Battle Tower Tips

One thing that makes the Battle Tower challenges more difficult is that you do not get to switch Pokemon when you have knocked out the other trainer's Pokemon. Another is that once you lose, you must, repeat must, go back to start. There is no way that I know of to save just before a battle, and if doing poorly, quit to go back to that save point. You always start over. So learn as you go, or "go back to start".

1. You need to pick your team very, very carefully. They will only be fighting Pokemon of the same level, so they need to have some of the best and highest abilities.

2. You need to choose their attacks very, very carefully. You may need to consider Egg Moves, and raising your Pokemon team specially for the tower!

3. You need the Pokemon of the Nature that enhances the attacks you chose. You can have an elevated Attack or Special Attack, but not both. My Alakazam's attacks all use her Special Attack number, which is very high.

4. You need to raise them properly, using their effort points wisely. Know which Pokemon to defeat and which ones to avoid when raising this Pokemon! See page on Effort Values.

5. You need to give them nutrients. By "nutrients" I mean Carbos, Protein, Zinc, Iron, HP UP or Calcium. You need to know which ones to give them, based on which attacks you chose, and your strategy.

6. To learn how to get the money to buy all those, check out our Poke-Tips on another page.
