1-1) D) Yes, Eat a Rawst Berry. Initially chose to not. Plans to head down down south, though.

1-2) E) No, don't learn Taunt. Not a fan of the move outside niche uses.

2) C) Yes, switch to Barboach. Obliterates Rhyhorn. Tanks Metal Claws well. Wishes it evolved sooner, but oh well.

3) A) Offensively; nothing but attacking moves and prioritizes super-effective attacks if possible.

4-1) E) No, don't use a Blowback Orb now. Nothing too dangerous in here.

4-2) I) No, don't use a Slumber Orb now. As above.

4-3) B) No, don't use the Trapbust Orb now. Spotted all the traps already.

5) D) No, don't heal up. Should be fine?

6) A) Pick up all items.

7) C) Go back to the room next to the construction company and take the Western exit. To deal with the quest. Chose this over the Dragon room because of fear of Dragon Rage. Should be a good room for Alolan Persian. Probably finds Hawlucha's item somewhere nearby too.

Tied. hmmm... kinda wanna go North while we're here. Who would be good on our team for that room though, probably Squawkabilly? Defensively at least with it's Ghost & Ground immunity... then again it's Defense/Sp. Defense are not that great. It's got STAB against the bug types. Persian might have an easier time with the Ghost type room. Could get unlucky with dual typings in both rooms though....
I've got a slight preference for going North here, so I'll join B).

Spoiler:

Persian eats a Rawst Berry to heal it's Burn. Persian doesn't learn Taunt. We switch the lead to Barboach and fight any enemies in the room offensively.
We don't use the Blowback Orb, Slumber Orb or Trapbust Orb. We don't heal up after defeating 2 opponents.
We pick up all items and take the Northern exit.

The path we take is as follows:

Stepped on a Grimy Trap. A Cheri Berry went bad and has been tossed out.
Stepped on a Poison Trap. Barboach is now Poisoned.
Stepped on a Grimy Trap. A Lum Berry went bad and has been tossed out.

1-1) F) No, don't heal up or cure the Poison. Why waste the resources? Should return to the Hot Spring soon. (Might be overdue?) Plans to take on a single Flying type next room too.

1-2) E) No, don't learn Take Down. Thankfully already knows Headbutt.

2-1) A) Yes, use it on Barboach. Good on anyone slow.

2-2) B) Yes, have Litleo hold it. Already gave Alolan Persian an item. Makes the decision easy.

3-1) E) Yes, switch to Squawkabilly. The best option.

3-2) A) Offensively; nothing but attacking moves and prioritizes super-effective attacks if possible.

4-1) G) No, don't use a Blowback Orb now. Thought about using it on Shuppet. Looks like a two-hit knockout regardless.

4-2) B) No, don't use a See-Trap Orb now. Pointless in this room. Cannot easily walk around traps in this narrow space.

4-3) M) No, don't use a Slumber Orb now. Wanted to use it on Shuppet. Its moveset: Will-o-Wisp, Pain Split, Spite, and Shadow Sneak. Lots of bad things, in other words. Might have Insomnia, though.

4-4) A) Yes, use the Trapbust Orb. In a tight room, 2x1 room? Not a bad option. May be able to buy more at the merchant stand too.

5-1) A) Yes, drink a Berry Juice. Heals up to 50 HP and also heals any status conditions. In case of Will-o-wisp or other nasty moves.

5-2) D) No, don't heal up. Passed the danger by that point. Is not remotely scared of Sewaddle with Squawkabilly up front.

6) A) Pick up all items. Sure. Wants to fight the Sewaddle anyways.

7) D) Take the Eastern exit. Might as well tackle the little room. Suggests a return visit to the merchant stand soon.

Spoiler:

We drink a Berry Juice to heal Barboach. Litleo doesn't learn Take Down. We use the HP Up on Barboach and have Litleo hold the Charcoal.
We switch the lead to Squawkabilly and fight any enemies offensively. We do not use the Blowback Orb, See-Trap Orb or Slumber Orb. We do use the Trapbust Orb.
We drink a Berry Juice to heal after defeating 2 opponents and eat an Oran Berry to heal after defeating 4 opponents. We pick up all items and take the Eastern exit.

The path we take is as follows:

The Trapbust Orb has revealed and destroyed all traps in the room: a slow trap, spin trap, seal trap, blast trap and trip trap.

The fights:

Spoiler:

We took no damage in the third and fourth fight, so the heal after defeating 4 opponents is skipped.
Squawkabilly has leveled up to level 19, Mouflon has leveled up to level 24, and Barboach has leveled up to level 21!

Pansage's recruitment requirement hasn't yet been met (normally we need to talk to recruitable Pokemon to find out what it is, but you can probably already guess what it is).

