Sprout Tower is a three tiered tower with multiple eaves. Like the [[Bell Tower]] and the [[Burned Tower]], it is constructed solely out of wood, creating a multi-story effect. The design of Sprout Tower is inspired by Buddhist temples in the Nara Prefecture of Japan, such as {{wp|Kōfuku-ji}} and {{wp|Hōryū-ji}} temples. Surrounding the tower is a beautiful lake in the center of Violet City, hosting several architectural bridges making its way across the water. Sprout Tower is dedicated to the gentle and peaceful nature of {{p|Bellsprout}}.

Spout Tower is three stories tall. The ground floor is much like a visitors floor, where tourists come to see the unique style of which the tower was formed. There are two other upper levels, which are dedicated to Pokémon Training; monks who study diligently and train their gentle {{p|Bellsprout}} come to teach that all living beings coexist through cooperation. The monks of the tower train solely {{p|Bellsprout}} and have at least one in their [[party]], and other have occasionally captured {{p|Hoothoot}} as well. The upper floors are also riddled with {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Rattata}} that inhabit the wooden pillars and columns. And as night falls, ghosts are said to appear in the tower, in the form of {{p|Gastly}}. | Spout Tower is three stories tall.
