Hacking Can all R4 cards backup GBA files?

[AbsoluteZero77]

I wanted to backup my Pokemon Emerald save file so I can find out which tiles have Feebas, but I need to backup my save file from my cartridge. I found a $13 R4 card on eBay and it doesn't go into specific features.

I've never actually heard of people using R4 cards to interact with slot-2 (the GBA slot) before, but that doesn't mean it's impossible. Do you know what R4 model it is?

Do you know what R4 model it is?

Not exactly sure, all I have is this eBay listing to go off of. Unfortunately I can't post links yet but the name is "R4 R4i SDHC Dual Core Memory Adapter Card 2020 for DS 2DS 3DS DSi XL Lite".

Is there a picture of the card? If so, can you post images here (not sure if the link restriction applies to embedding images), or tell me what it says on the label?

I remember a ds homebrew (but not his name srry) i used years ago, to backup/restore pokemon gba saves from my ds lite

Rudolph's GBA Backup Tool and pokedoc's savegame-manager should both be able to backup and restore GBA saves from any DS flashcard with DLDI (basically all of them).
