The journey continues. I will be taking a look at EVERY official Pokémon video game release in exact North American order. All 66+ games. Eleventh is another sequel to an existing series and this time, it's the generation 2 version of Pokémon Stadium aptly titled Pokémon Stadium 2.
Title sequence, background, Pallet Town remix and "Where's That Parasect?" by Joshua C. Griffin
“Ghost riding the whip” definitely stolen from The Cosmonaut Variety Hour

    I have a friend who I used to abuse this game with, but he was murdered unfortunately. This really brings back the endless battles we had with modded pokemon. Gen 2 competitive pokemon is even more annoying when you have to avoid letting the person next to you see what you can or will do next.

    Seeing the N64 struggle to read the cartridge and start the game put a nice smile on my face: That really is how it was. Can you imagine if a modern game console released and it was as finnicky as the n64 was? I also never really put it together till you mentioned it that the Delibird minigame was basically a retooling of the Likitung one, but you're totally right. Speaking of the minigames, I've always thought that Pokken (which I play competitively and do some community stuff with, I actually shot you an email about your eventual Paraspective on it) would benefit from a similar set of Minigames: Stadium's already focus on reaction time, pattern recognition, or precise timing and spacing, so I could easily see such minigames being used to teach fighting game concepts like timing combos or punishes/spacing moves, or responding to mixups, etc. It'd also be a great way to add some mode variety for more casual players or in a party game context, you could probably reuse the models and animations from the main fighting game mode in them, and In some ways Pokken is similar to the Stadium titles as a more dynamic and better rendered depiction of Pokemon battles vs the mainline series.

    Yeah, after New Snap finally became a thing, I got way more hopeful for a New Stadium game. Like, nowadays, I don't care for an adventure or RPG elements in a Stadium game, but just give us the BEST possible battle simulator, with proper animations, customizable rental teams, being able to use your own Pokémon from Home. And give us challenges like in the old Stadium games, like having actual championships or being able to battle against older Gym Leaders and Elite 4. Also, and here's the most important thing to make it an actual good Stadium game: the mini-games!

    Stadium 2’s far more durable saves is the last archive of People’s original Pokemon for a lot of people. Wish I had loaded some of mine on there now since all of my GB games have dead batteries. Stadium 2 was also the first, and currently only, official way of setting up tiers. It has a custom setting that lets you set up level limits, which Pokemon are allowed, I think it has settings for items even. Never used it since you needed hand raised Pokemon from the GB games for it, but it was way ahead of its time there. The models are actually so good that Colosseum and XD reused them for the first 251 Pokemon, hence Smeargle’s tail color being reversed.

    Pokemon ended after I finished Pokemon Crystal and played all I could out of Pokemon Stadium 2 on the N64. Amazing and beautiful time to be a teenager at the time as I was in high school when I got these games back in the day a few short years before turning 18. When the Nintendo GameCube was released, the world became a darker and more horrifying place after what happened in New York around that time, but my memories was all about escaping the horrible reality by focusing on enjoying myself in some JRPGs that I got more into when I became 18 and could play any JRPG I wanted. Skies of Arcadia (GameCube version) became the JRPG that I resonated most with and that lead me down to some amazing and beautiful Anime inspired JRPGs on the PS3 and the PSP/PS Vita handhelds. But it was the Pokemon games that started that familiarity of JRPGs for me because back when I was a kid, living in PAL region often meant never getting any JRPGs unless you knew where to go to find them.

    Fun fact about Mystery Gift in this game... the game generates two items every time, one for you and one the girl will tell you she got. This is also the only way to get the Scope Lens, an incredibly useful item for competitive play, and one many high-level trainers in the game use! You only have a 0.2% change of getting the Scope Lens and you can only do Mystery Gift once a day (unless you have access to other connections such as Pocket Pikachu 2 or another game) I bring this up mainly to share my salt story of the time where I got a Bitter Berry and the stupid little girl got the Scope Lens. I will never be able to look at her the same way again. That thieving little...

    Pokemon stadium was one of the few games on the oldass N64 at my local rec center in school. Since we didn't have any gamepack, mostly we just play the minigames, but they were so damn fun. For the longest time I had even forgotten about the battling part and thought it was some Pokemon-branded Mario Party clone that we had been playing back in the day.

    I just started thinking, since you mentioned why they didn't mention Venusaur or Raikou or Suicune. Perhaps because Blastoise and Charizard were actually on covers of Pokemon games in North America, so there is the correlation to owners of those games. As far as the legendary dogs, mentioning Suicune might spoil the Crystal coming out, and Raikou would maybe be too much electric or similar to Pichu and Pikachu, which they already mentioned, and their evolution is RAIchu, so maybe they were just keeping it fresh in their own way by mentioning the fire type Entei.

    I'm saddened. I used to have both Stadiums but lost them along with my N64 during a move. I loved both games, but funny enough I didn't even remember 2 until I saw those mini-games. I guess I know what I played the most. lol This vid made me want to replay it. Especially since it hit me that 2 actually does teach you how to play Pokemon than the main games themselves. It sucks that Stadium never got a 4 for gen 3. Battle Revolution isn't the same... But yeah, the 2000s the Pokemon fad was dying and around the early 10s were embers. It was still popular but not like it is nowadays, with the fad resurgence. Good times.

I love that game and I have so many memories with it. but until just very recently, less than a month, I get to play stadium 2 and I was very surprised at what an incredible improvement it is from 1. its A LOT more both in quality and quantity.
