What is the difference between VGC and Battle Stadium?
May. 16, 2022What is the difference between VGC and Battle Stadium?
I have read various sources and commenters state that it is Singles-vs-Doubles, or Console-vs-Simulator, or Ladder-vs-Tournament, and in either direction too. I can’t pin down a good/authoritative answer, and I’d like some help finding definitive reference(s) as to what the difference both is and isn’t.
