The stage begins on the streets in front of the tower's base in broad daylight. A few seconds into the battle, moving platforms will appear and must be jumped onto to begin the ascent to the top. Near the top, the sun begins to set, and it turns nighttime once at the top, where the players can continue to fight.<ref>https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAADRUqFysvtvtA</ref> Eventually, the platform flies away from the tower, then down back to the front of the tower's base as daylight returns. The stage always plays out in a set order for the same amount of time. | The stage begins on the streets in front of the tower's base in broad daylight.

Like [[Saffron City]], [[Pokémon Stadium 2]], and [[Spear Pillar]], there are Pokémon that appear in the background. {{pkmn|Helioptile}} can be seen on the ground, while {{pkmn|Magnemite}}, [[Zapdos]], {{pkmn|Emolga}}, and {{pkmn|Yveltal}} can be seen while the platform flies around the tower | Like [[Saffron City]], [[Pokémon Stadium 2]], and [[Spear Pillar]], there are Pokémon that appear in the background. {{pkmn|Helioptile}} can be seen on the ground, while {{pkmn|Magnemite}}, [[Zapdos]], {{pkmn|Emolga}}, and {{pkmn|Yveltal}} can be seen while the platform flies around the tower. The base of the tower features two televisions that cycle between advertisements. These include advertisements for {{iw|bulbapedia|Pokémon-Amie}}, {{iw|bulbapedia|Roller Skates}}, the {{iw|bulbapedia|Gogoat Shuttle}}, {{iw|bulbapedia|Holo Caster}}s, and something featuring Kalos Champion {{iw|bulbapedia|Diantha}}, a [[Lucario]], and another indistinguishable character. | ||

In {{for3ds}}, Prism Tower was a counterpick stage. However, despite not having intrusive hazards, it still has many features considered unusual for legal stages in ''SSB4'', such as being a touring stage with an initial walkoff section and another section with multiple platforms with grabbable edges. Its status as a legal stage is largely owed to the poor availability of competitively suitable stages in the 3DS version, and due to its unpopularity in competitive settings, Prism Tower is hardly ever seen in competitive play. | In {{for3ds}}, Prism Tower was a counterpick stage.
