( b. Pokemon Tower )

Enter the Pokemon Tower in Lavender Town. If you haven't beaten Gary, return to the Lavender Town section for instructions.

Head up the stairs. You will encounter Gastly (90% appearance, Easy catch), Haunter (5% appearance, Normal catch), and Cubone (5% appearance, Normal catch). Gastly is immune to Normal and Fighting type moves.

On the first floor, fight the Channeler with a Level 23 Gastly and pick up the Escape Rope.

In a lower section, fight two Channelers: one with a Level 22 Gastly and another with a Level 24 Gastly.

Proceed to the next floor and fight more Channelers. The first has a Level 22 Gastly and a Level 23 Gastly. The second has a Level 22 Gastly. Pick up the Super Ether and a Great Ball. The Channeler at the end has a Level 24 Gastly.

On the next floor, the first Channeler has a Level 22 Gastly. You will find a safe spot that fully heals your Pokemon. Collect the Cleanse Tag. The Channeler to the right of the safe spot has a Level 23 Haunter. The one to the left has a Level 24 Gastly, and the one at the bottom has a Level 22 Gastly. Collect the Nugget.

On the following floor, collect the X Speed. Fight the Channeler with 3 Level 22 Gastlies. The Channeler at the top has a Level 24 Gastly. Fight another Channeler with a Level 24 Gastly. Collect the Rare Candy.

Attempt to go up the next staircase. You will be stopped by a ghost, revealed to be a Level 30 Marowak. It has high Attack and Defense, is uncatchable, and immune to Ground attacks. Use Grass and Water type Pokemon to defeat it quickly. Flying types are a good backup.

After defeating Marowak, its soul is settled. Proceed upstairs to fight three Team Rocket members.

Member 1: 2 Level 25 Zubats, 1 Golbat.

Member 2: Level 25 Koffing and Drowzee.

Member 3: 2 Level 23 Zubats, 1 Rattata, 1 Raticate.

After defeating the Team Rocket members, talk to the old man, Mr. Fuji. He will thank you and give you the Pokeflute.

Go back to where Mr. Fuji was and use the Itemfinder to get a Soothe Bell.
