at higher bonds!

Pokemonogatari Statistics:

Risk:

Risk is a fancy term referring to the Stability and Safety of a Trainer and a Pokemon!
In the Trainer's case, the closer they are to getting seriously hurt, the higher the Risk! In Zoom's case, he seems to be okay right now though! When a Trainer is knocked out at High Risk, they're kicked from the battle for a while, so Trainer's have to becareful! Especially here!

...In the Pokemon's case however....

Irregular:

An Irregular Pokemon is a Pokemon affected and consumed by some sort of distortion! It increases paranoia, makes them go out of control, and even traps them in an Aura that deals certain side effects to Pokemon and Trainers Alike. The Link System is more like a positive version of this..

A Pokemon with an Irregularity consuming them is at risk of getting destroyed if you let it consume them! For instances like these, to remove the Irregularity, you have to get the Pokemon to be able to trust you! There fore, the best thing is to "Appeal!" Try to bond with it! And help it through the issue it has!

In the Beedrills case.. It's Irregularity seems to have to do with Venom!
Though it's effect might be "poisonous" that doesn't mean that it's issue is that it's Poisioned! There might be a vaguer reasoning....

There are a couple of more steps to removing an irregularity... but we'll save those for later okay?

HP and PP:
A sneak peak for an actual game mechanic!
There's been one more numerical placement for HP! Why is it there? Hmmm... Maybe because of the Skills?
PP Has been shoved into one place!.. (Though in actuality, it's a total estimation of the PP from all the moves it has, hah!)

Mystery Dungeon Aspects:

Tiles:

Tiles are back!
Two are featured here, let's go through them!

Wondertile: A Wondertile! We all know what that does right? Right?
Well in case you don't, it restores all changed statistics! Pretty useful! Especially here huh?

Shift Tile: A special tile related to Pandora... This tile shifts you to the ceiling!..
Wait the ceiling... There's stuff to explore on the ceiling here?!?!?!?!

Treasure Box (Pandora): Treasure Box! Feat' Pandora! It can be taken somewhere to open it... But the treasures inside....
Well... They're unusual and Unique to say the least, but it should be able to help Trainers, Pokemon, and Explorers alike!..... Riiiighht...?????

That's all for now! Tune in next time where more information about Pandora may be revealed!

...Hmm.. that Riolu...
H-Huh?! It's a Shiny?!

And that Lycanroc... It's very peculiar...
E-Eeeehh?! I'm seeing stranger and stranger things everyday!
