Eevee Tower Guide: Let's Go Eevee Walkthrough
Hey guys! Ready to tackle the spooky Eevee Tower in Pokémon: Let's Go, Eevee? This place is crawling with Ghost-type Pokémon and a whole lot of mystery. Don't worry, though, I've got your back! This walkthrough will guide you through every floor, ensuring you snag all the important items, defeat every trainer, and ultimately, put the restless spirits to rest. Let's dive in!
Preparing for Eevee Tower
Before even stepping foot inside, let's make sure you're prepared for the challenges ahead. First and foremost, stock up on items. Potions, Super Potions, and Burn Heals will be your best friends here. Ghost-type Pokémon can hit hard, and status conditions like burn can really ruin your day. You can purchase these items at any Poke Mart.
Next up, consider your team composition. Ghost-type Pokémon are weak to Ghost and Dark-type moves. While you might not have a full team of dedicated counters this early in the game, try to have at least one Pokémon with a move that can exploit these weaknesses. Normal-type moves, on the other hand, won't affect Ghost-types at all, so keep that in mind when choosing your attacks. Since this tower has ghost type pokemons, it is best to consider bringing dark type pokemons with you. This is very important to consider before entering the tower, because it may become difficult for you if you only bring normal type pokemon with you, so make sure to bring the appropriate type before entering the tower.
Finally, level up your team a bit. Aim for around level 25 or higher to make the battles more manageable. Grinding in the areas just outside Lavender Town is a great way to get some extra experience points.
Navigating the Eevee Tower
Okay, with our preparations complete, let's head inside the Eevee Tower. The tower has multiple floors, each with its own set of challenges and encounters. Be prepared for some winding paths and a few puzzles along the way. Here’s a floor-by-floor breakdown:
1F: The Entrance
As you enter, you'll immediately notice the somber atmosphere. Talk to the Channeler standing near the entrance; she’ll give you some insight into the tower's history. There are also a few trainers wandering around, eager to battle. Defeating them will give you some extra experience and cash.
- Trainers: Youngster Timmy (level 21 Rattata, level 21 Ekans), Lass Sarah (level 21 Pikachu, level 21 Jigglypuff)
 - Items: Potion (near the stairs), Escape Rope (hidden in a corner)
 
2F: Ghostly Encounters
This floor is where you'll start encountering wild Ghost-type Pokémon like Gastly. These guys can be tricky, so be ready to use your type advantages. You'll also find a few more trainers looking for a fight.
- Trainers: Channeler Jody (level 23 Gastly), Gambler Jeremy (level 22 Koffing, level 22 Grimer)
 - Items: Super Potion (behind a grave), TM36 (Toxic) (requires Cut)
 
3F: More Trainers and Items
The third floor continues the trend of Ghost-type encounters and trainer battles. Keep an eye out for hidden items; they can be incredibly useful.
- Trainers: Channeler Paula (level 23 Gastly), Gentleman Thomas (level 22 Growlithe, level 22 Ponyta)
 - Items: Awakening (near a bookshelf), Revive (hidden in a vase)
 
4F: The Puzzle Floor
This floor presents a small puzzle. You'll need to navigate around some obstacles and use strategically placed tiles to progress. Don't worry; it's not too complicated. Just take your time and think about your moves.
- Trainers: Channeler Angelica (level 23 Gastly), Rocker Billy (level 22 Voltorb, level 22 Electrode)
 - Items: Great Ball (behind a crate), X Accuracy (on the puzzle platform)
 
5F: The Upper Levels
As you climb higher, the atmosphere becomes more intense. The encounters become more frequent, and the trainers get tougher. Make sure your Pokémon are healed up and ready for anything.
- Trainers: Channeler Karina (level 24 Haunter), Cue Ball Nick (level 23 Machop, level 23 Machoke)
 - Items: Full Heal (near a window), TM30 (Shadow Ball) (requires Surf)
 
6F: Reaching the Top
Finally, you've reached the top floor. Here, you'll find the source of the tower's unrest: a grieving Marowak whose spirit is preventing the Pokémon Tower to be a place of rest for deceased Pokemon. Before you can proceed, you'll have to face Team Rocket, who are trying to exploit the situation for their own gain.
- Trainer: Team Rocket Grunt (level 25 Koffing, level 25 Drowzee)
 - Items: Nugget (dropped by Team Rocket Grunt)
 
Confronting the Ghost
After defeating Team Rocket, you'll encounter the ghost of Marowak. You can't battle it in the traditional sense; any Poké Balls you throw will simply bounce off. Instead, you'll need to use a special item to soothe its spirit.
- The Silph Scope: If you haven't already, you'll need to obtain the Silph Scope from Team Rocket's hideout in Celadon City. This item allows you to identify the ghost and understand its plight.
 
With the Silph Scope in hand, return to the top of the tower. You'll now be able to see Marowak's spirit clearly. After a brief cutscene, the spirit will finally find peace and pass on. Marowak does not want Team Rocket to be using the remains of Pokemon for their nefarious goals, so it has been restless since it was killed by the organization. After the battle with Team Rocket and understanding the grievance of Marowak, you will be able to proceed forward in the game.
Rewards and Aftermath
With Marowak's spirit at peace, the Eevee Tower returns to its former glory. The grateful Mr. Fuji will reward you for your efforts.
- Reward: Mr. Fuji will give you the Poké Flute, which can be used to wake up sleeping Snorlax blocking your path on Route 12 and Route 16.
