Battle Towers are special areas set up specifically for Pokémon battles. Trainers register their Pokémon on the first floor and climb up the floors in a number of battles, fighting other trainers one by one. Pokémon that are not found in their Pokédex will not be registered onto their Pokédex as having been seen. In later games, there are a number of rules that can also be changed within the tower - such as fighting in double battles against the other trainers. Trainers sometimes battle for bragging rights, but they are often rewarded with rare items or points that can be used to buy rare items as well. In Hoenn, one of the Battle Towers is part of the Battle Frontier.
In the Sevii Islands, a smaller and simplified version of a Battle Tower can be found in the Trainer Tower.
After Generation III, the Battle Towers are run by Tower Tycoons, who essentially fulfill a similar role to that of Gym Leaders in Pokémon Gyms.
Battle Tower facilities exist in three regions in the games, and three in the anime:
- Games
- Johto, on the north end of Route 40, please see Battle Tower (Johto)
- Hoenn, on an island south of Route 130, later joined by the other six facilities of the Battle Frontier in Pokémon Emerald, please see Battle Tower (Hoenn)
- Sinnoh, in Battle Park on the northeastern island, please see Battle Tower (Sinnoh)
- Anime
- Johto, in Olivine City
- Hoenn, near LaRousse City
- Kanto, near Tohjo Falls, and part of the Battle Frontier
