The Radio Tower broadcasts numerous programs daily, the most prominent of such being [[Professor Oak's Pokémon Talk]] and [[Buena's Password]], a new radio show that debuted in {{game|Crystal}}. For a short time in [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV]], the tower fell victim to the clutches of [[Team Rocket]], during which time all of the normal broadcasts were replaced with a pirate signal officially announcing Team Rocket's return and pleading [[Giovanni]] to return from seclusion. | The Radio Tower broadcasts numerous programs daily, the most prominent of such being [[Professor Oak's Pokémon Talk]] and [[Buena's Password]], a new radio show that debuted in {{game|Crystal}}.

After the player obtains their seventh Johto Gym Badge, it is necessary to purge the Radio Tower of Team Rocket in order to continue the storyline, because until the Radio Tower has been returned to normal, either the [[Blackthorn Gym]] will be closed because [[Clair]] is training in the restricted [[Dragon's Den]]{{sup/2|GSC}}, or a man selling [[ | After the {{player}} obtains their seventh Johto Gym Badge, it is necessary to purge the Radio Tower of Team Rocket in order to continue the storyline, because until the Radio Tower has been returned to normal, either the [[Blackthorn Gym]] will be closed because [[Clair]] is training in the restricted [[Dragon's Den]]{{sup/2|GSC}}, or a man selling [[Rage Candy Bar|RageCandyBars]] will prevent access to {{rt|44|Johto}}, the eastern path out of [[Mahogany Town]]{{sup/4|HGSS}}. After defeating the impostor station manager in the fifth floor office, the player will receive the {{jo|Basement Key}}, which opens up a sealed area of the [[Goldenrod Tunnel]]. Upon finding the real station manager in the second basement of the [[Goldenrod Department Store]], he will give the player a {{jo|Card Key}} to open the door on the third floor that separates the upper floors of the tower in two. With the Card Key in tow, the player can ascend to the fifth floor studio (and the observation deck{{sup/4|HGSS}}) to defeat the final {{tc|Executive|Rocket Executives}}, effectively disbanding the organization. To show his gratitude, the station manager will give the player a [[Rainbow Feather|Rainbow Wing]]{{sup/2|G}}{{sup/4|HG}}, a [[Silver Feather|Silver Wing]]{{sup/2|S}}{{sup/4|SS}}, or a [[Clear Bell]]{{sup/2|C}}. | ||
Before Team Rocket's invasion, a guard will restrict access beyond the second floor to "authorized personnel" only. Thus, the third and subsequent floors of the Radio Tower can only be explored during and after Team Rocket's invasion. | |||

====Buena's Password==== | |||
{{main|Radio#Buena's Password|Radio → Buena's Password}} | |||
The player can collect points for the [[Blue Card]] by listening to the radio show Buena's Password, then visiting Buena on the second floor of the Radio Tower and answering her quiz. If they answer the question correctly, they earn 1 point for their Blue Card. | |||
In Generation II, points must be spent to buy each prize; whereas in Generation IV, prizes are awarded when the player obtains a certain number of points. Players cannot have more than 30p on the Blue Card. If the player has 30p, they can speak to Buena to register her phone number in the [[Pokégear]] (points will not be spent). In Generation II, the player cannot earn points while their Blue Card has 30p (requiring points to be spent); whereas in Generation IV, the player will be issued a new Blue Card once the 30p limit is hit. | |||

The Goldenrod Radio Tower appeared in ''[[EP160|Air Time]]'', where {{Ash}} was invited to the tower to be interviewed by [[DJ Mary]]. A [[List of Team Rocket's disguises|disguised]] {{TRT}} also infiltrated the Radio Tower, intending to steal anything valuable inside. However, all they discovered were tapes of various radio shows. They were then mistaken for a comedy group called "The [[Dugtrio Trio]]," and were dragged to be interviewed by DJ Mary. | |||
Due to Team Rocket having accidentally destroyed the tape of the day's Radio Drama, Ash, {{ashfr}}, and Team Rocket were asked to act the show live. During the show, [[Jessie]] constantly made her own changes to the script, eventually leading to Team Rocket revealing themselves and attempting to steal {{AP|Pikachu}}. Thankfully, Ash managed to recover Pikachu, Team Rocket was defeated, and the Radio Drama was brought to a successful end. | |||

