Its slogan is ''Take the Ultimate Trainer Challenge!'' (Japanese: {{j|「めざせ! さいきょう トレーナー」}} ''Become the Strongest Trainer!'').

In the Japanese version of {{game|Crystal}}, the [[Mobile Game Boy Adapter]] is required as the Battle Tower is only unlocked ''after'' the initial successful connection to the [[Pokémon Mobile System GB]]. Doing so will also reveal the above slogan.
 
While the Battle Tower is locked, its doors return the message {{j|「バトルタワーの いりぐちは しまってる⋯」}}. After being unlocked, they instead return the message {{j|「あいてる!」}}. These messages are translated in the English version ROM as "The BATTLE TOWER's doors are closed…" and "It's open!", respectively.


In the localizations, the Battle Tower is open to everyone.

===Challenges===
Battle Tower challenges are made by entering three of the {{player}}'s {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with the attendant at the front desk. The attendant will then guide the player to a special room where they will {{pkmn|battle}} against seven opponents in a row, healing between each battle. After the seven {{pkmn|Trainer}}s have been defeated, the player will be rewarded with five of a [[stats|stat]]-increasing [[vitamin]].

In the Japanese version of {{game|Crystal}}, the Battle Tower is directly associated with the [[Pokémon Mobile System GB]]. Further multiplayer features are available, including mobile {{pkmn|battle}}s, for which a small price is charged on the {{player}}s' {{wp|mobile phone}}s. If the player battled well enough, they could become a '''Room Leader''' (Japanese: '''ルームリーダー''' ''Room Leader''). All Room Leaders would be registered in the Honor Roll of the Mobile Center for posterity.
