Game Details

This is a roguelite hack that is inspired by Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door, in which the Pit of 100 Trials is an optional dungeon with 100 floors of battles. We have translated that concept into Pokemon with some twists. In this challenge, you start with 3 random Pokemon and must fight through a random trainer gauntlet over 100 Floors. You and each trainer have random mons. There is a singles, doubles, and mixed mode as well as tons of other difficulty and challenge options. The Enemy trainer mon levels are tied to the floor number, with Lvl 1 being the minimum and Lvl 100 being the maximum. At the start of the challenge, there is only one trainer per floor, but as you progress, more of them will spawn (random number per floor, weighted to lower numbers), with a max of four per floor by the end of the Pit. After clearing each floor you will get one to three random item drops and then the next floor warp will activate letting you progress. Every 5th floor is a Heal/Shop floor where you will be able to rest and prepare for the next trial and on every 10 floors a Move Tutor NPC will appear. Every 25th floor, there is a random Boss battle with a harder trainer, if you defeat the boss you will be given an option to gain a party member.
