The Celestial Tower (Japanese: タワーオブヘブンTower of Heaven) is a location situated in central western Unova. A burial ground for deceased Pokémon, it can be considered a counterpart to Kanto's Pokémon Tower, Hoenn's Mt. Pyre, and Sinnoh's Lost Tower.
The Celestial Tower is a tall tower with three inner floors connected by spiral staircases. Like certain buildings in other regions, it is a resting place for deceased Pokémon. At the top of the tower is a bell, which mourners can ring in remembrance of their lost Pokémon. The bell's sound is said to reflect the nature of the one who rang it.
Role
In Pokémon Black and White, the player must come here before the Mistralton City Gym Leader, Skyla, will agree to a Pokémon battle. She has come here to care for a fainted Flying-type Pokémon she saw while flying her plane. After she has healed the Pokémon, she insists the player rings the bell at the top of the tower. Later in the game, the player can meet ChampionAlder here, ringing the bell to comfort the spirit of his very first Pokémon. Before he leaves the tower, he mentions that he and his Pokémon were madly pursuing strength, much in the same way that Cheren does. He will also challenge the player to return to the Pokémon League once more.
In Pokémon Black and White 2, Professor Juniper comes here to continue her research into how the distribution of Pokémon in Unova has changed over the past two years. After entering the Hall of Fame, the player can speak to a newlywedcouple in Humilau City, which will activate a small quest where the player must defeat four former acquaintances of the bridegroom in order to climb the Celestial Tower and ring its bell. The Celestial Tower is also the location where Mesprit is encountered for battle later in the game (requires Waterfall).
