Pokémon Stadium

Pokémon Stadium (Japanese, title: ポケモンスタジアム２ Pokémon Stadium 2, subtitled as Pocket Monsters' Stadium 2) is a Nintendo 64 game that allows players to upload and battle their Pokémon from the first generation Pokémon games, Pokémon Red, Blue, Yellow, and Green in Japan. It features several battle arenas, introducing Stadium Mode's original four cups, the Pika Cup, Petit Cup, Poké Cup, and Prime Cup, the latter two of which would return in the sequel, and the original Gym Leader Castle. It also features new Pokémon cries, a feature that was carried on in the sequel for Pokémon from Generation II.

It was originally released in Japan on April 30, 1999, in North America on February 29, 2000, in Australia on March 23, 2000, and in Europe on April 7, 2000. It was announced during the September 13, 2022 Nintendo Direct that the game would be rereleased as part of the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack in 2023. However, this version of the game is unable to connect to the original Game Boy or Virtual Console games. It was released on April 12, 2023.

This game is the sequel to the mostly incomplete original, which was never released anywhere outside Japan.

Terminology

This game is called "Pokémon Stadium" in English, as it was the first Pokémon Stadium series game released outside Japan. However, it is named ポケモンスタジアム２ (Pokémon Stadium 2) in Japan, as it was released after the game ポケモンスタジアム (Pokémon Stadium), which was never released internationally.

For comparison, the third Japanese game in this series is known as "Pokémon Stadium 2" in English.

Game modes

Title screen

Game mode selection

Free battle

An open battle mode where players can battle with each other or the CPU with their favorite Pokémon. Players can use the Stadium rulesets (plus the available rentals), or choose "Anything Goes" for only the basic rules with no level limit.

Exclusive to Anything Goes is the ability to bring any number of Pokémon from one to six into battle, and play team matches with three or four players. When two players are on a given side, each selects up to three Pokémon to control.

Stadium

Main article: Stadium Mode

This is the main game mode. There are four different cup rules to win; Pika Cup, Petit Cup, Poké Cup, and Prime Cup. In the latter two, there are four levels of difficulty; Poké Ball, Great Ball, Ultra Ball and Master Ball.

Gym Leader Castle

Main article: Gym Leader Castle

In this mode, the goal is to climb to the castle's top by facing, in order, all eight Gym Leaders from Kanto, followed by the Elite Four, and finally the player's rival. Each of the Gym Leaders has three apprentices that the player must defeat first in order to battle the Gym Leader themselves.

When the rival is finally defeated, the player will be rewarded one of the following eight Pokémon at random, each of them uncommon in Generation I and usually only available once in a particular Game Boy game without trading.

+===Changes from previous Stadium game===
+There have been several changes from the earlier game {{jpn|Pokémon Stadium|Japanese Pokémon Stadium}}.
+* All 151 [[Generation I]] Pokémon are playable in battle, as opposed to only 40 Pokémon.
+* This game was localized in English, as well as multiple European languages, while the previous game was only available in Japanese.
+* The {{OBP|Pokémon Lab|Stadium}} was introduced in this game. The {{OBP|PC|Stadium}}, trade machine, and machine to switch Game Boy games were also introduced in this game.
+** The {{OBP|Pokédex|Stadium}} is now located in the Pokémon Lab. The "List" feature (a large table listing Pokémon), and the features to arrange Pokémon, items, and Boxes are now located in the PC. (All these features were introduced in Japanese Pokémon Stadium, but they were simply found at the [[main menu]].)
+** The Nintendo 64 Pokémon storage in previous game had 4 Boxes for 30 Pokémon each (total 120). This was expanded in this game, as the Japanese version has 8 Boxes with 30 Pokémon slots each (total 240) and the English version has 12 Boxes with 20 slots each (total 240).
+* In the previous Stadium game, the player was required to save at a [[Pokémon Center]] (in the connected [[core series]] game) in order to use the {{OBP|Pokédex|Stadium}}. In the current Stadium game, the player can freely use the Pokédex, no matter where they saved.
+* Several [[Pokémon Stadium series mini-games|minigames]] were introduced in this game.
+* The {{ga|Red's Pikachu|first partner Pikachu}} from {{game|Yellow}} says its name in battle (voiced by [[Ikue Ohtani]]), as opposed to other Pikachu, which have the usual electronic noise [[cry]]. This Pikachu's idle animation is also different from that of other Pikachu. It keeps swinging its head to the sides, with its ears slightly uneven. This Pikachu's voice and pose are also seen in the Gallery (only available in the English version).
+* In the previous game, two Pokémon could repeatedly use {{m|Transform}} against each other (replenishing their own PP with each use), potentially causing an endless battle. In this game, Transform fails if used against a Ditto. However, two {{p|Mew}} can still freely use Transform against each other.
 ===Localization changes===
 Like the Generation I handheld games, Pokémon Stadium had several changes from the Japanese version.
-*The Japanese version had six Stadium Cups. In addition to the Pika, Petit, and Prime Cups, there were three cups based upon [[Rule variants#Japanese tournaments|official tournaments]]: the [[Rule variants#Pokémon Stadium|Nintendo Cup '97, Nintendo Cup '98, and Nintendo Cup '99]]. In the international versions, the Nintendo Cups were replaced with the Poké Cup from Pokémon Yellow's Colosseum 2.
-*A Gallery mode was added.

