Rescue Team:Dungeon
Dungeons (Japanese: ダンジョン) are a type of Location in / Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red and Blue Rescue Team. Gameplay in dungeons works differently than in the overworld. Dungeon gameplay is turn-based, operating on a grid of tiles.
Tiles
There are different types of tiles, aside from the standard ground tiles; such as Carpet used to denote Kecleon Shops, Wonder Tiles which reset Stats, or Traps. Pokémon traverse dungeons one tile at a time, and only the Hero or Team Members are capable of setting off traps.
Special Tiles
Some tiles can only be traversed if the Pokémon has the Super Mobile or All-Terrain Hiker IQ, or a specific Movement Type. The different movement types allow the Pokémon to walk across or through;
Turns
Standard gameplay has the player traversing through dungeon floors, dealing with foes as they appear gathering items to aid in survival, and making it to the next floor. Most Pokémon are only capable of moving, attacking, using an item, or other actions one at a time. However, there are some methods to increase Movement Speed and attack speed, such as Agility.
Foes
With only a few exceptions, every floor of every dungeon is filled with hostile Pokémon known as foes. Most Pokémon are standard-issue foes, though there are a number that also appear as Bosses, or special enemies, such as Jirachi, a boss, Mew, a special enemy or Team Meanies, a hostile Rescue Team that's treated as a boss fight in Sinister Woods.
Floors
Each dungeon is organized into 3 - 99 floors, each floor containing a set of Stairs, a Warp Zone, or an exit of some sort.
Visibility
Visibility changes in some dungeons, and sometimes, floor by floor. While in some story dungeons, the player may be able to see Pokémon in a hallway, other times they may be limited to only the current room, or a small bubble around themselves, depending on the light level of the dungeon. Some items, such as the Luminous Orb can change the Floor's status to Luminous, or the X-Ray Specs can allow the leader to see the entire floor's items and foes. Some Status Conditions may also impact the user's visibility, such as the Blinker status.

Weather
Another factor that may vary by floor, as well as affect visibility is weather. Standard weather is clear, and may change to the following, based on pre-set floor requisites, or moves such as Hail or Sandstorm.
- Clear: Default weather condition. So long as there is a Pokémon on the floor whose special ability is Cloud Nine or Air Lock, the weather is always clear and cannot be changed.
- Cloudy: Damage coming from non-Normal-type moves is decreased.
- Hail: Triggered by the move Hail or a Hail Orb. Pokémon who are not Ice-type take 5 HP damage every 10 turns. Castform turns into an Ice-type Pokémon.
- Fog: Electric-type moves are weakened significantly. Castform turns into a Water-type Pokémon.
- Rain: Triggered by the Rain Dance, Drizzle (special ability), or a Rainy Orb. It strengthens Water-type moves and weakens Fire-type moves.
- Sandstorm: Triggered by the move Sandstorm, Sand Stream (special ability), or a Sandy Orb. Pokémon who are not Rock-type, Steel-type, or Ground-type take 5 HP damage every 10 Turns.
- Snow: The Movement Speed of Ice-type Pokémon is increased by one. Castform turns into an Ice-type Pokémon.
- Sunny: Triggered by the move Sunny Day, Drought (special ability), or a Sunny Orb. It strengthens Fire-type moves and weakens Water-type moves.
Rooms
Without walls, every dungeon would be a Great Hall,a dungeon without walls. Dungeons are usually separated into smaller Room, bordered on all sides by different types of walls or tiles, such as water or magma. Walls can be removed with a Wonder Orb called the One-Room Orb, the move Rock Smash, or the aforementioned skill Super Mobile. Water can be removed with a Drought Orb. If the player-controlled Pokémon uses the Mobile Scarf or a Pokémon capable of moving through walls, such as Gastly, their Belly will decrease faster.
Terrain
Dungeon floors and walls are comprised of different types of terrain. The different terrain determines the Type and power of the move Hidden Power and Camouflage changes the user's type based on the terrain.
