The transfer process was made easier from Generation III onwards and did not require the use of two systems. How to transfer Pokémon from Generation III to Generation IV
Though FireRed and LeafGreen are remakes of a region introduced in Generation I, we'll class these games as Generation III to keep things simple. With the dawn of Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, FireRed and LeafGreen came changes to Pokémon stats and moves that made them incompatible with the previous two generations of games.
Using unofficial means to transfer Pokémon upwards Just like with the original releases, Japanese and non-Japanese games are not compatible. All players must have their own copy of Red, Blue, Yellow, Gold, Silver, or Crystal on their own console within the Nintendo 3DS family of systems - you cannot trade between your own copy of a Generation I and II game on the same console. Players can trade the exact same way they did on original Game Boy and Game Boy Color systems, only without the need for cables. What about Virtual Console?Īfter their re-release on Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console, the first and second generations of Pokémon games also had the ability to trade between them, even if only between multiple 3DS systems and only through local wireless. Therefore, Pokémon Crystal can only be played on a Game Boy Color or Game Boy Advance console. Note: While Game Boy Advance systems are backwards compatible with both Game Boy and Game Boy Color cartridges, the original Game Boy cannot play Game Boy Color games. Select "Trade" once you've decided on a PokémonĬongratulations, your Generation I Pokémon are now in Generation II!.On both consoles, after each trainer is seated opposite the other, select which Pokémon you'd like to trade.Select "Trade Center" when asked where you want to go.In your Generation I game on Console 2, head to the Cable Club, located on the upper floor of any Pokémon Center, to the far right.Select "Yes" to overwrite your current save file.In your Generation II game on Console 1, head to the Cable Club Time Capsule, located on the upper floor of any Pokémon Center, to the far right.Now that you've got all the right equipment, follow these steps: Remember to read reviews and take caution when purchasing from third parties.įor simplification reasons, we will refer to the console in which your Generation II game (Gold, Silver, Crystal) is inserted as "Console 1" and the console in which your Generation I game (Red, Blue, Yellow) as "Console 2". Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance systems require cables to trade, so here are the types of cables you'll need to trade between Generation I and Generation II games on various hardware. Japanese games are not compatible with non-Japanese games, and will corrupt your save data if you attempt to trade between the two. Players can then "trade through time" as the Time Capsule presents the Generation II game as if it were a Generation I game to your copy of Red, Blue, or Yellow. Players must also have received the Pokédex from Professor Oak in order to trade from Pokémon Red, Blue, or Yellow. The Time Capsule machine is located on the upper floor of the Pokémon Center in Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal, and must be unlocked by meeting Bill in Ecruteak City. While there's no explicit transfer area to bring all of your Pokémon from Red, Blue, and Yellow to Gold, Silver and Crystal, players can still trade between both generations using the Time Capsule feature. How to transfer between Generations I and II Virtual Console versions of Generations I and II were later brought to the Nintendo 3DS family of systems, which made it possible to transfer Pokémon caught in those versions to modern consoles. However, you may still transfer Pokémon between the physical copies of these two generations. Because of the unique way in which stats are calculated, alongside the inability to connect the Game Boy (Color) with the Game Boy Advance, it is impossible to transfer Pokémon from physical copies of Generations I and II past the Game Boy Color, at least not by any official means. The Game Boy and Game Boy Color are home to Pokémon Red, Blue, Yellow, Gold, Silver, and Crystal, with Pokémon Green being released in Japan only.
