This is why some tournaments use stages that are banned in others. When the losing player is choosing a counterpick stage, the winning player is typically allowed to ban two stages they have not counterpicked to or won on in the set. The list compiled below is an estimate based off of tournaments up to {{Trn|Ultimate Nimbus}}. While [[Small Battlefield]] has not seen much tournament play due to the lack of offline tournaments since its introduction, the stage is considered legal at the moment and may be used as a substitute for either Pokémon Stadium. The legality of [[Minecraft World]] is debated, due to the ability to choose specific forms, however the lack of offline tournaments since its introduction have inhibited the discussion to a degree. [[Northern Cave]] and [[Hollow Bastion]] are other recently released stages that have been considered as potential replacements to Kalos Pokémon League and Smashville, respectively. | ||

Most [[Battlefield form|Battlefield]] and [[Ω form|Ω]] forms are typically allowed, but there are several that are explicitly banned for one reason or another. Stages that only have two dimensions cause significant differences during gameplay due to manipulating the Z-axis, and as such are always banned. Stages that conceal the ground are banned due to the unfair advantage they provide to characters that lay traps on the stage, such as Snake, Isabelle and Steve | Most [[Battlefield form|Battlefield]] and [[Ω form|Ω]] forms are typically allowed, but there are several that are explicitly banned for one reason or another.
