A bit disappointing...

I rented this game and found it to be very disappointing. It was, however, very useful and fun in some areas including Earl's PKM Academy and the games. Unfortunately, the graphics on the new pokemon weren't very... good. I was very disappointed when I found that the gallery was removed. That is my favourite feature in PS1, and I really missed it in PS2. My advice is not to buy this game, but to rent it if and when you feel like playing it.

you'd have more fun serving food to the elderly

...Instead of getting the game, why don't you get your pets to beat up each other? Same thing! Except the pokemon look like villians from power rangers. You know... big weird multi colered plastic armor, purple skin, the works. The moves are like: sand smack, bubble gun, breathe, smack, hit, injure, maim, scratch, scream, and run away. Some idiot commentator says the same thing over and over. So in conclusion, micowave applesauce and see what happens. It is more entertaining.

GREAT GAME, BUT IT REALLY CHEATS LIKE INSANE!!

i agree with the good stuff about this game in the other reviews, so i won't waste time there. The good stuff outways the bad stuff, but here is what i consider to be the "bad stuff."

this game CHEATS on an INSANE level!! it REALLY does. i'm mainly talking about when you face off against the computer in the higher levels of the game. for instance, the computer gets critical hits left and right, and @ pivital moments in the fight. you almost never get them except when you were going to knock out the enemy anyway. when you're affected by an adverse condition it's effect is nearly double what it's supposed to be, and for the computer it doesn't do much. sleep? he wakes up next turn. confused? he's unconfused next turn, or if longer, he almost never attacks himself. paralyzed? the 25% attack prevention becomes about 5%. attract? prevents attacks about 1 out of 10 times. also, when you use 100% accuracy attacks, they miss about 1 out of 10 times. when computer uses 50% accuracy moves, it hits about 85% of the time. moves that have 1 in 10 of putting adverse condition on you? they do it about 45% of the time. all in all, basic strategy helps you get through first half of the game, from there on out you can ONLY win by luck. why? because the rules of the game go out the window for the computer attacking you, and get harder for you attacking it. if you have a bad temper, it gets really frustrating, so if you're gonna get this game, buy about 5 copies, 'cos you're gonna SMASH @ least 3-4 of them. other than the fact that the game developers should be lynched, this game is really great!!

This is a great game.Much better than the first one.The minigames are fun and I love allthe cool stuff it can do to your gameboy game like mystery gift or extra game corner coins.The grafics are good and game play is as good as on the game boy.The only thing I didn't like was the annoying announcer who sometimes mispronounces the Pokemon's names.But other than that I definitely recomend this game.

An Unforgettable Classic

Pokemon Stadium 2 has got to be one of the greatest games I've ever played. I have more memories as a child playing this, alone and with friends and family! This game has more fun things to do than I ever imagined when I bought it. It has:

Stadium Play - where you compete in various challenging tournaments (following the same battle style as the rest of the Pokemon series) These were much harder for me than the Gameboy battles.
The Academy - where you read and fight to complete lessons concerning battles. They teach valuable strategies and rules and give great examples about it all.
The Gym Leader Castle - Rather like the Stadium Play, but it features more familiar faces from the Gameboy series.
Game Boy Tower - If you have the component that plugs into the N64 controller, you can actually play your Gameboy on the TV! This came in handy when I was a little child with terrible eyes. I believe many of the games come with this item included.
Mini Games - If you don't like battling or don't want to learn at the academy, then buy Pokemon Stadium 2 for the mini games. I'm dead serious when I say my cousins and I played these every Christmas and Easter and Thanksgiving for years and years and years. I have more childhood memories playing these than any other game I've ever played. It has around 15 mini games featuring all sorts of styles and Pokemon. If you plug your Gameboy game into the controller, you can actually play some of these as your own Pokemon.

Well, that's Pokemon Stadium 2 in a nutshell. It's a great game to buy if you're looking for something fun for your children, or if you want to play classic games in all sorts of styles just for the fun of it! In all of this, though, the more people you play it with, the more fun you'll have.
