Fun fact: Golem is the only Pokémon other than Mew that players are guaranteed to never see In Gen I without a real life trade or glitches. There are several Pokémon that are conditional, like Venusaur isn't used by anyone other than you or your rival, so if you won't see it if you choose Charmander. You won't see the evolution of the fossil you didn't choose. You won't see Electabuzz if you chose Green or Magmar if you chose Red.

>>56384974Our Stadium is Stadium 2 in Japan, and our Stadium 2 is Stadium Gold and Silver in Japan. Well, Stadium Gold/Silver/Crystal Version. The first Stadium in Japanese (which some people nonsensically call Stadium Zero like how people call MOTHER "Earthbound Zero") was based around a 3D battle simulator made for Japanese tournaments, but it only had 42 usable Pokémon. There was demand for it, so Nintendo released it as a game, and the characters you battle are based on real Japanese players. There are some things it has that the later games don't have, like a 3D map of Kanto.
