Dusky squeaked, "So that's why this place is called Pooltoy Pit..."
"Does this wear off?" asked Kelly.
Hexbreon shrugged. "It might wear off after you exit the dungeon, but we've got a lot of floors to go until we reach the floor my job is on. I did hire you guys to take me to B54F, you know," they cheerfully explained. "Oh, I should mention, the longer you spend as a pooltoy, the longer it takes to turn back."
Kelly squeaked incredulously, "Is that why you were a pooltoy before you entered this place?!"
"Nope! I just come this way naturally. Aww, come on, cheer up! You'll love being inflatable!"

I'm trying to figure out if this is too ridiculous to actually fit in the PMD universe. Instinctively I wanna say it is, but at the same time... there's some funky stuff in PMD already. If turning into a bottle of elixir is a thing, if a dungeon that has the magical property of resetting you to level 0 is a thing, if a trap that turns inanimate objects into living breathing Pokémon is a thing, if an orb that devolves Pokémon was meant to be a thing, if magical wands are a thing, humans turning into Pokémon is a thing, why not this? What is the cut-off? I guess pooltoys or an inflatable dungeon might be a bit too much of a specialty to make the cut, but a trap that turns you into a Decoy? Not impossible. Which would easily open the doors to snowballing into entering a toy themed dungeon. Other games and monster IPs have done it. Which opens the doors to this.
In other news, who the heck would accept a B54F escort mission!? That is the part that really challenges suspension of disbelief! D=

Basement 54th Floor. PMD levels are randomly generated mazes. The end goal of each maze advances the floor by 1. Sometimes the floors go up like 5F sometimes the floors go down like B5F. To have an end goal of B54F means you have to escort a very squishy NPC that doesn't like to listen to you and enemies make a beeline for, through 53 random mazes. A trial for only the most insane of masochists!
Or maybe Hexbreon told them it would be long but easy! After all, it takes until the 2nd floor to bring up that these squeak traps exist in the first place! If I was a client and I needed an escort through an area I would tell the team what kind of unique dangers they could expect to run into before we even left! I smell conspiracy!
No no I think they are hidden but once you step on them the giant valve pops up underneath your foot and the patch around discolors to grey. And I think the puffs of air are
A) representing the puffs of smoke traps activate in game
B) representing the valves sort of popping out into existence on the newly inflatable Pokémon.

Since I'm a sucker for lore, here are my 2 takes on this:
Hexa Toys, keeping that name in mind. ;)
..and damn, just the dungeon intelf seems like a fun place to be! I'll probably travel the world till I find the right PMD area with the dungeons you've been showing off. :3
