Pokemon Stadium divisions differences explained
In Pokemon Stadium, there are many things to do in the game. One of the main battle grinds stems from the following different cups.
- Pokeball
- Great Ball
- Ultra Ball
- Master Ball
Each cup has four total divisions, increasing in difficulty. In order to unlock the next division of the cup, you simply need to beat the previous division.
The main difference between the divisions is that the trainers will have stronger Pokemon with more competitive movesets. For example, in the PokeCup, a trainer in the PokeBall division may have a Nidoran(f) on their team, whereas in the Great Ball division, that same trainer might have a Nidorina.
In round 2 - an unlockable difficulty - the same divisions, but the Pokemon and AI continue to get harder as you go through the different cups.
