This is probably a question for @Glen-i and theoretical as I can't see GF ever wanting to do it; but how different are the generation 1/2 Pokémon now from when these games were released? If they found some technical solution to transfer generation 1/2 Pokémon from SV would they be able to or have the movesets changed so much that it just wouldn't really work? Presume the actual answer is a murkier "some yes, some no" but thought I'd give you a chance to be nerdy. -
And there it is, Happy Vale– –oh, what do you mean the "leakers" got the date wrong? Per the PS Blog entry, this one will be over 40 minutes long! Excited for this one, feels like it's been a minute! I'll drop some perilously naïve thoughts/hopes/dreams/predictions later on -
Beta codes are out! And the art for the game looks noooooooice I spied a certain @drahkon owning the beta under this – looking forward to hearing your thoughts on it! Looking at the times I think I'm aiming for the 11:00 - 14:00 slots on Friday (14th) and Sunday (16th), maybe get a bit extra in on the Saturday during the 19:00 - 22:00 slot if I'm really feeling it EDIT: loaded it up. Oof, that menu music

Pokemon Stadium 2 (or 3, if you live in Japan), is an excellent expansion pack to Pokemon G/S/C. But without that Transfer Pak support? It really is utterly crippled as a standalone purchase. Luckily the minigames are all top-shelf, making it a worthwhile multiplayer party game on NSO, but without the ability to transfer your 'mons back and forth between the GB games? You lose about 90% of its intended use. Real shame, because it compliments those GB games real nicely; and it was an absolute must-buy for fans of the GB games back in the day. -
Pokémon Stadium 2 JP release: 14th December 2000 NA release: 26th March 2001 EU release: 10th October 2001 Developer: Nintendo Publisher: Nintendo N64 Magazine Score: 90% Pokémon Stadium 2 is, once again, a great companion piece for the handheld games, this time for Pokémon Gold & Silver. All the Pokémon are lovingly rendered and animated in 3D, with some great tough challenges to take your ultimate squad through. Stadium 2 takes this one step further with the Pokémon Academy, which teaches you how to be better at the main games. For people who liked the handheld games, Stadium is a wonderful thing to dip into as you work your way through Gold & Silver. There’s a bunch of new minigames, which are all decent. I quite like the Beyblade minigame, as well as the Furret minigame where you franticly use the D-pad to move balls into your goal. There’s also a quiz with a few difficulty levels. The easy is more about how fast you can be with simple questions, while hard goes in for technical details like asking you the weight of Doduo. All the organising features also return, making this a wonderful companion – it’s just a shame that it suffers the same rental Pokémon issue for those that just want a standalone game. Fun Remake or remaster? You don’t really need companion pieces to Pokémon games now that there’s no console separation. Although a repackage of the various Pokémon Stadium games with better compatibility with currently available, or just greater options for selecting Pokémon would be good. Official Ways to get the game There is no way to buy a new copy of Pokémon Stadium 2, the only official way to play is to rent it via the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pak. It should also be noted that it has no Game Boy compatibility, so you’re stuck with the rental Pokémon.
