[@5095smf]

Everything about this is amazing, I can't find words describe how cool it is. Literally everything, it could've been a black screen with code on it, but the people who made it even wrote a little story for it. It's awesome.

[@IAmNotAFunguy]

Just for some information on how this system is able to work: The Gameboy Advance DOES have built-in SRAM that can run software all by itself without the need for a cart installed. Certain games and peripherals made use of this feature such as the Tingle Bottle in "The Legend of Zelda: the Wind Waker" or playing "The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures" where a connected GBA is REQUIRED to use as a controller for that game! This was also used to trade between the Gen 3 handheld games and Colosseum and XD. This ability was also used by the eReader accessory for the Gameboy Advance. In fact, the eReader would load a program into the SRAM and run it from there, not the accessory itself. You could remove the eReader after loading a game or program and it would STILL run from SRAM. The GBA also IS capable of hot-swapping if the program in SRAM is able to access the cart slot. You can interrupt the Gameboy Advance boot by holding down L and R while flipping the power switch on which will make it load from SRAM, not the inserted cartridge. The aforementioned Gamecube games AND the eReader ask you to do this so they can send the data they need to the system and run it from the SRAM. The eReader could send data to another GBA unit via the Link cable and could send data to either the SRAM OR an inserted cartridge. This is how you could add content to games such as the Bonus Levels in the GBA port of Super Mario Bros 3, or apply the Berry Glitch Fix in Ruby & Sapphire with the Glitch Fixer Application that was on the FireRed, LeafGreen, and Emerald carts. Pokémon Gen 3 ALL had eReader Compatibility but the international versions of FireRed, LeafGreen, and Emerald removed it completely. This system is just using the SRAM of the GBA to download code into the Gen 3 games. This was also used in commercial settings to download special events like the Aurora Ticket right into save files.

[@Kali_Krause]

Ooh, that's really interesting! So basically you can use Arbitrary Code Execution without the need for a cartridge?🤔

[@Tiberius22495]

Fun fact the wireless adapter also has a program on it when you boot a GBA up without a game.

[@arokival4674]

Whether or not this is a legitmate way to complete the Pokedex depends on how you feel. For me, it definitely is especially with the work Gears put in to make every Pokemon transferred as legit and legal as possible.

[@anotherthing]

I agree with you. Did you catch the Pokemon legitimately in a game? That would be my only qualification honestly. I have no problem moving that Pokemon around by whatever means I deem fit beyond that. I don't even have a problem if the Pokemon was caught in a legitimate ROM hack either, so long as teh ROM hack isn't just handing out powerful Pokemon for no reason.

[@yevgeniylankin7032]

I also like how the programmer who made this ROM had had all these things come together for the final product, which is almost like it was intended. This is so fucking crazy guys.

[@TylerChamb]

It's like DLC for a read-only GBA cart. Arbitrary code execution is awesome.

[@pokepress]

Just for folks who are curious, there are two problems that made this difficult back in the day: 1. Stats are structured differently between Gen 1-2 and 3+, requiring a conversion. 2. Different communication pin outs/protocols are used in GBC and GBA mode. The most likely way of handling this back in the day would have been via a specialized device that acts as a go-between.

[@AlexsGoogleAccount]

The stats issue is a huge one. in the Virtual Console transfer to Pokemon Bank, they didn't even attempt to transfer the stats. I took it upon myself to figure out the best way to convert stats for Gen 2 Pokemon to Gen 3 while also preserving Hidden Power details and it's pretty complicated. Not something I'd expect a go-between tool to be able to do programmatically.

[@MagentaNimbat]

This is by far one of the coolest things that has come out as of recently. I'm gonna try to do this when I can because dang this is Cool AF

[@stronkknight]

@@chrizzlybear711pkhex

[@DKen2021]

That's something the transfer software already has a function for, it will ask to convert those Pokemon into the legitimate Gen 3 event distributions. You're free to not convert them, but they will be considered illegitimate

[@justinsutter3602]

@@DKen2021 Correct, I made every effort to resurrect the Gen 1 Mew distribution events and bring them forward and it isn't possible. Simply because GF pretends the Mario, Luigi, Ninten, Link, Yoshira, Yoshirb Mews never existed. So if they were aware of this being a thing now they would say "Official Gen 1 Mews simply turn unofficial if taken past Gen 2". Even PKHexed them right into Gen 3 and while it exists in the game, it is treated as illegitimate so that is something that can never be changed. Still this is a massive win for diehard Pokemon fans who have waited a long time for such a tech to exist.

i think the only reason why they opt in to use GBP/GBC link cables instead of a GBA one is because the GBP/GBC can be connected to a GBA and vice versa while a GBA cable can only connect to a GBA.

