These stages are available all rounds but are the only ones available for round 1

-Pokemon Stadium (Doubles only)
Counterpick:
These stages are available only after round 1 is complete

If both players agree you can play on any stage you like. Just don't be salty if you lose on Poke Floats and you agreed to it.
Pokken Tournament Ruleset
We use a slightly altered Evo rule set for Pokken, along with a gentelemen's rule to set stage selection to Random if you choose. You can see the EVO ruleset HERE.
-Game version: US Nintendo WiiU
-Game Settings: LAN Mode, Skill=Off, 2/3 Rounds, 2/3 Games
-Stage select set to Stadium
-Loser of last match may change fighter Pokemon, the winner is character locked.
-Both players may change assist sets and cheer type between matches if they win or lose.
-Game version: US Nintendo WiiU
-Game Settings: LAN Mode, Skill=Off, 2/3 Rounds, 2/3 Games
-Stage select set to Stadium
If both players agree you can play with random stage selection on but if Dark Colosseum is chosen they must back out and restart on a different stage. Just don't be salty if you lose on Magikarp Festival vs a rush-down character and you agreed to it.
-Both players may change assist sets and cheer type between matches if they win or lose.
