Pokemon Stadium 2 (Japan) cheats for the Nintendo 64

Alternate Pokémon colors

Pokémon that you upload from the Game Boy version can have alternate colors. Giving your Pokémon various nicknames will change their colors. Switch syllables, such as calling a "Mewtwo" to "Twomew" (blue color). Separate the syllables with a hyphen, such as "Mewtwo" to "Mew-two". Also try naming the Pokémon in all lower-case characters. To find out more methods, note the color of the opposing Pokémon and look at their nicknames. Naming a Pokémon after an attack will change its color. Note: This does not work for some attacks, and some Pokémon either will not change color or will do so very slightly. This is not limited to attacks that the Pokémon know or can learn. Some examples include:

Mew in Prime Cup

This trick requires a Game Boy Game Shark and Pokémon Yellow. First start the game and enable the Game Shark code to catch Mew. Put it first in your line-up, then save the game. Go to the Game Shark screen and enable the code for the first Pokémon in your line-up to be any desired Pokémon. Check your stats and it should display your selected Pokémon's picture, but with Mew's name and information. Save the game. Place the game in the transfer pak and go to the Pokémon Stadium building. When prompted to select Pokémon, choose the one that was Mew. When you start the match, the Pokémon will be Mew.

Surfing Pikachu

Successfully complete the game to unlock Surf for Pikachu. To teach your Pikachu Surf, unlock Round 2. Then, get up to the Masterball setting on either the Poké Cup or Prime Cup (in Round 2). Complete the Masterball setting with Pikachu as one of your active Pokémon each round (he must be one of the three you choose to battle with). If you lose, you cannot continue (it must be a pure win and the Pikachu may not be part of a registered team or a "Rental"). If you succeed, the game will congratulate you and ask if you would like to replace one of Pikachu's moves with Surf. Select "Yes", then choose the move to be forgotten. The Pikachu will now pull out a surfboard and ride the wave whenever Surf is used.

Unlimited number of same Pokémon

Note: This trick requires the Mega Memory Card from InterAct. Save your file on the Mega Memory Card. Go to the Pokémon Lab and put the Pokémon to be duplicated in a 64 Box. Reload your game on the Mega Memory Card and receive your Pokémon in the 64 Box. Repeat as many times as desired to create an unlimited number of the same Pokémon.

Trade without a second transfer pak

Put a box on the game, then put the Pokémon from a different game or the same one in the box. Then, go back to the lab and put the box back on the game that you are trading to, go to the box, and withdraw the Pokémon when you want or need it. Note: This also works with items.
