    I noticed there were many n00blets wondering how to;

    - Be lazy and use cheats to complete Pokemon Pearl.

    -Getting to the 3rd gym and saving then loosing data.

    Now if you follow my guide correctly , you can be the pixelated Pokemon League champion and save like you were actually using a real NDS, OMFG!

    Now; I won't provide a link on where to download it because it's already on the site.

    Now lets get into it shall we?

    Step one;
    I CAN'T STRESS THIS ENOUGH BUT, DOWNLOAD WINRAR BEFORE YOU DOWNLOAD POKEMON DIAMOND OR POKEMON PEARL.
    If you don't know what WINrar is please refer to Wikipedia because I have a life that doesn't include me going on about a simple unzipping program.

    If you do or don't have NO$GBA (The latest version) on your computer, DO IT NOW.
    When your Pokemon Diamond/Pearl file is successfully on your computer, load up the game and you will get a message.
    Now.

    Under Options;

    Click the Emulation Tab and Make sure you have the following settings;

    'Emulation Speed, LCD Refresh'
    Unlimited MHz-Disaster
    (Because your constantly moving it emulates the closes speed of the actual game.)
    (Try UMHD 10% If you feel it's too slow for you)

    'GBA Mode'
    VGA (poppy bright)

    'NDS cartridge Backup Media'
    512k Flash.

    'Solar Sensor Level'
    Bright Sunlight.

    'Sound Output Mode'
    Digital Mono.

    Sound Desired Sample Rate'
    Low 10khz.

    MultiBoot Normal/Burst Displays
    Fast/Fast

    Then you return to Options -> Save Options.
    Reset the ROM and enjoy.
    (Because there wasn't no$gba that supported quality sound, it will be "choppy" though out the game, meaning, every beat there is always a pause.
    (The newest version I suppose supports Wi-Fi.)
    When I try to do it my game freezes up but I dunnno.)

    CHEATING ON POKEMON PEARL

    Okay, now this is a Step by Step procedure.
    The very first thing to do is Google "POKESAV download"
    Then you need to download 'nos$gba to vba converter"

    Now;

    Load your Saved/New Game.
    Save IN GAME.
    Exit no$gba.

    1. Unzip your Converter and under 'Configure' select your BATTERY folder.

    2. 'Convert File'

    3. Rename the original converted file the same name as your sav file.

    Meaning you would copy and paste the title of the rom into the converted sav file so no$gba notices the file as a Valid sav file.

    Open POKESAV and then open the Converted file.

    Just input the Pokemon you want to use/Poketech app's, events, w/e.

    Save over the file, and load your game.

    (NOTE: You have to repeat the convert steps if you wish to apply more cheats.)

    Pokemon Emerald tips.

    Here are some answered tips for those needy that I saw around the forum;

    -ALWAYS PLAY POKMEON EMERALD ON A VBA. (Because you don't have to worry about speeds and managing save files because a VBA is a self save type of Emulation.
    -Use SUPERCHEATS for all Pokemon E/FR/LG codes.
    - Set your save type to 126k if you wish to continue to play after the elite 4. (Applies also to FR/LG.)

    Ok, but how do I load the game? I mean, I can make it work, I can save it, but if I want to load, I only get a (two) black screen(s). ???
