Gates:Strange Power

Strange Power (Japanese: ???) is a game mechanic in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity. Between two floors, the player might be temporarily sent to another dungeon for a few floors. When this happens, the game displays the message "A strange power made you wander into a mysterious place!". It happens in dungeons that are affected by Mysteriosity, and the destination depends on the current dungeon and floor.

Strange Power Dungeons

One of the effects takes the player to another dungeon, or an alternate, illusory version of the current dungeon, for a certain amount of floors. The dungeon that is temporarily accessed seems to depend on dungeon and floor the Mysteriosity effects takes place on.
