Pokemon Stadium is an unlicensed Sega Mega Drive game published by SKOB featuring characters from Nintendo's Pokémon franchise and is loosely based on the Nintendo 64 title of the same name. Little is known about the origin of this game; however, it does share some music with Pocket Monster II. A version of the game exists for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System.

Gameplay

The game features a number of first-generation Pokémon which battle each other in 1-on-1 battles. Players need to charge an in-game meter by quickly pressing the A button, and after a specified amount of time, the Pokémon with the highest meter will be allowed to attack its opponent using the B button. Each Pokémon has four skills they can attack their opponent with, with the first skill being the weakest but costs the least amount of energy to use, and the fourth skill being the strongest but the most costly.

Opposing players then have a chance to dodge said attack or defend against it. Defending is a luck-based tactic that only reduces how much damage the Pokémon takes, while choosing to dodge displays a slider that the player must stop the arrow in the middle, and will successfully avoid all damage if they successfully stop it in the middle. These steps are repeated until one Pokémon runs out of health.

The game includes an Arcade Mode for one player and a VS Mode for two players. The Arcade Mode seems to not work properly, since after the first fight (which will always be against Dogas) the game goes back to the title screen.

Pokémon

There are a total of 12 Pokémon to choose from. All names are shortened and/or mispellings of their Japanese names to fit within a 5-character limit much like all of the Japanese Pokémon names. Listed in parenthesis by each in-game name are the official Japanese names followed by their official English names (if different from their Japanese names).
