While the stage is not specifically based on anything from the ''{{uv|Pokémon}}'' video game series, it may be a general representation of a {{s|bulbapedia|Gym}}. A possible specific origin could be the ''[[bulbapedia:Pokémon Stadium series|Pokémon Stadium]]'' games, from which the stage's name possibly comes from and whose arenas in-game feature a [[Poké Ball]] logo in the middle, a crowd watching the battle and, in the case of Gym Leader battles, type-related aesthetics. However, the arenas in the ''Pokémon Stadium'' games, including the type-themed ones, do not affect the battles in any way. Despite sharing its name with the game ''{{iw|bulbapedia|Pokémon Stadium|English}}'', the stage features no direct references to it or [[bulbapedia:Pokémon Stadium 2|its sequel]].

Another possible source is the ''{{iw|bulbapedia|Pokémon|anime}}'' anime, in which, during tournament battles, the arena changes its terrain frequently to hinder or help either Pokémon. This was seen at least in the preliminary rounds of the {{s|bulbapedia|Indigo League}}, during which each of {{s|bulbapedia|Ash Ketchum}}'s four initial battles was in a different battlefield representing a specific elemental type.
