Black Tower (Japanese: 黒の摩天楼 Black Skyscraper) is a battle area initially exclusive to Pokémon Black 2. Located within Black City, it is the counterpart to the White Treehollow of Pokémon White 2.
It can be accessed after Black Tower is unlocked with the Unova Link's Key System. If a player of Black 2 clears Area 5 of the Black Tower, that player can send the Tower Key to White 2 players, granting them access to Black City, and consequently, the Black Tower.
Description
The Black Tower was established in Black City between the events of Pokémon Black and Pokémon Black 2. The player cannot challenge it until he or she has defeated Alder in Floccesy Town after entering the Hall of Fame.
It comprises ten randomly generated, progressively more complex areas, each with a number of Trainers. Each area contains a Gate Trainer and a Boss Trainer. Defeating the Gate Trainer of an area unlocks the area's Boss Trainer room, while defeating an area's Boss Trainer allows the player to challenge the next area. A Doctor on each floor will heal the player's Pokémon after being defeated in battle, but only once. Unlike true battle facilities, the player will earn experience and money for winning battles, but will forfeit the money earned during the challenge if the player loses or retires. The player is also able to save the game and access all parts of the menu except for the bag, which can still be accessed when a held item is given to a party member. The C-Gear is usable here; however, registered items and menus cannot be accessed via the Y menu.
The Trainers in each area have a randomly selected team of two Pokémon from a personalized pool of about nine Pokémon. The Boss Trainer of each area has three Pokémon, which are fixed for each battle. The levels increase as the player progresses through the areas, beginning at level 40 and ending at level 77 in Normal Mode. The Boss Trainers' Pokémon have higher levels than those of other Trainers in the area, and they will be holding a wider variety of items, including Black Sludge, Focus Sash, Life Orb, or Gems.
Starting from Area 6, the areas are separated into different floors, which the player has to explore in order to find the Gate Trainer and/or the Boss Trainer. Each floor has its own set of rooms, Trainers, and Doctors.
Items
Upon defeating the Boss Trainer of an area, the player is rewarded with one or two items within a selection, as presented below. As can be observed, players are rewarded much less for completing Areas 6-9 (and arguably 10) than they are for completing Areas 1-5, although the former have higher difficulty and require much more time to complete.

Trainers
This section is incomplete. Please feel free to edit this section to add missing information and complete it. Reason: Areas 3-10 need a full list of trainers. |
The Boss Trainers always use their same set of three Pokémon. Upon visiting Area 10's Boss Trainer chamber for the first time in either Black Tower or White Treehollow, the player will face Benga in battle. Each Trainer has Pokémon with three levels more and $600 more than previous Trainer in area order. In White Version 2, the player will face Janna instead of Benga in Area 10 in subsequent visits.
