The Pokémon Tower appeared in ''[[EP023|The Tower of Terror]]''. It is depicted as a decrepit mansion rather than a graveyard as it is in the games.

{{Ash}} visited the tower after losing his [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}} against [[Sabrina]], and being adviced by [[Sabrina's father]] to go to Lavender Town to catch himself a Ghost Pokémon in order to defeat Sabrina's {{t|Psychic}} Pokémon. {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} quickly got scared of the seemingly unexplainable events happening inside of the tower, and left Ash do his Ghost search alone. When he finally encountered {{TP|Sabrina|Haunter}} and {{p|Gengar}}, two of the three residents of the tower, he tried to battle them, but soon found out that they were more interested in physical comedy than battling. As their comedy routine didn't work on Ash, the ghosts got sad and sank through the floor in depression. Ash tried to dive after them, but only ended up hitting the floor, causing an old chandelier to fall on him and {{AP|Pikachu}}, killing them. Haunter then turned Ash and Pikachu into ghosts, and the two had some fun with the three ghosts, including playing some pranks with Brock and Misty, before eventually returning to their bodies. However, Haunter had enjoyed its time with Ash so much that it decided to follow him to [[Saffron City]].
Unbeknownst by Ash and {{ashfr}}, {{TRT}} had also been hiding in the tower, seeking for a chance to steal Pikachu. Their plans were foiled, however, due to breaking floors and the pranks of the Ghost Pokémon. Ash even mistook their noises in the basement for the Ghost Pokémon, and had his Pikachu and {{AP|Charizard|Charmander}} attack them, eventually even throwing a [[Poké Ball]] at [[Jessie]]'s face. At the end of the episode, the Team Rocket trio was seen in tied up in {{p|Gastly}}, Haunter, and Gengar's carousel, forcing them to stay with the Ghost Pokémon for a while.


The exterior of the tower looks significantly smaller than what the game depicts it to be. It has a two horn-like objects protruding from the side of the tower, a balcony that appears to be a mouth and two eye-like windows on the very top of it, giving it a demonic appearance. There are also several other balconies and windows on the building.

The floors seem to be unstable as [[James]] falls through to the lower floor due to a single step, although it took the weight of the entire [[Team Rocket trio]] to break through lower floor to the basement. The tower appears to have numerous rooms including a nursery, a dining room, and the aforementioned basement.

===Pokémon===
The tower is the home to the three {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon of Generation I. The group played tricks on {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} causing them to be afraid of the tower, even though they only wanted someone to play with.

===In Pokémon Origins===
[[File:Pokémon Tower PO.png|thumb|250px|The Pokémon Tower in Pokémon Origins]]
The Pokémon Tower first appeared in the [[Pokémon Origins]] episode ''[[PO02|File 2 - Cubone]]'', playing a similar role as in {{game|Red and Blue|s}}.
Once {{OBP|Red|Origins}} arrived in Lavender Town, he soon heard rumors about a {{OBP|ghost|literal}} that has been appearing in the Pokémon Tower, where people go to pay their respects to their deceased Pokémon. While visiting the {{DL|Lavender Town|Lavender Volunteer Pokémon House|Pokémon House}}, Red learned that Team Rocket had recently invided the tower and made its top floor their base. Upon hearing that Mr. Fuji had been taken hostage by Team Rocket when he had tried to convince them to leave, Red decided to go to the Pokémon Tower and save Mr. Fuji. {{OBP|Blue|Origins}} overheard the conversation and decided to defeat Team Rocket and save Mr. Fuji himself, so that ''he'' would be the revered hero of Lavender Town.
Initially, Blue believed that the ghost rumors were set up by Team Rocket to scare unwanted visitors away, but when he reached the sixth floor, he found himself attacked by a real ghost, and ran away in scare. He soon bumped into Red, who had also come to the tower. As the ghost followed them, Red refused to run away, and sent his {{p|Charmeleon}} to battle the ghost. During the battle, Blue managed to sneak past the ghost and make his way to the upper floors, where he encountered a {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}} with the [[Silph Scope]]. He quickly defeated the Grunt with his {{p|Wartortle}}, snatched the Silph Scope, and rushed it to Red, who had found his attacks being useless against the ghost. With the Silph Scope, Red discovered that the ghost was actually the spirit of {{OBP|Marowak|ghost}}, a Pokémon that had been killed by Team Rocket. Before the battle could go on, [[Reina]] arrived with {{p|Cubone}}, Marowak's child. Seeing her child once again, Marowak finally found peace, and departed to the afterlife. Red then made his way to the top floor, where he battled one of the Team Rocket Grunt's with his {{p|Jolteon}}. With the help of Cubone, Jolteon was able to beat the Grunt's {{p|Koffing}}, forcing the Rockets to retreat in defeat. Mr. Fuji was then rescued, and the tower was opened to the public once again.
The Pokémon Tower made a brief cameo appearance in ''[[PO04|File 4 - Charizard]]'' during an overview of Lavender Town.

Upon entering, Red was attacked by various zombie Pokémon that were being controlled by a mysterious purple fog. In addition, he discovered that Blue and his {{TP|Blue|Charmeleon}} was also being controlled by the fog. Once he figured out that the fog was actually a {{p|Gastly}} owned by [[Koga]], Red managed to free Blue and Charmeleon upon defeating the culprit. The tower was damaged when Koga's {{p|Arbok}} kept using {{m|Acid}} to attack Red and Blue, but was repaired by the townspeople after Koga was defeated and driven off.
