Lavender Town is the strangest city in all of the Kanto region, home to the Pokemon Tower, itself a massive structure dedicated to dead Pokemon. While exploring the Pokemon Tower, players are attacked by ghosts that can't be seen without special technology, and also have to deal with some unsettling background music that effectively sets Lavender Town's eerie t
