Ok, guys I've found this guide:
  1. Start Gold/Silver (you don’t actually need to play, just launch it and let it create the sav.dat)
  2. Export the save as a reference file in JKSM.
  3. Copy the save over to your PC, it is located in /JKSM/Saves/Game_Name/Backup_Name
  4. Open your favorite Hex editor, mine is HxD
  5. Make a copy of your emulator save in case something goes wrong.
  6. Open both your reference sav.dat and your emulator save (most likely romname.sav). You will see that the 3DS file is smaller, mine ending at hex line 00008000 while the emulator save is longer. Mine went to hex line 00008020.
  7. Delete the extra lines in the emulator save so it matches the reference sav.dat (most likely everything above the 00008000 line)
  8. Make a folder called Import, copy your modified emulator save into it.
  9. Rename it to sav.dat
  10. Copy the folder into the /JKSM/Saves/Game_Name/ Directory on the 3DS
  11. Import it in JKSM
  12. Start Gold/Silver and enjoy your save
I did it after using the gameshark codes in a emulator, and it worked:

I only needed to reset the RTC to the correct hour and day.
Thanks for your interest, and I hope some of you will find this guide helpful to, bye.
UPDATE!!
I don't know if that is the case but after using the "All Room Decorators" code, the slide puzzles at the Ruins of Alph got solved, but without unlocking any Unown forms.
So here's what I did, to fix it:
use this gameshark code after the "All Room Decorators" code
Reset the Unown puzzles (Turns the platforms by the puzzles back on so you can redo them).
Gold, Silver
01000BD8
Crystal (if someone needs it too)
9100C6DA
After that fallow the guide, and redo any puzzles you already did.
I'll keep updating if something else went wrong, after using the "All Room Decorators" code, bye.

    One of the keyshops is 95% off at the moment (probably humble bundle keys)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    And a small percentage of keys bought with a stolen credit card.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    You never know if the key works or not, they don't provide a guarantee.
  • linuxares @ linuxares:
    Sure is... and poor devs get hit with the charge backs

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Exactly.
  • linuxares @ linuxares:
    Thor from "Pirate Software" said its just better to pirate the game than buy from a keyshop if you care about the devs
    +1
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    devs don't get hit with the chargebacks, the keys are free to generate
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    at least on steam
  • linuxares @ linuxares:
    Except he said the DEVS get hits with the chargeback cost
  • linuxares @ linuxares:
    since the key gets bought with a stolen credit card
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    there's nothing to charge back because the keys don't cost them money to generate in the first place
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    If the game has a crack sure
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Most these crack sites have dead links anymore or the crack don't even work
  • linuxares @ linuxares:
    @The Real Jdbye What don't you get? If someone use a stolen creditcard. Then sell said key on G2A. If I the dev sold the game key, I will get the charge back cost. That's how it works, it doesn't matter if I generate 300 keys if 300 of them are bought with stolen credit cards. I never said it was on Steam, but its the dev that gets hit. There is a ton of stories out there if you google it.