1) D) No, don't heal up. Not needed.

3) A) Offensively; nothing but attacking moves and prioritizes super-effective attacks if possible.

4-1) B) No, don't use a Blowback Orb now.

4-2) B) No, don't use a See-Trap Orb now. Unnecessary with Alolan Persian.

4-3) C) No, don't use a Slumber Orb now. A big scary bird with Acrobatics, but no. Should demolish it just fine.

5-1) B) Yes, talk to the Panpour and recruit it. Not very strong, but sure.

5-2) B) Yes, talk to the Pansear and recruit it. See above.

B) Yes, eat an Oran Berry. Heals up to 100 HP.

B) Yes, switch to Litleo.
C) Yes, switch to Alolan Persian. - 1 vote
D) Yes, switch to Mouflon.- 1 vote
E) Yes, switch to Barboach.

Tied. hmm... Alolan Persian can hit it for 4x damage, but it won't be STAB. Though it will likely outspeed.
Mouflon on the other hand will be better able to take a hit from Fletchinder and can hit it with STAB super effectively.
Gimmighoul only gets Astonish and Tackle via level up. I think Mouflon is the safer play here, defensively that is.
Joining D).

3) How do we fight any enemies in this room?
A) Offensively; nothing but attacking moves and prioritizes super-effective attacks if possible. - 2 votes
B) Balanced; Uses both Attacking moves as well as non-attacking moves. Prioritizes super-effective attacks if possible. Uses attacking moves 66% of the time on average.

B) Yes, talk to the Panpour and recruit it. - 1 vote
C) No, don't talk to the Panpour.

Tied. It's probably okay if we evolve it for a quick power boost. Like Alolan Persian it's probably a mon better off in the early game than the late game. If nothing else, we could also use it as cannon fodder for any rooms we're expecting to not make it through without a loss. I'll join B).

Spoiler:

We don't heal up Squawkabilly. We switch the lead to Mouflon and fight any enemies offensively. We don't use any of the orbs in this room.
We talk to and recruit both Panpour and Pansear. We talk to the Pansage to find out it's recruitment requirement.
We pick up all items and try to pick up the treasure chest. We go back to the merchant stand after healing up at the Hot Spring.

The path we take is as follows:

Stepped on a sticky Trap. The Soft Sand became sticky and can't be equipped.
Stepped on a Mud Trap. Mouflon's Sp. Attack fell 2 stages.
Stepped on a Gust Trap. Mouflon was flung into a wall and took 5 damage.

Decided to try out a new format for the room vote. I've added room numbers for the rooms we haven't visited yet to the Dungeon Map, mainly so that I don't have to rephrase most, if not all, of the options over and over each time we switch to a different area of the dungeon.
This new format uses the numbered rooms' entrances for navigation. The old format used the exits of the current or previously visited rooms for navigation.

I'll try this out for 2-3 weeks and then I'll let the players decide whether or not to keep it or revert to the old format for this question.

9) Which room do we go to?
A) Go to room 1 from it's right Southern entry..
B) Go to room 1 from it's left Southern entry.
C) Go to room 2 from it's Southern entry.
D) Go to room 2 from it's Eastern entry.
E) Go to room 4 from it's upper Western entry.
F) Go to room 4 from it's Northern entry.
G) Go to room 4 from it's lower Western entry.
H) Go to room 3 from it's Western entry. (we'll have to fight the Nymble on the way).
I) Go to room 3 from its left Southern entry.
J) Go to room 3 from it's right Southern entry.
K) Go to room 6 from it's Western entry.
L) Go to room 6 from it's Eastern entry.
M) Go to room 6 from it's Southern entry.
N) Go to room 5.
O) Go to the room with the Dottler stuck on the tree stump to deal with the Orthworm.
P) Go to the Large Forest room to fight the remaining enemies and pick up the remaining items.
Q) Go to room 8.
R) Go to room 7 from the Western entrance.
S) Go to room 7 from the Northern entrance.
T) Go to room 9.
U) Go to room 10.
V) Go to room 11.

1-1) B) Timid (+Speed, -Attack). This or Rash. Views this as a little safer.

1-2) C) Mild (+Sp. Attack, -Defense). Not against neutral either, as a mixed attacker.

2) A) No, keep Mouflon in the lead.. Yields the most experience, if memory serves.

3) A) Yes, use a Cleanse Orb. Accumulated quite a few sticky items at this point, so sure.

4-1) A) Yes, turn in the quest.

4-2) B) No, don't turn in the quest now. Passes up Smoliv and Pansage by turning it in. No thanks.

5-1) A) Yes, buy 1. One of the more likely status conditions to pop up. Already has 4, admittedly. Does not need many more. (Could probably cap it at 10 or so.)

