The '''Burned Tower''' (Japanese: '''やけたとう''' ''Burned Tower'') is a location in [[Ecruteak City]] formerly as tall as the [[Bell Tower]] to the east. It burned down mysteriously 150 years prior to the events of the {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} and their [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|remakes]]. Before the great fire that caused its destruction the tower was called '''Brass Tower''' (Japanese: '''かねのとう''' ''{{wp|Kane (musical instrument)|Kane}} Tower'').

According to some legends, {{p|Lugia}} once perched here. However, when the tower burned down, Lugia fled to the [[Whirl Islands]] to live, while {{p|Ho-Oh}}, which lived in the Bell Tower, flew away in search of a pure-hearted Trainer. Three unnamed Pokémon perished in the fire; Ho-Oh returned briefly to revive them after the fire had been put out. These Pokémon, the [[Legendary beasts]] {{p|Raikou}}, {{p|Entei}}, and {{p|Suicune}}, were destined to speed across the land since their revival.

A burned-down tower exists in the {{pkmn|anime}}'s interpretation of Ecruteak City as well, however, it was the ''only'' tower initially, and was the Bell Tower itself. When it burned down due to a war for Ho-Oh's power, a second, new Bell Tower was built to the east, in the hope that Ho-Oh would return, though it never did.

In ''[[EP181|A Ghost of a Chance]]'', {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{an|Brock}} traveled to this burned-out tower by accident, thinking it was the Ecruteak Gym. While here, they were frightened by the many {{p|Gastly}} who took up residence here, as they had made an illusion of fire. With [[Morty]]'s help, they were able to calm down the ghosts and get out.

In ''[[PS152|Buzz Off, Butterfree!]]'' the events seen at the end of the previously mentioned round are shown in more detail. When {{adv|Yellow}} and [[Wilton]] pass through Ecruteak City, they meet [[Jasmine]] with whom they talk about things related to the earthquake that struck the city [[PS108|not too long ago]]. While they discuss, the Burned Tower catches fire. Yellow puts the fire out but is pulled into the tower. She is about to hit a rock inside the tower but, to her great surprise, goes through it. She finds herself in an unknown place and meets {{p|Entei}}, {{p|Raikou}}, and {{p|Suicune}}. The three Pokémon thank her for freeing them, after which they take off. After Yellow gets out from the rock she tells Jasmine and Wilton what she saw. Jasmine then tells her and Wilton the story behind the ruined tower and the [[Legendary beasts]].

In [[Pokémon Gold & Silver: The Golden Boys]], the legend passed down in Ecruteak City is that Brass Tower was burned down intentionally by people long ago, as they felt they had lost their connection to the legendary Pokémon it was built to honor. As a result, the golden Pokémon returned to the skies and broke all ties with humankind.

Unlike in the games, there are no ruins where the Burned Tower used to stand. Instead, a stadium was built on the site of the tower. It is used to house the [[Pokémon Summit]].

* In {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, the exterior of the Burned Tower depicts it as being a short, common tower. However, in {{v|Crystal}} the top of the tower is destroyed, showing the inside, thus making it more akin to the storyline. The Crystal design was then updated and reused in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.
* In {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, the exterior of the Burned Tower depicts it as being a short, common tower. However, in {{v|Crystal}} the top of the tower is destroyed, showing the inside, and the interior uses darker colors to produce a charred look, thus making it more akin to the storyline. The Crystal exterior design was then updated and reused in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, while the interior combines elements of both designs from [[Generation II]].
* There's an oversight involving {{ga|Silver}} in the Burned Tower in Pokémon Crystal. Because Silver doesn't battle the player immediately after entering the Burned Tower, the player can enter the tower and speak with [[Eusine]], and see that Silver is in the middle of the tower, waiting for the player. However, if the player leaves and proceeds to [[Olivine City]], when the player arrives Silver appears there, exiting the Gym, and then talks to the player before leaving. If the player returns to the Burned Tower, Silver can still be waiting for the player there.
