National Pokedex Question?

[spike_dylan]

I have sapphire + fire red and collousem+box , I have the national pokedex in fire red and was wondering if I could get it on sapphire with out having access to another gameboy advance(I have only got one and got my GC before the gb player was released), It is a real pain.

I would appreceate any help

Hmm, I am prety sure that you will need to trade with a FireRed/LeafGreen game in order to get your National PokéDex. Check out a place where you can rent video games, such as Blockbuster, you may be able to rent a GBA there.

If you have box, trade your Kanto Pokémon to Box, then the Box Kanto Pokémon to Sapphire, should work.

If you have box, trade your Kanto Pokémon to Box, then the Box Kanto Pokémon to Sapphire, should work.

Unfortunately, that won't work. Trading from FireRed/LeafGreen to Box will get the National Pokédex on Box, but trading them from Box to Ruby/Sapphire will not give you the National Pokédex on Ruby/Sapphire, the Ruby/Sapphire game will just continue to ignore any Pokémon who don't appear in the Hoenn Pokédex, they will not be acknowledged in the Pokédex, and their number will just be displayed as ???.

Oh, okay, but actually their number shouldn't be ???. It will just be blank, as that's how all my Colosseum Pokémon were in Ruby before FR/LG came out and I could get the NationalDex.

The ruby and saphire games were made before they came out with the so called "national dex" so there will not be a way to get it on those games... the other pokemon will just not be numbered like the national dex does

Possibly should have mentioned that i have tried trading using box and traded via collousem and nither of these worked

Yep, sorry, the only way to get the National Dex on R/S is to trade directly to FR/LG.
