===Founding Pokémon Paradise===
The story begins when the has a strange dream: they hear a call for help, and see a vision of being chased by . The player then realizes that he has become a Pokémon, and is promptly transported to the Pokémon world. Upon arrival, the hero quickly meets the partner Pokémon, and he asks where the hero is from. When the hero decides to tell the truth, the partner is at first surprised, but then accepts the hero's story. The partner then asks the hero to help him out with something.
The partner asks the hero to help him get through the first dungeon, Ragged Mountain, which they do. From the dungeon's exit, the Pokémon come to a crossroad.
The Pokémon take the crossroad to a barren wasteland. There, Quagsire sells the land to the partner. The partner then begins celebrating his success, explaining to the hero that his intentions were to build Paradise right where they were standing, and he asks the hero to help. The hero recalls the dream they had about Hydreigon chasing after a Munna, and realizing that he has no better place to be, he agrees.
The Pokémon then sleep through the night in front of a tree stump. The night is cold, and the partner suggests that they try to build a house the next day.
The next morning, Quagsire returns, and the partner tells him that they want to build a house. Quagsire says that he knows a good carpenter for them, and brings them through the crossroads to Post Town. They enter the inn, and Quagsire introduces them to Gurdurr. When the partner asks Gurdurr if he will help them build a house, he agrees, but only if they bring him five blue gems.
The hero and the partner head to Stony Cave to find them. When the Pokémon reach the end of the dungeon, the blue gems are there. The partner takes five of them, and they promptly return to Post Town. On the way, a Scraggy bumps into them. Scraggy quickly apologizes and runs off, and the Pokémon return to the inn. However, when the partner tries to give Gurdurr the gems, he finds that they're gone! Gurdurr isn't upset, though; he simply tells them to go get more.
Exiting the inn, the hero and partner are just about to head to Stony Cave again when the two Timburr confront them. They inform them that Scraggy had stolen their gems and to head to Hazy Pass to get them back. With that, the Pokémon head off to Hazy Pass. When reaching the sixth floor, they find Gurdurr and Scraggy conversing. Their conversation reveals that they were scamming the two. The Pokémon then confront Gurdurr and Scraggy and battle them. After defeating them, Scraggy runs away and the Timburr show up. The Timburr beg for Gurdurr to stop scamming others and to return to carpentry, but Gurdurr knocks both Timburr down, refuses, and walks away.
When the two Timburr get up, they explain everything to the hero and partner. They tell them that Gurdurr used to be very fond of his craft, but one day Gurdurr got a serious back injury and was unable to build. They tell them that the last house Gurdurr ever built had his heart poured into it, but the client destroyed it after it was finished. After that, Gurdurr left carpentry and started doing bad things, like scamming. However, after being told this, the hero and partner Pokémon continue to persist at Gurdurr building their house.
The Pokémon continue higher through Hazy Pass in pursuit of Gurdurr. When they find him at the top, Gurdurr attacks them. After being defeated, the partner explains that they want him to build their house. Gurdurr refuses, saying that he can't build anything worthwhile anymore. But the partner responds, saying he doesn't care as long as the house has Gurdurr's heart poured into it. Finally, Gurdurr agrees to put down scamming and return to carpentry, but not without sitting down and crying for a bit.
Several days later, Gurdurr and the Timburr finish the house, and the Pokémon sleep inside it that night. The next day, the Pokémon wake up and head outside, ready for another day.

The two sides battle, and after defeating the boss Pokémon, they all scram.
With everyone safe, Virizion tells Dunsparce to try not to trust others so easily. But the partner interjects, saying that trusting might not be so bad as Virizion says. He then asks for Dunsparce and Emolga to join them in their adventures, which they both agree to.

