From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
Fancy Cup (Japanese: ファンシーカップ Fancy Cup), known as the Petit Cup in Generation I, is set of battle rules that appear in Pokémon Yellow, Pokémon Stadium, and the Generation IV core series games. In Pokémon Stadium, it is an intermediate-level Stadium Cup.
The restrictions include a level restriction: in Generation I, the Pokémon can be only between level 25 and 30; in Generation IV, the Pokémon are only required to be level 30 or lower. Additionally, the combined total level of the three-Pokémon battle team must be no more than 80. Evolved Pokémon are not permitted (species that have baby Pokémon are considered evolved in Generation IV). Mythical Pokémon and Phione are also prohibited. There are also height and weight restrictions: Pokémon must have a height no more than 2 m (6'07") and a weight no more than 20 kg (44.1 lbs.) to compete.
With these restrictions, in Generation I only 45 Pokémon are eligible to be used in the Petit Cup.
In Generation IV, Fancy Cup rules can be chosen in the Single Battle or Double Battle mode at the Pokémon Communication Club Colosseum (it is not available in Flat Battle mode). Fancy Cup becomes available in Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum once the player has two Pokémon. In HeartGold and SoulSilver, in addition to having two Pokémon, the player's childhood friend (Lyra or Ethan) must have shown the player how to catch Pokémon and given them five Poké Balls.
