Pocket Monsters' Stadium English translation
ポケモンスタジアム · Pocket Monsters Stadium
Patch Clan's English patch for the Japan-only first Pokémon Stadium on the N64 translates every species, move, Pokédex entry and menu, and redraws the 3D battle lettering.
What's translated
All the text is in English: the 151 species, moves, items, Pokédex entries, menus, battle messages, cup rules and the built-in Game Boy player. The 3D round banners, the CHAMPION! screen, the WIN and LOSE results and the Pokédex cards were redrawn in English, and battle messages were written to fit the game's 19-letter box. The Game Boy player also accepts fan-translated Japanese Red, Green, Blue and Yellow cartridges and shows their nicknames in Latin letters.
Fixes and options
The main patch also fixes two cartridge bugs: the 1-in-256 miss on moves with 100% accuracy and the type chart, which now matches Gold and Silver. For competitive players there's a translation-only patch that leaves the original mechanics alone. Version 1.1 switches to the narrower lettering of the Western Pokémon Stadium so long move names fit in full; a few Pokémon names on the five-cell name plates are still shortened.
Playing it
Apply the patch to your own copy of the Japanese cartridge, following the instructions on Patch Clan's page for the game, which also documents the technical work behind it.
