Pokémon Diamond and Pearl/The Lost Tower

Lost Tower exterior

The Lost Tower is a place where trainers can mourn their deceased Pokémon. It's home to various Ghost Pokémon and at the top you will receive two items from the towers overseers

In Diamond and Pearl, there is really only one reason you need to go here, and that is for HM04 Strength. There are a few other items here, but the trainers are fairly weak, so grab what you need, battling the trainers along the way. On the fifth floor you will see two old ladies. One will give you HM04: Strength. The other lady will give you a Cleanse Tag. This item, when held by your lead Pokémon, reduces wild Pokémon encounters by 50%. You're done here for now, so go ahead and head on out!

In Platinum, you won't get Strength here so it's optional to go in here but do grab the ghost Pokémon in here. If you do decide to go up you will need Defog after 2F
