PKM Colleseum and XD?

[wow_wow]

Hey I play PKM Colleseum and XD on Wii. I just wondering, can it connect to DS (have a GBA game) and send PKM into that like Gamecube and GBA before :D
Thank you guy!

No, the Gamecube games are incompatible with the DS as far as I know, as they had been made before the DS, and as the Gamecube was never able to communicate with the DS, the games never did either. You'll need a GBA/GBA SP, GBA game and a GBA-GCN cable to transfer Pokemon to Colo and XD - the only way I'm afraid.

Exactly. Neither Col/XD or the GBA games were designed with wireless functions in mind, so thye could not possibly use them. In fact, no GBA games can link/battle using the DS's wireless capabilities.
You are going to need:

• A GBA (SP)
• A GameCube - GBA link cable. (Colliseum should have contained one)

That's because the game itself can't connect to the DS either as well as the Gamecube, as I and Archer said....
Anyway - it ain't possible.

i loved xd! i used to use the cloning cheat in emerald, trade them off xd, clone 'em, and trade em back on.
on topic, the above people are correct, and theres no way of connecting your gba to a wii either(unless some cunning 3rd party develeoper has made a usb compatible cable........)

... but it does connect. Using the GBA-GC connector does the trick - one end connects to the BGA, and the other fits into the GameCube contoller slots, which the Wii has (how else would it be backwards-compatible with the Gamecube contollers?)

Hey, question: Could I download a ROM and then put that on a GBA flashcard and connect it with Colosseum? I've had this idea for a long time, and I would like to know if it's actually possible.

And also, is it possible to catch Shadow Pokémon you've missed later on?

 

[Dave-o-rama]

First Question: Probably not. The GBA wouldnt be able to handle playing colosseum on it.

Second Question: Yeah, you can catch them, just battle miror B.

No, ROM do not work (just asks you tho insert the GBA game - tried with a Rom game I happened to have).

In Colosseum, you'll eventually meet up with the person you missed snagging the Pokemon off, usually after the main storyline. So you can try again and again until you get it.
In XD, Miror B ends up with the Shadow Pokemon that you've missed.

Thanks for answering my questions without spoilers. :)

I like Miror B.'s afro =D

But hey, I now have another question, but it's not really about Colosseum anymore... I'm sorry to go off-topic, but, um, is there any other way to evolve Pokémon that only evolve through trading with GameShark codes? (Without catching the evolved version in the wild, which will make you have two Pokémon?)

Actually, you can connect with a Flashcart with a ROM. After connecting the game to the GCN, start up the flashcart, and load the Pokemon game. DO NOT PUSH ANY BUTTONS. It will work just fine.

So I should first connect, then start the GBA, then start the GC, and then go to the trade option in Colosseum?

They are referring to the GBA games then. You'll have to beat the 'main' storyline of Colosseum to be able to trade, same for XD.
You can trade via the Wii - just after the main storyline is beaten.

*Tip*

You can use the GBA-GCN cable with a GBA and Wii, as the Wii has the required ports. It's a confuzzling conversation and I just thought I'd clear that up! :)
