In the 2D Mystery Dungeon vidya (the GBA and DS ones), the way the Gen 1 and 2 'mons move when doing moves can resemble how they move in the Stadium vidya, like Mew. But in the newer 3D vidyas, it seems the 'mons just stiffly hop up and down or something when they use moves. Like how they don't really move when using moves in newer main vidya.
The scope was far too narrow to be considered a proper Stadium entry, probably why they didn't call it that. Even Stadium 1 had more meat on its bones, let alone Stadium 2. Stadium 3 should be packed with content, Revolution also had some bad design decisions as on top of its missing features & content. They're incomparable beyond the core concept of "Pokemon battling in 3D without needing raise them". If it underperformed then they only have themselves to blame for a half-baked title.
I liked them and they were more memorable than anything after gen 3, maybe even better than that too.
I remember seeing animation comparisons between Stadium and modern 3D ones, it was embarrassing for Game Freak. I played one of the GBA Mystery Dungeon a long time ago, I don't remember the animations, I'm gonna replay it again and pay attention. I appreciate details like that more nowadays.
I never had a problem with the first TCG game honestly, the starting deck is fine (at least the Squirtle + Abra one) and it's not that hard to grind for packs as any NPC fight gives you 2 for just beating them. Only thing I would love to see in a remake/third game is to have an in-game list of opponents you fought and the packs they give. I guess a shop to buy specific cards with in-game currency wouldn't be bad either.
What about the Colosseum vidya? That had a whole story.
It doesn't work for me. Seems like every time I select the "Don't recommend channel" option on fags like these, two more will pop up in my feed.
Battle Revolution had 36 pokemon in its rental roster and the only stage 3 Pokemon was Pidgeot. The OG Japanese Pokemon Stadium had more Pokemon and with the exception of Pikachu they were all fully evolved.
"Rental" 'mons have crappier moves with more evolution. Like Kadabra has Psychic, Counter, Dig, and Recover... and Alakazam has Psybeam, Tri Attack, Metronome, and Disable.
lol, lmao even
Reminds me of this Reverend video going over the anomalies in Counter in RBY. He counter'd his own Explosion damage.
Level 50 Gabite with Sand Tomb and Dragon Rush as its STAB moves is one of the Battle Pass mons in Battle Revolution.
Still better moveset than that Alakazam has. Also back then a good moveset for Alakazam could be something like Reflect or Thunder Wave, Seismic Toss, Recover, and Psychic.
was talking about Stadium 1 and 2 'mons

I was comparing the Japanese Stadium movesets for rentals to the Battle Pass rentals. Pokemon Stadium still let Starmie with Recover, Thunderbolt, and Hydro Pump slip through. One of the best movesets you will see for a Battle Pass rental is this:
If they made a Stadium 3, maybe they'd make the "rental" mons have totally random moves. Like a Lapras with Substitute, Helping Hand, Haze, and Whirlpool.
Special Guts Machamp.
Does arena trap or shadow tag work? I know they keep pokemon from manually retreating.
I don't think so. I think Ingrain works, if I recall. Just out of curiousity; how do you have Entei and Mt Ember? Are you doing a randomizer or rom hack? Or am I misremembering something.
Yeah, I am playing a romhack
