# 0_0 I am! I am the first to have gone
underground and dug some tunnels.
You can call me the Underground Man.
Everyone else does.
I’ll make a gift of this to you.
You hold up your end of the deal\fand put it to good use!
# 0_1 My gift to you, the Explorer Kit,
will instantly take you underground!
You need only to use it, and you
will be down in the tunnels!
The Underground is a different world
where you can do this, that,\fand the other thing, too!
Let me mentor you into becoming
a full-fledged spelunker!
Will you take on that challenge?
# 0_2 Let me mentor you as you become
a full-fledged spelunker!
Will you take on that challenge?
# 0_3 I had hoped to teach a youngster
like you about the many charms of\fthe underground tunnels...
But I can’t force you to accept my
proposal if you’re not inclined.
Sigh...
I get so lonely sometimes...
# 0_4 Hm!
Well said, my young friend!
I will teach you by assigning missions.
First, go underground!
Going underground is quite easy.
Simply use your Explorer Kit.
If you accomplish that, I will give
you your next test.
# 0_5 You’ve not gone underground yet?
To get down to the underground
tunnels, you need only to use your\fExplorer Kit.
But you need to be outside. It can’t
be used indoors or in a cave.
Now, off you go!
# 0_6 Hm! I see that you’ve gone down to
the underground tunnels!
Well done!
Take these as rewards!
# 0_7 Those are called Traps.
They’re triggered when stepped on.
The Underground is a place where
you can go with your friends.
You might try setting those Traps
when you’re down there with others.
Now, what should I assign you next...
# 0_8 How was it in the underground
tunnels?
Big and empty, I would think.
But that’s only because you are
a novice spelunker!
There are many hidden things down there
that are not visible to the eye.
For my next test, I want you to dig
up some Treasure or Spheres for me.
While underground, check the Radar
for yellow spots.
Go to such a location and search
for Treasure using the Touch Screen.
# 0_9 You’ve not located any Treasure
or Spheres yet?
Listen. Check the Radar and go to
any yellow spot that’s shown.
Next, use the Touch Screen to
identify places to dig.
Try to get right on top of a yellow
spot on the Radar, OK?
Once you are right in front of it,
press the A Button!
Now, off you go on your search!
# 0_10 Ah! You dug up what I was looking for!
Good job on finding it!
Well done, indeed!
Take these as your reward!
# 0_11 Dig in the walls of the underground
tunnels to unearth hidden stuff.
Fossils and Stones can be dug up and
brought out from down under.
Spheres, which are gems, cannot be
brought out, but they can be\fexchanged for goods down there.
Now, what should I assign you
next...?
# 0_12 My tests aren’t over yet!
Next, let’s use some Spheres!
The Spheres one can find underground
are very peculiar.
When buried in the ground, they grow
daily, a little bit at a time.
I want you to go bury these strange
Spheres in the underground tunnels.
That is my latest test!
# 0_13 You’ve not buried the Spheres yet?
You’re afraid of losing them?
Have no fear! Spheres are easily
buried and just as easily dug up.
Don’t be afraid. Go bury those
Spheres like I’ve said.
Just don’t forget where you’ve buried
them--the Underground is huge!
# 0_14 Good, good!
You’ve buried your Spheres!
The next time you go underground,
they should have grown bigger!
Just don’t forget where you’ve buried
your Spheres!
Anyway, well done!
This is your reward!
# 0_15 You may have seen them already, but
there are Sphere collectors.
They wander about in the underground
tunnels seeking Spheres.
They’ll happily trade you items for
big Spheres.
Now, what shall I assign you next...?
# 0_16 Have you grown weary of repeatedly
going back to the Underground?
Well, it’s not over yet!
Next up is your Secret Base!
That’s right, I will teach you how to
make your own Secret Base!
All you need is the Digger Drill
I gave you earlier.
Simply go underground and use the
Digger Drill wherever you like.
That will instantly make you your
very own Secret Base!
So, your next assignment is: go make
your own Secret Base!
# 0_17 Hm? You don’t know how to use
the Digger Drill?
OK, I’ll admit this test may have
been a little tricky for you.
All you need to do is find the
Digger Drill among your Traps.
Then, face a wall and use the Digger
Drill. That’s all it takes.
Do that and you’ll have your Secret
Base before you can say...
VAR(65281, 200)Boo!VAR(65281, 100)
No, seriously though!
# 0_18 Ah, you’ve made your Secret Base!
Excellent!
I thought I might have been asking
too much of you, but you did it!
Well done!
Take these as your reward!
# 0_19 Incidentally, a Digger Drill can
be used only once.
If you wish to move your Secret
Base, you will need to obtain another\fDigger Drill.
You can trade a Sphere for one
underground.
What should I make you do next...
# 0_20 Hm! You’ve stuck it out to the end!
This is my final test.
You’ve made yourself a Secret Base,
but it’s totally empty, is it not?
Not to worry! You can decorate your
own Secret Base as you see fit!
So! For my final test, I want you to
decorate your Secret Base.
Use furniture and interior goods
to give your Secret Base character!
# 0_21 Ah, have I finally managed to stump
you?
