For any Pokémon Shuffle players, the Darkrai escalation battle is live.  Also new main and extra stages were added.

OK, I may be yelled at for this, but I no longer play Pokemon on consoles so here goes!  Does anyone have a good source for Pokemon X / Y and Omega Ruby / Alpha Sapphire ROMs? 

I'm getting legit versions of the games, but I actually play with ROMs so I can keep my saved games around regardless of Nintendo's forced upgrade cycle. Been burned too many times with random hardware failing or getting obsoleted.

Gonna have to ask elsewhere dude if you want links, since forum rules and so on. The same places that usually have good roms will likely have them, but I dunno where you'd find a decent 3ds emu yet.

Don't get how you would have that much hardware issues with them, though. My ds lite still works entirely fine if I wanted to run it, minor hinge damage aside.

As far as I know, and ignoring the legal questions, 3DS emulation isn't even a thing.  The hardware can be emulated on a single emulator and some homebrew can be run on it, but nothing commercial is even possible at this point, much less playable.  I've been out of the scene for quite a while, though, so I don't know if my sources are also behind the times.

I hear about hardware failures every once in a while, but it's usually dodgy buttons or the like.  I really don't know what Nintendo's forced upgrade cycle could be referring to.  I've never had a Nintendo console go into a failure mode, not even my NES which was notoriously obnoxious when it came to reading cartridges.  That said, I did pick up a Powersave external a month or two ago, though.  Its back-up functionality seems rather interesting to me, but once I did that, it's mostly just been collecting dust.

If I want to play my favorite Pokemon games I'd have to lug around multiple pieces of hardware (GBA, 3DS) with unique charging cables and batteries which slowly wear out.  That's the upgrade cycle - the stuff doesn't stop working per se, but when a player needs multiple pieces of hardware for the games it has the same effect. Nintendo hardware itself mostly works, aside from my Pokemon Ruby and some buttons, but it's just too much hassle to use it regularly. And some buttons are important. :/

Yeah, 3DS emulation is coming slowly. Citra seems like it's getting somewhere but not playable yet. I've lost touch with places that have good ROMs aside from Emuparadise so I'll need a little lead time anyway.

A ds or a ds lite (but not a dsi, that would be silly) with a flashcart would cover everything except for trading and gbc/3ds games, and except for gen 1, everything else that I can think of (diamond up to alpha sapphire) has a ds version, so you could just take the 3ds and a collection of ds/3ds cards around instead. Maybe add in an emulator on a smartphone if you really wanted to play RBY.

3DS+carts, phone, wallet, keys+misc = more pockets than a typical outfit has, sadly.  Plus, I don't think there's anyway to get save games out of carts?  If there is that would be awesome and I'd definitely go the carts/3DS route until 3DS emulation gets better.

Such things do exist.  Except they are vary rarely if ever commercially made due to legal issues.  Really all it needs is something that converts the connection types. And then software plugins that know how to tell each particular card to dump/overwrite the save data.  I know those carts have protection but as far as I know it's more concerned about the game being played on something that isn't a game boy than just memory data being read and written.  Probably have to look somewhere like ebay to find one.

SKREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

It's the thing I first thought of when smartphones became a thing. Now you pretty much will be able to go on a Pokemon adventure. Maybe people will be able to set up IRL Pokemon gyms with local Pokemon? Trading international Pokemon with tourists?

I... might finally have to buy a new smartphone. My current one is pretty crusty, still running Android 2.x IIRC...

Hey guys which Pokemon game is the most valuable in terms of coming in touch with the specifics of the series? Unfortunately, I can't afford a 3DS with the game for it at the moment, and I think it'd be great to find out if I'm going to like Pokemon games before the buying.

I'd recommend any of the GBA or DS games (aside from Black and White 2), really. They're highly formulaic, so picking any game wouldn't mean you'd miss out on much. I'd personally recommend Platinum or the Gen II remakes, HeartGold or SoulSilver.
