This menu normally plays the track known as "Main Menu" in the {{Soundtrack|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity|soundtrack}}. However, if DLC is loaded, random tracks from ''{{RescueTeam|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Blue Rescue Team|Blue Rescue Team}}'' and the ''{{Explorers|Explorers titles}}'' play instead, each of them only lasting a few seconds.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*A {{Gates|debug menu}} allows entering a state of needing to be rescued, as well as rescuing automatically while asking for help. When active, it replaces Wonder Mail and only appears when it can be used.
-->
*The top screen background illustrations are larger than the screen itself, meaning the left-most and right-most areas of the pictures can't be seen in-game.
*Two {{Gates|Removed_and_Unused_content/Miscellaneous|unused background illustrations}} can be found in the game's files.

Bottom screen

The Main Menu (Japanese: トップメニュ, Top Menu) is the first menu the player sees every time Template:Super MD is launched. The main menu opens right after the title screen.

Display

On the top screen, a card detailing the player's progress is shown, including the portrait, name, level and HP of the player character, the current chapter, the team name, playtime, amount of Pokémon that have joined the player, rank and a set of icons that track the player's progress.

On the bottom screen, six icons to access the game's features are shown:

Continue: Brings the player to the core of the game, allowing the exploration of dungeon, progressing the story and doing Connection Orb missions.

Template:Super MD: Brings to a menu where a Pokémon to be used in Pelipper Island is selected, and then sends the player there. The first time this is accessed the game performs an additional small personality test.

Template:Super MD: Brings to a menu where the player can input codes or scan QR Codes to obtain Template:Super MD in the game.

Template:Super MD: Allows listening to the Template:Soundtrack of the game.

Change Names: Allows changing the player character's name, the partner's name and the team name at any moment.

Delete Save: Start a new game from scratch.

On the the top right corner of the bottom screen another icon changes the size of the icons when touched, making them bigger or smaller.

Icons

Main menu icons are small pictures that appear on the top screen of the main menu when certain story Template:Super MD are defeated to track the player's progress. Before their defeat, the icons are displayed as question marks instead.
