{{main|List of wild Pokémon in the Battle Pyramid}}
[[Wild Pokémon]] are encountered within the Battle Pyramid, with strategies differing depending on how many floors the player has ventured through. Several of the wild Pokémon have high base Speed, making them difficult to [[escape]] from. A {{tc|Hex Maniac}} next to the PC will tell the player what to expect in their next attempt. The tactics used by the wild Pokémon will progress as follows (note that after the list has been completed, it will restart from the beginning):

In the anime, the Battle Pyramid was located near [[Pewter City]], but has hovercraft-like turbines installed in its underside, thus giving it the ability to move around anywhere. The location of the Battle Pyramid is only revealed to those who have defeated the other six Frontier Brains, and so it was the seventh and final facility challenged by Ash, doing so three times between ''[[AG178|Battling the Enemy Within!]]'' and ''[[AG190|Pace - The Final Frontier!]]'' before finally managing to win.
In the anime, the Battle Pyramid is the final facility in the [[Kanto]] Battle Frontier, and its location is only revealed to those who have managed to defeat the six other facilities. Moreover, it is capable of flying, meaning that it has no set location.
 
The Battle Pyramid first appeared in ''[[AG178|Battling the Enemy Within!]]'', where {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} arrived to it its then-current location near [[Pewter City]]. However, while exploring some ancient ruins, where the group also encountered Brandon for the first time, Ash ended by being possessed by the evil spirit of the [[King of Pokélantis]]. Brandon challenged the king to a battle to save Ash, and was finally able to defeat [[Ash's Sceptile]] with his {{DL|Brandon's legendary titans|Regirock}} before sealing the king's spirit away again. The match was declared unofficial and Brandon agreed to have an official battle with Ash later.
 
In ''[[AG186|Overjoyed!]]'', Ash and his friends arrived at the Battle Pyramid's new location in [[Fennel Valley]]. On the day before the battle, Brandon told Ash that he'd be using a {{DL|Brandon's legendary titans|Registeel}}, prompting Ash to call back his {{AP|Torkoal}} from [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]]. However, despite Ash having the type advantage, he was still defeated. Brandon subsequently departed to catch a new Pokémon, promising to return once he had done so.
 
The Battle Pyramid returned to Fennel Valley in ''[[AG189|Gathering the Gang of Four!]]'' and ''[[AG190|Pace - The Final Frontier!]]'', allowing Ash to have a [[rematch]] with Brandon. The match eventually came down to a face-off between Ash's Pikachu and {{DL|Brandon's legendary titans|Regice|Brandon's Regice}}. This time, Ash was able to emerge victorious against Brandon, finally earning him the [[Symbol|Brave Symbol]] and a place in the Battle Frontier [[Hall of Fame]].
 
In ''[[DP128|A Pyramiding Rage!]]'', the Battle Pyramid traveled to [[Snowpoint City]] in order for Brandon to investigate the [[Snowpoint Temple]]. [[Paul]] challenged Brandon to a battle, intending to accomplish what his brother [[Reggie]] had failed to achieve, as Reggie had once lost to Brandon, causing him to abandon his career as a {{pkmn|Trainer}} and become a {{tc|Pokémon Breeder}} instead. However, like his brother before him, Paul was defeated without defeating a single opposing Pokémon.


In ''[[DP128|A Pyramiding Rage!]]'', the Battle Pyramid traveled to [[Snowpoint City]]. Here, {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}} battled and defeated [[Paul]]. In the [[DP129|following episode]], the Battle Pyramid was used in defending the [[Snowpoint Temple]] from [[J|Pokémon Hunter J]].
In ''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship!]]'', after learning of [[J|Pokémon Hunter J]] attacking the Snowpoint Temple, Brandon flew the Battle Pyramid to the site, only to be attacked by [[J's henchmen]]'s Pokémon army, damaging one of the pyramid's rotors and forcing it to make an emergency landing.

The Battle Pyramid first appeared in ''[[PS311|Dust-Up With Dusclops]]'', where Brandon invited {{adv|Emerald}} to challenge it immediately after his victory at the [[Battle Pike]], saying that if Emerald intended to challenge all seven Battle Frontier facilities within the Battle Frontier's seven-day opening ceremony, he should challenge the pyramid right away, as even the fastest clearing of the challenge would take more than 24 hours. Emerald accepted this and started his Battle Pyramid challenge immediately.

In ''[[PS312|Chipping Away at Regirock]]'', Emerald cleared the pyramid for the tenth time, allowing him to challenge Brandon and his {{DL|Brandon's legendary titans|In the Pokémon Adventures manga|trio of Legendary Pokémon}} at the top. Although Brandon seemed to be emerging victorious at the end, Emerald secretly used a [[Revive]] he had found during his challenge to restore his fainted {{TP|Emerald|Sceptile}}, allowing it to land a surprise attack on Brandon's {{p|Regice}} and defeat it, winning the match for Emerald and earning him the [[Symbol|Brave Symbol]].

The Battle Pyramid appeared in ''[[CBF2|Aim for the Top!]]'', where {{OBP|Enta|CBF}} tried to climb to the top, but failed. He asked help from [[Rald]], but despite his advice he failed his second attempt as well. After talking with Rald again and learning to work as a team with his Pokémon, Enta finally managed to reach the top of the pyramid.
