The '''Pokémon Tower''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンタワー''' ''Pokémon Tower'') is a seven-story tower located in [[Lavender Town]] in the [[Kanto]] [[region]]. It is a burial ground for Pokémon.

The Pokémon Tower houses hundreds of graves of deceased {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in all of its seven floors. 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. In [[Generation II|Generations II]] and {{gen|IV}}, the tower was converted into the '''Lavender Radio Tower''', undergoing a similar transformation to the [[Kanto Power Plant]] to the north.

A special spot on the fifth floor has been made into a wild Pokémon-free healing area. In the Generation I games, the Channeler next to it mentions it is related to white magic. This was removed in the later games.

After restoring power to Kanto by fixing the generator at the [[Kanto Power Plant]], Trainers can receive the {{DL|Pokégear|Radio|EXPN Card}} from the manager of the tower, allowing Pokégears to tune into the Poké Flute channel, which can be used to move {{p|Snorlax}} from its slumber in front of [[Diglett's Cave]] in [[Vermilion City]].

===Pokémon Origins===

The Pokémon Tower first appeared in ''[[PO02|File 2: Cubone]]'', playing a similar role as in {{game|Red and Blue|s}}.

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. His scream was heard by the Team Rocket members on the top floor, and one of them went to check it out. Blue soon bumped into Red, who had also come to the tower. As the ghost followed them, Red refused to run away, and sent his {{TP|Red|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 the {{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 appeared in ''[[PS013|Sigh for Psyduck]]'' and ''[[PS014|That Awful Arbok!]]''. When {{adv|Red}} had come to Lavender Town, he found out from [[Mr. Fuji]] that there are stories of Pokémon ghosts that appear from the tower. After learning that {{adv|Blue}} had gone inside and not returned for two weeks, Red decided to investigate the area.

After having managed to snatch himself a Silph Scope from [[Team Rocket Hideout|Team Rocket's hideout]] in [[Celadon City]], Satoshi returned to the Pokémon Tower, now being able to identify the ghosts inside as {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon. At the top floor, he found [[Mr. Fuji]], who was being held hostage by [[Giovanni]] and a pair of Team Rocket Grunts. Giovanni summoned the spirit of his dead {{p|Machamp}} to attack Satoshi, but another ghost suddenly appeared and defeated Machamp, driving [[Team Rocket]] off. With Team Rocket gone, Mr. Fuji was able to calm the ghost's spirit, revealing that it was actually a {{OBP|Marowak|ghost}} killed by Team Rocket, which was now able to peacefully depart into the afterlife.
