Crystal Sprout Tower

Bellsprout-worshipping sages keep this tower standing around one endlessly swaying pillar, and you chase your rival up its floors in your first real dungeon.

Sprout Tower is in Johto. In the story you arrive from Violet City to the south and it comes before Route 32.

SPROUT TOWER MAP

Sprout Tower climbs three floors around a giant central pillar that sways with every step, a single spiral to the top that needs no field move at all.

Pokemon Encounters

Sprout Tower runs entirely on a clock. Rattata own every floor by day, then nightfall floods the place with Gastly at 85 percent, an easy early Ghost for the taking.
