== Into the Tower ==

{{sidebar|width=200px|title=Scoping out danger|contents=Without the Silph Scope, you can't identify the ghosts lurking in Pokémon Tower, and therefore you can't fight them.  With the scope in hand, you can fight and try to capture these astral aggressors.  Many special attacks don't affect Ghost-type Pokémon at all, so use caution in battle.  You'll have better luck catching a Gastly or a Haunter if you use Great Balls instead of regular Poké Balls.}}

With the '''Silph Scope''' in your hot little hands, it's time to head back to Pokémon Tower and figure out what the heck is going on.  The quickest path is to go back to [[Pokémon Red and Blue/Route 7-8|Route #7]], hand the guard a frosty beverage to end the baffling "Thirsty Guard" crisis, and then cut through [[Pokémon Red and Blue/Saffron City|Saffron City]] on your way East to [[Pokémon Red and Blue/Lavender Town|Lavender Town]].  On your way through Saffron City, you might just want to stop in at the Poké Mart and grab a '''Max Repel'''.  The Repel is for the Tower, where you'll be assaulted by Gastlies, Gastlies, an occasional Haunter, and more Gastlies.</big>

== Fighting Ghosts ==

Ghosts are completely invulnerable to the two most common offensive skill types: Normal and Fighting, so many of your Pokémon will be useless here.  But a few Pokémon rock: Anything that can use Dig, especially a speedy one like {{bp|Diglett}}, can pretty much get an instant K.O. with that technique.  And Pokémon with Psychic attacks like {{bp|Kadabra}} and {{bp|Drowzee}}, are really powerful too.  But those are few and far between, so if you don't want to deal with lots of random encounters, just pop open the Max Repel... ''After'' you catch a {{bp|Gastly}} for yourself.

== A chance for rest ==

The leader of the Channelers has broken free of the dark power that held her, and created a reusable healing zone on the 5th floor.  Make sure you heal and save while you have the opportunity, since there are a number of surprises ahead.

== Surprise, surprise ==

The first surprise is at the stairway to the top floor, where the Ghost that you needed the '''Silph Scope''' for finally reveals itself as a level 30 {{bp|Marowak}}.  Make sure you have some strong, non-Psychic Pokémon for this fight! Unfortunately, you can't catch it, even with a Masterball, as it dodges the ball every time.

== At the top ==

More non-Gastly foes await on the top floor. There are three rocket grunts up here.
