Pokémon selection screen before a battle in the "Pokémon Stadium Enhanced Rentals" mod. This is before the semifinal of the Pika Cup, featuring Lass, one of the most infamous trainers in the entire game, known for her level 20 Tentacruel and Gyarados, who have ended countless runs through this cup over the years.
And yet, I swept this particular battle because, for some crazy reason, Lass did not bring her Gyarados or Tentacruel. I had never swept her before, whether in a mod or in the original game. I was quite shocked, but nonetheless happy to move on.
All battles beaten in the Pika Cup! There are eight battles, and winning each battle earns you a badge, and these badges are the same ones who earn by defeating Gym Leaders in the Generation 1 games (Red/Blue/Yellow).
"PIKA CUP CLEAR" Trophy for winning the Pika Cup.
Tested some of the updated rentals with a run through the Pika Cup, which includes the infamous Lass in the semifinal... Who I swept for a "Perfect" because she didn't bring Tentacruel or Gyarados. The rentals really are noticeably better with this mod. #retro #retrogaming #pokemon #n64 #nintendo64
"Pokémon Stadium" title screen. Played on an emulator.
The "Enhanced Rentals" mod for Stadium modifies every rental Pokémon's moves and stats to make them more viable for those who don't have their own Pokémon. This is big because rental Pokémon in the Stadium series are notoriously poor (especially in Stadium 2). This screenshot shows the updated moveset for the rental Zapdos for the Poké Cup.
Another example of the "Enhanced Rentals" rom hack for Pokémon Stadium, showing the moveset for the rental Abra in the Petit Cup.
Another example of an updated moveset in the "Enhanced Rentals" mod, showing a rental Raichu in battle in the Pika Cup. One of the new moves given to the Raichu is Surf, a Water-type move that Raichu cannot learn under normal circumstances except through a special event involving its pre-evolved form, Pikachu.
The old Pokémon Stadium games were great but if you were stuck with rentals then you weren't getting nearly as much value because of how bad they were. Found out about this "Enhanced Rentals" mod that fixes that for Stadium 1 and makes them viable. #retro #retrogaming #pokemon #n64 #nintendo64

For example, that bridge shortcut looks completely different on PS2.

I'm familiar with the PS2 version so I was confused at some of the features looking different here, then I remembered the other versions were developed by a completely different studio.

Well, I only realized five minutes ago that the GameCube logo is a stylized "G." I think I'm done. Time to pack it in.
If it doesn't include this game then it's pointless.
Diss pro wrestling, you will get blocked. Even if I agree with you on everything else.

Hitmonlee, the Kicking Fiend. I ultimately picked this one over Hitmonchan.
Hitmonchan has an interesting gimmick where it learns elemental punches, but it has such a pathetic Special stat that it's useless. Combine that with Fighting-types getting screwed over HARD in Gen 1, and you have a Pokémon that isn't worth having except to fill out the Pokédex.
Beating the Fighting Dojo gets you not a badge, but a choice between two unique Fighting-type Pokémon. I went with Hitmonlee over Hitmonchan. #retro #retrogaming #gaming #pokemon #pokemon30