After the player gets the Request Board in Pokémon Paradise, the player's partner chooses the first mission, which will be to rescue Dunsparce, who is lost. After rescuing him, he joins the team. His best friend is Emolga.
* : The player first encounters Emolga while on their mission searching for Dunsparce. Emolga is Dunsparce's best friend, and he always stands up for him. After Dunsparce has been rescued, he joins the team along with Dunsparce. He doesn't like Virizion at first, due to the way she treated Dunsparce, though they later make amends.
* : Virizion is a very popular Pokémon among the Post Town inhabitants, even though she has turned them all down at some point. The player first meets her after rescuing Dunsparce. Dunsparce had gotten lost looking for a crystal to give to Virizion as a gift, because he wanted to be her friend. Virizion turns him down, saying she doesn't have friends. This hurts Dunsparce's feelings, causing him to run away. After rescuing Dunsparce again, she asks to join the team. The player's partner immediately accepts, much to Emolga's chagrin. Virizion proves to be a calm and collected addition to the team, rarely outwardly expressing her emotions, but she changes as more and more is revealed about her past with her last friend, Keldeo. She later admits that she likes Emolga.
* : They are partners and dungeon researchers. Umbreon wanders into Post Town one night, injured. As Swanna nurses him back to health, he reveals that he thinks his sister, Espeon, is in trouble. After they are reunited, they join the team, though they do not go on missions right away. They also know Virizion from her past and reveal the reason she doesn't have friends.
* : A friend of Virizion, and a Magnagate savant. He was imprisoned in Glacier Palace, and there he wrote a letter to Virizion telling her that they weren't friends anymore. This letter caused Virizion to stop believing in friends. After being rescued by Umbreon and Espeon, he apologizes to Virizion for writing the letter. He joins the player's team after the player Pokémon returns to the human world.
* : A Pokémon that is a physical embodiment of the Voice of Life. He assisted in the player's character being transported to the Pokémon world. He often rambles and joins the team after the final battle. He is very fond of Swanna's food.
====Main villains====
* : A Pokémon who has lost hope in the world and seeks to protect the Bittercold in order to destroy it. She first appears in the player's dream prior to coming to the Pokémon world and is believed to be an innocent Pokémon in distress. Only later does the player discovers that Munna works for Kyurem, and is in fact out to destroy the player. The partner eventually convinces Munna that there is still hope in the world, and she cheers them on during the final battle with the Bittercold.
* Toxicroak and Purugly: Two of Munna's friends and cohorts who work with her in her goal to destroy the world and end everything. Like Munna, they also change their minds about the world's destruction and cheer on the player during the final battle.
* : The protector of the Bittercold. Kyurem foresaw the world's destruction and sees it as his duty to protect that future. He actively uses force to stop the player from destroying the Bittercold, but when defeated later on, he comes to face that, maybe, the determination of the player is enough to change the future.
* : They scam Dunsparce with a deal of getting stronger to get Virizion to be his friend. When the Pawniard Brothers are defeated, they quickly scram.
====Post Town residents====
* : Runs an inn and cafe in Post Town. She tends to be the voice of reason among the townspeople. Her food is said to be among the best in the world. Often referred to as "the Signora"
* : Owns the Box Buster shop. Has a crush on Cinccino.
* : Owns the Gift Shop. Has a crush on Rampardos.
* : An elder, and Lillipup's grandfather.
* : A child, Herdier's grandson, and Swadloon's best friend.
* : Swadloon's mother.
* : Leavanny's child, and Lillipup's best friend.

====Paradise residents====
* : He sells the land that will become Pokémon Paradise to the partner Pokémon. He later helps the player and partner build their house, and then opens a shop in Paradise, where the player can rearrange their team members, and also buy items. He is the one to reward the player after outlaw missions.
* : A former carpenter, became a con artist with his partner Scraggy after he was injured. He initially conned the player Pokémon and their partner, but is defeated in battle when found out. The Timburr Brothers attempt to convince him to return to carpentry, but he refuses. It is only after the player Pokémon and his partner persist at getting Gurdurr to build their house for them when he finally is convinced to return to carpentry. He builds facilities and prepares land for use in Paradise, though he can later do other things such as upgrade and repaint facilities.
* Timburr Brothers: Gurdurr's apprentices, who become concerned when Gurdurr leaves carpentry after becoming injured, scamming other Pokémon instead. After Gurdurr is reformed, they help him when he builds facilities in Paradise.
* : A criminal from the west, and Gurdurr's former partner. After the player, their partner, and the Timburr Brothers defeat him (and some force by Quagsire, who Scraggy is very afraid of), he opens a shop in Paradise where he acts as the Move Reminder and Move Deleter for the game. He spends most of the game making snarky remarks to other Pokémon, specifically the player Pokémon and their partner, but eventually apologizes after the player Pokémon and their partner defeat the Bittercold and save the world.
* : A lively, ecstatic Pokémon who runs the V-Wheel and shows the V-Wavecast in Pokémon Paradise. He is shown to get overly excited, especially about his wheel.
* : Runs the , where job requests can be accepted and canceled.
* : After defeating the Bittercold and clearing the Worldcore dungeon, it will appear in the player's . It will then ask the player to gather parts to build a Musical Paradise shop. After building the shop and changing the Paradise's theme, it will ask to join the player's team. Meloetta has two alter egos depending on its forme.

