>>26635120In Pokemon Stadium, you and a friend could get drunk and fight each-other with rentals. I knew several people who played and enjoyed the shit out of that game without ever uploading their mons.
Trying the same for Revolution was pain. Battle Revolution was only an extension to hardcore pokemon fans. Casuals couldn't raise pokemon strong enough to participate effectively. This was compounded by the difficulty jump of later stadiums. There wasn't much middle-ground, either it was an OHKO fest versus NFE's, or struggling against fully evolved, perfectly raised mons with actual movesets and strategies.
Battle Revolution was not a game friendly to casuals, and suffered for that.
No Origin Form Giratina was inexcusable as well.