Perhaps you’ve left your Secret
Base’s door open?
You see, the underground tunnels are
visited by many Trainers.
It wouldn’t do to have someone
barge in on you while you’re working\fon your Secret Base.
Don’t forget to close the door while
you’re redecorating!
# 0_22 Ah! You’ve even managed to decorate
your Secret Base!
I knew I recognized a spelunker
in you!
Don’t forget to close the door when
you’re decorating!
We don’t want any visitors getting
hurt by walking in on you!
Also, if you want to place goods
you’ve received, store them in the\fPC first.
Anyways, well done!
This is your reward!
# 0_23 There are ways of collecting more
decoration goods.
You can grow Spheres you’ve found
and trade them for goods.
It’s also possible to obtain goods
from friends.
# 0_24 I’ve taught you all I know, but if
you insist, there is one more thing\fI should tell you.
The Secret Base you’ve made has Big
Boulders that get in the way, yes?
There is actually a way of moving
those boulders aside...
However, the task may be dangerous
for you now.
I suppose I could tell you how when
you get better as a spelunker...
# 0_25 ...Hm! However, you are someone I’d
recognized as a born spelunker...
Fine! I will tell you, but only
because you’re exceptional!
You know that you may go underground
with your friends, correct?
That means your friends are certain
to have Secret Bases of their own.
Now, this is what you must do:
First, find a friend’s Secret Base.
Next, go to the PC and steal your
friend’s Flag.
Then, run back to your Secret Base
and take the Flag to your PC!
If you can do that, I will permit
you to move boulders.
# 0_26 Ah! My spelunker!
Are you spelunking with your friends?
It’s a hundred times more fun to play
with friends underground!
If you manage to steal a Flag from
a friend’s Secret Base, you be sure\fto come show me!
# 0_27 Wait! Don’t tell me!
You’ve captured a Flag?
Excellent! You should already be
capable of moving Big Boulders\finside your Secret Base!
You can shunt aside a boulder by
storing it like furniture.
Anyways, well done!
This is your reward!
# 0_28 There really is nothing else that
I can teach you.
If you wish to put away more Big
Boulders or put out more goods,\fkeep capturing more Flags.
Become the spelunking master for me!
# 0_29 So, my spelunker, are you going
underground with your friends?
The underground tunnels are vast.
They can be a place where you meet
many others like you.
# 0_30 Ah, you’ve captured three Flags!
Well done!
Take this as your reward!
# 0_31 Ah, you’ve captured ten Flags!
Well done!
Take this as your reward!
# 0_32 Oh! Oh! My goodness!
You’ve captured fifty Flags!
Fantastic!
Take this as your reward!
# 0_33 You have been outstanding! There
really is nothing left to teach you.
From now on, you are the spelunking
master!
# 0_34 Oh? Your underground PC appears
to be full.
Discard a decorative item or two,
then come see me again.
# 0_35 Hm!
This belongs to you!
# 0_36 The underground tunnels go
everywhere!
Grab your friends and let’s play
together using DS Wireless\fCommunications!
# 0_37 Let’s dig up some Treasure!
I’m from Oreburgh.
I work at the mining museum there.
I got advice from the Underground
Man on digging up Treasure and Spheres.
Before I get digging, let me share
his advice with you.
While you’re digging, you may uncover
dark rocks.
They are very hard! If you keep
hitting them, the wall will collapse.
Don’t forget that, and you’ll be
digging up Treasure in no time!
# 0_38 Oh, you’d like more advice on digging
up Treasure and Spheres?
Well, your Explorer Kit contains
a sledgehammer and a pickax.
Choose either of these tools and
touch the lower screen to dig.
You get to keep the stuff you fully
uncover before the wall collapses.
Don’t forget, the dark rocks are
impossible to break.
If you hit them too often, the wall
will collapse.
Don’t forget that, and you’ll be
digging up Treasure in no time!
# 0_39 New and on sale!
Underground Radar!
The upper radar screen indicates
possible Treasure locations.
The lower Touch Radar indicates
precise locations!
# 0_40 There is a book titled “Shortcut
to the Underground.”
# 0_41 Which page would you like to read?
# 0_42 Flags: A Flag can be found in every
Secret Base.
Capture a friend’s Flag and take it
to your own Secret Base to make\fimprovements to it!
Find your friends’ Secret Bases and
capture their Flags!
# 0_43 Spheres: In the underground tunnels,
you can dig up pretty stones that\fare called Spheres.
There are people underground that
treat Spheres like money.
Trade them your Spheres in exchange
for decoration goods and other items.
These Spheres also have the strange
property of growing if they are\fburied in the ground.
# 0_44 Traps: There are Traps that can be
put down in the underground tunnels.
There are many kinds of Traps for
unwary Trainers under the ground.
Some Traps need to be blown away.
Some need to be removed by touch.
# 0_45 Goods: These are furniture and
decorative items for Secret Bases.
Collect goods by exchanging Spheres for
them, or by getting gifts from friends!
# 0_46 Treasure: These are rare items that
appear while digging underground.
They can be taken out of the
Underground if placed in your Bag\fwhile in the tunnels.
Dig around all over and find
Treasure!