5-2) N) No, don't buy any. Feels safe with five Chestos.

5-3) H) Yes, buy 8. The good stuff. Refrains from spending all of them for opening chest and other potential purchases.

5-4) N) No, don't buy any. Good. Also has 10 already.

5-5) N) No, don't buy any

5-6) A) Yes, buy 1. Just to bring it up to 4, like the others.

6-1) C) No, don't buy any. No Dusk Stone users in the party or on the horizon.

6-2) E) No, don't buy any. Not opposed to it. Is not in the party right now, though.

6-3) E) No, don't buy any. None in the party.

6-4) C) No, don't buy any.

6-5) A) Yes, buy 1. Becomes really strong at the moment between stats and Scald (as a Water type, at least).

7-1) B) Yes, buy 2. Not as strong as before. Takes some of the edge off a harder fight, though.

7-2) A) Yes, buy 1. Replaces the used one.

7-3) B) Yes, buy 2. Nice for big rooms without chokepoints.

7-4) C) Yes, buy 3. A strong orb, if ever needed.

7-5) B) Yes, buy 2. Stacks a little more sadness on a given problem, if needed. Handy against troublesome Insomnia Pokemon too.

8) F) No, don't buy any TM's. Edit: Go for Bulldoze instead.

9) O) Go to the room with the Dottler stuck on the tree stump to deal with the Orthworm. Edit: For Bulldoze.

8) E) Yes, buy TM028 Mud Shot. Hates to not have enough shards for the treasure chest. Happens to be Special too, unfortunately. May not see a better Ground move for Barboach, though. Picks up Earthquake at level 40 (as Whiscash). Possible downside: Might faint between now and evolving. (By the way, are TMs multi-use? Might have answered this before.)

9) N) Go to room 5. Curious about the little island. Might have something good, given the Water type requirement. (Seems like a good system to number the rooms, also.)

Been meaning to reply for multiple days, but keep forgetting...

TM's are multi-use yes.

We do have limited space for them though. Initially it was gonna be so that any items we don't have room for can't be picked up, but that just sounded unappealing/annoying to me, so I changed it so that any items we don't have room for will be automatically sent to Abra Storage, basically a PC.

1-1) B) Yes, forget Charge. Prefers to keep Tackle, weak as it is. Should never fight a Ground type. Hates to be defenseless if it does occur. Quick note: Electro Ball = Thundershock against base 60 Speed Pokemon.

1-2) B) Yes, forget Torment. Stops some annoying moves, on the off-chance of doing non-attack moves.

1-3) B) Yes, forget Fury Swipes. Does not need Fury Swipes.

2-1) G) Yes, use both Calcium on Mouflon. Not opposed to other Special Attackers either. Will definitely keep Mouflon on the team, though, especially with the Mega Stone around.

2-2) H) Yes, use both Carbos on Litleo. Relies on good flinches.

2-3) J) Yes, use both Protein on Squawkabilly. Remains useful with Intimidate.

3-1) F) Yes, have Panpour hold an Oran Berry. Bad with Acrobatics, sure. Likely picks Squawkabilly for Flying moves anyways. Currently owns a bunch, so why not?

3-2) A) Yes, evolve Panpour into Simipour. Already learned a great Water move (Scald). Wants those stats.

4) F) Yes, switch to Panpour. Knows quite a few nasty moves. Trusts Simipour over Barboach here.

5-1) A) Offensively; nothing but attacking moves and prioritizes super-effective attacks if possible.

5-2) C) Yes, talk to all three Dottler.

6-1) B) No, don't use a Blowback Orb now.

6-2) B) No, don't use a See-Trap Orb now.

6-3) B) No, don't use a Slumber Orb now. Pretty strong, but also alone. Saves the orb.

6-4) B) No, don't use the Trapbust Orb now. Unneeded, but still no.

7) A) Pick up all items.

8) N) Go to room 5. Kind of tempted by that TM to the south, though.

A) Yes, forget Tackle. - 1 vote
B) Yes, forget Charge. - 1 vote
C) Yes, forget Thunder Wave.
D) Yes, forget Thunder Shock.
E) No, don't learn Electro Ball.

Tied. Charge is more worthwhile to keep if we ever play a room in Balanced mode. I think so far that only happened once though, quite a while ago.
If we're gonna play rooms offensively all the time it's probably better to just axe Charge instead. I'll join B)

1-2) Squawkabilly wants to learn Taunt. Forget a move to learn Taunt?
A) Yes, forget Quick Attack.
B) Yes, forget Torment. - 1 vote
C) Yes, forget Aerial Ace.
D) Yes, forget Fury Attack.
E) No, don't learn Taunt. - 1 vote

Tied. Could be useful situationally, but we'll probably probably barely use it, if at all, given we play rooms offensively like 98% of the time.
We'd probably also forget it again the moment an attacking move comes along. I'll join E).

