Hacking Pokemon GBA Roms and R4

[tehxlizardxking]

I've recently played through Pokemon Fire Red in ROM form, and I want to import them into either my Pokemon Pearl cart, or my Pokemon Diamond rom that's on my R4.

So my question is, what do I have to buy/do to import my pokemon?

I think you'd need a Slot-2 Flashcard

That's what I figured, do you know what I'd have to do to get it working? It seems like I'd need to do soemthing special since I'd be running in DS Mode playing Pearl, and then still needing the rom loaded to slot 2.

I'm not sure about this, but if you get an EZ-Flash 3-in-1 card and copy Fire Red into the NOR RAM, it might work. But I don't know if an emulator's SAV file would work with a GBA Loader.

Oh well, I'll start over then, No big deal, I just want to be able to do it. Thanks for the help

Well at least with Megaman ZX, the link Ez 3 in 1 gba game (Megaman Zero 3 and 4) Slot1 Card works fine, even if the gba rom is in PSRAM.

You will need, however, to patch the DP ROM if you're using the EZ Flash 3-in-1. If not patched, DP will recognize the game in the slot-2 (thus being able to activate the "GBA insertion pokémons" event), but you won't be able to transfer pokémons, because DP will not find any save for the GBA game. Search the "poképatch" in GBATemp's download database.
Once you're done with the EZ Flash 3-in-1 ROM, replace the patched DP with the "clean" copy. The patched copy doesn't work with original Pokémon carts... well, assuming you have one.

This may sound dumb, but how do you load the game into the PSRAM and then load an NDS game?

Well, I use Rudolph 1.9d Exp Pack Tool. Load game pressing select, it will load to PSRAM and soft reset.
