The Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack members can now access Pokémon Trading Card Game and Pokémon Stadium 2, according to a recent Pokémon Direct announcement.

The Pokémon Trading Card Game, originally launched on Game Boy Color in 1998, is an adaptation of the table-top version of the game, featuring the first three sets of cards.

On the other hand, Pokémon Stadium 2 was released on the Nintendo 64 two years later, including the 251 Pokémon from the first two generations. The original game allowed players to pit their Pokémon from Pokémon Red/Blue and Pokémon Gold/Silver against each other in 3D. However, in this Nintendo Switch port, it's not possible to transfer your Pokémon, and you're limited to using the standard Pokémon in the game with predetermined attacks.
