Pokémon world locations |
Sky Pillar (Japanese: そらのはしら Sky Pillar) is a location in Hoenn. It is located on the northern edge of Route 131 in Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald.
On top of Sky Pillar lies Rayquaza, the highest-leveled wild Pokémon in the game.
Like many special locations in Hoenn, players must have the Mach Bike in order to navigate through it fully, as there are broken parts of the floor on the second and fourth floors. On every other floor, there are wild Altaria, Banette, Claydol, Dusclops, Golbat, Mawile, and Sableye.
Sky Pillar must be accessed earlier in Pokémon Emerald. Rayquaza is needed to abate the conflict in Sootopolis City between Groudon and Kyogre. As a result of this, the wild Pokémon are lower leveled, and less of the floor is cracked. Unlike Emerald, the player must first defeat the Elite Four to access Sky Pillar in Ruby and Sapphire.

In the manga
In the Pokémon Adventures manga, Norman and Wally trek up the pillar together. The pillar is a maze which requires both an adult and a child to go through (a child to go through the small tunnels and an adult to pull the heavy chains to open doors in those tunnels). While trekking through the tunnels, Wally realizes that Norman in fact wanted to climb up the pillar with his son, Ruby.
Trivia
- The Sky Pillar is the only place with legendary Pokémon over level 50 which can be accessed before the Elite Four in any game.
- In Pokémon Emerald, it is required to advance to the top of Sky Pillar to get further into the game, whereas in Ruby and Sapphire it is optional to go there.