[@charlessegale6493]

This is AMAZING! *THIS* would've blown my mind if it released back in 2002!

[@Sin_Alder]

5:30 Can't necessarily speak to how it's done, but this sort of ability was actually utilized by quite a few games, it's just that most of them weren't actually games for the Gameboy family of systems. One notable one I remember is Amazing Island, which, if I remember correctly, allowed you to put some sort of card game on your GBA and play it on the go (though you'd lose it if you turned the system off). Presumably the entire thing is just loaded into RAM or some equivalent or something. You could then get home, hook the GBA back up to the gamecube, and get rewards from the card game. That era was truly an era of cool ideas and unbridled experimentation.

[@sworm13]

This is absolutely insane! I was shaking my head i disbelive the entire video

[@antimorph]

That Cynda may not be legal, and may not be able to travel into Pokémon HOME. Anyway, that's something that my inner child never believed to see. Amazing.

[@Sol_Calibre]

I feel this isn't the first time I've seen this type of video but it's always fun to watch.

[@fortello7219]

It would be fun to trade back! Backporting gen 3 pokemon to gen 2 with moves they might not have had back then! (This would require consideration for gen 3 only moves of course. Luckily abilities wouldn't matter, since there arent any in gen 2.)

[@DarkBowser64]

Tradeback is a feature that can be done with Lorenzoone's Gen 1/2 to Gen 3 application, which isn't quite nearly as well-known as this one. It's loaded in a very similar way to this, and you can look it up on YT to see more details on it.

[@portwise23]

Does this now mean that Fissure No Guard Machamp is real??? Previously, Fissure was a TM that could be taught to Machamp in Red and Blue, however by transferring it to Pokemon Home through 3DS poketransporter, it would force Machamp to have it's hidden ability, which is Steadfast. Pokemon can't change to their hidden ability until gen 8 with the introduction of the ability patch, however not until gen 9 are you allowed to revert a hidden ability to a regular ability with the ability patch. Machamp is not allowed in Paldea though, and even if he was, transferring any pokemon into Scarlet and Violet completely resets their moveset to only allow level up moves in, meaning any moves only obtainable from past generations are completely barred. With this transfer method, you can get a Guts Machamp from the transfer instead, which can be changed starting in gen 6 to No Guard. Meaning you can have No Guard Fissure for real in gens 6, 7, and 8... if it gets past the hack checks from nintendo, which might be strict.

[@jessjess8909]

Why do you even ask this question when literally Pokémon from gen 1 and 2 can have 65 000 stat exp (EVs) in every stats which is the best thing ever, this would be the real question if pokemon actually are legit in competitive with those amazing stats or not

[@portwise23]

@@jessjess8909 The answer to that is easy, Stat exp does not transfer as EV's. It *might* transfer as IV's, though I'm pretty sure the transfer tool simply resets stat exp and transfers DVs as IVs, or simply randomizes it all. That's at least how the 3ds software works when transferring from Virtual Console, and given how this is a fan made software made to act and look like it was official, I'd assume they'd probably make the same decisions to*ignore* stat exp

[@OutisGreen]

This is truly glorious for the Champ, he gonna show every pokemon there is why he is the only ones who has the Poke Belt

[@ImmortalAbsol]

You can also use a modded 3DS and a Gameboy to PC save dumper to put your gen 2 save in the Virtual Console version of the game and then use official means to bring it up to Bank and then Home.

[@ImmortalAbsol]

(but that obviously skips several generations so is only useful for getting them to modern games)

[@RetroGamingBacklog]

Fun tidbit. You can "make" a GBC link cable out of 2 GBA link cables. Just plug the 2 purple ends into the other cables purple boxes and it becomes a GBC cable. I can't remember where I read this, but I used it back in the day to play against someone on Super Mario Bros Deluxe.

[@ultimate_pleb]

7:37 the flashcard uses ACE? That's actually really cool

[@zixserro1]

The only thing I'd change, if possible, would be to change the "Fateful Encounter" codes to say what route & region the pokemon come from. That way you could potentially have pokemon in Home that come all the way from Kanto & Johto in these older versions, and they'd possibly say they're from those regions; I'm guessing that if you were to put them into the games as they are, they'd probably say they're from Kanto or Hoenn.

