As the first [[Battle Tower]] in the series, it introduced many of the special rules that would later be expanded upon for Battle Towers in [[Hoenn]] and [[Sinnoh]]. One addition, introduced in {{game|Emerald}}, that the Battle Tower in Crystal lacks is a {{tc|Tower Tycoon}} who is in charge of the Battle Tower.

The original Battle Tower established the basic rules of all Battle Tower challenges. Later Battle Towers would modify some of these basic rules to be somewhat more restrictive.
Its slogan is ''Take the Ultimate Trainer Challenge!'' (Japanese: {{j|「めざせ! さいきょう トレーナー」}} ''Become the Strongest Trainer!'').


===Access===
===Access===
In the Japanese version of {{game|Crystal}}, the [[Mobile Adapter GB]] is required as the Battle Tower is only unlocked ''after'' the initial successful connection to the [[Pokémon Mobile System GB]].
====Japanese version====
In the Japanese version of {{game|Crystal}}, the Battle Tower is unlocked once the player connects to [[Mobile System GB]] for the first time, which requires the [[Mobile Game Boy Adapter]]. While the Battle Tower is locked, its doors display the message "The BATTLE TOWER's doors are closed…" ({{j|「バトルタワーの いりぐちは しまってる⋯」}}). After being unlocked, they instead return the message "It's open!" ({{j|「あいてる!」}}).


In the localizations, the Battle Tower is open to everyone.
Since the discontinuation of the Mobile System GB in 2002, it is no longer possible to unlock the Battle Tower in the Japanese version of Pokémon Crystal. The Battle Tower is also inaccessible in the [[Virtual Console]] version.
 
====Western language versions====
In the Western language versions of {{game|Crystal}}, the Battle Tower is always accessible (even in the [[Virtual Console]] version). The doors can no longer be interacted with, so the localized messages from the Japanese version are unused.


===Challenges===
===Challenges===
Battle Tower challenges are made by entering three of the {{player}}'s {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with the attendant at the front desk. The attendant will then guide the player to a special room where they will {{pkmn|battle}} against seven opponents in a row, healing between each battle. After the seven {{pkmn|Trainer}}s have been defeated, the player will be rewarded with five of a [[stats|stat]]-increasing [[vitamin]].

In the Japanese version of {{game|Crystal}}, the Battle Tower is directly associated with the [[Pokémon Mobile System GB]].

If the player battled well enough, they could become a '''Room Leader''' (Japanese: '''ルームリーダー''' ''Room Leader''). All Room Leaders would be registered in the Honor Roll of the Mobile Center for posterity.

Pokémon world locations

The Battle Tower (Japanese: バトルタワー Battle Tower) in Generation II was the first Battle Tower in the Pokémon games, debuting in Pokémon Crystal. It is Johto's premiere battle facility, located at the northernmost part of Route 40, west of Olivine City.

As the first Battle Tower in the series, it introduced many of the special rules that would later be expanded upon for Battle Towers in Hoenn and Sinnoh. One addition, introduced in Pokémon Emerald, that the Battle Tower in Crystal lacks is a Tower Tycoon who is in charge of the Battle Tower. Another difference with later Battle Towers is that the Battle Tower in Pokémon Crystal is built on the same landmass as the rest of the region and may be challenged before the player has become the Champion. The Battle Tower in Crystal also allows any legendary Pokémon to participate, though later generations would ban many of them.

In the Japanese version of Pokémon Crystal, the Battle Tower utilizes the Mobile System GB.

In the games

The original Battle Tower established the basic rules of all Battle Tower challenges. Later Battle Towers would modify some of these basic rules to be somewhat more restrictive.

Its slogan is Take the Ultimate Trainer Challenge! (Japanese: 「めざせ! さいきょう トレーナー」 Become the Strongest Trainer!).

Access

Japanese version

In the Japanese version of Pokémon Crystal, the Battle Tower is unlocked once the player connects to Mobile System GB for the first time, which requires the Mobile Game Boy Adapter. While the Battle Tower is locked, its doors display the message "The BATTLE TOWER's doors are closed…" (「バトルタワーの いりぐちは しまってる⋯」). After being unlocked, they instead return the message "It's open!" (「あいてる!」).

Since the discontinuation of the Mobile System GB in 2002, it is no longer possible to unlock the Battle Tower in the Japanese version of Pokémon Crystal. The Battle Tower is also inaccessible in the Virtual Console version.

Western language versions

In the Western language versions of Pokémon Crystal, the Battle Tower is always accessible (even in the Virtual Console version). The doors can no longer be interacted with, so the localized messages from the Japanese version are unused.

Challenges

Battle Tower challenges are made by entering three of the player's Pokémon with the attendant at the front desk. The attendant will then guide the player to a special room where they will battle against seven opponents in a row, healing between each battle. After the seven Trainers have been defeated, the player will be rewarded with five of a stat-increasing nutritious drink.

Restrictions

The Battle Tower has several restrictions aside from the amount of Pokémon that can be entered.

  • All Pokémon must be less than or equal to the level of battle challenged. Levels are in intervals of 10, and the player can only choose levels 50 to 100 after entering the Hall of Fame.
  • No two Pokémon can be holding the same item.
  • Items cannot be used by Trainers on their Pokémon.
  • Mewtwo, Mew, Lugia, Ho-Oh, and Celebi are only allowed to be entered if the level chosen is 70 or higher. Eggs are not allowed to enter.

Prizes

Item Location Games
Calcium Calcium ×5 For winning 7 battles in a row  C 
Carbos Carbos ×5 For winning 7 battles in a row  C 
HP Up HP Up ×5 For winning 7 battles in a row  C

Protein Protein ×5 For winning 7 battles in a row  C 

Japanese Crystal

In Japanese Crystal, the Battle Tower is directly associated with the Mobile System GB. Further multiplayer features are available, including mobile battles, for which a small price is charged on the players' mobile phones. If the player battled well enough, they could become a Room Leader (Japanese: ルームリーダー Room Leader). All Room Leaders would be registered in the Honor Roll of the Mobile Center for posterity.

Trainers

The following Trainers may appear during the Battle Tower challenge. All of them use randomly-determined teams, depending on the level of the selected challenge.
