'''Prism Tower''' (Japanese: '''プリズムタワー''' ''Prism Tower'') is a tower located in [[Centrico Plaza]], at the heart of [[Lumiose City]]. Standing at approximately 1,000&nbsp;feet (300&nbsp;meters) tall, it is the tallest man-made, free-standing structure in Lumiose City and the entirety of the [[Kalos]] region, and thus serves as a symbol of the city, as well as a major tourist attraction.

In [[Pokémon X and Y]], Prism Tower houses the [[Lumiose Gym|Lumiose City Gym]]. The tower plays a major role in the story of [[Pokémon Legends: Z-A]].

===History===
====Background====
[[File:Prism Tower Ange ZA.png|thumb|right|250px|Ange embedded into Prism Tower]]
Prism Tower was built at least 2,000 years ago and is the oldest structure in Lumiose City, predating even the city itself.<ref>'''NPC:''' "Apparently Prism Tower came first and Lumiose expanded outward from there." ({{g|Legends: Z-A}})</ref> Hidden within the center of the tower is [[Ange]], a device containing Mega Power created by [[AZ]] to grant eternal life. The tower itself would be remodeled and renovated a few times afterward,<ref>'''NPC:''' "Say, boss, did you know that Prism Tower's been remodeled and renovated a few times? I hear its...skeleton? Its framework? The insides, whatever you call them, are pretty old." ({{g|Legends: Z-A}})</ref> eventually serving as the structure of the present-day Prism Tower.

====Pokémon X and Y====
In the modern day, Prism Tower is a major tourist attraction of Lumiose City. In [[Pokémon X and Y]], the tower housed [[Gym]] for [[Lumiose City]], known as the [[Lumiose City Gym]]. The Gym was led by [[Clemont]], who also designed and created Prism Tower's lighting system.

The Lumiose City Gym is initially inaccessible when the player first reaches Lumiose City in Pokémon X and Y, as it and much of the rest of the city have lost power due to a blackout. After the {{player}} has defeated Team Flare in the [[Kalos Power Plant]], power will be fully restored to the city and the player will be able to challenge the Gym.

====Between X and Y and Legends: Z-A====
After the activation of the [[ultimate weapon]] during the events of Pokémon X and Y, the Ange device awoke from within Prism Tower, unleashing its [[Mega Power]] and attracting wild Pokémon in droves into Lumiose City, as well as allowing many wild Pokémon to undergo [[Rogue Mega Evolution]]. Two years prior to the game's events, the company [[Quasartico Inc.]] was first made aware of this phenomenon when they began investigating the tower for repairs and improvements, causing them to close down Prism Tower, as well as the Lumiose City Gym contained within, to the public for "renovation work".

At some point after Prism Tower was closed by Quasartico Inc., the [[Mythical Pokémon]] {{p|Darkrai}} wandered into Lumiose City and settled atop the Tower, where it got exposed to the unbridled Mega Power leaking from Ange. In turn, this caused its nightmare-generating powers to be greatly enhanced, and [[Hyperspace Lumiose]] was born as the reflection of a blend of memories and dreams from people and Pokémon affected by them.

====Pokémon Legends: Z-A====
[[File:Prism Tower ZA.png|thumb|right|250px|Prism Tower as seen in the Lumiose City skyline in {{g|Legends: Z-A}}]]
As the storyline of Legends: Z-A progresses, Prism Tower is gradually covered by Quasartico Inc.'s scaffolding, eventually being concealed completely. Through conversations with [[Lysandre|L]] and [[AZ]], it was revealed that the only way to stop Ange is to have AZ's [[Eternal Flower Floette]] [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] and take on Ange's power. This would, in turn, unleash the power of Ange and turn it into Hyperrogue Ange {{TP|AZ|Floette}}, using the structure of the tower as a skeleton for it. The {{player}} fights Hyperrogue Ange Floette with the help of {{p|Zygarde}}, eventually unleashing Zygarde's true potential by Mega Evolving it into Mega Zygarde and having it eliminate Hyperrogue Ange Floette using {{m|Nihil Light}}.

After the destruction of Hyperrogue Ange Floette, a cleanup effort was done to remove the debris from Centrico Plaza, as well as the Quasartico Inc. scaffolding meant to contain the tower. The heavily damaged ruins of Prism Tower are left standing as is. A [[wild zone]], numbered [[Wild Zone 20]], the largest in the game, is established within Centrico Plaza, and the plaza is reopened to the public. Some debris from Prism Tower remain scattered around the plaza.

=====[[Mega Dimension]]=====
In the DLC, a loading screen tip gives a new description of Prism Tower:
:''This tower looks very different without its cladding. The day it reclaims its '''former glory''' will probably mark the end for one phase of Lumiose's urban redevelopment plan.''

