Rescue Team:Personality Test

The Personality Test is the player's introduction to / Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red and Blue Rescue Team. Upon creating a new save, the player is given a personality test to determine who the Hero will be. Each question will award the player a set amount of points toward a specific Nature. When finished, answers will be calculated and the hero's Pokémon species will be selected. From there, the Partner's Pokémon species is selected. The partner can not be the same type as the player, which limits the pool of available partners.

Trivia

• The Personality Test originates from Heartbeat's Super Famicom remake of Dragon Quest III, originally developed by Chunsoft, in which the player also takes a personality test at the beginning of the game.
• The question about bungee jumping was later referenced in the titular side quest in  Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer, with a Polygon Doll taking the place of the doll.
