Tower of Waters
The Tower of Waters (Japanese: みずの塔 Tower of Water) is a landmark on the Isle of Armor in the Galar region. It is one of the Towers of Two Fists, and it is where the player goes during the story of The Isle of Armor in Pokémon Sword and Shield if they wish to evolve their Kubfu into a Rapid Strike Style Urshifu. This can be achieved by defeating all the Trainers in the tower and having Kubfu examine the Scroll of Waters on the top floor. The player is only allowed to enter the tower if Kubfu is the only Pokémon in their party, unless they do not have Kubfu in their party or Box after having obtained it, in which case they can climb the tower with any Pokémon.

The Tower of Waters first appeared in Bom Bom!! Kubfu and Intense Training. When Henry's training with Kubfu was coming to a close, he allowed it to choose which tower it wanted to go to. As it had previously been defeated by an Urshifu guarding the Tower of Darkness, Kubfu chose the Tower of Waters. Battling his way through the four Master Dojo Students inside the tower, Henry was able to reach Mustard on the top floor. Much to Kubfu's fright, Mustard's Pokémon was the same Single Strike Style Urshifu that had previously defeated it.
In Rrmbll!! Serious Tower Battle, Henry battled against Mustard and his Urshifu. This time around, Kubfu was able to defeat Urshifu, completing its training. It was then allowed to inspect the Scroll of Waters, causing it to evolve into Rapid Strike Style Urshifu. As Henry subsequently left the tower, Mustard allowed him to take the newly evolved Urshifu with him, officially making it one of Henry's Pokémon.
