Unlock Surfing Pikachu, Mew, alternate colors, and more with these Pokémon Stadium codes and secrets.
Amnesia Psyduck:
Get all 151 Pokémon in the Hall of Fame.
Surfing Pikachu:
Successfully complete the game to unlock Surf for Pikachu. To teach your Pikachu Surf, unlock Round 2. Then, get up to the Masterball setting on either the Poké Cup or Prime Cup (in Round 2). Complete the Masterball setting using Pikachu as one of your active Pokémon each round (he must be one of the three you choose to battle with). The Pikachu may not be part of a registered team or a Rental. If you succeed, the game congratulates you and asks if you would like to replace one of Pikachu's moves with Surf. Select "Yes", and select the move to be forgotten. The Pikachu will now pull out a surfboard and ride the wave whenever Surf is used. Note: Surfing Pikachu is not in the Japanese version of the game.
Talking Pikachu:
Upload Pikachu from the Yellow version of the game to Pokémon Stadium. When battling, Pikachu will say "Pike Pika" and have different motions for certain moves. Note: You must go to battle for this to work. Do not register Pikachu. If a Pikachu is uploaded from Pokémon Red or Blue or is a Rental, it will only make its basic growl, but look more aggressive.
Alternate Pokémon colors:
Pokémon that you upload from the Game Boy version can have alternate colors. Giving your Pokémon various nicknames will change its colors. Switch syllables, such as calling a Mewtwo to Twomew (blue color). Separate the syllables with a hyphen, such as Mewtwo to Mew-two. Also try naming the Pokémon in all lower-case characters. To find out more methods, note the color of the opposing Pokémon and look at their nicknames.
Alternate title screen:
Successfully complete Gym Leader Castle and Stadium modes. Pikachu, Blastoise, Charizard, Venusaur and Mewtwo will now appear on the title screen.
Get Pokémon for Game Boy game:
Complete one of the Gym Leader Castles of the Elite Four or your rival to get one of the following random Pokémon that can be transferred back to your Game Boy Pokémon game: Eevee, Hitmonlee, Hitmonchan, Squirtle, Charmander, Bulbasaur, Omanyte, Kabuto.
Start with all three beginning Pokémon:
When you start a new game, you can start with all three beginning Pokémon by starting over and choosing one of them in the Game Boy Pokémon game. Then, capture a Pidgey or Rattata. Save it to the boxes on Pokémon Stadium. Repeat the steps with a different Pokémon until you get all three. You can also save and keep Pokémon from your old game that you still want before starting over.
Get Pokémon presents faster:
Defeat the Gym Leader Castle. Then, when you want to complete it again go to the Gym Leader Castle, go directly to the Elite 4, then defeat your rival.
Round 2:
Successfully complete the game to unlock a much harder version of the Stadium, Gym Leader's Castle, and Mewtwo Battle modes.
Mewtwo Battle:
Complete all Cups in stadium mode, and defeat all opponents in the Gym Leader's Castle. Mewtwo is the last opponent you will face in both Round 1 and Round 2 versions of the game.
Mew:
Mew will become playable, as a "Rental" Pokémon, in the Round 2 version of the game. He can only be played in the Prime Cup tournament, the Gym Leader's Castle, the Free Battle, and the Mewtwo Battle modes.
Mew in Prime Cup:
This trick requires a Game Boy GameShark and Pokémon Yellow. First start the game and enable the GameShark code in to catch Mew. Put it first in your line up, then save the game. Go to the GameShark screen and enable the code for the first Pokémon in your line up to be any desired Pokémon. Check your stats it should display your selected Pokémon's picture but Mew's name and information. Save the game. Place the game in the transfer pak and go to the Pokémon Stadium building. When prompted to select Pokémon, chose the one that was Mew. When you start the match, the Pokémon will be Mew.
Bonus Stickers:
Successfully complete R-1 mode, defeat Mewtwo, and complete R-2 Mode, and defeat Mewtwo again. Enter the gallery screen, then hold L + R and highlight the "Print" option. Keep holding the buttons until "Print" changes to "Bonus" to access sixteen more stickers.
Kids Club Hyper mode:
In one player mode with three CPU controlled opponents, successfully complete "Who's the best?" five consecutive times under the hard difficulty setting within one match. Hyper will be unlocked as a new difficulty setting for CPU controlled players.
Play Pokémon faster:
Complete the entire Poké Cup to get a sticker on Game Boy Tower and Doduo mode. This will allow you play Pokémon on the Nintendo 64 twice as fast. If you beat the Masterball in Prime Cup, a "Superfast" setting will be unlocked in the GB Tower. The title will change to "Dodrio GB Tower". Press C-Left during game play in Pokémon Red, Blue, or Yellow to activate it.
Give Pokémon to another Game Boy pak without getting one back:
Place the desired Pokémon in a separate box from which you have your regular Pokémon. Next, transfer that box to the 64box on the N64. Then shut off the system (if you only have one transfer pack) and insert desired Game Boy pak. If you have two transfer packs, then just switch the Game Boy pak with the one you are going to trade to. Then, transfer the box with the Pokémon in it to the other Game Boy pak and you will have the Pokémon without giving one in return.
Flying Poké Cup roof lights:
Win the Vs. Mewtwo battle to see the credits. When a scene showing the Poké Cup Arena appears, look at the roof lights to see that they are flying.
Ineffective moves:
When battling normal type Pokémon do not use Seismic Toss. It can be a fighting move, but is not very effective. The same happens with the Mega Drain attack when battling some Ground Pokémon in the Poké Cup, Prime Cup and Gym Leader's Castle.
