Transporter and bank only work on legitimate games, for unofficial VC, and NDS games you'll have to transfer them to a 3DS game through PKSM https://github.com/FlagBrew/PKSM

Download and install the 3ds Homebrew app "PKSM"

Proof: https://github.com/FlagBrew/PKSM/issues/1055

You can't use Poke Transporter even if you have Crystal Clear on VC. It won't recognize the game. If you really want to transfer your Pokemon and have a different Pokemon game on the system you can use a tool like PKSM and recreate your Pokemon.

In my experience, the best way to cheat in Pokemon is using save editors rather than codes. For hacked 3DS, PKSM is the way to go. For hacked DSi, Pokemon Chest. Both are about the same thing: a combination of Pokemon Bank without needing to connect to the internet, moving pokes between generations, and a savegame editor that can create and edit Pokemon as well as some other stuff in your save. PKSM is the better app since it supports generations 1-7 on 3DS, but Chest runs on a DSi and handles generations 3-5.

You can find out how to install CFW here and get PKSM here. The guide will also have you install Checkpoint which can backup 3DS and DS save files. Cartridges will always show up in the top left corner in Checkpoint though you sometimes have to wait like 20 seconds before they appear for some reason. The save files it backs up go in /3ds/Checkpoint on your SD. If you want to use PkHex to export your Pokemon to files so you can trade them with someone via a chat app, backup, extract what you want to trade, get other ones in exchange, and import them. Then put the save file back and restore it with Checkpoint.

DS Phat or Lite with a DS flashcart (or Action Replay DSi that takes a MicroSD though you also need ARDSI Menu to handle DLDI auto patching or track down the appropriate DLDI patch and patch the nds file for NDS Savegame Manager yourself), wifi your DS can connect to, an FTP server with write access accessible through that wifi, and NDS Savegame Manager. Does NOT work on DSi or 3DS since they turn off the cartridge slot if you're booted into a flashcart and then eject it. Use above CFW methods for those consoles. The FTP server can be any PC FTP server program, or a phone file manager app like Solid Explorer that includes a builtin FTP server function. The wifi can be a phone hotspot with no password. Copy the nds and ini files to the root of your flashcart's SD card, and edit the ini to have the correct IP, port, username and password for the FTP server. If the FTP server has anonymous (no password) access, put anonymous for the user and anything that looks like an email for the password ([email protected] for instance). There is also a pdf with some additional help that comes with NDS Savegame Manager. This method sucks because of complexity of setup, but at least a lot of people already have R4 cards. Avoid it if you can.

Try this: https://github.com/AdmiralCurtiss/nds-savegame-manager

This is the tool, though you'll need a DS flashcart to run it from. I know you'll need either a slot 2 device or wifi and any FTP server program to backup saves. I'm not sure whether it can restore them without this from the flashcart's SD though.

For DS (Requires flash cart)For DSi (requires Modding)For 3DS (Requires Modding)

on DS you have this tool available, but I haven't personally used it so can't say much about it beyond that I've seen it recommended multiple times and it seems to work for people: https://github.com/AdmiralCurtiss/nds-savegame-manager

You can use a flashcart and homebrew. Here is an example: https://github.com/AdmiralCurtiss/nds-savegame-manager

You need to purchase an R4 flashcard and then put thisNDS Savegame Manager on it. Then you can dump your retail save to the SD card in the R4. Then make backups of your save in the cloud or wherever you prefer.

There's also a DS app called Savegame Manager but you need either an original DS or DS Lite and a DS flashcart to use it.

If you can't get GBA Backup Tool to work you can try Savegame Manager. Hopefully that works a bit better for ya.

To manage your save file for Emerald and FireRed, use the DS homebrew DS Savegame Manager. It will also work for save games for all GBA and DS games.
