Pocket Monsters Stadium was heavily influenced by the early competitive Pokémon scene and Nintendo Cup '97, the first Pokémon tournament officially hosted by Nintendo. Most of the 40 playable Pokémon in the game were chosen based on their presence in official tournaments, with a few added to add type variety. Furthermore, the NPC trainers of the in-game tournaments use the names and teams of real-life competitors at that time.
