			Note that the game uses (hardcoded?) special behavior for certain areas; in boss floors and final treasure floors, the speaking Pokémon always uses their third line in the "Healthy", "Half Life" and "Pinch" categories. In Future World dungeons (Chasm Cave to Deep Dusk Forest), they will instead only use the first and second lines in the three main categories, which most notably prevents the partner from mentioning the hero's name for story purposes.

	Groups which already existed in Explorers of Time and Darkness received official names in Japanese only, through the games' Official Extra Guide published by Chunsoft in Japan.
