STADIUM II TIPS

Now that STADIUM 2 is out, I thought I should put up some tips for it. Of course, most of the game is the same as STADIUM I, so refer to STADIUM I TIPS for the most information.

Now, there are some new features for STADIUM 2:

  • There are an extra 100 types of Pokémon to fight with.
  • The Pika Cup and Petit Cup are gone; the Little Cup and Challenge Cup have taken their place.
  • Gym Leader Castle is MUCH longer.
  • After a few tournaments, you'll be able to use the Game Boy Tower to speed up your games, like in STADIUM I. Gold and Silver can be sped up as well by winning the appropriate tournaments.
  • You can store Pokémon on the 64's database, but you can't remove Pokémon of a different ID number until 150 Pokémon have been captured on your present game file.
  • Earl's Pokémon Academy will teach you everything this site has on it and more. The site may even become obsolete because of this. Heck, almost no one looks at it anyway.
  • Weaknesses have been changed on some Pokémon. See the New GS Tips section for more details.
  • During Stadium fights, your Pokémon or the enemy may strike a "weak point." When that happens, attack damage is doubled.
  • Some attacks will hurt Pokémon when they DIG or FLY. EARTHQUAKE will really hurt an underground Pokémon. More on this later. Also, STOMP's attack power doubles when the enemy uses MINIMIZE.

ABOUT THE TM RE-LEARNER

After defeating Lance, you can have one of your party's Pokémon relearn a level skill it has forgotten. This doesn't apply to registered Pokémon. TMs forgotten cannot be relearned. Smeargle can't keep storing different attacks until it's learned everything. So, technically, it's not a TM re-learner, but a level skill re-learner. Sorry!