-*A method to obtain a Surf Pikachu was added. Japanese players could only obtain a Surf Pikachu in the [[Pokémon Stadium (Japanese)#Special Pokémon|original Pokémon Stadium]].
+* Several [[rental Pokémon]] had their movesets changed between the Japanese and localized versions.
-*The number of teams that could be registered was decreased from 12 to 10.
+* A gallery mode was added, but only in the American version (it is absent in Japanese and European versions).
+** In the Japanese and European versions, the [[main menu]] has the "[[options]]" button in the middle, below the "Pokémon Stadium" option. In the American version, the "gallery" button was added where the "options" would be in other games, and the "options" button was moved to the right side.
+* {{p|Pikachu}} can be taught {{m|Surf}} under special conditions. Japanese players could teach a Pikachu Surf in the [[Pokémon Stadium (Japanese)#Special Pokémon|original Pokémon Stadium]].
+* The number of teams that could be registered was decreased from 12 to 10.
+* In Clefairy Says, the Clefairy sing rather than repeat the same sound effect.
 ==Special Pokémon==

-* [[Cry|Pokémon cries]] have a much more realistic sound in this game. However, the only one to actually say its name like in the {{pkmn|anime}} is [[Red's Pikachu (game)|the starter Pikachu]] when it is used from {{game|Yellow}}. This is likely because not all Pokémon had been given a voice in the anime yet.

+* This was the first home console game to have all Pokémon in its generation usable in battle.

 * Rocket's Pokémon have numbers in their nicknames, even though this was not possible until [[Generation III]]. The same applies for {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s in the sequel.
-* This was the first Pokémon game that allowed more than two players to battle at one time. This feature would not be implemented into the [[Version|handheld]] games until Generation III.

+* This is the only game where [[Lance]] does not use a {{TP|Lance|Dragonite}} at any point in the game.
-* Unlike handheld games<!--- at least up to Emerald, like with Pomeg Glitch where it shows some glitched number like ?35 !--->, if due to glitches (like Pokémon "growing" from Lv. 255 to Lv. 0, thus lowering HP) Pokémon current HP happens to be below 0, it's shown properly (like 64569).
+* Unlike in the handheld games, if due to glitches (like Pokémon "growing" from Lv. 255 to Lv. 0, thus lowering HP) a Pokémon's current HP is below 0, this displays properly (like 64569).
+* Clearing the Gym Leader Castle and Prime Cup on Master Ball mode will unlock an alternate title screen.
+* Although there is a 1'4" (0.4&nbsp;m) difference between {{p|Nidoking}} and {{p|Venonat}}, the two appear to be the same height in battle.
+* If a Pokémon knows four HM moves, using a TM in the menu allows the first move to be overwritten. This is the only way to replace HM moves in Generation I.
+* {{p|Jynx}}'s body color was changed from black to purple between the 1.0 and 1.1 English releases to avoid [[Jynx (Pokémon)#Controversy|further controversy]].
+* According to an FAQ page that was available in February 1999 on [[Pokémon.com]], there were no plans to release an American version of {{jpn|Pokémon Stadium}}, as well as any other Pokémon games that have been only released in Japanese at the time.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/19990221021626/http://www.pokemon.com/games/faq.html</ref> This referred to the first Pokémon Stadium game (the version with only 42 Pokémon available for battles), which was never released in English.
+* Moves that are flagged as illegal by the game are displayed in purple in the battle menu, and the Trainer's name is displayed in purple as well.
+* The VS portraits for the Elite Four strongly resemble their artwork in the board game [[Pokémon Master Trainer (1999)]].
+* The VS portraits for the Gym Leaders all resemble their headshots drawn by Ken Sugimori, with [[Blaine]]'s being from the Red and Green manual, as opposed to his original design found in early promotional material.

Move	Type
Bide	Normal	{{{5}}}	{{{6}}}	A move can now be selected during each of Bide's idling turns. Bide will miss against any Pokémon that is in the middle of Dig, Fly, or a similar semi-invulnerable state.
Counter	Fighting	{{{5}}}	{{{6}}}	No longer capable of countering itself or self-inflicted recoil damage if the opponent does not make a move on a subsequent turn after using Counter.
Disable	Normal	{{{5}}}	{{{6}}}	Now causes a Pokémon's rage to build only if successful. The disabled move's PP is not replaced with a "disabled!" message, though attempting to select the move will still result in a notice that the move is disabled.
Focus Energy	Normal	{{{5}}}	{{{6}}}	Increases the user's critical hit ratio to $\left\lfloor {\tfrac {(BaseSpeed+236)}{512}}\right\rfloor$
Haze	Ice	{{{5}}}	{{{6}}}	Eliminates any major status ailments that the user has
Hyper Beam	Normal	{{{5}}}	{{{6}}}	Recharges even if it missed or defeated the target
Mimic	Normal	{{{5}}}	{{{6}}}	Will no longer copy a move's maximum PP
Mirror Move	Flying	{{{5}}}	{{{6}}}	Will now copy multi-turn moves during either of the turns they take to execute
Psywave	Psychic	{{{5}}}	{{{6}}}	Always deals at least 1 damage
Rage	Normal	{{{5}}}	{{{6}}}	Its accuracy does not drop when it misses. Disable causes Rage to build only when Disable hits.
Rest	Psychic	{{{5}}}	{{{6}}}	No longer fails when difference between the user's maximum HP and current HP leaves a remainder of 255 when divided by 256 (such as 255 or 511). It removes stat drops from burn and paralysis and resets the Toxic counter.
Struggle	Normal	{{{5}}}	{{{6}}}	Can hit Ghost Pokémon
Substitute	Normal	{{{5}}}	{{{6}}}	Prevents all HP-draining moves and non-volatile status conditions, Selfdestruct and Explosion users still faint when the move breaks a substitute.
Transform	Normal	{{{5}}}	{{{6}}}	Transform will not work if the target's current species is Ditto. The transformed Pokémon appears with the normal colors of the target.