==Features==
===Companion Mode and Local Wireless===
One job request after the Challenge Board has appeared, these two options will be available from the menu. In Companion Mode, the game can temporarily switch to other recruited Pokémon as the main player. All normal functions are available and items and money collected are carried over to story mode. In this mode, the player cannot leave Pokémon Paradise and , and from Post Town will appear there to function as their individual shops. Companion Mode is made for the player to be able to get more items and experience without progressing the story.
Local Wireless can only be accessed in Companion Mode. This provides multiplayer and is the only way to have more than one player-controlled Pokémon when on Challenge job requests.
===Team Attack===
This is a new type of special attack accessed after the Team Badge is obtained. The player has to build this up in dungeons, using moves and defeating wild Pokémon. Once it's built up, the team attack logo will be displayed on the touch screen when L is pressed. It emits a green light and is significantly stronger than regular moves, attacking all enemies in the room and restoring HP, increasing accuracy, etc.
The typing of the leader determines the added effect. In case of a dual-typed leader, the effect is randomly chosen between the two types.
Type	Effect
 	Inflicts cringe on enemies.
 	Applies to team members.
 	Boosts the Travel Speed of team members by 3 stages.
 	Lowers the and of enemies.
 	Lowers the of enemies.
 	Boosts the and of team members.
 	Boosts each stat of team members.
 	Inflicts on enemies.
 	Inflicts on enemies.
 	Increases the power of moves.
 	Lowers the Travel Speed of enemies.
 	Heals each team member by 100 HP.
 	Inflicts on enemies.
 	Inflicts on enemies.
 	Inflicts on enemies.
 	Boosts the of team members.
 	Inflicts on enemies.
When there are no enemies in the room, the attack fails; however, the unused attack can still be performed while in the same dungeon at a later time.
===Hubs and other out-of-dungeon locations===
Some dungeons have floors where the player can roam around freely and has to complete various tasks in order to proceed. Items cannot be used outside of battle. They contain wild Pokémon, changing part of the floor to a regular grid-like dungeon floor during a battle. The player can escape from battle by stepping out of the grid.
The crossroads provides access to non-job request dungeons, Post Town and Pokémon Paradise.
===Pokémon Paradise===
Initially established by the partner Pokémon, this location progresses as the story does.
===Mysteriosity===
After completing the main storyline, dungeons will begin to have a mysteriosity rating, indicated by a number next to the dungeon's name ranging from 1 to 5. This can cause a mysterious distortion to occur in the dungeon, or a strange power to change the next floor.
===New mechanics===
* This game implements full 3D gameplay and depth perception via the 3DS's 3D capabilities. It also takes advantage of the 3DS's AR functions. By recognizing different round objects, it transforms them into a Magnagate, leaving an infinite labyrinth of dungeons to be explored.
* Many Unova such as , , and are included in the game, though some, such as and , are oddly left out. Only a handful of Pokémon from previous generations appear in the game. A total of 144 Pokémon appear in the game. Despite this, a maximum of 288 Pokémon can be recruited.
* Moves now have ranks. As a move is used, it gains progress towards the next rank. As a move ranks up, it grows in power, accuracy, and maximum PP. Status moves do not have ranks, and moves with set damage or moves that do damage based on factors such as the target's remaining HP (such as ) can rank up, but cannot increase in power. Move ranks are denoted by Roman Numerals, starting at I. As a move grows in rank, more uses are needed to raise it to the next rank. can also be built to train moves. Unlike using a move, Dojos add the same percentage of progress towards the next rank regardless of the move's current rank.
* Hunger is absent from a majority of the dungeons in the game, only appearing in the final three listed dungeons after clearing the story.
* At the start of the game, the player starts off at level 7, but in all Pokémon Mystery Dungeon games prior to this, the player starts off at level 5.
* There are obstacles such as a Poison Gas clouds, electricity, flames, vines, and bewitching mist that block locked doors and certain pathways in dungeons. If a Pokémon of the type of obstacle is brought along with the player's Pokémon, the obstacle will disappear when the playable Pokémon touches it. Pokémon can eliminate the flames, Pokémon can get rid of the electricity, Pokémon can get rid of the vines, and Pokémon can get rid of the Poison Gas cloud, and Pokémon can get rid of the mist, and ice can be eliminated by Pokémon.
* Unless the weather is clear, the Pokémon's HP will not naturally regenerate with walking. However, the player can still use items or moves to heal.
* Wonder Orbs may now be used during boss battles.
* There are no look-alike items in the game.
* TMs may now be used an infinite number of times, just like in the core series.
* Pokémon with more than one ability will only have one of them, like in the core series, as opposed to previous Mystery Dungeon games where both abilities were active.
* If the player fails to complete a dungeon, fewer items are lost and they keep their Poké.
* There are certain tiles on the ground that have different effects in dungeons. For example, yellow star-shaped tiles allow the Pokémon to attack twice automatically with the same attack when standing on the shape. Eraser-esque tiles on the ground make items that are thrown disappear when the Pokémon is standing on it. The game also introduces the Training Switch, a tile which grants the effect of a Training Seed for whole floor. These rarely appear on floors randomly in some dungeons, will always appear behind locked doors, and are common in some DLC dungeons (such as ).
* Traps can now occur at the entrances to rooms, unlike previous games where the first tile after a hallway was guaranteed to not hold traps.
* Recruited and Partner Pokémon that are not brought into a dungeon still receive experience points when the player completes dungeons. Once the Pokémon are brought into another dungeon, the recruited Pokémon will level up from the experience it had gained without being absent from the group.
* Kecleon can no longer be recruited if defeated. There is no Kecleon Gift, and a Normal Gift and Premier Gift will fail if used on Kecleon.
* Team Skills replace IQ skills that the older games had. Unlike IQ skills, Team Skills that are active affect all of the player's Pokémon. Treasure Boxes can contain new skills after being opened by Rampardos.
* Hostile Pokémon can now evolve if they're given a certain item instead of only by defeating player's Pokémon. This happens often in Magnagate dungeons.
* If items are dropped in water, fire, or chasms, they are automatically placed on the nearest path, contrary to previous games where they were submerged or destroyed.
* In previous Mystery Dungeon games, the Job Bulletin Board will have two lists, but in this game there are five for both boards.
* It is unnecessary to complete a dungeon in order to recruit new Pokémon, and they can also be sent back when the team is full.
* can only be fulfilled one at a time, even if they are in the same dungeon.
* Wonder Mail returns, but instead of being a long password that can unlock new dungeons and legendary Pokémon, it is an 8-character password and gives the player various items.
==Localization changes==
* When first meeting in the English version of the game, she makes a statement that references 's song, "".
* In the Japanese version, players are able to select the gender for their partner Pokémon. In the international versions, there is no gender selection.
** Because of the lack of gender selection and the fact that some languages have no gender-neutral pronoun, these languages use male pronouns.
==Wonder Mail passwords==
Unlike previous games, Wonder Mail has been simplified to a simple password system to redeem items. The available passwords vary by region.

