Rescue Team:Stand By command

Stand By is the command given when the player wants the target Pokémon to stay at its Friend Areas and not joining the team line-up, unlike 'Farewell', which commands the target Pokémon to leave the team forever. To give this command, the target Pokémon must first be in the team. It does not apply for the Team Leader.

Steps

There are three methods. The team members also automatically go Standby after a day passes.

First method

Step 1	Step 2	Step 3	Step 4
Go to the Friend Area where the targeted Pokémon stays and face it.	Face the Pokémon and select 'Stand by'.	Press A. A menu should appear.	The target Pokémon is no longer on the team.

Second method

Works in Relay Points and places other than dungeons or Friend Areas.

Step 1	Step 2	Step 3
Press X or B. A menu should appear. Select 'Team'.	The Team Member list should pop up.	Select the Pokémon you don't want on the team. A menu should appear.
Step 4	Step 5	Step 6
Select 'Stand By'.	A message box saying the selected Pokémon left the team and remains in the friend area should appear.	The selected Pokémon is no longer on the team.

Third Method

Only works in dungeons. Beware that the Items of the target Pokémon will be lost.

Step 1	Step 2	Step 3
Press X or B in the dungeon.	Select 'Team'.	Select the target Pokémon, then 'Farewell'. It is not the same Saying Farewell to Pokémon option from the Friend Area.
Step 4	Step 5	Step 6
A message box will appear. Select 'Yes' if you want the team member to go back or 'No' if you don't.	If you select 'Yes', the Pokémon will disappear.	The Pokémon's name disappears from the member list.

Part of this page's history has been imported from the PMD Rescue Team Wiki. On September 11, 2019, the Gamepedia Shiren the Wanderer Wiki became the Gamepedia Mystery Dungeon Wiki. As part of the unification project between Fandom and Gamepedia, we absorbed the Rescue Team Wiki and its page histories. Some pages were originally deemed unworthy of being imported and were left behind. We've since imported them with the intent to preserve the edits and history of this community and its contributions, as well as to build upon them. In some cases, these pages have been created again by editors of the MDFW, and the Rescue Team page histories were imported into them at a later date. You can check if this is the case by visiting the page's history. For a full list of imported pages, see: Pages with histories imported from the PMD Rescue Team Wiki.
