Overview
Pocket D is a first rate night club spanning multiple dimensions. It is maintianed by DJ Zero. Pocket D is a no-fire zone where Heroes and Villains can mingle safely. Pocket D opened up after the hero-only Paragon Dance Party shut down.
Pocket D is currently the only zone in which Heroes and Villains can team together. Several special events have introduced special missions that could be run by mixed teams of heroes and villains, including a few missions that required teammates from both sides.
The Tiki Room and the Ski Chalet are both located in Pocket D. The Tiki Room can only be accessed by Pocket D VIP Gold Club Members, and the Ski Chalet is only accessible during special events.

Trucker You've visited the floating truck in Pocket D. |
Issue 8 added Pocket D Monkey Fight Club as a possible arena match location. In this particular arena there is an exploration badge, Cage Fighter.

Cage Fighter Fighting in a nice big arena is one thing, but fighting in a cage is completely... different. Only the strong survive a cage match. |
The Monkey fight club area also includes:
|

Big Time The 'Fambly', as Joe Young would call them, had been dipping their fingers into the RMFC for some time. As luck would have it, DJ Zero offered Joe and Cornelius a chance to expand their business venture. The Monkey Fight Club Arena and Pocket D are a one-two punch that will certainly be a knockout! |

Notes
|
Dampening Field -Teleport You are being affected by a Dampening Field. It seems unlikely you could teleport. |
- As of August 16, 2006, Teleporting is no longer allowed in Pocket-D.
- This does not apply to the Ski Chalet area which is outside of the Dampening Field.
- Pets (Powerset or Temporary Powers) and Henchmen set to aggressive near one of the corners of the dance floor in the main room of Pocket D will attack an invisible, invincible entity rumored to be the source of the dampener.
