'''Pokémon Stadium 2''' ({{ja|ポケモンスタジアム2|Pokemon Sutajiamu 2}}, ''Pokémon Stadium 2'') is a stage in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', {{forwiiu}} and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', based on the {{uv|Pokémon}} universe. It is the successor to [[Pokémon Stadium]] in [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]], with all new transformation types. Unlike its predecessor, the types feature effects relevant to the type.

===General overview===
[[File:RichterZeldaPokémonStadium2Ultimate.jpg|thumb|left|{{SSBU|Richter}} and {{SSBU|Zelda}} beginning a match on Pokémon Stadium 2 in ''Ultimate''.]]
Overall, this stage works very similarly to ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''{{'}}s [[Pokémon Stadium]]: it switches from a basic version to type-inspired transformations. The layout of the basic version is extremely similar to the ''Melee'' version, with a main platform with a solid pillar underneath and two floating [[soft platform]]s on the sides. The background features a crowd, much farther away than the one in the original Pokémon Stadium, and a jumbotron which, like the one in Pokémon Stadium, displays either the battle, a symbol denoting the upcoming transformation, or the current standings of each fighter and the [[Match timer|time]] remaining.

The other transformations, however, are all completely new and have more type-related features that affect gameplay. Like in Pokémon Stadium, they appear in no specific order and it is even possible for the stadium to change into the same type twice in a row. Like its predecessor, it always begins on the standard arena and transforms and has to revert back to its normal state before transforming again. Several Pokémon appear in the background during the various phases, with no actual effect on the battle.

[[File:Brawl-PokemonStadium2-Electric.png|thumb|left|The Electric version.]]
The '''{{iw|bulbapedia|Electric|type}}''' version features two slightly raised conveyor belts which occupy the sides of the main platform, both pushing outwards. The center of the main platform is static. There are three [[soft platform]]s in varying locations: two, one above the other, are over the middle of the stage, while the third can be over either conveyor belt.

===Flying Version===
[[File:Pokémon Stadium 2 4.jpg|thumb|left|The Flying version.]]
[[File:Pokémon Stadium 2 4.jpg|thumb|left|The Flying version.]]
The '''{{iw|bulbapedia|Flying|type}}''' version features fans in the ground which create an updraft and a slightly raised floor. In ''Brawl'' and ''Smash 4'', this has a similar effect to the "light" [[Special Smash]] setting, reducing the fall speed and gravity of all fighters, and thus allowing them to jump higher and stay in the air longer. Characters flung upward have a much higher chance of being [[Star KO]]'ed. In ''Ultimate'', the form instead uses a weak upwards [[wind]] zone, which covers the area directly above the main platform, rather than the entire screen being affected, and in some circumstances the wind can cause fighters to float upwards rather than fall downwards. The strength of the wind is equivalent to a wind strength of 22.5 on [[Stage Builder]] (0.45 units per frame).
The '''{{iw|bulbapedia|Flying|type}}''' version features fans in the ground which create an updraft, severely lowering the [[gravity]]: all characters' jumping abilities are enhanced and their falling time is increased. Characters flung upward have a much higher chance of being [[Star KO]]'ed. The updraft only extends above the platform. No other platforms are present, giving the stage a {{SSBB|Final Destination}} style layout. The floor is also slightly raised. In ''[[SSBU]]'', there is also a small amount of upwards [[wind]].


A {{pkmn|Drifloon}}, a {{pkmn|Hoppip}}, and a {{pkmn|Skarmory}} fly about in the background.

In the '''{{iw|bulbapedia|Ground|type}}''' version the layout changes to a large solid mound of dirt on the left and a hut built into a tall rock on the right. The hut provides two platforms, the lower one being longer and curved, and the higher one being short and flat. No physics alterations are added.

===Ω forms and Battlefield form===
===Ω forms and Battlefield form===
In ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'', the [[Ω form]] only features the basic version of the stage, with the floating platforms removed but the pillar at the bottom still present. The jumbotron doesn't display any stats and will only show the battle in progress without zooming into any of the characters (except in [[8-Player Smash]], where the screen will be entirely blank). The stage also does not change.

In ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', the main platform of the Ω form and [[Battlefield form]] is identical to ''SSB4''{{'}}s Ω form; however, it is resized and reshaped to match {{SSBU|Final Destination}} and {{SSBU|Battlefield}}, respectively. The three [[soft platform]]s of the Battlefield form are based on the ones in the normal form. The jumbotron only displays the current stage, the current leader, and will focus on one of the fighters. Each  segment will be displayed for five seconds before blanking out for one second and then showing either the same or a different segment.

Like its [[Pokémon Stadium|predecessor]], this stage seems to be based on the arenas from the ''[[bulbapedia:Pokémon Stadium series|Pokémon Stadium]]'' series. Its name could be a reference to the game ''Pokémon Stadium 2'' (either [[bulbapedia:Pokémon Stadium (English)|Japanese]] or [[bulbapedia:Pokémon Stadium 2|international]]) for the [[Nintendo 64]].

The electric transformation's mechanical appearance could be a reference to the recurring {{iw|bulbapedia|Power Plant}} setting in the series, where [[Magnemite]], {{pkmn|Magneton}} and {{pkmn|Electabuzz}} (the previous forms of Magnezone and Electivire) can be often encountered.

===''Smash 4''===
===''SSB4''===
Pokémon Stadium 2's transformations are still seen as disruptive as they were in ''Brawl'', though due to the competitive community in ''Smash 4'' becoming a lot more conservative with stage legality, it never saw real use as a legal stage nor contentious debate about it anywhere unlike it did in ''Brawl''.
Pokémon Stadium 2's physics changes have been seen as detrimental to the flow of the match and the stage is banned in ''Smash 4''.


===''Ultimate''===
===''Ultimate''===
Pokémon Stadium 2 is a starter stage in ''Ultimate''  tournaments, though only when deactivating stage hazards since doing so disables the stage's transformations. In some tournaments, it is banned in favor of its predecessor [[Pokémon Stadium]], but in most tournaments, it is the main stage top players pick, similar to [[Smashville]] in ''Super Smash Bros Brawl'' and ''Super Smash Bros 4''.

[[Nikki]] cannot be summoned at all on this stage likely due to the dark background obscuring her drawings. Additionally, [[Marshadow]] can only be summoned here on the stage's Battlefield and Omega forms.