As a result of Darkrai's growing power, hyperspace distortions started appearing across the city, including a large one that leads into [[Hyperspace Newmoon Nightmare]] right above Prism Tower.

While meeting the player at the [[Nouveau Café]], [[Corbeau]] says he feels that the tower, as the symbol of Lumiose City, should be fixed as soon as possible.

==In animation==
===''Pokémon the Series''===
[[File:Lumiose Gym anime.png|thumb|230px|Prism Tower in {{aniseries|XY}}]]
The Prism Tower's design in {{aniseries|PTS}} differs somewhat from the games, with a narrower and taller base instead of the wider base in the games. Prism Tower's design in ''Pokémon the Series'' also features rectangular entrances with flat canopies and glass wall panels, instead of arch-shaped entrances. 

===={{aniseries|XY}}====
{{spoilers}}
Prism Tower debuted in ''[[XY001|Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!]]'', where {{Ash}} tried to enter the [[Lumiose Gym]] as his first [[Gym]] upon arriving in [[Kalos]], but he and {{AP|Pikachu}} were ejected out of the tower by [[Clembot]] for not having any [[Badge]]s from the Kalos region.

The tower was featured heavily in ''[[XY002|Lumiose City Pursuit!]]'', as {{an|Professor Sycamore}}'s rampaging {{TP|Professor Sycamore|Garchomp}} climbed it. Ash went up after her and was able to calm her down, but she still caused a fair bit of damage to the tower, causing Pikachu to fall off the tower and making Ash jump after him to save him, the two being saved from the fall by the [[Meyer|Blaziken Mask]]'s {{me|Blaziken}}.

In ''[[XY129|Kalos League Passion with a Certain Flare!]]'', while Prism Tower was closed during the [[Lumiose Conference]], [[Xerosic]] and other members of [[Team Flare]] took over the tower as their base in order to control {{p|Zygarde}}. In ''[[XY131|Down to the Fiery Finish!]]'', under [[Lysandre]]'s orders, Team Flare used a device to transform {{form|Zygarde|Zygarde Core}} [[Z2]] into its 50% Forme and control it to unleash giant roots that destroy much of Lumiose City, including parts of Prism Tower.

In ''[[XY132|A Towering Takeover!]]'', after Ash and {{cat|Ash's Pokémon|his Pokémon}} had been captured by Team Flare, Lysandre had both them and [[Alain]] brought to the top of Prism Tower, where he told Alain about his true intentions of changing the world. Upon learning the truth that he had unknowingly been helping Team Flare in fulfilling their plans, Alain was shocked and devastated. Lysandre then attempted to take control of Ash and his {{AP|Greninja}} in order to use their [[Bond Phenomenon]] for his own purposes, but Ash defied him, breaking free of the binds he had been confined with. Alain proceeded to help freeing Ash's Pokémon, having finally understood that Lysandre needed to be stopped. The two Trainers then began battling against the Team Flare Boss, with all of Ash's Pokémon and [[Alain's Charizard|Alain's Mega Charizard X]] facing against [[Lysandre's Pyroar]] and {{Shiny}} Mega {{p|Gyarados}}.

Meanwhile, {{an|Clemont}} and Clembot attempted to take back their Gym from below. In ''[[XY134|The Right Hero for the Right Job!]]'', Clemont and Clembot managed to enter the Gym and encounter Xerosic; while Clemont and Xerosic battle, Clembot used the distraction to hack into Xerosic's machine and eject him out of the Gym using one of the installed trap doors. Clemont and Clembot managed to shut down the machine controlling Z2, though not without Clembot's sacrifice, as it is destroyed in the process. At the same time, [[Malva]] interrupted Ash and Alain's battle with Lysandre, stating that she opposes Lysandre's plan to destroy the world. In ''[[XY135|Rocking Kalos Defenses!]]'', Ash and Alain finally managed to defeat Lysandre and break both Z2 and [[Squishy]] from his control, but Lysandre, unyielding, chose to retreat by jumping off the tower. The heroes subsequently left Prism Tower in order to help stop the [[Giant Rock]], a secret backup weapon Lysandre had prepared.

In ''[[XY137|Battling with a Clean Slate!]]'', many parts of Lumiose City and Prism Tower were under repairs after the Team Flare incident. Prism Tower was later reopened with a relighting ceremony witnessed by all the citizens of Lumiose.

===={{aniseries|JN}}====
Prism Tower briefly reappeared in ''[[JN025|A Festival Reunion!]]'' as Ash and [[Goh]] flew over Lumiose City on their way to [[Shalour City]].

The tower reappeared in ''[[JN103|The Future is Now, Thanks to Strategy!]]'', where Ash and Got visited Clemont and Bonnie at the Lumiose Gym before Ash's upcoming [[World Coronation Series]] battle against [[Drasna]].

