The stage is usually banned, as it has too many similarities to Pokémon Stadium 2 when hazards are turned off. Some regions, however, have Pokémon Stadium as a legal starter over Pokémon Stadium 2, most notably Chicago and, at one point, [[Maryland/Virginia]]. This is mainly due to some players believing the stage is a more reasonable size when compared to Pokémon Stadium 2.
The stage is usually banned, as it has too many similarities to Pokémon Stadium 2 when hazards are turned off. Some regions, however, have Pokémon Stadium as a legal starter over Pokémon Stadium 2, most notably Chicago and, at one point, [[Maryland/Virginia]]. This is mainly due to some players believing the stage is a more reasonable size when compared to Pokémon Stadium 2. Opponents of this stage, on the other hand, cite several inconsistencies that make the stage more "janky" and therefore ill-suited for competitive play compared to its ''Brawl'' successor; most notably, the stage suffers from bugs that can cause players to clip inside the main platform of the stage, and prior to version {{SSBU|12.0.0}}, the right platform featured an invisible slant that made it impossible to perform [[lock]]s over it. The stage's camera also causes the visibility of the edges to be obstructed.
With the release of [[Small Battlefield]], Pokémon Stadium generally fell even more out of favor, as Small Battlefield could provide a significantly more compact alternative to Pokémon Stadium 2, and the need of a middle ground was not felt much by most of the community. As a result of all these factors, Pokémon Stadium is currently banned in almost every region worldwide.
