Poké Cup

From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.

The Poké Cup is one of the four Stadium Cups, appearing in both Pokémon Stadium and Pokémon Stadium 2.

It is presented as being the officially-sponsored Pokémon League tournament, though unlike what would be thought, not all Pokémon are allowed for use. More specifically, Mewtwo, Mew, Lugia, Ho-Oh and Celebi are all disallowed.

The Cup has a level restriction on it as well, only allowing Pokémon between the levels of 50 and 55 to compete. In addition, the three-Pokémon team chosen by the player at the beginning of a battle may not have a total level sum above 155. This means as well that the six-Pokémon team chosen to compete can't have more than four Pokémon of level 55.

There are four levels that may be challenged; each level up must be unlocked by defeating the eight trainers on the previous level.
