==Compatibility==
When [[Generation III]] was released, many expected a third (fourth in Japan) Stadium game to surface, complete with a [[Hoenn]] Gym Leader Castle. Instead two RPGs were released, [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and {{Pokémon XD}}, and a separate storage system, {{g|Box Ruby & Sapphire}}. In the most basic sense, the Stadium series had ended. However, the [[Generation IV]] game [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]] brings back many of the features of the Stadium series, such as [[Little Cup]], the division to rounds and prize Pokémon, but there is neither a [[Sinnoh]] Gym Leader Castle, a storage system, nor a mini-game mode.
