Stadium edit

There are 4 main stadium cups that the player can participate in.[1] There are 8 trainers to battle in each cup. Also in each cup a team of 6 Pokemon is assembled from either rental Pokemon or imported Pokemon from a Game Boy cartridge, with the exception of the Challenge Cup, and for each battle only 3 Pokemon are selected.[1] One cup that can be challenged is the Little Cup. In this cup unevolved level 5 Pokemon are used. Another cup that can be challenged is the Poke Cup. In this cup Pokemon that are level 50-55 can be used, and there are 4 different waves of 8 trainers to battle (Poke Ball, Great Ball, Ultra Ball, and Master Ball). The third cup that can be challenged is the Prime Cup. In this cup any Pokemon that is level 1-100 can be used, but the other trainers will always have level 100 Pokemon. The final cup that can be challenged is the Challenge Cup.[1] There are 4 different waves of trainers in this cup, just like for the Poke Cup, but each cup has a different level requirement.[2] The Poke Ball wave has level 30 Pokemon, the Great Ball wave has level 45 Pokemon, the Ultra Ball wave has level 60 Pokemon, and the Master Ball wave has level 75 Pokemon.

The difference is that it begins with the Johto region gym leaders[3], then the Elite Four can be battled[3], after that then your rival Silver[1] can be battled, next the Kanto region gym leaders can be battled[4], and the final trainer is the Pokemon Champion Red[4] .
