In [[Generation | In [[Generation]]s {{gen|I}} and {{gen|III}}, Pokémon Tower is a seven-floor graveyard that holds the grave of departed Pokémon. On all seven floors, the tower houses hundreds of graves of deceased {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. | ||
Many people visit the building daily to pay their respects to the fallen. On all floors other than the first two, though, the possibility of being attacked by [[wild Pokémon]] is present. Populated by {{tc|Channeler}}s, it was notable for numerous ghost sightings (Pokémon killed by [[Team Rocket]]), as well as the location of Team Rocket's kidnapping of [[Mr. Fuji]]. Although players can encounter {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon here, they can not be seen or captured unless they have a [[Silph Scope]]. | Many people visit the building daily to pay their respects to the fallen.

Prior to the player's visit, [[Team Rocket]] tried to steal the Cubone to sell their valuable skulls. In the process, a mother {{p|Marowak}} that was protecting her Cubone child was killed. {{OBP|ghost|literal|The ghost}} of the mother Marowak haunted the tower until {{ga|Red}}/{{ga|Leaf}} was able to knock it out, setting her spirit free. | ||
The Ghost-type Pokémon in the tower appear to have a unique ability to disguise themselves as the ghosts of humans. Any Pokémon who attempts to fight ghosts without the trainer having a Silph Scope will be "too scared to move" and hence, unable to do anything for fending off the enemy. However, the [[Silph Scope]] will reveal their true natures and identity, allowing the Pokémon to be engaged in battle. | The Ghost-type Pokémon in the tower appear to have a unique ability to disguise themselves as the ghosts of humans.