===''Pokémon Horizons: The Series''===
[[File:Lumiose Gym HZ.png|thumb|250px|Prism Tower in {{aniseries|HZ}}]]
Prism Tower appeared in ''[[HZ112|Mega Evolution - Roy]]'' as one of the places [[Roy]] visited during his time in [[Kalos]]. Near the tower, he witnessed a battle between two Trainers wielding [[Mega Evolution]] and met [[Ult]] and [[Master Mayonnaise]], the latter who taught the two boys about Mega Evolution and gave each of them a [[Mega Ring]].

===Pokémon Generations===
Prism Tower appeared in the backgrounds of ''[[PG16|The Beauty Eternal]]'' and ''[[PG17|The Investigation]]''. Its appearance differs from its depiction in the games or {{aniseries|PTS}}, notably lacking the central interior at the bottom where the Lumiose Gym entrances would be located.

===Pokémon Evolutions===
Prism Tower appeared in the background of ''[[PE03|The Visionary]]''. As both Pokémon Generations and Pokémon Evolutions were produced by the same animation team, Team Kato, the tower retains its Pokémon Generations appearance in this episode.

===Dragonite and the Special Delivery===
Prism Tower appeared in [[Dragonite and the Special Delivery]] as one of the locations that {{OBP|Hana|Dragonite and the Special Delivery}} and [[Rio]] soared past with {{p|Dragonite}}. They circled around the tower on their way to the [[Kanto]] region.

==In the manga==
[[File:Lumiose Gym Adventures.png|thumb|150px|Prism Tower in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
===={{MangaArc|X & Y}}====
Prism Tower debuted in ''[[PS562|Pangoro Poses a Problem]]'', where it is shown that Pokémon are kept at the tower to provide electricity. [[Alexa]] visited the tower in order to have an interview with [[Professor Sycamore]] there about the incident with [[Xerxer|Xerneas]] and {{p|Yveltal}} in [[Vaniville Town]] in preparation for an article of the subject. Once she arrived at the tower, she was surprised to find out that her boss, the [[Lumiose Press editor-in-chief]], was there as well, aware of the fact that both Sycamore and Alexa knew the truth about the incident, which the media had covered up with a fake tale of an unexplained explosion. After the editor-in-chief had driven Professor Sycamore away with the excuse of him being a busy man and having interviewed him himself, he revealed his association with [[Team Flare]] by promptly burning Alexa's article materials to ashes. He then sent out his {{p|Pangoro}} to kill Alexa, but luckily {{adv|X}} and his friends arrived just in time to save the reporter lady. As the editor-in-chief had taken Alexa's {{p|Helioptile}} as a hostage, X stayed behind to battle him while {{adv|Y}}, {{adv|Shauna}}, {{adv|Tierno}}, and {{adv|Trevor}} helped Alexa to escape.

X soon found out that, even though he had his [[Kanga and Li'l Kanga]] attack Pangoro {{a|Parental Bond|together}} in their [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolved]] state, the [[Pokémon category|Daunting Pokémon]] had no effort in dodging all of their attacks. With [[Salamè]] and [[Marisso]] being distracted by the editor-in-chief's two {{p|Spewpa}}'s {{m|Rage Powder}}, X's hopes of winning looked non-existent. However, once the two Spewpa had been beaten, X was able to use Salamè's tail flame to burn the leaf in Pangoro's mouth, which had allowed it to sense and dodge incoming attacks. With this advantage gone, Kanga and Li'l Kanga were able to defeat Pangoro. As one of the attacks during the battle had made a hole in the wall, Alexa's Helioptile was able to recharge itself with sunlight, promptly shocking the editor-in-chief into unconsciousness and freeing itself in the process.

After the incident, [[Bonnie]], whom [[Clemont]] had left in charge of the Lumiose City Gym at Prism Tower while being away, noticed the damages the battle had caused, and realized that [[Élec|one]] of the 25 Pokémon that had been producing electricity for the tower was missing, having started to follow X after witnessing his battle.

==Trivia==
* A mini replica of Prism Tower, called Square Tower, can be found in the central courtyard of [[Mauville City]] in {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}.
* Prism Tower is one of the oldest towers in the known [[Pokémon world]], alongside [[Dragonspiral Tower]], [[Bell Tower]], and [[Burned Tower]].

===Origin===

According to [[Junichi Masuda]] in his former LINE Blog, he requested the designer of Prism Tower to design it with the imagery of fragrance bottles as an inspiration.<ref name=PrismTowerMasuda/>

Its location at the center of Lumiose City likely references the position of the {{wp|Arc de Triomphe}}, another famous Parisian monument, at the center of Paris's {{wp|Place Charles de Gaulle}}.
