On top of the Sky Pillar lies {{p|Rayquaza}}, the highest-leveled wild Pokémon in the game.
On top of the Sky Pillar lies {{p|Rayquaza}}, the highest-leveled [[wild Pokémon]] in these games.


Like many special locations in Hoenn, players must have the {{DL|Bicycle|Mach Bike}} in order to navigate through it fully, as there are [[bike obstacles|broken parts of the floor]] on the second and fourth floors. On every other floor, there are wild {{p|Altaria}}, {{p|Banette}}, {{p|Claydol}}, {{p|Dusclops}}, {{p|Golbat}}, {{p|Mawile}}, and {{p|Sableye}}.

In {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}, the island the Sky Pillar is located on is blocked off by impassable walls of rocks until the player defeats the [[Elite Four]]. In {{game|Emerald}} the Sky Pillar is accessible earlier in the game since {{p|Rayquaza}} is needed to abate the conflict in [[Sootopolis City]] between {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}}. As a result of this, the wild Pokémon are lower leveled, and less of the floor is cracked.

In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, [[Norman]] and {{adv|Wally}} trek up the pillar together. The pillar is a maze which requires both an adult and a child to go through (a child to go through the small tunnels and an adult to pull the heavy chains to open doors in those tunnels). While trekking through the tunnels, Wally realizes that Norman in fact wanted to climb up the pillar with his son, {{adv|Ruby}}.

* By stopping the bike on a certain section of cracked floor tiles on 2F, it is possible to fall on top of a rock. However, it is possible to walk off the rock, so there is no risk of being stuck there.