The Goldenrod Radio Tower first appeared in ''[[PS105|Smeargle Smudge]]'', where {{adv|Gold}} was invited to visit it by the [[Radio Director]]. Gold was excited to visit the radio station in the hopes of meeting [[DJ Mary]], but when he saw the {{p|Smeargle}} that had attacked him shortly before was actually Mary's Pokémon, he busted into the recording studio right in the middle of a live interview with [[Whitney]]. Despite the Radio Director being furious with Gold's interruption, the listener response to it was very positive. As such, the Director organized a [[Bicycle]] race from Goldenrod to {{rt|37|Johto}} between Gold and Whitney, although Gold insisted on converting his bike into a {{wp|push scooter}} by attaching its handle to his skateboard. While the race was called off [[PS106|later]], Gold considered himself the winner due to having made his way past the {{p|Sudowoodo}} that was blocking Route 37 and defeating a {{p|Rhydon}} that had taken Whitney hostage. After making Mary write him a pile of signatures, Gold headed to the [[Goldenrod Game Corner]] to spend the money he had earned with his appearance in the radio show. | |||

In ''[[PS180|The Last Battle XIV]]'', {{adv|Professor Oak}} arrived at the Radio Tower for a radio show he was hosting. In the middle of the broadcast, he was notified of a boy who had arrived at the studio and was hoping to get himself a [[Pokédex]]. | |||

In ''[[PS331|The Final Battle IV]]'' and ''[[PS332|V]]'', the aforementioned boy was revealed to have been {{adv|Emerald}}. However, Professor Oak had refused to hand him a Pokédex, because [[Earl Dervish]] had told him that Emerald had consistently refused the company of Pokémon at [[Pokémon academy|Earl's Pokémon Academy]]. As such, he had told Emerald to consider what Pokémon meant to him and what his path with them would be, only agreeing to give him a Pokédex once he had found an answer. | |||

Location of Goldenrod Radio Tower in Johto. | ||||
Pokémon world locations |
The Goldenrod Radio Tower (Japanese: コガネラジオとう Kogane Radio Tower) is a six-story tower located next to the Magnet Train station in Goldenrod City, the largest city in Johto.
In the games
The Radio Tower broadcasts numerous programs daily, the most prominent of such being Professor Oak's Pokémon Talk and Buena's Password, a new radio show that debuted in Pokémon Crystal. For a short time in Generation II and Generation IV, the tower fell victim to the clutches of Team Rocket, during which time all of the normal broadcasts were replaced with a pirate signal officially announcing Team Rocket's return and pleading Giovanni to return from seclusion.
After the player obtains their seventh Johto Gym Badge, it is necessary to purge the Radio Tower of Team Rocket in order to continue the storyline, because until the Radio Tower has been returned to normal, either the Blackthorn Gym will be closed because Clair is training in the restricted Dragon's DenGSC, or a man selling RageCandyBars will prevent access to Route 44, the eastern path out of Mahogany TownHGSS. After defeating the impostor station manager in the fifth floor office, the player will receive the Basement Key, which opens up a sealed area of the Goldenrod Tunnel. Upon finding the real station manager in the second basement of the Goldenrod Department Store, he will give the player a Card Key to open the door on the third floor that separates the upper floors of the tower in two. With the Card Key in tow, the player can ascend to the fifth floor studio (and the observation deckHGSS) to defeat the final Rocket Executives, effectively disbanding the organization. To show his gratitude, the station manager will give the player a Rainbow WingGHG, a Silver WingSSS, or a Clear BellC.
Before Team Rocket's invasion, a guard will restrict access beyond the second floor to "authorized personnel" only. Thus, the third and subsequent floors of the Radio Tower can only be explored during and after Team Rocket's invasion.
Places of interest
Studios
In Pokémon Gold and Silver, the station had two studios, located on the fourth and fifth floors. A third studio was added in Pokémon Crystal on the second floor, to accommodate Buena's new radio show. In every version, the tower has a welcome center, as well as a computer linked to Bill's PC and the player's personal computer, on the first floor and a small café on the second floor. The technical operations of the tower are handled by way of a network of computers on the third and fourth floors. The Director's office is found on the fifth floor.
Programs

Buena's Password
- Main article: Radio → Buena's Password
The player can collect points for the Blue Card by listening to the radio show Buena's Password, then visiting Buena on the second floor of the Radio Tower and answering her quiz. If they answer the question correctly, they earn 1 point for their Blue Card.
In Generation II, points must be spent to buy each prize; whereas in Generation IV, prizes are awarded when the player obtains a certain number of points. Players cannot have more than 30p on the Blue Card. If the player has 30p, they can speak to Buena to register her phone number in the Pokégear (points will not be spent). In Generation II, the player cannot earn points while their Blue Card has 30p (requiring points to be spent); whereas in Generation IV, the player will be issued a new Blue Card once the 30p limit is hit.

