Battle Frontier

The Battle Frontier facilities first introduced in Pokémon Platinum have been completely replicated and copied over to an area just west of Olivine City in Johto. These facilities replace the Battle Tower that was originally located there and that was first introduced in Pokémon Crystal.
Below all five of the Frontier Brains are listed with brief explanations on each of their facilites.
Please note that the pages for each of these facilities are located in the Diamond/Pearl/Platinum section of this website. Use the back button on your browser (or alternatively alt + < on your keyboard) to return to this page and the HGSS section. This was done for two reasons: the facilities have not changed and as a byproduct of that the pages would be no different and thus duplication of them would be redundant.
The following list is comprised of Pokémon that are not permitted for use in any of the Battle Frontier facilities. A majority of these Pokémon are the staple Pokémon of each generation of games. Also banned are those base 100 Pokémon from each generation, for instance Mew.