==Downloadable Content==
Additional dungeons and music tracks were available to purchase, bundled into packs of one dungeon and two songs each. The songs on offer were from previous Pokémon Mystery Dungeon games, not including the WiiWare entries.
Purchasing a pack would make the dungeon available from the world map. However, note that all DLC dungeons are located on the same blue map marker as Paradise's location. Purchased music tracks would be added to a randomly-cycling selection of music on the game's main menu, replacing the default main menu music. Once the player has built the Music Paradise, any purchased music would also be added to the list of available tracks there.
The content can no longer be purchased with the closure of Nintendo eShop on March 27, 2023

==Demo==
The game demo was released on the Nintendo eShop on November 7, 2012 in Japan and subsequently on March 7, 2013 in the US and on April 25, 2013 for Europe and Australia.
The demo follows the storyline as usual, but the player will not be able to explore Hazy Pass or any locations afterward. However, Magnagate dungeons can still be played, but the player will not be able to save dungeons to be replayed later and Magnagates will not change based on size or color of objects. Any game progress, money, and items in storage in the demo version can be transferred to the full version. Additionally, some characters break the fourth wall by saying the feature will be available in the full version.
The demo software can be used a maximum of 10 times, except for the US demo where it can be played for a maximum of 30 times.

Two special trailers were made to promote the release of Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity, with the original Japanese version being released online on November 1, 2012 and with the English-dubbed version being released online on March 26, 2013.
==Trivia==
* Gates to Infinity is the only Mystery Dungeon game to have species of Pokémon that physically appear, but cannot be recruited.
* In the Japanese version, if the partner is a female , they will not have the heart-shaped tail that female Pikachu are supposed to have.
* Gates to Infinity was the first game in the Pokémon franchise to feature DLC.
* This is the first Pokémon Mystery Dungeon game to be released as a single game, without an associated second or third version.
* This is the only Pokémon Mystery Dungeon game that uses 3D models on its box art instead of Ken Sugimori artwork.
* This is the second Pokémon Mystery Dungeon game in which the can choose their Pokémon, with the first being the WiiWare games. This is unlike earlier games in the series, where a quiz chose the kind of Pokémon the player would be.
* This Pokémon Mystery Dungeon game features the fewest options for the player and partner Pokémon, with only five to choose from.
* When first meeting in the English version of the game, she makes a statement that references 's song, "".
* In the Japanese version, players are able to select the gender for their partner Pokémon. In the international versions, there is no gender selection.
** Because of the lack of gender selection and the fact that some languages have no gender-neutral pronoun, these languages use male pronouns.
* The team name that Emolga suggests, "Emolga's Enforcers," is too long for the space provided.
* This is the only Pokémon Mystery Dungeon game to have the player keep their memories after transforming into a Pokémon.
* This is the last Pokémon game to be released only in English in North America.