Pokémon the Series
Pokémon the Series: Gold and Silver
The Goldenrod Radio Tower appeared in Air Time, where Ash was invited to the tower to be interviewed by DJ Mary. A disguised Team Rocket also infiltrated the Radio Tower, intending to steal anything valuable inside. However, all they discovered were tapes of various radio shows. They were then mistaken for a comedy group called "The Dugtrio Trio," and were dragged to be interviewed by DJ Mary.
Due to Team Rocket having accidentally destroyed the tape of the day's Radio Drama, Ash, his friends, and Team Rocket were asked to act the show live. During the show, Jessie constantly made her own changes to the script, eventually leading to Team Rocket revealing themselves and attempting to steal Pikachu. Thankfully, Ash managed to recover Pikachu, Team Rocket was defeated, and the Radio Drama was brought to a successful end.
Pokémon Generations
The Goldenrod Radio Tower appeared in a flashback in The Legacy, where Looker described Team Rocket's takeover of the building to Silver. He also mentioned how the entire takeover failed due to Giovanni not showing up despite Team Rocket's broadcast.
In the manga
Pocket Monsters HGSS Jō's Big Adventure
The Goldenrod Radio Tower appeared in Clash!! Jō VS Team Rocket, where Jō confronted and defeated Archer there, bringing an end to Team Rocket's schemes.
Pokémon Adventures
Gold, Silver & Crystal arc
The Goldenrod Radio Tower first appeared in Smeargle Smudge, where Gold was invited to visit it by the Radio Director. Gold was excited to visit the radio station in the hopes of meeting DJ Mary, but when he saw the Smeargle that had attacked him shortly before was actually Mary's Pokémon, he busted into the recording studio right in the middle of a live interview with Whitney. Despite the Radio Director being furious with Gold's interruption, the listener response to it was very positive. As such, the Director organized a Bicycle race from Goldenrod to Route 37 between Gold and Whitney, although Gold insisted on converting his bike into a push scooter by attaching its handle to his skateboard. While the race was called off later, Gold considered himself the winner due to having made his way past the Sudowoodo that was blocking Route 37 and defeating a Rhydon that had taken Whitney hostage. After making Mary write him a pile of signatures, Gold headed to the Goldenrod Game Corner to spend the money he had earned with his appearance in the radio show.
In Irked Igglybuff and Curmudgeonly Cleffa and Savvy Swinub, the Radio Tower crew visited Pryce at the Mahogany Gym, assuming that the Legendary Pokémon Suicune would be coming to challenge him, as it had done with several other Johto Gym Leaders recently.
In The Last Battle XIV, Professor Oak arrived at the Radio Tower for a radio show he was hosting. In the middle of the broadcast, he was notified of a boy who had arrived at the studio and was hoping to get himself a Pokédex.
Emerald arc
In The Final Battle IV and V, the aforementioned boy was revealed to have been Emerald. However, Professor Oak had refused to hand him a Pokédex, because Earl Dervish had told him that Emerald had consistently refused the company of Pokémon at Earl's Pokémon Academy. As such, he had told Emerald to consider what Pokémon meant to him and what his path with them would be, only agreeing to give him a Pokédex once he had found an answer.
HeartGold & SoulSilver arc
In One Tough Togepi, Professor Oak was revealed to have told Gold that Team Rocket sightings had been made near the Goldenrod Radio Tower lately.
Pokémon Gold & Silver: The Golden Boys
The Goldenrod Radio Tower appeared in Let's Use Fighting Type Pokémon!! when Whitney showed Gold sights around Goldenrod City.
Pokémon Pocket Monsters
The Goldenrod Radio Tower appeared in Showdown at the Radio Tower!!, where Red and Clefairy visited it to meet DJ Mary. When it turned out that the Radio Director was actually Giovanni in disguise, Clefairy battled against his Pokémon and won, saving the Radio Tower.

Trivia
- The Radio Tower's exterior design in Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver is closer to the one initially planned for Pocket Monsters 2, rather than to its original final design in Pokémon Gold and Silver.
- In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, the poster announcing the Lucky Channel on the ground floor is still present, despite the program itself no longer being available.
- According to the Radio Director, there was once another Bell Tower that stood in the Radio Tower's current spot and was even visited by the Legendary Pokémon Ho-Oh, which is evident by the Rainbow Wing that he found there when it was torn down and kept.
