Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Knights of Arceus

Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Knights of Arceus is a spin-off of the popular Mystery Dungeon series. It features a whole new story similar to Naruto trilogy, Kingdom Hearts, Final Fantasy and of course the popular Mystery Dungeon game series.

Gameplay:

The gameplay is very similar to its predecessors like Red/Blue Rescue Team, Explorers of Time/Darkness/Sky, Blazing, Stormy and Lightning Squad, & Gates to Infinity. But unlike Explorers of Time/Darkness/Sky and similar to other installations, the player pokemon and partner pokemon can evolve during story mode. Legendary pokemon like Lugia, Celebi, Mew, Victini, Deoxys, Shaymin, Phione, Heatran & Genesect can be encountered and obtained more than once since these legendaries can be more than one as seen in the anime series. Unlike its predecessors, you could easily choose your starter similar to how you choose your partner instead of answering questions where you always get the wrong starter. Kecleon is still the most hardest to recruit pokemon in the game (except when you have the Amber Tear and Golden Mask which is still very rare). Rare Candies can be found but however they are very expensive (they cost 500,000,000,000 Pokes per candy). Here, the pokemon you recruited are no longer treated as minor characters unlike its predecessors (note that you could even bring them during story mode in some dungeons). You could now recruit more than 4 pokemon, a limit of six members much like the original Pokemon game and unlike Mystery Dungeon. A newly included one is that you can have hencemen in the game unlike its predecessors In the start of the game, you will stay at the guild of an elite pokemon knight as one of his/her/it's student but as you reached the Alpha Rank, you will have your own guild which can be customize if you evolve.
