In the anime, the Battle Tower was the sixth of the facilities Ash challenged, in the episodes ''[[AG169|Talking a Good Game!]]'' and ''[[AG170|Second Time's the Charm!]]''. After losing the first match, Ash redoubled his efforts and rechallenged Anabel, resulting in a win. This version of the Battle Tower is near [[Tohjo Falls]].
The Battle Tower that's part of the {{gdis|Battle Frontier|III}} first appeared in ''[[AG169|Talking a Good Game!]]''. In the anime, this facility is located near [[Tohjo Falls]] and was the sixth Battle Frontier facility that Ash challenged. His first battle against Anabel ended in his clear defeat, without Anabel even having to use her third Pokémon. In ''[[AG170|Second Time's the Charm!]]'', Ash challenged Anabel to a [[rematch]] and won, earning himself the [[Symbol|Ability Symbol]] and the knowledge of the [[Battle Pyramid]]'s current location.

In ''[[PS303|Never Spritz a Knotty Sudowoodo]]'', it was revealed that the Battle Tower had been constructed before six other battle facilities were added around it to form the Battle Frontier.

During the climax of the {{chap|Emerald}}, the Battle Tower acted as the location for the [[Pokédex holder]]s' final confrontation with [[Guile Hideout]].
During the climax of the {{chap|Emerald}}, [[Guile Hideout]] took over the Battle Tower and brainwashed Anabel as his servant, forcing {{adv|Emerald}}, {{adv|Ruby}}, {{adv|Sapphire}}, and {{FB|Factory Head|Noland}} to fight their way through the Battle Tower challenge to reach the 70th floor at the top of the tower. Emerald, reaching the top floor first, engaged in a battle against the mind-controlled Anabel, but was hopelessly outmatched against her {{DL|Legendary beasts (Adventures)|Raikou}}. Eventually, the strain of the mind control caused Anabel to fall unconcious. In exchange for Anabel's safety, Noland was forced to hand over information he managed to find out about {{p|Jirachi}}, allowing Guile Hideout to summon a massive {{p|Kyogre}}-shaped mass of water to sink the Battle Frontier into the ocean.
 
Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald were soon joined by {{adv|Gold}} and {{adv|Crystal}}, who revealed that the "statues" of [[Pokédex holder]]s on display at the Battle Tower were actually real people who [[PS302|had gotten turned to stone]] and could only be saved by making a wish to Jirachi. Although Emerald's intial attempt at wishing for Jirachi to do this ended in a failure, after he had opened up to Ruby and Sapphire about his past, Jirachi accepted wish and restored the petrified Pokédex holders. Together, the ten Pokédex holders United to fight the army of [[rental Pokémon]] under Guile's control while trying to figure out a way to defeat the monster Kyogre. Eventually, {{adv|Red}} and Gold succeeded in destroying Guile's armor, Emerald managed calm down the rampaging rental Pokémon, and the Pokédex holders together used their Pokémon's ultimate attacks to defeat the monster Kyogre, ending Guile's plans and saving the Battle Frontier.
 
In ''[[PS337|Epilogue]]'', Anabel told Emerald that since he had technically followed the Battle Tower challenge rules while climbing the tower and battling her at the top, he had earned himself the [[Symbol|Ability Symbol]].
 
===In the Pokémon Battle Frontier manga===
The Battle Tower appeared in ''[[CBF6|Final Battle: Versus The Salon Maiden]]'', where {{OBP|Enta|CBF}} challenged it as his final Battle Frontier facility. After making his way through enough {{pkmn|Trainer}}s, he finally reached Anabel. [[Scott]] tried to intervene, since Anabel going all out had crushed the  confidence of many Trainers, including [[Rald]], but Anabel and Enta argued against this. The fierce battle between the two Trainers eventually came down to a showdown between [[Enta's Ninetales]] and Anabel's {{p|Entei}}. In the end, the two {{t|Fire}} Pokémon ended up knocking each other out, resulting in a draw and thus leaving Enta without his final Frontier Symbol.
