Dungeon information

Weather conditions do not occur, and buried items, monster houses and shops appear on any given floor.

Plot

After the events of Great Canyon, the player, and their partner return to Pokémon Square to find Gengar spreading false information about them to the townsfolk. Gengar states that the natural disasters are all the main character's fault, and this convinces the townsfolk enough to turn against the player and partner, despite the partner constantly reassuring the townsfolk that they aren't the crook and they got the information all wrong. Later at the Team Base, the player and partner are confronted by Team A.C.T, who tell them that they have to run far away from the Town Square, for if they see them again in the Pokémon Square or Team Base, they will show no mercy. They have the rest of the day and night to pack and ready themselves for the journey ahead. The player and partner then leave for the next day and are considered fugitives at this point. However, once reaching the entrance of Lapis Cave they hear faint voices, and they soon realize that the townspeople are actually chasing after them. They then have to hurry through the 14 floors of Lapis Cave, and once exiting stop to catch their breath and see if the others have caught up. Unfortunately, they have, and the player and partner have no choice but to trudge on to the next dungeon.
