Gaming Japanese Pokemon games

[cubone12]

Hi, you see I wanna play Pokemon Fire Red and Pokemon Green, but the jap-version on my european GBA SP.
But I don not know if it will work to play them on it, and even if it works will I be able to trade with my european games?
Also I would like to know where I can buy them.
Thx cubone12

Gameboy games aren't region locked, so you can play Japanese games in European GBA.

and even if it works will I be able to trade with my european games? That won't work.
Also I would like to know where I can buy them. Ebay.
Thx cubone12

Also, if you have a Japanese GBA version and you want to import to Pal Park in DPPtHGSS, you will have to get a Japanese version of the DS game first.

There is no reason for not being able to trade between the Japanese version and the European version.

Why won´t I be able to trade?

Trading between Japanese and International versions of 3rd generation games should work without issue. From Bulbapedia: "Link trades and battles are made possible between Japanese and international releases due to the use of a worldwide character set. Due to the fact that online trading was introduced only in Generation IV, however, most are not made aware of this."

I got both a Japanese LeafGreen and an English FireRed; I should know.

I was referring to importing from the GBA games to the DS games via Pal Park. :l
