3	''Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: The Unexpected Arrival'' (commonly shortened to PMD: The Unexpected Arrival) is a web animation series based on the [[VideoGame/PokemonMysteryDungeon Pokémon Mystery Dungeon video game series]]. However, it is the opposite of said game series, as it primarily occurs in the human world.

5	It is a Pokémon Mystery Dungeon web animation series universally referred to as a PMD parody, but it's the opposite storyline and concept of Pokémon Mystery Dungeon. PMD: The Unexpected Arrival was created by Angel Dimm and uploaded to Website/YouTube, debuting on New Year's Day of 2023 (January 1, 2023). The series was CutShort, as it was only a ShortRunner which spanned just 5 episodes due to Angel Dimm suffering from depression, in which PMD: The Unexpected Arrival premiered it's final episode on April 15, 2023.

11	!! (Why does the word "trope" keep ringing in my head so much?):
12	* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: In the human world Kroohu and [[spoiler:Zieix]] are in, there are colourful Racky is a red human, [[spoiler:Blacky]] is a pitch black human, and the [[spoiler:256 identical officers]] are cyan coloured humans.
13	* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: Both of the Pokémon protagonists' names, [[spoiler:Kroohu]] (a Pikachu), and [[spoiler:Zieix]] (a Snivy) is supposed to be a reference and even pun on the creator's last name, as well as his online alias.
14	* {{Fanboy}}: Racky is a huge Pokémon fan, as he has not only played all of the video games but watched every anime episode and read all of the mangas relating to said franchise as well.
15	* FlashbackEcho: In Chapter 1, [[spoiler:Kroohu sometimes becomes shocked as he unexpectedly remembers an event he may have forgotten throughout his time in his universe before ending up in the human world.]].
16	* HeroStoleMyBike: Or in Blacky's case, "Hero Stole My Car", since [[spoiler: Racky is the one who borrowed it in "Kroohu and the Partner Pokémon" to rescue Zieix from being trapped in prison]].
17	* IdentityAmnesia: Kroohu is seen having signs of this in Chapter 1 because he has little to no knowledge of how he even ended up in the human world.
18	* InformedSpecies: "Kroohu and the Unexpected Arrival" shows Racky surprised to see Kroohu (a Pikachu) end up in the human world. He even [[LampshadeHanging lampshades how Pokémon do not exist in his universe]].
19	* LargeHam: Blacky loves to go over the top when emphasising some of the things he says.
20	* MyNameIsQuestionMarks: Before a character is officially revealed or mentioned at least once, their names [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin are read as "???".]]
21	* NameAmnesia: Kroohu and [[spoiler:Zieix]] have not only forgotten who they are, but they have also forgotten their names.
22	* OnlySaneMan: This role usually zigzags between the humanoid cousins, Racky and Blacky (depending on the episode).
23	* RedOniBlueOni: Racky is the fun and talkative red to Blacky's calm, severe and levelheaded blue.
24	* RunningOverThePlot: In "Kroohu and the Unexpected Arrival", [[spoiler:Blacky]] accidentally runs him over with his car, starting the entire plot of the series.
