You might want to take a look at the emulation section... this is more for help with HGSS/DPPt itself rather than problems arising from using roms of that game. But I imagine the fact they are roms would pose problems even if there are patches for such things. Maybe it only will work for legit gba games or the gba rom does not have the right sort of save file format?

Dongle method?

So I'm replaying platinum for the first time since 2010, and I want a vulpix on my team. I see the only way to get one is via Leaf Green version dongle.
But what I can't find anywhere, is whether or not I can do this BEFORE the elite four?

Hi all, I have looked around to see if I could answer my own questions before posting but no luck, I really want a Darkrai on my Platinum version, I bought Platinum late so I've probably missed out on the Event pass, is there any other way to get one?

^ I was actually wondering the same thing. To my knowledge there is no way unless you use AR to trigger the event or just trade with someone who got one through the event or used the AR to get the event. I hope there is another way since I have been looking for one.

You can use an AR to get to New Moon Island, but you won't find Darkrai there, but you can use the AR to get the Member's Pass. You'll have to look up the code for that yourself.

Thank you for the tip, please forgive my ignorance but I have no idea what a AR code is? I just play the games lol, is there a link or a short explanation you could help me with please.

AR is the common term used for Action Replay, a cheating device (you enter in codes to get what you want in the games, basically). That requires having an AR though and if you're not one for cheating... (heck, I'm not =p).

But besides from cheating for the Pokemon or the event item that triggers it the only current way to get one is to trade for it, which can be done on the Trade Corner section we have here.

I made a post earlier about finding shelgon, do you HAVE to wait 70 days or can you just put 70 days ahead in your calender? Ds lite.

If you mean set the calender 80 days forward, no. The game sees through that. there is another way; you could set the clock to 11:59; then wait a minute till the next day. that counts. but that would take ages.

oh, just saw platinum dude outposted me...

Might sound like a stupid question but on HG/SS, can you trade pokemon from the national dex i.e. Hoenn and Sinnoh pokemon from one to the other before you have defeated the Elite Four?

Yes, it's possible to receive Hoenn/Sinnoh Pokemon pre-National Dex.

When I bought my copy of Heart gold I used my platinum game to take the three starters then give them back so I could play gold with all three, it allowed me to trade as soon as prof Oak gave me the pokedex in HG.

Try this thread, I suggest. And as far as I know HGSS should work just fine on the 3DS - nothing really makes it behav differently on the 3DS compared to other Pokemon games. Maybe check the settings you have for the game?
