You can enter Main Street Colosseum and Gateway Colosseum right away in Pokemon Battle Revolution. Both are unlocked by default [\[1\]](https://pokemon.fandom.com/wiki/Gateway%5FColosseum?ref=idleweekend.net), so you can start battling in them as soon as you begin the game.

The other Colosseums open as you win matches. You do not need to buy anything or enter codes to reach them. Keep playing and winning, and the next ones will appear on their own.

This article walks through which Colosseums are open from the start and how the rest of them open, so you know where to focus next.

**Key takeaways**

- Main Street and Gateway Colosseums are open from the beginning.
- The remaining Colosseums unlock as you win matches.
- No purchases or codes are needed.

## What do the two starting Colosseums give you?

Gateway Colosseum is open from the start, because it is unlocked by default along with Main Street Colosseum [\[1\]](https://pokemon.fandom.com/wiki/Gateway%5FColosseum?ref=idleweekend.net). You do not need to earn it first, so you can enter it as soon as you begin playing.

The Colosseum Leader there is Joe [\[1\]](https://pokemon.fandom.com/wiki/Gateway%5FColosseum?ref=idleweekend.net). When you look at the Colosseum list, his name is the one tied to Gateway.

Gateway is optional in the first game [\[2\]](https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Gateway%5FColosseum?ref=idleweekend.net). Its first battle is not a required step, so you are not stuck if it does not appeal to you.

For example, if Main Street already gives you enough matches to keep busy, you can leave Gateway for later. Come back to it whenever you want more practice or a change of pace. Either way, it does not block your progress through the rest of the game.

## How do you unlock the next Colosseums?

Winning your first battle at Gateway Colosseum starts the chain of unlocks, and the Waterfall Colosseum is the first new one to open. After that, you keep winning and let the game open each Colosseum in turn. Each step below builds on the one before it. For the next step, see [Pokemon Battle Revolution Tips for Beginners](https://idleweekend.net/pokemon-battle-revolution-tips-for-beginners/).

1. **Enter Gateway Colosseum and win its first battle.** That single win is what starts the unlocks, so there is no need to grind matches first. Head straight into your first fight there.
2. **Keep winning matches until the next Colosseum opens.** Each win brings you closer to the next unlock. If nothing new has appeared yet, keep fighting at Gateway instead of wandering off.
3. **Enter the Waterfall Colosseum.** It unlocks right after you clear the first battle at Gateway [\[2\]](https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Gateway%5FColosseum?ref=idleweekend.net). Once that win is in, head there as your next stop.
4. **Continue through the remaining Colosseums in the order the game opens them.** Take each new one as it appears and win its battles to reveal the next. Following the game's order means you never have to guess which Colosseum comes next.

## Do replays and special unlocks help you progress?

Replaying Gateway can earn you more rental passes, and beating Stargazer changes some Colosseums. Neither is a shortcut, but both are worth knowing as you go.

### Replaying Gateway for rental passes

A forum player suggests beating Gateway Colosseum a couple more times, since there should be more rental passes to unlock there [\[3\]](https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/934033-pokemon-battle-revolution/53337376?ref=idleweekend.net). If you are short on passes for a Pokemon you want, a rematch at Gateway is an easy place to try first. Each win counts, so you do not need to change how you battle.

### What Stargazer changes

Once you beat the Stargazer Colosseum for the first time, some Colosseums change [\[4\]](https://www.psypokes.com/battlerev/colosseum.php?ref=idleweekend.net). The changes are specific to each Colosseum, so a Colosseum you already visited may look or play differently afterward. Stargazer is the point where you should start paying closer attention to what the game offers.

### Check the list after each win

After every win, open the Colosseum list and look for anything new. This is the quickest way to catch a rental pass reward or a Stargazer change as it happens. If you skip this step, you may not notice that a Colosseum has changed until much later.

## Where should you go next?

The one thing to remember is that you can start playing right away. Main Street and Gateway are both unlocked from the beginning [\[1\]](https://pokemon.fandom.com/wiki/Gateway%5FColosseum?ref=idleweekend.net), so your first matches can happen at either one. Every other Colosseum depends on the wins you pile up, so each match counts.

Keep winning, and replay Gateway if you run low on rental passes. A forum player reports that you should try beating Gateway a couple more times, since more rental passes can unlock there [\[3\]](https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/934033-pokemon-battle-revolution/53337376?ref=idleweekend.net). Don't stop at Stargazer either, because beating it for the first time changes some Colosseums [\[4\]](https://www.psypokes.com/battlerev/colosseum.php?ref=idleweekend.net). Your next step is simple: head to Main Street Colosseum and win your first match.
