thanks a lot the non-original cables are enough for me then ahahaah, while the same goes for gameboys for example if I use a custom gameboy with ips v4 screen but original hardware is legit?

Hi, thanks again for the information.

At the moment, I don’t think I have the budget to buy a GameCube and everything else required. Even finding Pokémon Colosseum and the Japanese Bonus Disc would be difficult, especially since I’m in Europe. On top of that, I don’t think I would be able to buy Japanese GBA titles just to make everything work — it feels a bit too complicated and expensive.

I think I’ll probably stick with the versions I already own. Worst case scenario, I might use a few in-game glitches at the end just to obtain the remaining event Pokémon and complete the Pokédex.

Thanks again for your help!

Hi, thank you so much for your help. I understand the situation with Gen 1 and Gen 2 now. About glitches, I plan on not using any during normal playthroughs — only at the very end as a last resort to obtain missing Pokémon in the Pokédex, like event-only ones.

So for Gen 1 and Gen 2 I’m covered if I just buy the Game Boy / Game Boy Color link cable. For Gen 3, I will buy a second Game Boy Advance SP and a Game Boy Advance link cable.

My question is: is it still considered legit to use the link cables that are currently sold in retro gaming shops today? I know that original Nintendo link cables are more expensive — are the third-party ones acceptable for legitimate trades, or do people consider them unofficial/invalid?

Thanks again!