It is possible to transfer your old pokes from RBYGSC into Pokémon Home from the cartridges. But it requires a hacked 3DS, a save file extractor like the Joey JR, and using a tool to adjust the save file to work with the Virtual Console versions of the games. I used that method to get my first ever Mewtwo I caught on Blue version around 25 years ago into Home. But this thing is something else entirely. Super cool!

[@ARKitectGaming]

Dude your a life saver I downloaded this back in beta and transferred my shiny ditto to ruby and it worked … kinda it showed a pic of blue ditto and everything was good it just didn’t show the Pokémon’s number above its pic when you did a summary of the Pokémon in your party. It’s supposed to be in gold but it showed no numbers. I tried for a week to get a shiny egg and today I looked into why it wasn’t working and noticed no number was there then I was scrolling and came across your video and went to download the link and seen it was a different version than mine then I read what was fixed and it says they fixed shinys not transferring properly.

[@thecollectorsinged113]

The killer part of the vid is the cartridge removal, like how?!?!?

[@AlexsGoogleAccount]

I don't know the details of how they pulled it off, but I think when you remove the cartridge, whatever is loaded into RAM is still in RAM. The game crashes when the cartridge is removed as soon as it tries to perform read/write operations on values stored on the cartridge (outside of the console's RAM). If the program wrote everything that it needed to continue working into RAM, then it could be safely removed and continue to work. Then when a new cartridge is inserted, it can perform read/write operations on that cartridge without crashing.

Is it legitimate? Oh hell yes it is. Absolutely in the spirit of the games.

[@CptFreemanC17]

"I don't know how they do that, running fine with no game!" (While typing this, i realized this was already explained by another comment, but i'm half way done so whatever. DUPLICATE INFORMATION AHOY!) It's actually quite simple. GameBoys operate similar to a computer. They have a processor, memory, display, inputs (keyboard vs gamepad), etc. When you start a game (any, not just pokemon), it pulls the game information (characters, music, engine, sprites, etc) into memory. When you play a game, you're playing from memory and not directly from the cartridge. This is what's happening when you get LOADING screens: It's reading from the source device (cart, disc, etc) and loading it into memory. The GB Transporter program, to my understanding, runs ENTIRELY in the gameboy's memory. No loading required aside from initial startup. This is crucial, because A: it lets you swap cartridges out at will, and B: it lets the program talk to the save data of different Pokemon games. Technology is amazing, isn't it?

WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE

[@BurstFlare]

I'm pretty sure the Poke Transporter loads everything into the GBA's internal memory, and as such only needs the cartridge for the initial boot-up. Some GameCube games, including Billy Hatcher, use this principle to temporarily download small GBA games onto a GBA without a game cartridge.

The crazy thing is not the cartridge removal as people are saying, the game is not running on the cartridge, the console reads what it needs and stores it in RAM. The actual crazy thing is the fact that he added an event into the game that was still there after the console was turned off and back on again, meaning everything stored in RAM is gone.

6:50 how do you backup your save files to a pc?

[@martinvargas1346]

You can buy devices to help you rip copies or save files to your computer. I use GBOperator by Epilogue. The GBoperator lets you plug in any GB game and play it on your pc like an emulator. On top of backing up whole games and save files. The company is still working on it. It can also test if your copy is a real or fake. The GB operator feels more legit like I’m not committing piracy since it’s making copies and save files of a game you own not downloaded from the internet. Maybe I haven’t figured it out but you can’t emulate without a physical copy. If you want to do that I recommend an emulator like “MYGBA”. I have all my GB games on a flash drive as a secondary back up. And the mygba emulator incase I ever want to play the games without the gboperator. The copies and saves work seamlessly with the mygba emulator. Remember giving out/selling copies can be seen as piracy. My copies are backups of physical games I own

[@Lloydchristmas09]

Would these be legal for competitive use?

[@AlexsGoogleAccount]

Probably not. The most reliable way for a generated Pokemon to be legal for competitive use is if the program sets their met information to show that they hatched from an Egg. In Gen 3, the Pokemon's Personality Value needs to match its IVs, Nature, and Gender in order to be legal, which is extremely hard for a program to generate. In Gen 3, Nature and IVs of Eggs don't need to match the Personality Values, so it's much easier for a program to match just the Gender. It's been a while since I saw the tool maker's original video, but I don't think they marked the Pokemon as having hatched from Eggs, so none of the Pokemon would be legal.
