Little Cup (Japanese: リトルカップ Little Cup) is one of four Stadium Cups introduced in Pokémon Stadium 2. It was introduced for players to compete with newly-hatched baby Pokémon. It also tests the player's Pokémon breeding skills, as specific egg moves are highly desirable.
Although the Little Cup is for Pokémon hatched from an egg, Pokémon caught in the wild can be entered as well. However, they follow the same restrictions and must not be evolved.
In Generation IV, Little Cup rules can be selected in Single Battle mode and Double Battle mode at the Pokémon Communication Club Colosseum. However, it is not available in Flat Battle mode. A rule similar to Little Cup known as Little Battle also debuted in Pokémon Battle Revolution.
Restrictions
The following restrictions are implied in the Little Cup:
- All Pokémon must be at Level 5, without exception.
- Pokémon must be of the lowest stage in their evolutionary line and must be able evolve.
- This rule varies with generation: for example, in Generation II, Tangela, which evolves into Tangrowth only in Generation IV, cannot be entered as it was the only Pokémon in its evolutionary line at the time. However, Marill can be entered, as Azurill was not introduced until Generation III.
- Set-damage moves like Dragon Rage or SonicBoom will have no effect.
- These moves do damage that is usually greater than the HP of most Level 5 Pokémon, and are thus not allowed.
Generation IV
In Generation IV, the following also applies:
- Only three Pokémon may be chosen.
- "Special Pokémon" may not be entered. This includes "Banned Pokémon".
- No two Pokémon in any one team may have the same National Pokédex number.
- No two Pokémon in any one team may be holding the same item.
