I select Pokemon Emerald or Fire Red in the GBA slot and start Pokemon Platinum but there doesn't seem to be an option to import pokemon. I am using actual save file and not savestate. Tried load and reset, still cannot import.

Am I doing it wrongly or the GBA slot is not fully functional yet ? (svn2012)

    you must accompany the pokemon_rom.gba with a file in the same directory named exactly this: pokemon_rom.sav

    please ensure that you have done this

    (the dialog box says that you should do it)

    also it should be functional but it has only been tested on megaman battle network

    My gba rom and save files are stored in the same directory as the platinum rom and save file as follow :
    3541 - Pokemon Platinum (USA).nds
    3541 - Pokemon Platinum (USA).sav
    1986 - Pokemon - Emerald Version (USA, Europe).gba
    1986 - Pokemon - Emerald Version (USA, Europe).sav
    1695 - Pokemon - Fire Red Version (USA, Europe) (Rev A).gba
    1695 - Pokemon - Fire Red Version (USA, Europe) (Rev A).sav
    There is no option to migrate pokemon from Kanto or Hoenn from my gba.

    Below is the output when I start the Pokemon Platinum with Emerald in the GBA Slot. Also, I attached the main menu which does not have the option to migrate(transfer) pokemon from the gba game. I have already defeated the Elite 4 and have National Pokedex and been to PAL PARK. I should have met all the requirement. I am able to go underground without installing winpcap and tested with opengl and the rasterizer with same result.

    can you post the .sav files from your emerald and diamond? this is a bit hard for me to debug since I don't know how exactly this is supposed to work. Where would the option be squeezed into that menu?

    zeromus,

    I have attached savefiles for Platinum, FireRed and Emerald for your investigation. The migrate(transfer) pokemon option should be on the intro menu if it is working.

    can I please get some assistance with my game as well? I am having the exact same problem. I completed pokemon soul silver, beat the elite 4, got the national dex, and am currently saved infront of Palpark. I also beat pokemon emerald. If you could provide me with details for troubleshooting at least I would be very grateful!

    How do I open up the section in Pokemon white that has the bag, save section and that stuff in? I've set the start key and tried that and tried the select key but nothing works

      Who told you to press the start and select keys? Try pressing other keys. There are a total of eight on the NDS

              Entonces has emparejado el juego/región/versión/hack incorrecto de NDS y GBA.