Kinda wanna join Litleo for STAB supereffective Fire type attacks. Orthworm has Bulldoze though, even if it isn't STAB for it. It might not go for it, but it's probably gonna hurt a lot if it does. Would Litleo live a Bulldoze? Perhaps. Can Litleo faint Orthworm in 1 attack though? hmmm... probably not. Might still be fine if we out-speed.
Panpour will be evolving, so Simipour would be a better match-up defensively and stat wise. I'll be safe here and join F).

5-1) How do we fight any enemies in this room?
A) Offensively; nothing but attacking moves and prioritizes super-effective attacks if possible. - 2 votes
B) Balanced; Uses both Attacking moves as well as non-attacking moves. Prioritizes super-effective attacks if possible. Uses attacking moves 66% of the time on average.
C) Defensively. Only attacks once every 3 turns. Uses the other two turns for non-attacking moves.

5-2 When we defeat the Orthworm we can talk to the Dottlers. Do we talk to the Dottlers?
A) Yes, talk to the front two Dottler to unlock their move learning services.
B) Yes, talk to the Dottler in the back to learn what it's recruitment requirement is. - 1 vote
C) Yes, talk to all three Dottler. - 1 vote
D) No, don't talk to the Dottlers now.

Tied. I'll join C). The egg move tutor in particular might come in handy in the future.

I've been wanting to go to the room marked with 5 for a while now, though the thing that was new in it is no longer new as we've found another elsewhere by now.
Anyway, I'll join N) still.

Spoiler:

Mouflon forgets Charge to learn Electro Ball. Squawkabilly does not learn Taunt. We teach Panpour Acrobatics via TM and have it forget Fury Swipes.
We use both Calcium on Mouflon, both Carbos on Litleo and use both Protein on Squawkabilly.
We don't have Panpour hold any items now. We evolve Panpour into Simipour with the Water Stone. We switch the lead to Panpour and fight any enemies in this room offensively.
We talk to all three Dottler after defeating the Orthworm. We don't use any of our orbs in this room. We pick up all items and we go to room 5 next.

The path we take is as follows:

Stepped on a Mud Trap. Simipour's Sp. Defense harshly fell.
Stepped on a Grimy Trap. A Sitrus Berry went bad and was tossed out.

Some decent egg moves: Spark for Barboach, Nasty Plot for both elemental monkeys, and Fire Punch and Heat Wave for Simisear.

1-1) A) Yes, forget Noble Roar. Not a great move for it, but likely more useful than Noble Roar.

1-2) C) Yes, forget Rest. A decent move, but does it ever make sense to use? How often is randomly healing (and randomly falling asleep) a good idea? Maybe in long fights. Risks racking up debuffs that way.

2) F) Yes, switch to Mouflon.

3-1) A) Offensively; nothing but attacking moves and prioritizes super-effective attacks if possible.

3-2) B) Try to avoid the Bidoof. Fights enough stuff already. And why risk the Yawn -> Rollout?

4-1) F) No, don't use a Blowback Orb now.

4-2) B) No, don't use a See-Trap Orb now. Too narrow to be of any use.

7-2) Do we keep the new format for the room vote?
A) Keep the new format for the room vote (See 7-1 above for an example). - 2 votes
B) Go back to the old format for the room vote (see spoiler below for an example).

Spoiler:

We don't teach Litleo Bulldoze via TM, but do teach Barboach Bulldoze and have it forget Rest.
We switch the lead to Mouflon. We fight any enemies in the room offensively and try to avoid the Bidoof.
We do not use the Blowback or See-Trap Orbs in this room. We use a Slumber Orb on the male Frillish and avoid fighting it. We do not use a second Slumber Orb.
We eat an Oran Berry to heal up after defeating 3 opponents.
We pick up all items and try to pick up the treasure chest. We go to room 11 next.
We keep the new format for the room vote.

The path we take is as follows:

Stepped on a Mud Trap. Mouflon's attack harshly fell.
Litleo steppped on a Sticky Trap. TM018: Thunder Wave became sticky and can't be used until it's cleansed.
Litleo stepped on a PP Leech Trap. Work Up lost all it's PP.
Litleo stepped on a Gimy Trap. A Persim Berry went bad and was tossed out.

The fights:

Poliwag:

Female Frillish:

Aipom:

Gimmighoul:

Text in case the image is hard to read:

Spoiler:

Barboach has leveled up to level 23. Mouflon has leveled up to level 26! Litleo has leveled up to level 23!
Mouflon fainted and has left the team. If not for the Speed drop from Mud Shot we would've outsped Frillish. Mouflon probably would've lived to see the berry use then =\
