Imagine if we could actually get our hands on a distro cart like that, and reverse-engineer it to distribute any Gen. III event.
Will never happen, but hey

That would be fantastic and a really neat way of distributing GEN 3 events.

I guess in theory it could be done with homebrew, it's possible to backup / restore GBA saves using a DS / DS Lite, all you'd have to do is write the pk3 files to the correct place on the save game. Maybe having a menu on the homebrew app where the event Pokemon is chosen, it checks you have space in the party and writes the pk3 to the save game. Easier said than done i know, but not totally unrealistic given what has been done with DS / GBA homebrew over the years.

 

[UnknownRespected]

Nah, that wouldn't be the same way.

You would have to create a DS homebrew that can be sent via download play, which would generate the events the same way Gen. III distro carts do, and broadcast it via HaxxStation to get past the RSA checks. Or if you had Flashme on the receiving DS I guess it could be done without HaxxStation, as long as we have the ability to create homebrew that can send over DS Download Play lol.

It's true it'd be simpler to just skip Download Play and have the distro run directly on a flashcart in the same DS as the GBA game, still. But it'd be really cool to be able to just have a DS running with a flashcart, and people can show up with their DS and their Gen. III game and download the events.

 

[InsaneNutter]

Ah yes i see what your saying there. That would be pretty neat to have all these years later. I could see that been good for a little independent shop selling used games. People can buy the older Pokemon games and download events directly in the shop. Would be pretty nice for gaming events and such too!

Wait, this is currently possible with the DS Download Play? How?

 

[daviddh97]

Thanks for this guys. I was all ready to start today but realized I need firered lol. I only have LeafGreen and Emerald.

 

[wiru]

Hello, thanks for these!

I'm new in injecting Pokemon to saves.
When I open these in PKHex, it was flagged as not legal and the error was something about wondercard.

Anyone has the same issue?

 

[InsaneNutter]

PKHeX does not have built in legality checking for many old Gen 3 events, this does not change the fact the events are genuine however.

For some Gen 3 events PKHeX does have legality checking for the events once migrated to later generations.
