The '''Pokémon Stadium series''' was a spin-off series of Pokémon games released during [[Generation I]] and [[Generation II]] and compatible with the games of those generations. In the games of this series, players can upload Pokémon from their [[Game Boy]] games to battle in 3D in various modes, most notably [[Stadium Mode]], featuring various classes for trainers to beat, and the [[Gym Leader Castle]], featuring the [[Gym Leader]]s, [[Elite Four]], and [[Champion]] of the respective generation's games.

When [[Generation III]] was released, many expected a third (fourth in Japan) Stadium game to surface, complete with a [[Hoenn]] Gym Leader Castle. However, this was not meant to be, and instead players were treated to two RPGs, [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness|XD]], and a separate storage system, [[Pokémon Box Ruby & Sapphire]]. In the most basic sense, the Stadium series had ended. However, in the [[Generation IV|fourth generation]], [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]] brings back many of the features of the Stadium series, such as [[Little Cup]], the division to rounds and prize Pokémon. However, there is neither a [[Sinnoh]] Gym Leader Castle, a storage system nor a mini-game mode.
