Comment on Day 594 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing

I play my emerald on my 3ds using an injected Virtual Console game installed via CIA (or FBI, 😂 often confuse the two), I think it is .cia file installed via FBI App.

Additionally to that, I use PKSM App on my 3ds in order to enable events and transfer Pokemon from game to game (like Pokemon bank)

Like this, I have all Pokemon games installed from blue/red to UltraSun/UltraMoon and can convert Pokemon up and down

Sheeeiiiit I’ve never heard of PKSM, thank you! I am installing that immediately.

My plan is to move my Retro Arch save over to 3DS for PKSM (it’s a godsend for event Pokemon). After that I’ll move them to bank with ORAS or something, and hold them there until I get all the Pokédex entries for the generations prior to Gen 7. then shift them all over (to avoid being tied to a subscription). Then I’ll just set whatever I’m not attached to free.

I might try installing all of them like you do. My 3DS is in rough shape so I don’t use it often (Nintendo really dropped the ball on the New 3DS XL’s outer shell, mine started peeling so easily) but I might refurbish it to play all the games. Having them all be portable would be nice.

  Ooh this reminds me of getting almost every pokemon, one from each family, just had a little level grinding and breeding to do, all on AS, before my 3DS died and I lost all of it due to Nintendo’s bonkers save protections. I had the SD card for the longest time. Haven’t made a catch em all attempt since.

    Nintendo’s save protection drives me crazy. I remember back in the day my SD card had some sort of issue and went read only. I had copied just the saves as a backup before it went bad though. So I thought “well. I can just drag and drop them into the save folder, right?”. Apparently not because the system reported them as corrupted

    I have 3 attempts running parallel 😇
    
    GBA Universe -> all GBA cartages and a gamecube with pokemon box (about 80% missing event Pokemon, but I plan to use the recreated gba event distribution roms which I save on a bootleg gba cartige to use via game link cable)
    
    3ds Universe -> all Pokemon digital on 3ds with PLSM for storage and events (about 10% as this is most recent setup and I have limited time as an adult
    
    switch universe -> my relative big collection on Pokemon home, where I uploaded anything that was on bank prior my 3ds/switch split, is now the storage my son uses, who has the goal to complete the shield pokedex. I think we are on something like 70% on the home pokedex.
