To be totally honest, a lot of the things that were in Stadium have since been done in the handheld games.
>There are now full 3D battles
>Minigames across the franchise, though they all typically served an in-game purpose
>Pokémon World Tournament had various Gym Leaders with competitive teams
>Tons of multiplayer options as it is
>Battle Tower, Battle Frontier, Battle Subway, Battle Maison, etc.
>Tons of official music remixes over the years
I still think it would be nice to have a new one though. The games are getting pretty cluttered with all the stuff that has to be included in every new game to keep features from dying. An anon made a good point about this a couple weeks ago. But I think that a new arena battler should be something that makes the handheld games better, like being able to get special furniture for your room through Stadium GSC's Mystery Gift.
Let's say they made Pokémon StadiuM for Sun and Moon (get it?).
>Bring in Latias/Latios to get the Soul Dew
>Bring in Groudon/Kyogre to get the Red Orb/Blue Orb
>Bring in Deoxys to get a (hypothetical) Meteorite-N, Meteorite-A, Meteorite-D, and Meteorite-S
>Bring in Dialga/Palkia/Giratina to get the Adamant/Lustrous/Griseous Orbs
>Bring in Shaymin to get the Gracidea
>Bring in Arceus to get access to all the Plates at the in-game museum
>Bring in Victini to get the option to tutor it V-create
>Bring in Kyurem to get the Gene Splicer
>Bring in Genesect to get the Burn/Douse/Shock/Chill Drives
>Bring in Hoopa to get the Prison Bottle
>Bring in any Pokémon that Mega Evolves to get the option to buy their Mega Stone at a store
Even have Contests be in it since they'll never be relevant in the handheld games again. I wouldn't mind it if this game was just "HD battler with all the extra stuff added in".
